My Problem with AI Decks

Have you seen them? They're in the paid ads you scroll by on your Instagram feeds. They're in the emails Kickstarter sends out as projects you might like. They may even be shared among the members of your tarot facebook groups. What are they? Why, they're tarot and oracle decks whose art has been generated …

The Book of Seances Review

Claire Goodchild, of Black and the Moon, doesn't just make fantastic decks. She also writes fantastic books. I just finished reading an advanced copy of The Book of Seances: A Guide to Divination and Speaking to Spirits, and this shit is amazing. It centers on, obviously, seances, but it doesn't stop there. It's got basic …

My New YouTube Channel

Seemingly out of the blue, I started a YouTube channel. I figured I'd take a minute to talk about the why's, my fears, and what I hope to do with it here because, well, writing is still my favorite medium. TW/CW: long COVID19 symptoms, depression The "why" is a weird one so buckle up: I've …

The Sad Lesson of Beautiful Decks vs Decks that Speak to You

Two of my great tarot loves are naturey decks set in lush forests, and dragons. So when the Smoke, Ash, and Ember Tarot came out, I knew this was going to be my ultimate deck. This, I thought, will be the deck to end all of my deck-seeking behavior. My love affair with this deck …

Tarot Journalling You’ll Stick With

My relationship with tarot journalling has been rocky at best. I'll watch one of Boho Tarot's videos of her beautiful scrap-booky tarot journal, somehow convince myself that I'm going to do that too, do it for three days, and then stop. Not just once. I've done this repeatedly. So how, suddenly, have I been journalling …

An Apology to the Wild Unknown and a Revelation

Sometimes I get shitty. Sometimes I make mistakes. Sometimes I blame things for happenings that are not its fault. I've made snide remarks about the Wild Unknown Tarot for years (yes, I've had it the entire time) and I'm here to tell it, publicly, that I am sorry. The original indie version of the Wild …

The Scent of Lemon & Rosemary Book Review

Let's talk about The Scent of Lemon and Rosemary (Working Domestic Magick with Hestia) by Raechel Henderson. There's not much known about the Greek goddess Hestia, so maybe that's why I never meet anyone else who works with Her. Needless to say, I flipped out when I saw that this book was coming out. Being …

Roots and Wings Oracle Deck Review

I'm ashamed to admit that I spent months going back and forth on whether I wanted this deck. I put it in my Etsy cart and removed several times. I watched flipthroughs and reviews. I saw people use it on Instagram. My question was always this: am I really going to use this even though …

Enchanting Jewelry

I love scrolling endlessly through estate rings on Ebay and buying myself a crusty, tarnished little trinket for twenty bucks or less. There, now that's a thing you know about me. What do I do with them once I have them? I enchant them of course. I don't see this witchy little technique talked about …

Terra Qi Goddess Oracle Review

This is a 44-card deck by Prism & Fleur. It's an independently published, digital collage style goddess deck. I feel like I've been waiting forever to find the perfect goddess deck, could this be The One? I'll admit I tried my best to ignore this deck for a while. Do I really like real-people collage …
