What are the TOP 100

[@shelbygivens1648]

I am so excited to learn that you have a channel!! I couldn't believe it when it popped up, and then said Marcus katz under the heading! I am actually reading book 1 of your series and have to say that I'm impressed by your writing and can't wait to read the next 2 books!! I wanted your trilogy forever my daughyer bought it for me for my birthday this year. I'm watching your 100 decks series!! So interested to see what decks you present !!! I was interested in the Psychards , saw them on etsy they're a fortune now haha

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Thanks for joining us on the channel! Is that the Thoth trilogy you are reading? I'm looking forward to the next videos in the 100 Top Decks series, it's been a joy sharing them all. And yes, some of the decks are sadly out of print - I thought the Psycards were still available, though? They have a site here ... psycardsusa.com/shop-psycards-products which I think is still active? Thanks for being along for the journey, Marcus.

Very nice! Love the classics

[@TarotandOracleHealing]

Thank you Marcus. I also believe each deck has a unique spirit. I have relationships with approximately 80 decks so far 🥰 I look forward to your future videos.

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

I agree with Crowley that every card is a "living stone" of the temple - and each and every deck! Looking forward to sharing manyu more videos, glad to have your company in the journey! Appreciated. Marcus.

[@ElliotOracle]

Completely brilliant. Thank you so much for the wonderful tips and info. 😊🙏

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Shopping the esoteric section at Scarthin Books in the day time. Coming across your good self mention Belper as a local in the evening. What a brilliant day.

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

My gosh! Yes, I was at Scarthin just a little while ago, as Cromford has a big part in my esoteric history - and a great little geeky shop packed with collectible comics, graphic novels and the like! A few weeks ago I actually filmed in Belper, Ambergate and Cromford for a future video where I will share some of my own story. Thank you for commenting and I am glad to have been a little part of your brilliant day! Marcus.

The Jolanda deck is coming out in a new version in June 2024. I may have purchased it... :)

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Ah! Thanks for letting us know, that's appreciated! It's a poppy and punchy little deck, which I use a lot! Marcus.

[@cheried4668]

I recieved the deck a few days ago so the new addition is out now. The cards have a white border. The card design is the same but the colors are much muted so it does not pop like the older version does. On some cards red is now tan or blue is silver. All in all they are still fun.

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

@@cheried4668 Ah! Thanks for letting us know! Appreciated.

[@6CrysNoir6]

Thank you! I'll like to obtain psy-cards and philosopher stone, if I had a chance of course.

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

I'd definitely recommend both these decks! The Psycards I think are still in print, but the Philosopher's Stone deck is sadly out of print. Thanks for commenting, appreciated! Marcus.

[@lavenderjewelsessences2251]

Thank you, very much. Greatly appreciated! ✨🕯️✨

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Thank you! And thank you for letting me know, also very much appreciated! Marcus.

[@TheOracleAndGrove]

The Oracle of Initiation is Amazing, happy to see it here

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

It is definitely an insightful divinatory artefact! :-) Thanks for your comment, appreciate it! Marcus.

[@thechartlady]

Oh this should be good! Rubs hands together 😂

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Thank you for the encouragement! More videos to follow in this series on divination decks and my other series on western esotericism. Appreciate you taking time to comment! Thank you! Marcus.

[@jasonshapiro9469]

Damn, i think of all the money ive spent on drugs, i could have 1000 decks, too

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

I’m reminded of the quote by the late English footballer George Best, “What did I do with all that money? I spent most of it on drugs, women and fast cars. The rest I just wasted.”

[@pdxlasher]

I had never even heard of most of these decks! Thanks for sharing them with us. I added a few of these to my tarot/oracle deck wishlist. It's great to see decks being featured that aren't the most common and most popular. (And I love your library! I have a similar kind of collection and I can't think of anything funner than talking about all of the decks and books that I love!)

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Thank you for the kind comments! I'll be continuing to share the decks and books that have personally impressed on me over the last 45 years, so hopefully there'll be a lot more avenues I can signpost! Very much appreciate having you along for the journey, thank you! Marcus.

I myself used to read from 3 decks for people in my younger years. Rider Waite for general stuff, Thoth Deck would call it my happening deck, as things would generally happen, and Vertigo Deck would bring up things people want to keep hidden. Unfortunately i gave the Vertigo Deck away, which i do miss to this day, loved the artwork on it. today i have taken a long step back from tarot, reading was getting a bit much and affecting my own life when not reading, i did have an idea for my own deck, few scribbled drawing's on notebooks. But i have to admit i did have an overall enjoyable journey with Tarot. Maybe someday i'll pick up my Rider Waite beside me and begin again. I always love the story of the first deck you created. Thank You for the video, was enjoyable and interesting.

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Thanks Tony for your kind comments and sharing some of your own story with the cards. I think the Vertigo may also be one of the decks I regret selling or gifting to someone in the distant past! I hope you are encouraged to begin again, divination and cartomancy have also been a good companion for me along the way, and I trust for others. Thanks again, Marcus.

Delightful trip through the decks... I loved the story you told about making your own majors. It is interesting to see how differently tarot jumps into people's lives. Tyldwick and Oracle of Initiation are key decks for me. I am thrilled to have the first edition of Tyldwick because, though I am happy Neil's brother has taken up the baton, I do feel that his vision for the artwork is a bit different. You have given me a couple of pig trails to follow. Hey-ho!

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Glad to have signposted some avenues for you! Agree with the Tyldwick Tarot, am also glad to have the first edition and it was sad to hear of Neil's passing. Marcus.

[@Tarotjackpot]

Spot on. Decks come to us when we need them and when we are attracted

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Absolutely! Maybe "when the reader is ready, the deck will appear"? Thanks for your comment, appreciated! Marcus.

[@teslagoth9401]

The Tyldwick pairs magically with the Haunted Manor oracle

[@MarcusKatzAuthor]

Ah, thank you for the recommendation, that deck looks really interesting and I see how it could pair with the Tyldwick, almost like an Oracular DLC for the Tyldwick Tarot. I'll add it to my "to buy" list! Thanks again for taking time to comment, appreciate it! Marcus.
