EARLY LOOK at the This Might Hurt Special Edition (& comparison to the original indie version)

[@thrivingselfcarerenee]

With gilded decks, I've found that if they're clumpy when shuffled, try shuffling it the other way up. So try riffle shuffling with the faces up instead of the backs up. Often it won't clump when you shuffle with the other side up. It's something about how the gilding is applied and/or how the cards are cut. I didn't get the special edition, but I'm super excited to get the standard mass market when it comes out later this year. I've got the indie version and I love it so much I want a back up mass market deck.

[@Lisa_Papez]

Great tip, thank you!

[@michellerussell413]

Wow--this looks stunning! Still, that's about US$100 . . . and I already own the indie deck with a backup copy (the only deck I have a backup of). I wouldn’t use the reading cloth, either. So the question is, do I spend the money just for the oracle deck and a nicer guidebook? Hmm . . . have to think about that. Thanks for the walk-through, Lisa . . . This Might Help! 😉

[@Lisa_Papez]

That's a fair consideration for sure!

[@thrivingselfcarerenee]

I debated the same thing. I ultimately decided to wait for the standard mass market release coming later this year. The oracle deck not being colored like the Tarot deck ultimately ended up being a deal breaker for me.

[@mafurock33]

That companion oracle is brilliant.

[@theallisoncompendium]

I LOVE that the mass market is coming out in glossy stock! The colors look so awesome and crisp when compared to the indie matte.

[@brknarow22]

What a great oracle idea! Joining the masses in being disappointed that we will not be able to purchase it. I hate to admit it but I have three indie copies. Don't tell Peggy! 🌻

[@paganspaige1356]

I had the best surprise today (5-8-23) this showed up on my doorstep .I don't remember ordering this ,but am so happy I did .Am so excited to work with these decks.

After for about 6 min into the video, I went and purchase the special edition of This Might Hurt Tarot. This tarot has been in my wishlist for a while, so I thought this is the perfect timing to get myself a deck, and, paired with a oracle. How nice. I even got a coupon for free international shipping from the UK. Thank you for sharing this video.🎉

[@Lisa_Papez]

OOooooooh! Sweet deal on the coupon!

[@lunaria33]

I would buy it just for that box, holy holo! 🌈😍 lol but I already own the indie edition and I'd much rather use my indie matte deck then a glossy version of the deck. thanks for the review!

[@mafurock33]

The color correction looks better on the mass market, the indie looked a little overly strong in the yellows.

[@Lisa_Papez]

Yes! I'm really impressed with the colors on this new version!

[@mogvgb]

I reckon you could use the gloss one on camera - most of the time there was no reflection at all

[@Lisa_Papez]

You know you're probably right!!! :D

[@somewhereintimetarot1508]

Lisa I'm so excited I always wanted This Might Hurt Deck, I just Ordered the Limited Edition. I'm also going to also order the Regular Mass Market Version too, because I already know I'm going to Love this Deck and it's going to become a work horse in my collection. So I will be using my Limited edition for reading for myself and Mass Market for my other readings. Thank you Hugs Caroline 😘❤️

[@nana-qo5hg]

I can't believe that right when I've been thinking about getting the mass market version of this deck, I see this a minute in from posting! Definitely got the feeling that I have to keep the deck in my top 3 for the next deck I'll get

[@brylaw]

I really wish they'd release the oracle as a standalone! I don't need another This Might Hurt tarot deck, and I can't justify spending $100 USD basically just for the oracle deck. Sad to be missing out on this one!

[@Lisa_Papez]

That's totally fair! I will say there are definitely other good oracle pairings for TMH! :)

[@MaterMotely]

Thanks for the review. I also absolutely love this deck. But the gloss kills buying the mass market copy for me. One of my favorite things about the original is the soft, matte feel of the cards. I will just spend a bit more money and buy myself a backup copy of the indie deck.

[@willowhart2224]

Wow, I think I like this version a bit more than the indie. That is certainly a first for me. I do wish the box was a tin like the Seed & Sickle special edition, but maybe they wouldn't have been able to do that gorgeous holographic on the cover which I'm all for. It seems like the cards aren't as thick as the Modern Witch Tarot which is nice. Where I'm stuck is that I want this special edition except I would prefer the non-gilded version of the tarot deck. I really don't need three copies of this deck, but I may purchase both and rehome the gilded version. Otherwise, in my opinion they did an amazing job! Thank you for sharing this walkthrough with us!

[@OldSouthernSoul]

Pre-ordered this a while ago. So excited for it to arrive! Thanks so much for the preview.

[@alifefullofsimplicity]

29:35 Yeah, the standard edition has the extra card too.

[@MagicalMundaneTarot]

The thing that sort of made chuckle is I rehomed Liminal 11's Luna Sol because it was filling the same spot as This Might Hurt and now TMH is going to be published by Liminal 11 as well. 😅 I won't be getting the MM version but I do hope that eventually they will publish the oracle by itself later, like what they did with the Citadel deck. It was the exclusive deck for Seed & Sickle limited edition and now its being released separately.

[@Lisa_Papez]

We can hope!!!

[@sem6x3ag]

They did such a great job. Looks fantastic.

[@Lisa_Papez]

They really did!!

[@AmethystAscension]

This deck looks wonderful! Especially for a Mass Market. 🌞

[@dianad7759]

Lol…lmao…Did you breath throughout this video? Did you ever notice the more excited you get the faster you talk??? I laughed all the way though the video (in between the oohs and awes). Beautiful deck!

[@Lisa_Papez]

LOL yah i'm a fast talker and DEFINITTTTELY talk faster when excited LOL

[@tarotnattplans]

Well I was avoiding this like nothing before since I love my indie version but you convinced me other wise, and I hit preorder pretty quicks i have her original black reading cloth, wonder if I could see them together for a double sided, I will keep my indie for me and mm for friends and hopefully clients one day

[@Carolina_rain]

I've never pre-ordered anything until now!

[@Lisa_Papez]

Woah really!? That's awesome! I don't think you'll be disappointed - such a fun/special experience unboxing!

[@danni8176]

I was just going to get the deck but now pre ordered the special 😂🎉 I couldn't pass it's my favourite deck....

[@Lisa_Papez]

My fave toooooo!!!!

[@eeyore13]

Oohhh yay! Special edition looks stunning, your fault Lisa, have ordered!

[@Lisa_Papez]

Oops!! 💸💸💸

[@eeyore13]

@@Lisa_Papez I have wanted one of their limited editions for a while and I love the indie edition of this might hurts 😊

[@cedric6720]

Dear Lisa What are your best websites to discover and order new tarot and oracle decks ? Many thanks

[@FallSilverMoon]

I got an email from Book Depository saying they are closing April 23 2023.

[@Lisa_Papez]

I heard! :(

[@DirkvanBaren]

Do more people WRITE on their cards?!?! 😳

[@cardinalspiritreadings]

I want want want this sooooo bad. $100USD for special edition or wait for mm $24? I am so disappointed I can only get the This Might Help Oracle if I order special edition. 😭 I truly enjoyed the in depth comparison of your indie vs the MM Special Edition.

[@Lisa_Papez]

Aw i'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@6Haunted-Days]

Exact kind of deck I’d have wasted $ on when I first started buying decades ago 😂 so RELIEVED that phase is long over and I know what I respond too…..much to much of a “beginner” deck or vibe to me….
