Woodland Wardens: A 52-Card Oracle Deck & Guidebook

I read a lot of reviews about this deck before buying and I was almost put off by the reviews about 'flimsy cardstock' etc but I am so glad I didn't listen. I love this deck, it is perfectly autumnul in design so yes some of the colours are darker but that is what makes it feel cozy and nurturing. I am not normally a fan of borders on decks either but for some reason it really seems to work on this deck, I thought when I bought the deck that I might trim the edges off but I just think they feel right as they are. As for the thin, flimsiness of the deck it is about the same as 'Chris Annes the light seers tarot' cardstock so if you have that deck and don't mind that then you are all good. My opinion of the artwork itself is that it is truly stunning, the attention to detail is wonderful, the vibe is warm, cozy and has an earthy nostalgic feel to it. Something about it makes me want to curl up next to a log fire in a comfy chair with a blanket and a hot drink. The guidebook too is straightforward and not overly fussy in descriptions which I love and leaves plenty of space for intuitive reading and yet the design, layout and artwork in the guidebook is truly a feast for the eyes. To sum it up the deck is low cost but gives a great return, this will have a happy place in my autumnul selection of tarot and oracle decks and I am glad I purchased it.

Beautiful, dreamlike illustrations. Clear little supporting booklet but it lends itself to intuitive interpretation best. Good card stock and easy to handle

After experiencing some friends oracle cards a while ago, I'd been wanting my own set: This is my first, and I'm extremely happy with them. The cards are of great quality (as is the box they come in) smooth and of a goodnsize. The print and illustrations are very beautiful. The colours and general aesthetics are of those I'm very drawn to, and I am pleased the quality supports these. However, the quality of the guidebook doesn't match that of the cards: it's small and flimsy, but sufficient. I can't imagine it to be long lasting though without tattering. I felt a good energy in the cards, and the first time using them I picked out a very significant card which held extra magic in it for me... As earlier that day, a friend had shared a link with me, and it was about The Cailleach, as it was the day (22/1/24) its believed she's here to take away the stagnant and the old. Before opening the link, we were messaging about something else and I'd said that I was stagnant (a word I rarely use!!). Not long after, I open the link and told her it's funny my word choice earlier! That I must've known it's a day about stagnancy...) Well.... Ten minutes later I go down the first oracle card and guess which card I pick.... Yup.. Stagnancy!!! The meaning was very appropriate too as I'm approaching a new chapter of my life. Was very pleased with what the gorgeous magical woodland creatures was telling me. Very helpful and comforting indeed.

Absolutely beautiful cards!

Beautiful deck. Connected with it instantly.

I already love this oracle, it looks and feels great, and the readings I've done so far, have been exactly what I needed to hear. Great value, and this is going to be a daily mindful companion for me. Highly recommended

Beautiful artwork and cards arrived in great condition. The guidebook is very detailed.

The creatures and flora on these cards are beautifully illustrated. I love the matte finish and really like the cards with the dark backgrounds. I’m less keen on the cards with artwork on pale beige, blue and green as I feel this is when the images sadly get a bit lost and look a bit drab. I’m also quite happy with the card stock. Perhaps it’s been updated or just that I’m not a collector of oracle (or tarot) cards so don’t have anything to compare them with. I love the leaves on the reverse of the cards and the design on the box. Although the pale cards are a bit of a disappointment I’m still happy I got this deck and feel it’s very reasonably priced. I might buy some small frames for the pale cards and hang them like mini artwork pieces on a dark wall.
