Re: Rare Triumphs tarot / Pike and Clover playing cards

I will back too

I gave my kickstarter Pike & Clover deck away to my nephew in a fit of generosity, though still have your Liber Ludorum. It will be great to get another copy of the P&C, especially with trumps!

Re: Quick Check-in about the Forum

I disappeared for a long time I know, but this is still the forum where I feel most at home. I will try not to leave it so long again. I don't mind a bit of quietness. I think people here say things when they have something of substance to say, not just burble away for the sake of it.

Not as far as I can tell. I've never had to pay customs fees though, which often makes for a triple whammy!

Re: CharlotteK DoW: Tarot of Enchanted Dreams

Another two today. Thursday - Justice I love the colours on this card, and the pillars and red curtains that frame the card. On the scales are a sword and a scroll. Justice here is about making objective decisions, taking responsibility, also being honest with yourself. I had to read this alongside ...

I'll have to start to save up for the Encore :-) I really want to have it now! The Encore is his best work to date. I have bought a few of CM's self published decks direct from his website - Decoratif, Marchetti, Gilded Royale and Encore and I also got the Retrospective in a trade. I am a fan of hi...

Re: What's the Deck-Stork bringing?

I also have a new Thoth coming. The pocket version of the German Premium von Crowley with the gilt edges. This is the one OTO worked on to provide new high quality scans that never made it into an English version, not the 'gold edition' in the teal coloured box. I really wanted the standard size, bu...

I haven't heard of this deck but as soon as I saw the images I knew instantly it was Caroline Smith artwork. How beautiful!

CharlotteK DoW: Tarot of Enchanted Dreams

My deck this week is the Tarot of Enchanted Dreams by Yasmeen Westwood. I have the mass market edition published by Red Feather (there was an earlier self-published version, reviewed by @Benebell here . It is huge, glossy, gilded and cardboardy and is very pretty. The box is one of those big, sturdy...

Re: Would really appreciate recommendations...

What about the Shamanic Medicine Oracle deck by Meiklejohn-Free? I like this oracle a lot. The artwork by Yuri Lietch is really wonderful. The authors seem to me to have done a good job of avoiding appropriation. The imagery does reflect a range of cultural 'shamanic' practices but the descriptions...

I agree that this will take a concerted protest from creators and customers to get Etsy to take this seriously and actually DO something.

Re: Free DuQuette!

I would love this, but I deleted Facebook in disgust, and now I can't see his videos. I may seriously have to reconsider and open a secret account under a pseudonym without any friends, just to access content I can't get by any other means. Lon is great isn't he? Love how accessible he makes things.
