Just beautiful! My favorite deck prior to discovering Oracle of Shadows and Light is the Osho Zen Tarot. Oracle has a more direct, practical take on things versus the more philosophical Osho Zen, which will be very handy in my day-to-day questions. The booklet describes each card and offers 3 parts: About the card; the Card Speaking (directly to you); and a more philosophical Divination Message for a larger viewpoint. The illustrations are absolutely stunning. I immediately bought another set as a gift for my tarot card reader :)
Very first deck by Lucy Cavendish and Jasmine Becket-Griffith that I got and since that I must have every single deck these two ladies made together (but this one stays my favourite!). It is absolutely gorgeous and I felt a very deep connection to the cards from the first sight. The artwork is beautiful, every picture has a different mood and vibrations and the guide book is just perfect, it feels like the fairy (or witch or ghost or whoever) speaks straight to you. I was surprised it was meant to be primarily for teenagers. I use these cards even in my 40´s and they speak right to me. I use the deck on its own, for daily reading, for shadow work or together with tarot cards and reading is very accurate.
I did not original buy these for myself but for my sister. She loved them but when she passed away, I took them home with me. They were not the kind of cards that I would buy, and I do have a large divination collection, but I must admit that once I used them they proved to be very accurate, and so they grew on me. If you like this kind of artwork, which is nice, I would highly recommend them for your collection.
these are so beautiful!, the writing also fits the cards perfectly and the art is just so pretty and sweet. I just got them, so I can't say really much more. however I do know that I will have lots of fun with this deck.
