Tarot Decks

Spotted this on Kickstarter! It's interesting! I was puzzled about why the goal was so low (just $500) but apparently this is a reprint of a pre-existing deck — you can buy it currently here, though the price is about $2 more than the cost of the Kickstarter deck: http://store.wyngdlyon.com/horror-comic-book-tarot-deck/ It seems like a fun concept, and a good way to learn more about the golden age of horror comics, which is kind of a storied era among comics fans. The kickstarter images don't do the cards justice, but the ones on the store site are a little better: However, the creator told me on KS t…

i'm sort of wondering if there's a collector's advice thread floating around here anywhere, or if anyone else would be interested in starting one? (I joined the tarot collectors forum but it seems a bit advanced and updates rarely.) I sometimes feel like i'm completely clueless when it comes to discerning what decks are valuable and why. For instance, I just apparently lucked out and found a $65 copy of the III Millennium on ebay (a deck I've been kind of obsessed with since @Saturn Celeste suggested it as a good deck for me a while back). And the seller seems legit, but I know this deck is selling for upwards of $400 and $500 elsewhere, so I'm fee…

For those of you with Kindle Unlimited, I found they have the big book for the Crow Tarot offered to read for free on phone, PC or Kindle or other devices. If you don't have Kindle Unlimited, there's a free trial going on right now for 99 cents for 60 days if anyone is interested. 🙂 I thought I'd rush over here and post to let people know in case anyone is interested in a great opportunity. ETA: I just looked at the ad again on FB and it says it's a 60 day trial, not 30. Even better, huh? You don't have to be on FB to get the offer, though. Here's the link to the book: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SPHJ9YQ?pd_rd_i=B07SPHJ9YQ&ref_=dbs…

The Barbara Walker in a Tin is new to me. I have an old Barbara Walker somewhere but I never paid any attention to it. I do have some questions, though, and with the condition of my eyes right now, I can't read the little booklet very well. First question: Is this deck a Thoth clone? I see she's named her minors similarly to Thoth but using different yet similar key words. Second question: This isn't really a question. Just a tentative observation by me. This seems to be a deck dealing with the Sacred Feminine and I like that. Am I right that it is? I'm finding that getting some new decks is actually adding a r…

Stumbled on this by accident, and it's already in my pre-order cart LOL. It isn't even my taste of artwork, but it's Golden Girls, so I have to have it "The Golden Girls Tarot Cards are based on the simple structure of the classic Rider-Waite tarot deck--Dorothy, Rose, Blanche, and Sophia are each given their own suit. This deck also comes with some basic (and Golden Girls-centric) instructions on how to kick-start your career in tarot reading. And hey: if your future, as ordained by these cards, ain't looking so bright--just turn on one of your favorite episodes of The Golden Girls to whittle away the time with everybody's favorite foursome." It soun…

Happy news 😀

I got it a couple of months ago, and I am completely in love with the art. I've owned many other decks but I've not always resonated with them. This one was amazing. I dont have a very good camera so I am going to link to a youtube video I found so you ppl can see the cards. The colors are much more alive than what you can see in the video.

This is a deck new to me, like the Zillich is. It's a really lovely little deck with its muted colors and wildlife, white sage, and---cougars! I love cougars. This deck uses cougars as the Page, King and Queen of Swords. The King is a leopard for some reason. I haven't read the booklet yet so maybe there's a reason she's given. River otters are the Courts of the suit of Cups, Wands are Pussywillows, Swords are----swords. lol Pentacles are elephants. The Wands courts are raptors. The pips are partially illustrated but beautifully done. The first card I saw is the Fool and it looks like a baby coyote to me which is extremely appropriate to my concept of the Fool. …

Little Fang[/member] started our awesome TT&M Deck Library tonight. http://library.thetarotforum.com/ Once we get a handle on it, members can submit images too but there will be guides so it's not open for everyone yet. Little Fang will discuss it further. This thread is to keep track of the decks that are up now so we don't have repeats.

Hello, I’m new to tarot and learning and absorbing as much as I can. I’ve just meditated on a question, asking my new deck (the New Mythic Tarot) if pursuing a greater spirituality/deeper understanding of tarot was the right thing. I pulled one card to see if I could interpret what the deck was telling me. I pulled The Hierophant and now I have goosebumps.

Hi everyone. Just wanted to know if anyone has ever had an experience like this. A couple years ago, I came across the Dark Grimoire Tarot. I liked the artwork on the box, so I said "ok, I'll give it a try". When I got it home and went through the deck, it made me so uneasy that I had to put it away for a couple of days before I could even look at it again, Around that time, I started having a bit of bad luck (nothing life changing, just minor annoyances). While I can't attribute it to the deck itself, I wonder if my negative feelings toward it ( and my anger at myself for wasting 25 bucks) caused more negativity to gather around me. Ultimately, I ended up throwing t…

Hi there, I looking tried looking for the guide book of tarot of sexual magic online for a long time... i am in no luck finding it. If any of you have that book, can you just take pictures of the English pages and post it here. It would be really helpful. I am doing this reading analysis with a friend outside this forum. she used this deck and can't find the guide book. many cards are not even close to RWS so we are kind stuck. You help is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, all! I've been thinking lately about decks that are "one-card wonders" for me — where there are certain cards I relate to extremely strongly, or fall in immediate love with, but can't bring myself to splurge on the whole deck for because the overall design/art/them/whatever just isn't quite there for me. Examples for me include: - the 10 of Swords from the Venetian Tarot: This stole my breath the first time I saw it but the rest of the deck just has never clicked for me. - The three of swords from the Wooden Tarot: I love this card but never fell in love with the rest of the deck the same way The Ostara Tarot: I…

I have a few trimmed decks that have only the art, where I was able to trim away all letters and numbers. I find I really like working with decks with only the images. It causes the brain to use different circuitry when there are no language cues present, and causes the brain to internalize patterns in new ways that simply don't occur when letters and numbers can be seen. Even after working with tarot for 20+ years, I find myself "seeing them better" with art only. However, trimming presents other issues. It's time consuming, and I'm not a pro at it. My trimmed decks are beautiful but they don't shuffle quite as well as commercially cut/edged decks. And even …

Greetings, A I have the opportunity to purchase the first edition at a fair price, but it is steep. I heard the Monstaro tarot (very cute!) is going to a 2nd edition KS, but cannot get any info. Do you have word on this?

I didn't find any thread about this deck only. I like this deck a lot. I just found out that their first edition (regular size) has been sold out. Therr will be a new edition, arriving within a month. The very good thing is that it will be silk matte lamination (1st ed had matte lamination). But what I don't like is that the reverse will have a frame. https://www.instagram.com/p/B1y22I9nr64 https://www.taroteca-studio.com Katie

Some decks just don't get that much attention, they fly under the radar, don't get hyped. Everyone is oohing over a Bohemian Gothic or a Wild Unknown, and this deck is left in the corner unloved. So what's your favourite underrated deck? I really like the Courtney Davis Celtic. I love his art and it's a beautiful deck, it was the first (and so far only) unillustrated minors deck I got on with in any way. But compared to it's illustrious stablemates like the Alchemical and the Greenwood, it's got relatively little attention and you used to be able to pick it up second hand for peanuts.

https://shop.micahulrich.com/product/the-flux-arcana-the-complete-deck So the full deck isn't out yet but he's made the Major Arcana for sale and it looks pretty fetching. https://shop.micahulrich.com/product/the-flux-arcana-the-major-arcana What do we think? I'm a sucker for black-and-white illustrated decks but I'm torn on this. It's attractive, but IDK that it's thematically interesting? I think I'd want to see the whole 78 cards before deciding whether to buy it.

Just making sure you guys saw the Spooky Cat Tarot! It's a really cute little deck that seems to be perfectly themed and timed for Halloween. i don't own any cat-themed decks but this one just touched me. 🙂

Schiffer is reprinting the entire product and the replacement is expected in July. Artist-author Marie White explains on her blog: https://tarotsmyth.wordpress.com/2019/06/13/update-on-the-2nd-edition/. Marie has a link in her blog post to contact Schiffer for a replacement when it comes out.

Is it actually there? I know, when you are really new who knows what you want...but here is a little secret. There are a number of us here who give decks away occasionally. If you have a wish list in your profile we can get an idea of your vibe It would help to include what country you are living in too...just saying 🙂

I am struggling to decide whether to buy myself a book about tarot or a tarot deck. Both cost around the same price. What do you recommend I buy?

it is no longer in print alas. at the fair, and the pow wow, I used to use it for everything,, it is getting broken down from wear and tear,, it doesn't shuffle like it used to alas.. poor deck. I used to shuffle it and do it randomly trusting the card would be what the was to be when it was flipped over. the other day a lady client came to me for two types of reading.. hmm I said to myself what spread to use.. then for the first time I used it how it was intended, aka not randomly but went through the deck picking out cards I felt would be good for business/work reading, and cards that would be great for relationship reading.. …

Is anyone following Marie White's blog about her 2nd edition of the Mary-El https://tarotsmyth.wordpress.com/)? She has changed a few cards. For example: here is the old and new Hierophant. She has also posted her new 3 of Swords, Judgment, HP. I pre-ordered a copy and it is scheduled to arrive on May 28.

Does anyone know of a site that lists rare or OOP decks? I am not so interested in prices, but more than anything I am wanting to go through my collection and note what is OOP or rare for the sake of having a better idea of what I have so I make sure if I sell or trade something that falls in either of those categories that I am OK with letting it go, or if I do start looking for something that falls within those categories I have a heads up. I know there are tons of decks out there and it would be quite unrealistic to have a full listing (and found nothing useful in a Google search), but it would be nice to have something. If there is no such list, that could make fo…
