Another oracle deck today, this one I like to use alongside my Shaman’s Oracle deck.
Nice large 64 cards cards, work pretty well for the purpose I need them, which is for spiritual readings mostly. For some reason they refused to give me a clear picture to upload but you’ll get the general idea.
Ohhhh I like. I’ve been really pleased with my mermaid oracle deck, and the new dream tarot deck I got as well.
BUT, my true black delivered a clear message for myself two nights ago. If I hadn’t had physical witness, I probably would tossed it going noooooooooooo wayyyyyyyyy! lol.
Maybe its a sign or maybe just a coincidence! I know when a deck calls, I can’t mistake that feeling, so keep an eye maybe?
Yeah I hate when it does that, True Black may be a bit too harsh than a standard Rider Waite. I have my eyes on another Tarot now, but we’ll see if I’ll get it or not at the end.
I agree, though it gives pretty accurate readings, when I am reading for others. For myself it’s been hit or miss but this was spot on from the past, to where my biggest obstacles are myself and well I believe the outcome will prove accurate as well. It was a good reading, and the outcome was positive as well as striking- it chose to throw me a card, that I had chosen back in June to represent someone else, based on the astrological associations with the suit and the personality of said person.
I had a friend over that evening, and kept thinking I should do a reading, over the course of several hours, the thought just wouldn’t leave me. I read for him last time though, so when I pulled out the decks, I was like Is this for me or you? His response was it had to be for me, as I had given him the answers he sought last week lol.
It does give accurate readings indeed, if only the cards weren’t so stiff…! It’s being over a year I work with it and it gets on my nerves. To the point I found myself reaching for my old Rider Waite more often lately than my True Black. Have you found a way to make them a bit more…normal?
Yeah TMW a deck goes all
“Psssst. Pick me up. You know you want it.”
I haven’t tried specifically, I do bridge them when I shuffle and swap directions, they shuffle a little better than they did to begin with. I’ve had it since last August and they are still pretty stiff though. I think it’s the card stock they used, but honestly I like it though, as I know they won’t wear out nearly as fast as my other sets. Hell I already ruined the box the mermaid cards came in.
My biggest complaint honestly is that I can’t shuffle the entire deck all at once, my hands are too small.
Yeah lets pour some wine and talk about it, I have the same god damn issue. I can’t even riffle shuffle them I have to divide the deck in 3 or 4 parts and then I try to shuffle normally and it’s impossible
I just ordered an afterprint from China a few days ago… the Sufi Wisdom Oracle I got from there is much smaller than the official version, so I’m hopeful it’ll fit in my hands
The ones from China are indeed much smaller, but also don’t come with a booklet and the colours are dull. I bought only one from there, then I bought the original one
It’s my second oracle deck from there and it’s pretty nice quality tbh, I’m missing the booklet though… my first Prisma Visions Tarot from there was a horrible afterprint, but the second one was decent so I guess it’s a hit-or-miss (yeah, it was so horrible, I ordered a second one )
