They've loaded for me! Internet weirdness...

fucktheg0ds

They loaded for me and they're beautiful!

crystalball_mod

It's one of my favorites! So pretty... @.@

flowersforgraves

I have a copy of the Healing Light tarot deck: some images here, which I think is very beautiful and I love a lot.

Oh! This one looks very interesting! I can see why you like it so much.

bratwizard

The deck I work with (and might end up using for this!) is the Wildwood tarot deck - it's inspired by Celtic and pre-Celtic archetypes and symbolism, specifically focusing on woodland imagery; it's always very down to earth when I work with it and I love it!

This one is so gorgeous! The vibe it gives off... ugh I love it! This post is really bad for me because now there're so many decks I want to buy. D:

angelsaves

i have way too many decks! if anybody is interested in seeing their reading in any of these, hit me up:
slow holler
science
tarot of the unknown
mystic mondays
queers and queens
marigold
zombies
slutist
new world

I adore your collection! It's so varied and creative and I'm so glad you shared. <3

thank you! :D

the tarot of the unknown should actually be this one, not the wild unknown: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/whenwordsfail/tarot-of-the-unknown-a-78-card-cartoon-inspired-deck

Oh whoops, completely my bad. I'll fix that now!

From: (Anonymous)

Hi! So, I saw that you have this deck and I think it's simply so stunning! Could I trouble you to take a picture of the 2 of Swords and Death cards? It's totally fine if that's too much trouble though!

absolutely! here you go: https://imgur.com/a/gjeBQUM

Thank you!!!!!

Here's a list of Tarot decks from 8-Bit to Zerner-Farber.

This is helpful as a jumping-off point! I've listed it above, so thanks so much for sharing!

Thank you so much for sharing!

myid_letmeshowittoyou

The ones I have that haven't already been mentioned, are:

Circus of Fortune Tarot - this one is probably best for Major Arcana, as the Minor Arcana are very simplistic.

Rackham Tarot

English Magic Tarot

Tarot of the Haunted House

Edited Date: 2019-10-30 11:05 pm (UTC)

These are so lovely and varied! I find the Tarot of the Haunted House especially striking (very much contemplating a purchase).

emmykay

The one I've used is the Shakespearean Tarot - I just really love the quote that is associated with each card.

Oh wow, this deck has such a magical quality to it.

akamarykate

One of my favorites is Kat Black's Golden Tarot, which is made from digitally collaged works of Medieval and Early Modern art.

This deck is a great idea (and absolutely gorgeous)! I really like how the website you linked goes into interpretations for the cards.

raininshadows

I have a copy of Wild Unknown (and Wild Unknown: Animal Spirits), and can offer pictures/book scans as appropriate. WU is black, white, and rainbow-y, with some shimmery bits. Art tends away from humans and humanoids; the court cards and major arcana show animals, and the other minor arcana show objects. There's also a "Tarot Basics" guide on the website here. The author does not provide interpretation advice for reversed cards.

WU:AS is aesthetically similar, but takes a serious left turn conceptually - I don't know that I'd really call it a tarot deck, although there are some equivalencies. However, I can also provide some images of that if people would find it helpful.

I think they're both really interesting decks for sure!

izayoi_no_mikoto

The only deck I own is Yamamoto Naoki's Japanese Myth deck, which is beautiful. Honestly, I just bought it because of how beautiful it is. You can see the full deck here.

The explanation booklet is great because it not only suggests interpretations and a few spreads, but also offers a few sentences about each card to explain the myth depicted (and why it fits the card in question). If anyone wants the descriptions of any individual cards, let me know--just give me a few days to translate from the Japanese.

Thanks for sharing this and making it accessible as well! <3

commoncomitatus

Hi! This might be a little late to be useful for the anon posters, but for the non-anons and (hopefully!) future rounds, I've just gotten hold of the Linestrider and Fountain decks -- very different aesthetics, but great for creativity!

I also have the Wild Unknown and Shadowscapes -- already listed above, but always good to have multiple sources, right? :)

It's always great, yes!

Those decks are absolutely gorgeous! I am severely tempted to nab the Linestrider one in particular.

I know this is late, but it made me laugh so I need to share it. I bring you link to the Ikea Tarot: https://www.etsy.com/listing/731867878/ikea-tarot-deck?utm_source=OpenGraph&utm_medium=PageTools&utm_campaign=Share
