The Green Witch Tarot
I have had this beautiful, gentle and nurturing deck for a while. Lately I’ve been drawn to work more closely with it. The Green Witch Tarot is one of the decks I recommend to people who embrace any form of nature-based practice who are looking to incorporate tarot. It is also one of my first suggestions for anyone seeking guidance that doesn’t want to be confronted with potentially triggering imagery. The older I get and the more I see and experience, the more important I find these types of decks. Decks that don’t dismiss difficult topics yet don’t feel the need to overwhelm you with dark and confronting imagery. Instead…

The Ark Animal Tarot and Oracle Deck
If you really connect with the Animal Kingdom or you’d really like to work with Spirit Animals and Animal Totems then The Ark Animal Tarot and Oracle Deck Special Deluxe Box, which includes a full tarot deck plus 71, yes 71, animal oracle cards is well worth considering. It’s a well thought out and very generous set that can be used in so many ways. The Ark Animal Tarot and Oracle Deck In a collection that includes 149 cards it’s hard to know where to begin. I’ve decided to simplify the process by beginning with the Tarot and then moving on to the Oracle. Yet, as I say that, I…

Bonefire Tarot
Yesterday as I sat at the beach watching the waves rolling in and contemplating my future direction and goals, “Bonefire” kept popping into my head. Today it did the same. I had no idea why but I listened. So, despite the fact I had a new deck arrive today, I listened to the call and grabbed my Bonefire Tarot off the shelf. Within minutes of opening the book I understood why. More on that later. For now, if you’re not sure if tarot is for you, or if you’re looking for a tool to help you on your own unique spiritual path, then the Bonefire Tarot could well offer you…

The Tarot of Trees
The Tarot of Trees is promoted as an “80-card colourful and whimsical tarot deck that features classical tarot symbolism through the theme of trees.” And, that it is. But to me, it is best described as a hug deck. I find it calming. I have other decks I feel really connected to because I receive a flood of messages from them almost instantly, whereas this deck reminds me to sit back, relax, and take my time. Sometimes, probably more than I allow, this is just what I need. I doubt I’m the only one. Looking through these cards is the indoor equivalent of sitting on a rock in the bush…

The Muse Tarot
As it’s name suggests The Muse Tarot aims to connect you with your Muse in order to spark and inspire creativity. It’s also a reminder that creative endeavours open up this connection. Above all it’s a bright, colourful, eclectic deck that speaks on many different levels. Even though I love The Light Seers Tarot by the same creator, I wasn’t overly drawn to The Muse Tarot when I first saw it online. But, something made me buy it anyway and I haven’t looked back. I like it so much more than I expected. In fact it drew me into its world on my very first flick through. For some reason…

Journey of the Sacred Bee Tarot
If you’re looking for a deck to help keep you on track and moving forward in your own truth then Journey of the Sacred Bee Tarot could be the deck you have been looking for. This deck and the the matching oracle, Wisdom of the Sacred Bee, are independently published by Kelly Burton from Sacred Soul Productions, but fortunately they were published this year (2021), so they’re easy to source. I was excited as soon as I discovered the existence of Journey of the Sacred Bee Tarot because I’ve had a strong affinity with bees for a long time now and no, not just because of their association with my…

Oriens Animal Tarot
This animal themed deck is completely different to any of the others I own – and I own a few. Without including oracle decks seven come to mind, (Animals Divine Tarot, Animal Totem Tarot, Animal Wisdom Tarot, Ark Animal Tarot, Black Cats Tarot, Crow Tarot and Spiritsong Tarot). Largely because the animals are presented in celestial settings, the Oriens Animal Tarot is much darker in colouring for one. I’ve heard some people say the combination makes the animals hard to see. I don’t find that to be the case. Rather, unless inappropriate for the card’s message, I find the animals pop clearly and with good lighting they really come to…

The Intuitive Night Goddess Tarot
As soon as I saw the hands on the inside of The Intuitive Night Goddess Tarot box I felt connected. That might sound strange but a) I have a thing about hands and b) when I looked at the box as pictured below, I thought yes the power of the Universe is in our hands. This is not the first thing that usually comes to mind when I’m looking through my tarot decks but I think it should be now. Most decks have a sales pitch of sorts on the back of the packaging. On this box there’s no card images. Instead it feels as if it’s all about the…

Runic Tarot
As the name suggests, the Runic Tarot combines runes with tarot. Whilst it’s true that many decks incorporate runes, (Haindl Tarot, Pearls of Wisdom, and Light Seers Tarot to name just a few), the Runic Tarot is different in that it incorporates various rune systems. Thus the runes are a focal part of the cards. I pre-ordered this deck because I’ve wanted to increase my knowledge about runes for a while and this seemed a great way to do so. Now that it’s arrived, I look forward to letting the learning begin. The Runic Tarot Deck These cards are very dark in colouring and so at first they didn’t draw…

Guardian Tarot
This deck, wow, I don’t know where, or how, to begin. I first saw the Guardian Tarot on You Tube and I thought hmmm creepy. But, I couldn’t stop looking at it. I found it hauntingly beautiful yet I couldn’t imagine how I could work with it. Yet, try as I might, I couldn’t turn away. So, before long it ended up doing the shopping cart dance – I put it in, I took it out, I put it in, I took it out, then finally I put it in and clicked place order. And that brings me back to wow. The Guardian Tarot speaks to me in a way…
