    There is an official one, but without the Minor Arcana. I have been thinking of doing up the Minor Arcana. I've seen an anime Tarot deck on Amazon but I disagree with a lot of the card choices.

    Does anybody have the Knapp-Hall tarot and read with it? It's one of the decks in my relatively large collection that I continue to the drawn to but haven't yet had time to read up on. However, I feel drawn to read with it.

    I currently have the Golden Universal Tarot deck and I love the symbolism. I have a hard time with the Marseille Tarot deck (it's too abstract for me and I heavily rely on symbolism). Any suggestion?

    Hello everyone Does anyone have a suggestion for a good bright-side deck? I have several dark decks, and a number of neutral decks, but I don't really have any bright decks (except for the Happy Tarot, which was just too darn cute to resist), so I think I need a little light to balance things out. Thank you. :)

    Have YOU ever gotten or seen a deck that viscerally repelled you? I don't mean just "nah, it didn't resonate". I mean like, "Eww. Gross, Get it away from me!" To explain: I recently got sent a deck by mistake. I tired to return it to the vendor but they never sent the return postage label -- so I finally just opened the package to have a look. It's the Tarot Ocsuro. While I appreciated some of the artwork, the deck itself repulsed me. I found myself with a visceral negative reaction to some of the motifs the artist used [WHY the criss-cross bandages over nipples???] I understand the deck is supposed to be a Shadow deck. I got no prob…

    The Dragons and Rare Creatures oracle deck http://artlair.storenvy.com/collections/1172127-card-decks/products/17423735-dragons-rare-creatures-oracle-deck I'm always interested in decks that depict magical creatures, but I can't find any reviews or unboxing videos about it. Does anyone have any experience with it?

    Can someone please tell me what the original Aquarian Tarot by Palladini backs were? I had this deck back in the 1970s and I recall the backs being plain blue. I've gone down an internet rabbit hole trying to figure this out - help and TIA!

    I just saw on Twitter us games made a post saying the aquarian tarot face has been retouched so they are more defined. The aquarian tarot was one of my first tarot, having the psychic tarot book. I'm surprised they didn't change anything else

    Found this on etsy. It's a RWS clone done in a 70s vibe and I just love it. Such a cool deck! It's apparently only printed in 100 copies so it will probably not be around for very long, I think. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/566407296/aquarius-tarot-psychedelic-hand-drawn?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=aquarian%20tarot&ref=sr_gallery-1-1

    So, The London Tarot Conference is this weekend - 10-11th October, 2025, at the Copthorne Tara Hotel in Kensington. I shall be attending virtually. AND - I have just received this in the post today. I wasn't expecting it to arrive until after the conference. Arcana 78. by Kin Arnold & Chris Butler I LOVE IT It has people I know, have met, have heard speak on stage, or have learned about in the epitomes of history. I am already campaigning to have it produced in waterproof stock. For anyone wishing to purchase, you can get a copy here: http://tarotconference.co.uk/booking/#arcana78

    For fans of the Thelema Tarot, this is a deck to watch out for. I'm not exactly a fan of digitally collaged decks, but I like this one. It's scheduled to be released under the Lo Scarabeo imprint in June 2018. You can see a few pics HERE.

    Anyone use this deck here? It's one of my favorites, especially for fall! It's full of the oranges & browns of fall, countered by a moonlit blue (pretty much all of the cards follow one or the other of these colour schemes). I find it reads like the cards are reversed most of the time, so the imagery of a brighter-meaning card can be the shadow side, while a usually darker card may be showing the silver lining. This makes is a bit harder to read if you usually meld the by-the-book stuff with what you see, but if you use it intuitively, it's very powerful!

    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…

    The Mucha tarot, the Art Nouveau tarot, Ethereal Visions... Some fairly well-known decks! But I'm curious, does anyone know of other art nouveau/art deco tarot decks? I know a bunch of oracle, or similar, but for tarot those are the three I can find. And if you're a fan of the style like me and want to know the oracles, just let me know! I just don't want to break any rules by bringing them up unprompted in the tarot section.

    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 …

    I've recently purchased the Arthur Rackham oracle 2nd edition deck and the cards are too slippery! I do not like slippery cards and was wondering if there was a way to de-laminate them (if that's a word). 👀 They feel really cheap to me. I love the deck but can't stand slippery cards that just go all over the place when I try to shuffle and handle them. I prefer hard/thick card stock with little to no lamination.

    Today I received the Asherah, which has been in progress for many years. It's influenced by the Thoth, but has kept some Golden Dawn attributes (like Judgement as card 20 instead of Aeon). Does its own thing in places too - like female Hermit and Chariotess. I like her description of Empress and Emperor as solar feminine and masculine, Priestess and Hierophant as lunar feminine and masculine. Came quickly from Game Crafter. Nice stock for me; it's thin and whippy, but feels durable and... I guess supple is the word. The not-so-white lwb that comes with it has good info. The deck is the large size from GC, and isn't cheap. Cheaper poker size due out at the end of the ye…

    It looks like Asherah Tarot will be removed from sale on September 14 and is planned to be back next year as a new third edition (with a couple of reworked cards among other things). In case anyone wants to get a current edition (1st Gamecrafter / 2nd MPC). Details on Sarah Wheatley's site.

    Per an email announcement from Sarah Wheatley: http://www.makeplayingcards.com/sell/AsherahTarot I'm so tempted by this. There's both a large size and a poker size.

    So I am curious if anyone has worked with this deck. If so... how do you like it? What do you use it for? How do you manage the two sets of Major Arcana and all of the extra cards? Feel free to check out my New Deck Interview for Aura-Soma if you are not familiar with the deck and would like a little exposure to it. Thanks.

    I wasn't sure which section to post this deck in, since the creator refers to it as "a playing cards deck together with 22 Arcana and 4 knights." So, perhaps this should go in Oracle Decks? But then I thought, well, it is a 78 card deck with 4 suits plus 22 majors...sounds like a tarot deck. Feel free to move this post if it is decided that it should be somewhere else! I just saw this deck and thought I would share here: http://aylabyingrid.com/aylas-cards-of-truth/. I really like a lot of the majors. The artist conveys so much with through relatively simple imagery. Not sure how I feel about the "minors", but she does describe them as playing cards after all, and I s…
