    Deck Review: The Erenberg Tarot

    August 18, 2025 /

    The Erenberg Tarot is a vibrant, vintage-poster-style homage to the Rider-Waite-Smith - bold, nostalgic, and full of character. Each card feels like a zoom-lens conversation with the originals: familiar yet freshly alive. Smart, striking, and steeped in outsider-art charm, it’s a deck that turns tradition into something joyously human again.

    Deck Review: The Tempest Tarot Deck

    August 10, 2025 /

    Wind-lashed, water-streaked, and a little enchanted, The Tempest Tarot feels like stepping into deep water rather than sunlit shallows. Its palette is muted, its symbolism restrained, but its emotional range is vast. This is a deck that understands the sea as Tarot understands the psyche: a liminal space where danger and revelation coexist, and where anything is still possible.

    Deck Review: MindScapes Tarot

    July 22, 2025 /

    The MindScapes Tarot is a painterly, deeply introspective deck that invites you inward rather than outward. Born in lockdown and shaped by reflection, it uses dreamlike landscapes to evoke the emotional resonance of Tarot rather than literal scenes. This isn’t a deck of instruction or dogma, but of invitation - a visual language that helps you reconnect with parts of yourself words can’t quite reach.

    Deck Review: The Unveiled Tarot

    July 10, 2025 /

    This is Tarot as social commentary. The Unveiled Tarot tackles loneliness, alienation, war, capitalism, and domestic darkness with brutal honesty, reminding us that Tarot has always been a political medium. Lonergan’s imagery strips away mythic distance to show how archetypes live - and decay - in the modern world. It’s challenging, thought-provoking, and absolutely NOT neutral. And I love it!

    Deck Review: Divine Channels

    July 1, 2025 /

    The Divine Channels Tarot is raw, tender, and gloriously intuitive. Created by artist and arts psychotherapist Harley Hefford, the deck blends hand-painted collage, poetic fragments, and emotional honesty to reimagine Tarot for modern life. It feels alive, imperfect, playful, and deeply human - less about rigid systems, more about paying attention, feeling things, and making meaning where you stand.

    Deck Review: The Bon Sequitur Tarot Deck

    June 22, 2025 /

    If the Bon Sequitur Tarot were music, it’d be acid jazz: exuberant, clever, and unexpectedly profound. Beneath the colour and humour lies a deck shaped by loss, resilience, and reclaimed pleasure. It doesn’t pull its punches, but it does offer joy - the kind that knows sorrow intimately and chooses delight anyway.

    Deck Review: Wild Waters Edge Tarot

    June 2, 2025 /

    The Wild Waters Edge Tarot is a burst of pure, radiant joy - a fistful of sunshine rendered in watercolour. With its 70s flair, bold colours, and fairytale optimism, it invites play and wonder without slipping into fluff. This is a deck that reconnects you with your inner flower child, while still offering thoughtful symbolism and emotional resonance.

    Deck Review: The Black Tarot (By R. Black)

    May 23, 2025 /

    Despite its high price and imperfect finish, The Black Tarot has earned a place among my all-time greats. It’s one of those rare decks that genuinely makes you a better reader. If you care about symbolism, emotional depth, and Tarot as a tool for real insight rather than surface answers, this deck is 100% worth every penny.

    Deck Review: The Craft Felt Tarot

    May 16, 2025 /

    The Craft Felt Tarot is warm, joyful, and irresistibly tactile. Made from photographs of hand-crafted felt designs, the cards feel like a hug from a slightly psychic teddy bear. Bright, bold colours and rich textures bring familiar RWS imagery to life in a way that’s comforting rather than confronting. This is Tarot softened, without being dumbed down.

    Deck Review: Figuratively Speaking Mermaid Tarot

    May 8, 2025 /

    Beneath its beauty, the Figuratively Speaking Mermaid Tarot is surprisingly sharp. Familiar archetypes are reimagined through marine life: anglerfish lanterns, siren songs, sunken treasure - creating metaphors that feel fresh yet deeply Tarot-literate. This is a deck that understands liminality, shadow, and desire, and isn’t afraid to let its waters run dark.
