CJ thank you 🙏🏼

[@suntoshineastrologyandtaro1144]

I wanted this deck so bad. It went in one day. I had to wait for a payday and it was gone in one day. I missed it!

[@the_hermits_cave]

Oh no!

[@suntoshineastrologyandtaro1144]

THE BACKS....GILDING!!! I am aching. I MISSED IT! So sad I don't think there is going to be a 2nd addition.

[@dayofthejackyl]

There will be a 2nd edition soon! She's almost done with editing the book. You'll have it soon!

[@emmajade7434]

Such a Beautiful deck........ I missed out on this one !! I hope Hay House picks it up like the Light Seer's Deck !!

[@MLaFura]

I love this deck and am very lucky to have it, a gift no less! Its stunning and I look forward to seeing what else they create.

[@catbookfashion]

what a gorgeous deck; sorry to have missed it

[@bluemoongoddess2370]

Beautiful deck. Very different. And nice hands Simons!!

[@kerripowell-holistic_lifecoach]

Has anyone heard if she'll be doing another edition or whether it'll got mass market? It's so beautiful! I'm gutted I missed out!

[@Rootedintherealms]

Yes mass market coming out soon

[@TaleRavenTarot]

I'm glad you were able to snag a copy! I just love mine, which came yesterday. I felt such an immediate connection with it. It's so magical.

[@the_hermits_cave]

It really is!

[@clarelantern]

I have looked through my deck but I can't use it. Too beautiful.

[@SunshineDawn7]

This deck is my most treasured possession ! Not kidding ! OMG I LOVE IT SOOOO MUCH !!!!!!! My husband bought this for me for a Christmas-Yule present two and a half years ago and let me say that it was worth the wait !!!!!!! I had participated in some of the Bonestone facebook group but i didn't watch every single one because i was waiting for the element of surprise ! I knew it was going to be Beautiful and Amazing but it Blew me away when i opened it :-) It was so worth the money and the wait ! I really hope they do a second edition for all the people who weren't able to get it the first time around because it is an absolute Treasure ! So glad you got a copy Simon ! Enjoy :-) Much love and many Blessings !

[@the_hermits_cave]

I have a feeling this may just get picked up by a publisher!

[@SunshineDawn7]

@@the_hermits_cave That would be great ! I know a lot of people are bummed they didn't get one, so that would be really nice :-)

[@oyasgirl7777]

I have my copy. It's still in the plastic. I'm just not sure about it now. Tastes change, I suppose. We'll see how I feel about it in a few weeks.

[@the_hermits_cave]

I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts if and when you break the seal 😉

[@Aileestar]

Hi Oya's I would like to buy the deck from you if you are no longer interesting in it 😄 I missed the order at the last minutes 😭still sad now that I couldn't get it. But if you decide to let it go, I will be happy to take it 😉😉😉😉

[@CelineAdobea]

This is absolutely stunning 😍 I'll love to add it to my collection of cards 🌺

[@mirandamoore1241]

Man that 5 of cups and 3 of swords were gut punches! The Kings actually reminded me a lot of the mary-el tarot. Really hope this deck makes it to mass production

[@ninokraine]

I’m so glad you got it and you are happy! ❤️

[@BoyDiviner]

Finally!!! I've followed the progress of this deck too but didn't manage to get it. Thank you for sharing your impressions of it

[@the_hermits_cave]

That’s such a shame! 😢

[@jenniferballswitchhouse37]

NOW I can finally watch your unboxing! Beautiful review, my friend! ❤️

[@the_hermits_cave]

I know what you mean, I had to hold back on so many unboxings 😝

[@lucastaylor415]

Beautiful, I wish she'd make a mass market version!

[@dayofthejackyl]

A mass market should be out by next year!

[@dawnnicholson9675]

I bought mine in August 2018 too... I'm so glad I did.. I absolutely adore this deck. It's really special and as I held this deck could feel the wonderful energy. The Bruxa card is Avalon.. 🌙Hope you enjoy your deck Simon.. I was waiting for your walkthrough as I knew you had this ordered too.. Thanks for sharing.. Many Blessings.. 🌿🙏

[@the_hermits_cave]

I hope I didn’t disappoint. Thanks for watching and letting me know about the Bruxa card! 🙏🏼♥️

[@dawnnicholson9675]

@@the_hermits_cave I always love your walkthroughs Simon.. always presented well and plenty of details about the cards.. Yes Ana portrayed Avalon as the Bruxa.. which means Witch. Many Blessings 🎃🍁🍂🌿🌙🙏

[@amandaspence8167]

It’s on eBay for $750 AU plus shipping. 😢

[@the_hermits_cave]

Crazy!

[@TripleMoonGoddess1111]

Beautiful deck 💖💖💖💖

[@judethat]

Nice analogy about it being a gift to yourself at some point in the future x

[@catbookfashion]

do you think Avalon will make a 2nd printing??

[@the_hermits_cave]

I think so, in time. She just needs a rest now for a bit

[@MsPrettyVermin]

She may but it won’t look like this, some the art may change, along with the card stock, packaging and book. But it won’t be soon, maybe in a few years

[@MsPrettyVermin]

It’s so potent - So glad I managed to snag one from her Etsy store before they were gone.

[@the_hermits_cave]

Woohoo! Enjoy 😉

[@judethat]

Me too

[@racheluk87]

The artwork is divine 💛💛

[@soulchariotstudio8715]

I’m sorry I missed out on getting this deck. 😿

Still waiting for mine to be delivered so thank you for the sneak peak 🙏💞

[@the_hermits_cave]

You’re welcome 😉

[@laurahaviland775]

Where did you get those great eyes ? Love them. Remind me of Bewitched.

[@AntoinetteTarot]

I absolutely love my copy 💜 It is my first 'indie' deck. Now I feel all grown up 😊 Yes I nearly purchased Ciro marchetti's red guilded deck too, that made me chuckle 🙏🌙

[@JensBalancedTarot]

I love Ana’s artwork so much! 😍 I don’t think I will regret the recent trade that is going to allow me to get this deck. 🥰

[@the_hermits_cave]

That was such a stroke of luck!

[@bengomas]

Wonderful walkthrough Simon :) I was looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it. The deck is absolutely sensational and magical, and I feel so blessed to have a copy. After missing out on the Indie Light Seers, I couldn't pass it up. It's quite interesting that you feel similarities with the decks - the Bonestone and Earthflesh carries the raw primal, instinctual earthy energy and Light Seers almost feels like a continuation/evolution of that. I'll pair them up in a reading and see how it goes :)

[@the_hermits_cave]

Great idea my friend, let me know how it goes!

[@justinmichaeltarot]

Simon you are up early this morning!!!

[@the_hermits_cave]

Not me!

[@justinmichaeltarot]

Wow this is beautiful! I’m wondering if this is for sale..

[@the_hermits_cave]

Only on eBay now apparently

[@elementsoftarot]

I’ve had mine for over a week now and I’m really enjoying it! The book is fantastic! I always love your walkthroughs, Simon! I watched even though I obviously know what the deck looks like 🤣. That says a lot, I think! ♥️

[@the_hermits_cave]

Aaaw thank you, that really does mean a lot 🙏🏼♥️

[@lauradaykin9289]

I love this deck, so glad i backed it from the beginning 😊😊😊 it was worth the wait

[@the_hermits_cave]

Right?! 😉

[@lisaamber1566]

Thanks for sharing. How do I purchase this deck and book please? I've tried the website that's on the box but can't buy. Many thanks. xxx

[@the_hermits_cave]

Sadly you can’t anymore

[@Quianna]

I want this deck badly. 😔 Stunning.

[@floressence2212]

Hello, I think that the hanged man is Thor, one eyed , hanged at Yggdrasil, the World Tree receiving the runes....Warm regards.

[@dropofgoldentarot]

I really hope that she reconsiders and makes another printing of this deck. The only card I find jarring is the magician. It's lovely and beautiful, but looks so much like Ian McKellen's Gandalf the Grey..it just throws me for a moment. And is the guide book referring to him as the Grey One? That just kind of echos the LOTR feeling. And I love LOTR', but finding it Gandalf in a "not LOTR tarot" is strange.

[@faithfullkadan2969]

In crushed, literally found kickstarer MONTHS ago😭!!

[@traceel.8194]

Is this deck for sale? I have been looking for where to buy it and it’s like no where to be found... I am in the US I don’t know if that is why but I really do love the art work so much...& I think it comes from a Beautiful soul...

[@traceel.8194]

I absolutely love the backs...they are different in a good way. This deck feels like a Breath of fresh air to me.

[@the_hermits_cave]

I believe it’s sold out for now!

[@traceel.8194]

The Hermit’s Cave Have you used it? Any update on it? Is it a deck you like just love? I’m still trying to find that deck for me. I feel the art in in this...won’t know anymore unless able to get it. But my search is having me collecting a lot of decks I tell ya!

[@judethat]

Love my copy had it about a week now

[@the_hermits_cave]

Isn’t it just beautiful!

[@HeavenlyOracle1]

Hello, do you know where to buy this now?

[@the_hermits_cave]

I believe it's now sold out, sadly

[@Cancer_Rising_Tarot__1]

For some reason the magician reminds me of Ian Mckellen. Perhaps his character from Vicious went on to become the magician? 😂

[@dayofthejackyl]

It is literally Gandalf.

[@gwendevittluminouspathdivi984]

Thank you!

[@m3cinco452]

Good the artist didn't turn the Kings into animals. This is a well balanced deck, energy wise.

[@HevertonMe]

Where did you buy it?

[@the_hermits_cave]

Direct from the creator via her Etsy shop... over two years ago.

I just got mine...I 'll come back and watch after I geek out.🤩🤩🤩

[@tamipie]

I almost bought the Encore tarot for the edges too! I pulled myself together at the last minute. Last time I bought a deck just for the backs I was sorry. It was the deck that had the same backs as the Vintage Wisdom tarot...anyway. Already having a really profound experience with the Bonestone. I told my husband about every single card...made it a campfire story. I think I might have lost him at the end...but tears were definitely shed. Loved your walkthrough. I think it might help along a second printing if enough buzz is out there. Happy Full Moon!

[@tamipie]

Ugh, I mean Vintage Wisdom Oracle.
