Tarot Decks

I'm in need of finding good collage tarot decks for professional readings for clients. I find that the collage decks are eye candy and can help in unfolding a story with my readings. Are there any suggestions?

From Joanna Powell Colbert's newsletter: I am over-the-moon thrilled to let you know about the new tarot deck I’ve been working on for the past three years, the Herbcrafter’s Tarot! I created it with my friend Latisha Guthrie of Herbmother.com. I know tarot, Latisha knows herbs. We collaborated on the content, I did the artwork, and Latisha wrote the book. Together we’ve created something unique and beautiful! The deck and book set will be released by US Games in the Spring of 2019. Here’s what it’s all about: The Herbcrafter’s Tarot celebrates the handicrafts, tools, and time-honored folk skills related to herbs, trees, flowers, and other plants that share …

The Marigold Tarot by Amrit Brar went live. Its only been up for a few hours and its already more than 50% funded. I got lucky and managed to snag an early bird pledge. "On a whole, the Marigold Tarot has always been about creating a tarot deck in a style that my friends and I wanted to use. That meant illustrating a wealth of skeletons, flowers, and plants, and partnering all of them with the clothing and jewelry I grew up surrounded by in a Punjabi household. To top it all off, the whole thing will be produced in a combination of black and white printing partnered with metallic gold ink." -Amrit Brar I love her Shitty Horoscopes, and have been eagerly …

I thought I’d yammer a bit about my deck categories. I hope it is interesting or fun to somebody. (And it might be my topic for my tarot society presentation in July . . .) I’m at 379 decks in my collection, which includes tarots, oracles, and historical reproduction playing cards, as of this minute, with 7 of those being on preorder. (Can’t resist a Llewellyn coupon . . .) I love organizing things (on paper at least), so I’ve categorized my decks as systems and themes. Systems are tarots and oracles that follow a definite pattern, like minchiates, 72 angels, or 64 I Ching hexagrams. Themes are more about things that aren’t a set system, like …

>:( >:( >: >:( So.. recently I have purchased two new decks to enlarge my very modest colelction - namely the Classic llywelyn tarot and the llywelyn tarot ( the cletic inspired one) I got both and was very happy especially with the second one ( even thought the classical started growing on me as well)- All was well until I have decided to start shuffling them a bit.. It wasn't more then 3 min into the shuffling that I saw some cards already had dints- some to a point where it was obvious.. even after trimming the second deck and reshuffling some cards again had dints- and I don't shuffle agressively - in comparison my Robin Wood deck which I have been …

I know the creator has been working on this for a long time. I think she has a really unique artistic style. They had a failed Kickstarter previously but looks like this one is going much better!

I was wondering if anyone here ordered a Greenwood Tarot Handbook from Chesca Potter before she disappeared? If so could you let me know if it is different from what was made available on her website (and that now is available on Mi-Shells blog.) On her website it says: (source) I have searched fairly thoroughly online and can't find anything different to the apparently summarised version on her website.

It wasn't really gothic or a horror deck or anything, just like looking at a deck through a London fog. Basically different shades of gray. Ring a bell for anyone?

Any thoughts on or experiences with the Gilded Tarot deck?

I believe I saw, here, pictures of a Tarot deck that is either in pre-production, not yet completed, about to be released or already in the market (but not mainstream). For the life of me I cannot remember its name. I do remember that it had completely modern images of people doing ordinary, mundane, every day things like going to the beach. It's the not The Every Day Enchantment Tarot by Poppy. Neither is it her other deck. It's a totally 21st Century portrayal and not remembering what it is, is driving me crazy. Can anyone help?

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wilderwoventarot/the-wilderwoven-tarot a lovely nature based deck, happy to back it. Look close at the cards, I'm quite impressed at the silhouettes he chose to represent each card. Pledges are shown in Canadian dollars, the cost in other currency will be shown when you pledge, but before you click submit.

I don’t know any details yet but this was shared in the ‘For love of cards’ Facebook group. I personally hope the artist reworks some of the cards. I sold my deck because there were several cards that just did not appeal to me or even seem to go with the rest of the deck. They were so sketchy, and well.. not nearly as pretty as the rest. (You can for instance compare the emperor/war with the empress and you get what I mean. And just naming the emperor ‘war’... :o )

Political discussion is strictly forbidden on this site, so I intend this as a philosophical commentary or discussion if others chime in. Tarocchi came from Renaissance Italy and in those early cards we see light skin and blond hair often depicted. The Northern Italians were generally lighter than the darker skin and hair in South Italy. Was it political / status at all? I have no idea. These were the noble families of Northern Italy. I don't know if the artists painted them lighter for status or if they really were blond with light skin. RWS came along in the 1900s and although the Occult revival gave serious credence to the spirituality of India …

I found this deck here in the deck library and fell in love, so straight into my Amazon cart it went. However, I can't find any posts here about it, and very few reviews in general. The one by Benebell Wen waxes rhapsodic about the art but very delicately insinuates that it is not a deck to read with. I find interesting the way some of the cards play with the RWS imagery --for example, the Ten of Pentacles makes the old man the center of attention, while the happy family is far, faraway in the background, and the Four of Wands makes me think of the Tower right before lightning strikes, or after things are put back together, if you prefer. Other car…

So far, my favorite deck <3 <3 <3 <3 I love how deep the readings can be <3 ^-^ At first, when I saw the cards, the illustrations didn't appeal to me. They didn't look like a deck I'd want... But it appeared in a few readings, until one day, I realized the potential of the deck! So I bought the deck and IMMEDIATELY, the first card, the very first reading I gave to myself. It was exactly what I needed, what i wanted to know, and I felt so in tune with it =') It's just sooooo wow... It's like the deck knows what to say =') I'm in love with it <3 and I started appreciating the illustrations more <3 I don't read from the book unless I feel like…

Hallo! What Animal Tarot decks do you know? I mean only Tarot, not oracles, and only with animals (different animals! not only cats or dogs etc...) And without the participation of human figures. I want to get a tarot deck with animals, but nothing that I found I like ... Maybe I missed something interesting? Here's everything I found on the internet: The Animal Wisdom Tarot Anima Mundi Tarot The Wild Unknown Tarot Animal Totem Tarot Spiritsong Tarot Otherkin Tarot Tarot of the Animal Lords (Giannini, Lo Scarabeo) The Animism Tarot (Cheung) …

A new deck up on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/900943650/the-children-of-litha-tarot-deck. I love the title and theme!

I know, I know, tarot deck choices are just for you and you alone, but seriously, there is so much wonderful art, it is so hard to choose! I am wondering if any of you have had experience with these deck as to how they read, comparison to the RWS meanings, and your general reviews. These are the choices I am currently looking at: The Star Tarot (2017) Ostara Tarot (2017) Green Witch Tarot (2003) Are there any other decks that you like better which you might suggest? I am currently using the Shadowscapes Tarot and loving it! Thanks!

For me, it's all Majors, Tarot For Cats. Love just gazing at the HUGE cards, LOVE the artwork!

How do you spot if a rare oop deck is an original or fake? And which places/sellers you prefer and trust to get these decks from?

Idea for a deck library album or tag - CottageCore / cozy decks. Includes a range of themes but all should have a warm, cozy, earthy, friendly aesthetic. For starters I think I'd include: Green Witch Tarot Forest of Enchantment Everyday Witch Tarot ? Badgers Forest Tarot in Wonderland Wild Medicine Herbal deck Pythia Botanica Oracle Claude Burdel Tarot de Marseilles

Just saw that we're going to have another Wizards Tarot deck early next year by Barbara Moore and Mieke Janssens. I love the artwork. It looks fantastic and I cannot wait to get it! 😍After Corinne Kenner's Wizards Tarot went out of print, I'm glad there will be another beautiful wizards deck available. One question though - can they not come up with another name? Or add something to it to differentiate it from the other wizard decks? 🤔 Here is a link to the artist's portfolio, where she has some cards https://www.hireanillustrator.com/i/portfolio/mieke-janssens/#lg=1&slide=13 Her artwork is very beautiful. https://www.amazon.com/Wizards-Taro…
