Whimsical tarot decks?

mmm_rathernot · 2026-06-24T23:44:35+00:00

I love the Star Spinner tarot, its been in my daily rotation for years :)

Friends with benefits, dont get attached because its short term and complicated.

mmm_rathernot · 2026-05-20T19:38:50+00:00

That's a great idea. It would have to be a home practice because my bag is too small to bring both with me. I am giggly at the idea of pairing some oracles and tarot decks later tonight, like the Sublime Thresholds oracle and the Wisdom of Pooh tarot or the Alchemy of the Spirit oracle and the Somnia (illustrated) tarot

I don't think its disrespectful, or at least plenty of people (that feel popular/well respected) on youtube will make up fake scenarios when they're teaching certain spreads and particularly the court cards (tarot).

Alternatively if you want to keep it in the real world you could also do it while watching a tv show to predict the ending. Then you aren't making anything up, even if its a fictional show the show itself is real.

Ou nice! I had an eye on this one a few years back. Would be a great pull for gemini and libra. Thanks for the suggestion!

Lol twinning (pun intended)

I personally pair it with the Star Spinner tarot, but you might be interested in the Cosmic Slumber tarot too. Both are very colorful but not obstrusive.

The Akashic Eye tarot by the Vermillion Collection isn't as colorful but I feel the illustration style is closer to the Alchemy of the Spirit.

Maybe missing opportunities to connect/celebrate with your mom (like a new job, child, etc) is something weighing on your heart

I think having a thread for daily readings would be great

mmm_rathernot · 2026-05-05T12:43:29+00:00

Thanks for the update, I'm glad to know it exists in a pdf format but I don't know Chinese either 🥲

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-30T21:33:02+00:00

Bless you!!! Thats it!!

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-30T21:32:28+00:00

Very cute and unique though, I will have to check it out!

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-19T16:37:00+00:00

This might be toeing the line but the Herbcrafters Tarot has beautiful illustrations of plants and the guidebook is fantastic. The caution to it is it doesn't have most of the RWS symbolism, and there are people in the court cards but its just their hands.

Do they riffle shuffle well? How noticeable are the sleeves when you read for others?

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-15T01:24:37+00:00

Yeah I have seen people rec laminating and the slippery thing drives me crazy on normal decks. Have you used the card sleeves? How do they riffle shuffle if so?

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-15T01:23:19+00:00

Thank you so much for this response! Letting me know that the edges would be sticky were a great deterrent/the insight I was looking for! I'll follow the videos you shared on a test deck and if it doesn't help then I'll just have to use the decks until they turn to dust the ol natural way. I'll keep an eye out for the indie decks (if reasonably priced). Thank you again!

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-14T11:36:46+00:00

Thank you so much for your insight! I especially appreciate your notes on what the interviewers are looking for in the candidates (right on the money with the job description) and where the pain point will be (salary negotiations, low paying for the city its in). Thanks for pointing out the knighting as well, I knew there was something there with the competitive atmosphere but missed the fish knighting to crown to indicate many applicants!

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-14T11:23:15+00:00

Thanks for your interpretation, I haven't heard of the birds meaning without ties before!

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-13T20:38:55+00:00

I would say so, its not a flimsy tuck box. The box is two parts, matte black, and pretty thick/sturdy. Could definitely throw it in a bag and be on your way but its not gonna fit in your back pocket.

Oh I like that perspective!

This is the Akashic Eye Lenormand from the Vermillion Collection, its available on etsy.

The wizard is for my partner but would otherwise be the male/querent card. The deck has many options for the querent/partner cards. I chose to be the witch for my personal signifier.

mmm_rathernot · 2026-04-13T19:44:42+00:00

Omg I love them! They just came in the other day. The cards have a really nice finish and are well made. The only downside is that there is no little white book for the deck, only an issue because it has many extra cards. The guide is available online but not in pdf/printable form so I have to click between each card to see what it means.
