9. #ForestOfEnchantmentTarot by Lunaea Weatherstone and Meraylah Allwood (Purchased on Amazon).
This deck is one I had my eye on for awhile before purchasing. I fell in love with the #artwork because it reminded me so much of the #fairytale #storybooks I used to read as a child. So much love and creativity went into this deck. The suits have a different name than traditional #tarotdecks, and the artwork is so detailed and has so much #symbolism. You really gotta study the images in this deck as there are so many hidden details and #symbols within the artwork. There are two decks in my collection that really speak to me and seem as though they really come to life, and it is this one and the Isis Oracle previously mentioned. These two decks are my main go-to decks, because they feel so #kindred to me. Highly recommend the Forest of Enchantment Tarot!
10. #LucidDreamsTarot by Britta/St.Soleil (Purchased on Etsy, though, their Etsy shop was shut down. This deck can still be purchased from their website)
In my opinion, this is the best tarot deck for beginners out there! It has the upright and reversal meanings right on the cards, as well as the #astrological symbols, #zodiac and #elemental keys. The guidebook is incredibly thorough as well and includes the meanings to everything on the cards, including a guide to #numerology in the #tarot! The artwork in this deck is heavily based on the #RiderWaite tarot, though, in my opinion the artwork in this deck is so much more appealing and just looks so elegant! I highly recommend this deck to any beginner.
As for their Etsy shop being shut down, this was due to them being overwhelmed with orders a couple years ago during the holiday season. The decks were a few weeks delayed in being shipped out, which resulted in a whole bunch of people leaving negative reviews and requesting refunds in fear they wouldn't arrive in time for Christmas. People still got their decks but all the refund requests and negative reviews due to delays I think got them shut down. I still recommend purchasing from them because they are honest, they just got overwhelmed with more orders than they could handle I think for the season. The deck can be purchased from their website. ☺️
11. #ArchangelOracleCards by #DoreenVirtue (Purchased at a thrift store). Under other circumstances I probably wouldn't have purchased this deck, but I found the box set for this deck that still had the DVD for it inside, and it was such a cheap price I couldn't pass it up! Though it's not my particular taste, the artwork is pretty and I have had some really amazing experiences with it. In 2020 I made a #VisionBoard and drew a card from this deck for the year, and the card I drew was the Writing card with #Archangel Gabriel. This felt like such a divine message for me as I did go on to do a lot of meaningful writing that year and helped a lot of people through it. Ever since it has been my go-to deck for #angelic messages and guidance and will remain a permanent part of my collection.
There is a bit of #controversy with Doreen Virtue. A few years ago she switched he path to #Christianity and discouraged the use of #divination. A lot of people betrayed by her for this and got rid of decks they owned by her. Personally, her change in spirituality doesn't bother me. I understand why people feel this way about her work now, but the way I see it, everyone is on their own journey and as we grow on our path, we change. 🤷♀️ Just because she switched paths and no longer supports divination and her old work doesn't mean that what she made in the past no longer has value. I've come to love this deck, and her lifestyle change has nothing to do with me or the value this deck has brought to me on my journey. To each their own!
Thank you so much everyone for reading and I hope you guys have maybe discovered some new decks here that you've never seen before! If you have any questions or need a direct link to where I've purchased some of them, leave a comment and I'll do my best to answer! 🌻
