The Wolf Pack Tarot, previously a black and white illustrated semi-tarot deck, has now been published in a full-colour 78 card edition picturing illustrations of the wolf in its nature world. The keywords, listed at the top of each card, are reputed to be all you need to understand the deck.

This would not be a deck that would attract experienced readers, however for the novice readers or those interested in self-reflection and self-improvement it is quite acceptable.

The cards have simplistic drawings and is muted in its coloration. It is all wolf images in seemingly real life situations and this gives the cards a naturalistic down-to-earth quality. Children and youth seem interested in the animalistic nature of the cards, and they would also be appropriate for those situations when someone has an aversion or fear of tarot thinking it akin to black magic.

They seem more like animal oracle cards rather than tarot as they don't follow the traditional format of Major, minors and pips. All of the cards seem to be a major in their own right with such titles as Gifts, Obstacles, Respect Entrapment, Self-reliance. There are 2 cards that are unique to this deck, a Male Alpha wolf, and a Female Alpha wolf. You can either use these as a significator, or within the reading.

Robert Petro does not include a LWB, but instead there is an extra card with a 10 card spread instruction. You don't need instructions on the cards, as all the cards have the meanings printed right on the cards which makes it valuable for beginners, and especially attractive to children and youth. Of course, like any cards and their meanings, this is only a guidline and once you get used to the cards, let your intuition guide you on those interpretations
