My Blood Moon finally arrived. It is GORGEOUS.

Sooo, I also bought kickstarted deck - Fantôme Tarot and it looks sooooo beautiful! Also, I love the idea for AR deck (if u guys know about more like these, please let me know!). However, it is coming in October... can't wait.

Not a deck but this eBay score arrived today.  I couldn’t pass it up for $6 shipped since it has been on my wishlist for over a year. Another book on Tarot is about as needed around here as a case of pneumonia so  I hope it lives up to its hype. I love her website so I have hope.

Congrats! 😄 I bought a couple of these to give as gifts to friends who missed the first sale. It came out SO nice, I'm glad I managed to get a copy.

 

I've received a number of things in the mail but work's been really terrible so not had time to open them: Starbound Phantasia, Trikala Tarot, and my Meraki Tarot. The Commonplace Tarot and Oracle are shipping soon, I'm SO excited.

After having not purchased any decks for a good, long time, I've gotten four decks in the last month, three of which came in the last few days! 

 

I got the Luna Lapin Tarot in May. It's a Thai deck that I purchased from a vendor in Taiwan. It's a SUPER cute RWS clone with bunnies. This is the first edition, and it's currently sold out. I believe there is a second edition currently available for pre-order on the publisher's Facebook.

On Tuesday, I got the Oak, Ash & Thorn in the mail. I was so shocked because it came a week after I ordered it. I think we've all seen this deck everywhere, but it's truly such a gentle, beautiful deck.

Yesterday, I got the Eastern Ink Tarot in the mail. The artwork in this deck is absolutely gorgeous. It's a Chinese deck, and it comes in a kit with a bunch of extras that I really didn't want but had to get if I wanted the deck. There is reportedly an English-Chinese bilingual edition coming out later this year (I think this means the guidebook will be bilingual -- because the cards are already in both languages) and which will ship internationally.

And finally, today, I got the Mother's Wisdom Deck. This is an out-of-print deck that I've been searching for while, basically since I came across it for the first time shortly after my mom passed away last year. But prices are usually astronomical. I was able to snag a copy for $50 from a Goodwill on Ebay, which is a lot for what was a mass-market deck, but a steal compared to the going rates ($100-250). The deck has 52 cards and features nature mothers, animal mothers, ancestral mothers, and divine mothers. There is a guidebook with detailed entries for each card.

I have the Mothers Wisdom deck and adore it! It is such a clear reader. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Anxiously awaiting an Ancient Tarots Of Bologna by Giacomo Zoni.

 

It's one of those "where'd it go?" replacement decks. Not sure but now I've finally found one at a decent price, sealed and everything. (It won't stay sealed for long!)

O Frabjous Day!  I have finally plunged in and orderd a deck that was out of print for years, and was re-issued last summer in a sturdy box and w slimmer borders.  I am speaking of The Primordial Tarot (Lo Scarabeo) formerly The Tarot of the Origins, which taught me to never take a mass-market deck for granted concerning its availability!  I purchased it fm Llewellyn here in the States w a 20% off coupon for being a new customer, and free shipping. along w their Tarot Calendar.  Haven't had one of those in YEARS so thought I'd test it to see if it's still any good...

 

AND a rather impulsive buy:  the Beatles Lenormand.  https://www.etsy.com/listing/973536924/the-beatles-lenormand?ref=shop_home_feat_1&frs=1  Wasn't going to do this so I missed the Kickstarter, but decided w that all its busyness (I do hope the cards are not bridge size!),  these cards might work in smaller layouts for me.   Familiarity w the Beatles and their songs should make this interesting!  And I MUST mention dear @katrinka for not only bringing this to the forum, but posting an actual 9-card square reading using this deck:  https://www.thetarotforum.com/forums/topic/11300-beatles-3x3/?tab=comments#comment-198846

 

Fingers crossed....

Callooh! Callay!  If you were tempted by Origins you will love this deck!

Origins was my holy grail for quite some time and then in 2018 someone I knew was selling their deck for still a lot of money, but less than I'd seen being asked for it elsewhwere, so I jumped. Naturally, 18 months later LS released Primordial. [deep breath, slow exhale]  Naturally, I bought one.

I love my Origins - I don't regret buying it and would never part with it, but I love working with the Primordial more. 😊

My semi-annual order from Lo Scarabeo...

 

It's - a lot... But doing big orders saves on postage, see...

 

@Bodhiseed You will love the New Liminal.

LOL Isn't that JUST the way?  All those years of waiting for one at the right?? price.  I feel ya Judy....  👺  

But am real happy to know that people are so pleased w the new release.  Those images have never left my head.  It's so different.  I don't know if I will be able to read w it, but it doesn't matter, I want it!  And now it will be MINE.  Need to find a pre-owned mammoth-leather wrap to store them 😅

I now have the Blood Moon Tarot AND the Primordial Tarot on order. I haven't bought a deck in almost a year but I felt tremendously enabled on these two!

I don't know what type of reader you are, but for me, knowing the original, straightforward meanings of the Origins LWB, I found the meanings given in the larger Primordial book excessively wordy and new-agey. See what you think... If you'd like, I can send you a copy of my Origins "cheat sheet". 😉

Perfect. Good luck with that. 🤣🤣🤣

I had put a hold on ordering anymore decks for awhile, but then I seen a walkthrough of The Cosmic Slumber and couldn't resist. Not what I would normally buy but there was something about it. Should be here in a couple days 🙂

I don’t blame you one bit, it is very beautiful 🌟

I’ve been very naughty this week! 
 I replaced my copy of Waite’s Pictorial Key to Tarot

 

 

I pre- ordered the Spirit Keeper Revelation edition Tarot  D2769C35-A0C5-4466-A9FA-3E94B80165A7.thumb.png.8559bfa250bc9368d2b56af44f95b37f.png

 

 

 

 

 

I made a low ball offer on eBay on Barrett’s Norse Tarot and was accepted

I managed to snag a copy of the Mythic Tarot before they all started topping $100 and got it in this week.

I also got a new in box copy of the Merryday Tarot for close to retail price. It was a mistaken identity purchase. I had gotten it confused with the Mythic Tarot.  Now I am having trouble bringing myself to cracking that seal. I’m not even sure if I should or not     0E2A1254-48B4-46AC-86D1-EDC0DED94CB9.thumb.jpeg.43302c6c3bff9b1b978623d616a3beca.jpeg

Oh, I love both of those! I have a vintage Esoterico ❤, but just a US Games Albano, sadly. One day I might get (very!) lucky and find an affordable early one. 🙏😉

The oldies are often goodies. Enjoy!!
