I absolutely adore this oracle deck and use it in my day to day life for reflection and entertainment. It is also a great tool for entertaining guests and friends and a conversation starter about the deeper issues that everyone is thinking about. The drawings are so precious and beautiful and make the deck even more special.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me this eARC to review. Sadly the content within this book is not good for my mental health which I did not realise at the time so I am very sorry for that! I will give this 3 Stars as I couldn't review it properly. Apologies again!
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me free access to the advanced digital copy of this book.
I wish the illustrations were in color and not black and white otherwise it was rather a quite decent book.
I loved Floriography, and Woodland Wardens continues that beautiful style of Jessica Roux. With gorgeous illustrations, this is a must-have for anyone who works with oracle.
It had beautiful illustrations and it felt magical overall. I liked it! If you liked witchy stuff and cottagecore vibes, you will like it too.
This deck is stunning. I plan to purchase a hard copy of it. I love the woodland theme. I love the vintage forest feel to these cards. I love the Marten, crow and fox. This deck is by the same author as the book Floriography. The illustrations are beautiful.
The card images are very pretty and mystical. Love the details in each card. A lovely deck for sure and enjoyed reading all the meanings.
I received an electronic copy of the guidebook through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Filled with interestingly old-style illustrations and intriguing meanings relating to the cards, but it was disappointing that though color was mentioned as something to take note of and yet the review copy given was black-and-white.

Jessica Roux's Woodland Wardens oracle deck is absolutely gorgeous. The artist obviously cares about small details, and the drawings give each animal a feeling of mystical wonder and peace. It is worth the purchase for the artwork alone, but also offers insight for those who choose to use the deck for its original purpose. Will definitely look into purchasing for my shop. :)
I would definitely pic it up instantly if I saw it in any of my local stores. The design was well thought and shows a lot of heart in it, the illustrations are breathtaking and totally reach the expectations I had.
This oracle deck is so stunning! I like the references to traditional Tarot.
I definitely will buy one for myself after release. 😍
Woodland Wardens is a beautiful and informative book that would be perfect for anyone who enjoys oracle decks. It includes helpful spreads, advice for beginners, and card meanings. Woodland Wardens is stunningly illustrated and pairs animals and plants together to encourage deep reflection. This would be a great set for anyone who enjoys oracle decks or someone who simply loves Jessica Roux’s gorgeous art! Woodland Wardens releases on April 5, 2022. Thank you to Jessica Roux, Andrews McMeel Publishing, and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Absolutely beautiful deck and companion book. The artwork is stunning. Lovely for anyone who adores animals and nature. I want this in my collection - love it!
Animal decks are a hit or miss for me. Sometimes I resonate and sometimes it just seems like disembodied associations. This deck checks all the right boxes. The artwork is absolutely stunning and the interpretations are lyrical. I'm really excited to begin working with this deck.
This beautiful, whimsical, magical desk is one not to miss. I am so excited to get my hands on a physical one and start to play with them. From the artwork to the information, it is clear how much care and thought when into making them.
Everything about this is just so magical! I've ordered the deck and cannot wait to explore the card on my own!
Cozy, heartwarming, wholesome - that's how I would describe this beautiful oracle deck. It has that cottagecore feel to it and all the illustrations feel very atmospheric, even nostalgic.
This is a great tool for self-reflection. Descriptions of each card and questions that are posed at the end of said descriptions are very thought-provoking. I love the author's realistic, down-to-earth approach. That's the reason this deck is also suitable for people who are not interested in witchcraft or anything new-age related per se.
It really inspired me to try to reconnect with nature more. I will definitely buy this deck for myself, can't wait for it's release to see all the illustrations in person!
Beautifully illustrated deck and guidebook.
The guidebook includes the usual how-to and card spread suggestion section, and the author explains the call to create the deck in a concise but touching introduction.
The idea of pairing an animal and a plant on each card is really ingenious, as it allows for a nuance that I've struggled to find in other oracle decks. Each explanation page explores these extended concordances and gives both an upright and a reversed possible meaning.
I will definitely be adding this deck to my collection when it's published.
I thought this deck was beautiful - the illustrations were wonderful and the guide book was easy to follow
