Deck Review: Ever Ahead Tarot
A Tarot deck made of road signs, coffee cups, and loose change usually would not work for me… and yet, here we are! The Ever Ahead Tarot is a little treasure of a deck, and a fab travel companion - it takes the everyday and gives it just enough emotional weight to carry the whole RWS system - often very amusingly and with a surprising amount of heart.
Deck Review: The Yukika Tarot
The Yukika Tarot by Stasia Burrington is a deck of soft watercolours and deep currents. Beneath its cosy, storybook surface runs something stranger: bodies, seeds, mycelium, quiet transformations. This is a Tarot deck deeply interested in growth, tenderness, and the invisible processes that slowly change us.
Deck Review: The Endless Tarot
The Endless Tarot is less a deck you command and more a world you wander through. Drawn as a myriorama, its cards form a continuous panoramic landscape, rearranging themselves with every spread; a living, shifting story rather than a set of fixed meanings. Steeped in mythology, nostalgia, and that peculiar ache of anemoia, it positions you not at the centre of the action, but just slightly to one side of it. You are not the hero. You are the flâneur, the quiet witness, watching love, loss, celebration and fate unfold in twilight blues and starlit paths. Tarot here feels less like instruction and more like encountering a story already in…
Deck Review: Tarot of Oxalia
The Tarot of Oxalia is a lush, self-assured, unapologetically feminine reimagining of the RWS. It balances softness with sharpness and roots its symbolism in cycles of flow: love, loss, abundance, decay. It feels both timeless and distinctly of its moment: mythic, earthy, and defiant.
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: Camena Tarot
Rooted in myth, art history, and watery intuition, the Camena Tarot is a deck that rewards slow looking and deep reading. From cat-eyed pomegranates and antlered High Priestesses to lactating Stars and Janus-lit Hermits, this is a Majors-only deck that treats Tarot not as a shortcut to answers, but as a threshold - one you have to cross carefully, attentively, and on your own time.
Deck Review: Bonestone & Earthflesh Tarot
The Bonestone & Earthflesh Tarot is my All-Time Mostest Favouritest deck: rich, myth-soaked, visually stunning, and utterly unforgettable. Created by illustrator Ana Tourian and writer Avalon Cameron, it’s a deck that leans hard into beauty and brutality, ecological grief and ecstatic joy, folklore and flesh. With the long-awaited mass-market Reawakening edition finally making this former indie unicorn accessible, it feels like the perfect moment to revisit what makes Bonestone so powerful and so enduring - and why I still return to it again and again.
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. With her background as an NHS doctor working in psychiatry, Fossey understands the messy grey areas of being human, and that compassion runs through the deck. Her creatures are a little strange, a little scruffy, sometimes falling apart… but always worthy of love.
Deck Review: The Cracked Amethyst Tarot
The Cracked Amethyst Tarot feels like both a culmination and a homecoming - a decade of Jessica Bott’s artistic growth distilled into a deck that’s gentle, thoughtful, and quietly wise. Each card hums with intention: landscapes alive with light, natural textures, and a kind of calm that feels both grounded and expansive. Bott’s reimagining of her long-out-of-print Idiosyncradeck is no nostalgia project; it’s a transformation. Like the oyster-Magician at its heart, this is grit turned into grace, art honed into alchemy.
Deck Review: The Cards Drawn Tarot
The Cards Drawn Tarot feels like the kind of deck you’d read with in a smoky medieval tavern: clever, cheeky, and just a little bit dangerous. Clint Woods’ design fuses Tarot and playing card archetypes into a winking, whip-smart system that reads like a bard spinning truths by firelight: trickster energy with real insight beneath the jester’s grin. Buddhist philosophy meets card-table mischief, and somehow it works :-).
