The energy from that deck is so strong for me. I have the light seers tarot and it's a joy to read with. The eyes in the images are so alive for me and that King of Wands is intense....in a good way! 😉 Thank you for sharing your beautiful decks with us.

When you said you were adding a deck that you have only had for a couple of weeks, I was hoping you'd say the Shimmering Veil! I was blown away when I viewed your walkthrough. This deck has jumped to the top of my wishlist. It just goes to show that it is possible to have a small, yet diverse and satisfying collection of decks, if that is what one chooses to do. I love that! I am about to do a little cull in order to make way for a few new decks (a few of which you featured today). This has given me that little nudge to get going! Thank you for sharing Simon. 🌼🌈🧡

You really made me want the Enchanted Everyday Tarot... I had seen it before but never really took a full tour of it and I like it much more without the boders too. I just don't know if I could do the kind of great job that you did at modifying the cards and I'd hate to ruin the deck trying. lol I also have now added Druidcraft Tarot to my wish list. I already knew I wanted Lightseer's Tarot, that deck really makes me think I'd read it really well. You know what is kind of funny though? The decks I've somehow found to read profoundly well for me are often decks I first reject because their looks don't appeal to me. ;)

You spoke of it recently in such glowing terms, that I would have been disappointed if The Shimmering Veil had not made it on your list - but, you didn't disappoint. And while a number of these would not be my choices, what made it so wonderful to watch are that you are passionate about these choices, and why they are, and in that way we get to know more about you. I am anxious to give this challenge a try as our tastes and favorites evolve and change over time. I think I will have some trouble with it, not because I can't whittle down to ten, but because I am so finicky, it will be hard, I think, to come up with ten that measure up as "my top 10 of all time!"

5 decks in your top 10 are in my top 20. I am not sure I could narrow it down to 10...mmm, maybe. Lol! At some point last year or the beginning of this year you had mentioned Deviant Moon in such a way that it struck me to try it again. I’ve had the limited rose edition for awhile but never used it. I thought the big book might help me connect so I purchased that and the borderless. It has been by my bedside ever since. It just clicked. The 6th deck that is a possible top 20 for me is weeks away from arriving from the UK which is The Shimmering Veil. I ordered it when it was shared in the FB group before it was sent to you so hopefully soon. I have high hopes for it that is for sure. :) Thank you Simon - it was nifty to hear the why’s and the joy in your voice.

I absolutely love this video of your top 10 decks of all time! I am newish to Tarot but have a similar aesthetic as you. I think you mentioned the Glastonbury Tor in relation to the Druid Craft Tarot? I just picked The Magician card from the Fairy Tarot this morning. He is just climbing down from the Glastonbury Tor where he has accessed additional wisdom and protection. I only have 3 decks but the Druid Craft is the one deck I’m really hoping to get. I feel the attachment to ancient earth. I was in England long ago and visited several stone circles, some on farmer’s property. The Merry Maidens was a small one that I remember. One of the other decks you reviewed, another pagan deck, I believe, is another deck I would like. The art is drawing me in totally. Thank you so much for your review, Simon!

Thank you for making this video. I dreamt of a little ghost boy when I was very young and he looked a lot like the figures in the Deviant Moon deck. I'd love to get to know that one better.

I have been converted to the Light Seers Tarot even if I never wanted that deck when it came out, I thought that theres too much hype about it. But now I love it... Now its my time to be converted to Deviant moon. At first, when I started to learn tarot, I watched videos and thought 'omg, such an ugly deck'.. Now I see that unique Patrick Valenza vision, but still I am in doubt would I love that deck to use or not. I am constantly adding it to my cart and then delete,.. This video added just one more plus to it, but still doesnt know.. Thank you, it was so fun to see your top 10!!

I am surprised to see that I have only two of these (Pagan Otherworlds and Light Seer’s). I do have a 1972 buttery RWS, but it’s not a blushing fool. Light Seer’s is certainly in my top 10.

The Lovers is my Life Path card too. That really makes me wonder what your romantic life has been. Love has always been my driving force and my biggest downfall.

If I could only bring one thing with me somewhere I would have to choose a tarot deck. But deciding which one would be the real struggle.

Oceanus I guess I could do it with my blushing fool but I’d be heartbroken to leave the others behind.

Yes, so agree - The Blue Box RWS Fool deck is my favourite. It is the deck that I use for all of my professional readings with clients. I am blessed to have 3 x blue box decks including the rare tuck box version.😍🔮

"Deck of the bastard tarot" is a mix of the Raider Waite, the Etteilla and the Marseille... Too bad they didn't do that but with illustrations in the same aesthetic style.

Does your friend Kelly sell those bags?!!! I need them 😂😂😂 if you could link me please !!!! - also I hate the stigma around the Deviant Moon deck. Such a deep powerful deck. I always tell people some decks are sassy & like your best friend telling you you’re stupid 😂 and other decks are like your therapist, trying to get to the root of the problem. The Deviant Moon deck is really a therapist deck. Not mean, not sassy. Just really gently telling you the underlying issues.
