Deck Review: Pixie’s Marseille Tarot
Pixie’s Marseille Tarot brings two of Tarot’s most influential traditions together, weaving Pamela Colman Smith’s familiar RWS figures into the pips, structures, and symbolism of the Tarot de Marseille. The result is clever, quirky, occasionally weird, and clearly made with enormous affection for both.

Deck Review: Wild Eden Tarot
The Wild Eden Tarot is a strange, sensual, and gloriously visceral deck from Lo Scarabeo, illustrated by Gloria Pizzilli and created with Tarot educator Alice Mastroleo. I take a deep dive into its distinctive artwork, symbolism, and very VERY naked bodies 😂

Deck Review: The Hierophanies Tarot
The Hierophanies Tarot is a clever, strange, and tender queer reimagining of the RWS, weaving recurring natural forms through human bodies, technology, and the cosmos. Its richly symbolic cards explore identity, transformation, connection, and the exhilarating possibilities of becoming.

Deck Review: Chaos Blossom Tarot
The Chaos Blossom Tarot has inspired probably the most ambivalent review I've written so far. As a deck it's occasionally brilliant, occasionally baffling, and haunted throughout by a faint sense of symbolic uncanny valley. Some cards genuinely stopped me in my tracks (that Judgement card! OMG! 😍), while others left me staring at random giant sword-hamsters asking “but… why though?” A deck full of beautiful imagery and some mythological near-misses.

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: 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.

Currently On Kickstarter: The Liminal Tarot Deck
A quick & dirty love letter to The Liminal Tarot: an eerie, charcoal-drawn indie deck living in Tarot’s threshold spaces. With just over a day left on Kickstarter, this is a genuinely original deck for readers who like their symbolism strange, unsettled, and alive.
