This author has done an amazing job in the illustrations included in this book. I would definitely go out and purchase the cards if available. The description was clear and easy to understand. The one-card spread is a great way to start your day. There were even several other spread examples that were great.
Great guidebook and LOVED the decks.
Stop it right now. This is THE BEST oracle deck I’ve seen in a while. It appears to take from traditional Rider-Waite tarot only the distinct meaning of the cards and brings refreshing and dare I say, wholesome components.
For example, card 13 in Rider-Waite is “Death” and represented by death on a white stallion, but in this deck, it is called “an ending” and represented by a death moth in a wreath of eucalyptus. They mean the same thing, and are both stunning depictions, but the cottagecore girlies really deserved this deck.
Am I going to buy a copy when it’s released? ABSOLUTELY I AM.
This is the second by Jessice Roux that I’ve been fortunate enough to read advance copies of. Her artwork is beyond gorgeous and I’ve had a wonderful time reading both.
The cover and description both piqued my interest. The book itself kept my interest and then some. The charming, Victorian-vibe illustrations are just the icing in this wonderfully divine cake of a guide book and oracle deck and I’m planning on ordering this soon. My teens approved of this deck as well.
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.
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!
