I feel a bit awkward about reviewing an oracle deck here on GR, but the fact is, it does have a booklet with brief info about the characters in the deck, their divinatory meaning, and short prayers to address them. And, honestly, this little booklet has more meat (Eric is helping me with this review %)) than some pagan books I've read...

This deck is gorgeous. I am not one of those pagans who are always in search of a new deck. I use two, Visconti-Sforza for magic and Marseilles for divination. But I am a latent fan of Danu Forest (I like her enough to always intend to read more by her, but I haven't actually read enough to be a real fan), and this deck was praised by Morgan Daimler, another author I like and respect.

The info is brief, but (as far as I can judge) accurate; the artwork is amazing; and most of the prayers work for me,—which does not happen often! Indeed, I tend to find most present-day invocations etc awkward if not cringeworthy.

I find this deck beautiful, deep, moving, and empowering, and I do recommend it.

This deck is absolutely stunning and feels imbued with ancient wisdom. I'm also finding it to be a great source to learn about the divine feminine deities and such my Celtic ancestors would have been familiar with and love that it goes beyond just the British Isles. After all, Celtic/Gallic culture was a huge part of other parts of North Western Europe too.
