Tarot of Oneness
This is a magical deck. Decks like Tarot of the Hidden Realm and the Morgan Greer Tarot allow you to get up close and personal with the people on the cards. Tarot of Oneness gets you up close and personal with yourself and what is going on around you. It gives you a first hand perspective that does not allow you to shy away from what is in front of you. The Cards Tarot of Oneness is an 84-card RWS inspired tarot deck with minimal reference to gender. So much so that two 6 Lovers cards are included in the deck to allow users to choose the card that feels…

Superlunaris Tarot
Okay, so let the gushing begin. This is an amazing deck that I connected with instantly. The artwork is incredible and you can feel the love and intention that went in to creating the Superlunaris Tarot. When I asked the cards to introduce themselves to me, their answer in part was, “I want to ground you in a sense of joy and personal freedom … I want to help you express yourself as who you are, just as I am an expression of my creators.” And oh how it succeeds. I reached out to the creators, Jess and Jacob and Jess’s response was so warm and full of joy and…

The Starchild Tarot Akashic
The Starchild Tarot Akashic, not to be confused with The Starchild Tarot by the same creator, aims to help us explore “the ancient traditions of the Tarot through a multidimensional journey of Consciousness and awakening.” This is a deck for self-exploration, self-expansion, and self-understanding. As you look through the photos I’ve included you’ll see this deck portrays each card in a unique way. That’s why I was keen to add it to my collection. The Starchild Tarot Akashic Cards From the outset, The Fool, here titled Starseed and pictured as the opening featured image, takes a different approach. She’s not depicted blindly stepping off a cliff. Instead, the Starseed is…

The Ink Witch Tarot
The Ink Witch Tarot is an eclectic deck that draws inspiration from the Rider Waite Smith tarot, Greek, Egyptian and Norse Mythology, Arthurian legends, European folk stories and fairy tales, and the magic to be found in every day life and experiences. It combines all of these ideas, yet it feels like a coherent, well thought out, modern deck that manages to add new viewpoints and ideas whilst still honouring tarot traditions. The Ink Witch Tarot Deck I love the ink and watercolour artwork and the clever use of warm and cool grey tones. For a long time this has been one of my favourite colour palettes. It definitely contributed…

The Sasuraibito Tarot
The Sasuraibito Tarot is a contemporary deck that stands out for all the right reasons. It’s not different just for the sake of being different. It’s a powerful healing deck that encourages you to let go of anything that you hold on to purely for appearances. The message that shines through when I work with this deck The Sasuraibito Tarot is to seek who you are not who you, or others, think you should be. The Sasuraibito Tarot Deck Stasia Burrington, the deck’s creator, says this deck was inspired by the Rider Waite Smith system, contemporary living, and Japanese and Buddhist ideas. These influences are present in the artwork and…

Radiant Wisdom Tarot
The Radiant Wisdom Tarot was my first foray into indie decks and it holds a special place in my heart because my children bought it for me. In the “About the Author” section it says ‘She enjoys transforming the mysterious into the obvious and Tarot is one of her favourite tools for doing this.’ Therefore it came as no surprise to me that I was drawn to this deck. We share the same intention and the Radiant Wisdom Tarot serves this purpose well. It’s a clear and uplifting deck that presents simple, accessible imagery that feels user-friendly and non-threatening without compromising the power or scope of the messages available. The…

The Wandering Moon Tarot
I first saw this minimalistic black and white deck whilst watching Scorched Earth Tarot on YouTube. Having seen only a few cards, I paused the video and went in search of it. I was pleasantly surprised to discover it was an Indie deck designed by an Australian and shipped from Australia. Often times, living in Australia means the shipping on Indie decks is nearly as much, if not more in some cases, as the deck itself. Not in the case of The Wandering Moon Tarot. Yay!!! The Wandering Moon Tarot Deck This original deck is designed to be read intuitively. The creator wants you to position yourself in the card.…

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…

Wisdom of the Sacred Bee Oracle
The Wisdom of the Sacred Bee Oracle is the oracle deck that aligns with the Journey of the Sacred Bee Tarot and I feel they really do complement each other. And as with the tarot deck, a portion of each sale goes to The Bee Conservancy organisation. The creator, Kelly Burton, invites you to “Dive into a journey through the elements of fire, water, air, earth, and aether (Spirit) with the bees as your Spirit guides.” It’s a colourful trip. The Wisdom of the Sacred Bee Oracle Deck The Wisdom of the Sacred Bee Oracle is a colourful collage deck that utilises elemental energies to share its messages. As someone…

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…
