Deck Review: Discovering Beauty Tarot
The Discovering Beauty Tarot is a proper old-school Love-and-Light deck - but don’t be fooled. Beneath the warmth and colour is a fiercely feminist, politically awake Tarot that asks for presence, courage, and care.

Deck Review: Zoomies Tarot
The Zoomies Tarot is whimsical, tender, and often surprisingly profound - very much in keeping with Amber Fossey’s trademark ability to make a “cute” drawing suddenly hit you in the feelings.

Also: hooray, Spring is here and I can photograph with proper flowers in my garden/local park again! The deck comes with a thick, paperback sized guidebook, Playing With Symbols, that gives plenty of detail on each card, as well as an overall guide to…
