WHAT WILL STAY AND WHAT WILL GO?! A VERY chatty THIS OR THAT (+ Pairings) This or That #16

I think the illustrations of the Pavlov harken back to illustrations of old fashioned children’s books.

[@atisoy83]

Why did you just sell me on a damn ember mug I never meant to buy lmao 😂

[@lostingothicmusic]

I use the Vintage Wisdom Oracle with the Relative Tarot and also the Tyldwick! Which I know sounds odd, but I feel like the Vintage Wisdom 'people' are echoes of those who lived in the mansion and their energies are present in the objects within the Tyldwick cards.

[@donnareadler]

The Animated Tarot is the deck equivalent of corduroy trousers. 😂🤣

[@ariffleintime]

Unicorns Journey with Earth Moon & Shadow gave me chills!!!

[@chelseadelo3260]

I definitely prefer the older versions of the victorian romantic tarot, without the cold stamping.

[@tellbee654]

Love my Velouria deck...it goes well with squidcake ( as you are discussing gorgeous pippy decks)

[@chikafitipaldis]

Oh! I'm obsessed with tarot pairing videos. Thank you for sharing! 😍I stayed and watched the entire video; I was doing my laundry with you! 😅XOXO

[@Northstartarot]

The one with all the roses, I would try pairing it with a black and white deck.

[@sugarbunify]

Fyodor Pavlov Tarot caught me by surprise, too! Got it on a whim and fell completely in love!! Became my ride or die. ❤ Feels so comfortable and homey and nostalgic. 🥰 Next time I'm in the MA area I really want to get a tattoo by the artist. ❤

[@thesavingsorceress]

As a newer subscriber who’s been binging all of your videos, this was my first time getting to participate in your polls for this series on the community tab. It was so much fun previewing all of these decks before the video! Ooh, I loved seeing the pairings with the deck you’re making too 🦄 The Wandering Soul and Unfolding Path look so good together as well! Loved this whole thing 🩵✨

[@miriamstarchild]

I always get so impressed with how you are able to choose like you do!

[@RumerHaven]

I’m always so giddy to see your decks face-off. 😄 Loved seeing your Beloved Dead walkthrough as well and hearing your thoughts on it there and here, as I’ve been working with it the past few weeks and really appreciating it! Definitely holds a different space than Vintage Wisdom for me, so I’m glad to see you keep both! You might not’ve eliminated as aggressively as you thought you would, but you did good!! Really tough choices, but you made wise ones. 😊

[@estelamaldonado279]

Not related but love the nail polish!!!

[@moonscarab]

Loved this video! It’s so much fun! Blessings and positive vibes 🙏👍🏼❤️

[@escapeartist1258]

I have the Animated Tarot too. I chose to sleeve mine because I knew if they weren't sleeved, I would never use the deck. Anyway I overhand shuffle and I just do half the deck at a time. Not the best, but it's manageable. I use this deck for "workday forecast" type spreads. I like the Adventure Prep spread from the guidebook but I also came up with a "One-Shot Workday Spread" (pretty sure I came up with this, hoping I didn't copy someone else by mistake). It goes: Party Comp: draw three cards; this is the 'party of adventurers' composition; this is what I am working with as far as my brain state and mindset. Random Encounter: draw one card; random encounter or challenge I might face today. And the for fun I might roll a d20 for a challenge rating for the random encounter card.

[@ChronicReader]

The animated tarot looks like it’s that grooved plastic that most of those moving pictures are made of and that’s an immediate deal breaker for me! The texture of those alone is like nails on a chalkboard and I literally shuddered when you shuffled them.

[@thrivingselfcarerenee]

Vintage Wisdom could possibly pair with the Dream Keeper's Tarot.

[@InnerMagpie]

I like the rainbow tarot with it. Try one of your unicorn decks

[@BohemianRoseTarot]

Yay! You are keeping both Hafiz and Love Who You Are! Hafiz IS my comfort deck but I really love and use Love Who You Are, too. Thanks for the comment mention! ❤

[@phillwernet9241]

i just think its a bit cute how you have a thing for functional boxes...that should be a total seperate video!!!!! haha PS..your deck....is going to be such a great reader!!!

[@mixxling]

I love the animated tarot's guidebook. It's probably my favorite tarot guidebook I've ever encountered.

[@kelvynmartin8688]

Your Tarot cloths looks amazing...Your Rocking it Peggy. Terri

[@MsNikkieMichelle]

I’m a talker too, I’m Italian from nyc so I talk and it’s very animated…lol. I have a wish list and it grows daily, hourly in fact and so many come from your videos. Love the energetic of color oracle, I love drawing and art is a passion hobby so the colors, the way there’s a swatch and the overall aesthetic tickles me in all of my ticklish places. I’ll be getting that one soon. The Pavlov deck is stunning, love it. It’s drawing closer & closer to the holiday season and instead of browsing for others I’m watching deck videos and adding more & more ones I want, lol. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Great video Lisa. Hope you & Peggy have a great weekend

[@pamelabatchelor9204]

great fun video of course. what is the deck you mention at 1:09:00 ish called Carte Postale???

[@thrivingselfcarerenee]

Tarot of Mystical Moments goes wonderfully with the Love Who You Are Oracle. I enjoy both Wisdom of Hafiz and Love Who You Are.

[@NancyMM3]

I love these videos! It’s so helpful to hear your thought process. Thank you for making them!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I enjoyed every moment of this! So funny about the two decks you bought after your visit, but I agree, the Energetics is much more versatile. Oh no, you might have just talked me into repurchasing the Vintage Wisdom! I forgot how good that one is. Also, the sneak peek pairing with your deck, I am here for it!! 🥰

[@Lisa_Papez]

Hehehe sooooo have you caved on Vintage Wisdom yet?!?!

[@toadstooltarot]

I enjoyed experiencing this even though I never consider the notion of pairing decks and there feels like a co-dependency trait to it that makes me uncomfortable. I like to feel like a deck can stand adequately on its own. That isn't to say I might not find it interesting sometime to experiment with the idea of trying to use paired decks together. I guess I'm sort of stuck in open readings of single decks and it's like adding a layer of using spreads or trying playing cards off against each other. I already feel like maybe there's enough language playing cards off against one another within a single deck. But you've given me food for thought. Deciding the value of a deck depending on whether or not it plays well with another....hmmm.

[@ladystrange8927]

Mayhaps story oracle + mons tarot ?🤔

[@fairlighttarot]

I had a feeling it would've been a close call with the Vintage Wisdom and the Beloved Dead! I love your mod of the Vintage Wisdom, it looks even more evocative this way. I'm going to try that too :)

[@MsNikkieMichelle]

Good news for those who missed out on earth moon & shadow oracle, Serefina will be releasing 2nd edition to Kickstarter next year, so that’s something to look forward to. :o]

[@RobynsReflections]

1:22:51 😂😂😂😂 I laughed so hard at this. It’s funny cuz it’s truuueee. Every single year. When will people just stop trying 🙃

[@Scp123-m7o]

Your unicorn deck looks lovely. I wish you the best of luck with your project 🎉

[@serenityjewel]

Earth, moon, and shadow would pair with Tarot of the Sidhe.

[@kelvynmartin8688]

Hi Lisa, Your deck looks Fabulous...I Love them. Terri from Australia 🦘🇦🇺💜

[@fattima7913]

Vision of the muse is a beautiful Oracle and I understand perfectly your feeling about it, this happened to me with The faceted Garden oracle is so pretty but ... nothing... just don't "speak" to me 😞 is just keeping dust now. I found more hard to find a oracle to like than a tarot deck 🤷🏽🤔

[@tellbee654]

Would story oracle work with ‘ Gentle thrills tarot’. I’ve just discovered it and it’s v vibrant! Mass market too

[@teslagoth9401]

You are gen X 😂 not Z

[@Lisa_Papez]

Yeah. that!

[@MsNikkieMichelle]

I am 36 born in 87 (last birthday for some reason I thought I was turning 37 not 36, yeah..lol) but I have no idea what I am? Lol.

[@christinasanders1177]

​@MsNikkieMichelle you are a Millennial/Gen Y

[@BOUJEEBOGANBADBITCHQUEEN]

I'm 41 nearly 42 and definitely a millinual

[@kelvynmartin8688]

I should double check my spelling before sending my messages. Sorry about previous message I just sent. I love the look of your New Tarot Deck. Can't wait to purchase a few copies....because I already know it going to be a collectors item. So I want to have my playing deck for me and one at least put away for good ...to collect. You should be so, so proud of yourself. Terri from Australia 🦘🇦🇺💜

[@observantori4893]

The Story Oracle has multiple meanings for upright and reversed. All are *grounded,* keywords or key phrases, which means no bible studying a guidebook, just to figure out a meaning. The other oracle just has one keyword at the bottom. The Story Oracle wins for me. 🤷🏽‍♀️ I have it. It’s a hidden gem. 😆 So underrated lol.

[@donnarion1147]

I noticed this time that there were a few more decks (so it seemed) that you maybe bought impulsively, "just because". How about making the pre-purchase equivalent of your Purgatory Drawer? I *have* noticed that in some of your Hot Takes videos that you do wait sometimes before backing indie/Kickstarter decks. Anyway, great video as always. Samhain, Halloween, All Saints blessings.

[@Magalie_la_millenial]

Hm, I’d be curious to see the visions of the muse paired with the witches tarot, you know, the one with all the tatas! Dawn Michelle has both decks right?

[@InnerMagpie]

Ohhhhhhhh energetics of color has more focused images, with a primary color and image instead of multiples of each. I love color and would buy both. I didn’t realize I was extra until I started purchasing decks. They are like lays potato chips, I can’t just buy one. 🤣

[@aryahavinfun5682]

Very Intriguing mix today! I think The Story Oracle might also work with Steven Bright's Spirit Within Tarot.

[@Lisa_Papez]

Ooooh I bet it would!

[@rifflinthemind.5793]

I'd be really curious if the process of making your own deck has changed the desirable traits you look for in a tarot deck or if you approach decks you own differently now.

[@gina4323]

I love when you do these videos! Have you ever thought of pairing Earth, Moon, & Shadow with Light Seers?

[@teslagoth9401]

Happy Samhain!🧡🖤🧡 🐦‍⬛🧡🖤🧡

[@Lisa_Papez]

Happy Samhain!!!

[@Tarotismagic]

I need your Unicorn' Journey Tarot in my collection 🤩 it is so gorgeous ❤

[@intenebrisveritas]

I know recommending decks on a video where your trying to cull your collection PROBABLY isn't helpful, but I feel like the issues you have with the Folklore Tarot isn't present in the Silhouette Tarot while being similar still. I can't really explain why the Folklore Tarot is like the Silhouette Tarot, but there's something about it's illustrations that remind me of a minimalist pip version of the Silhouette Tarot. Probably helps that the Silhouette Tarot has this fairytale vibe too!

[@MsPrettyVermin]

Team the Story Oracle with a more Flat Vector Graphic deck

[@rachelar6]

Fyodor was a great mass market quality for sure but for me the guidebook was lacking for me. As a long time reader I can grab a standard RWS and go but someone new bought this and kept reaching out to me to explain things so it's not beginner friendly. I do really hope US Games is going to up their game with this kind of card stock, packaging and hard cover books would be great!

[@khan7459]

I hope they stay affordable and stay away from unsustainable, bigger than necessary packaging and from forcing us to buy a full guidebook with every single deck, even if we don't need it nor want it.

[@travissmith6247]

With the visions of the muse Oracle have you tried using it with a minimalist tarot? If you want one that will match the look of them I would recommend the Midnight Black version of Soul Cards tarot. But I feel that would compete with your Fortuna tarot

[@travissmith6247]

You can also try to pair it with the nameless one tarot

[@starlaburst]

i don’t care what you say! that size tin needs to happen 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@Umurhan999]

About pastel magic vs penelope, I I would penelope even though I like neutral pips. That's because I prefer flgures taking action and generally having a readable gestures in the trumps and the courts. It's like they become different types of words, almost. For a modern example, I'm in love with Fifth Spirit, and if I liked its aesthetic more, probably would have considered penelope.

[@SalemElectro7]

I haven’t really used my earth moon shadow deck cuz I needed to sit on it for a min cuz I had kind of a bad xp with the creator when I preordered it. I love it, but needed time to separate the energy. I may have to just wait for your unicorn deck cuz I love the pairing! That’s kinda rad they match so well. I’m surprised by some of your choices, but that’s part of what makes these so fun. Idr if you have the relative tarot or not, but I’d be curious to see how that pairs with the beloved dead. The beloved dead is def on my wishlist. I’d also think the vintage wisdom would pair with the beautiful rebellion. This is so fun. I love when you do these. Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@naturewatcher7596]

None of them appealed to me. The Romantic deck was OK except the XXI card looks so vulgarian and doesn't evoke the feeling of peace and completion. I'll stick with my classical deck.

[@SylviaPlathInTheETHER4933]

New to your channel and just started watching... I keep feeling the pull towards the Pavlov deck - I just need to finally get it the next time I have some extra money 💫🤍 Looking forward to the rest of the video - very glad I found you.
