I am so sorry about the sometimes wonky focus on this video, I had already filmed this once & honestly didn’t have any more spoons to give it a third chance so I hope it can be good enough still to be watched. What I say still stands so thank you for your understanding & I will try and avoid technical issues in the future 🥲 merci ♥️
I totally agree with what you said about intuition needing to be informed by some structured knowledge. I always think you wouldn't tell someone's who's never driven to get behind the wheel just because they've been in a car, so why do we expect new tarot readers to be able to intuitively pick out card meanings?
That is a good point! I think intuition can really have such a powerful impact on the reading & we can get hints that go wayy beyond the meanings but for me it helps to have the structure at least for tarot because of the system in place but I guess it is personal preference & everyone is different 😄 But I also pick the deck to read with based on intuition so I guess it's an organic process between the two sides :)
Aww yesss the Dark Goddess guidebook is where it's at! The Gaian tarot book is so lovely as well (love that deck!), and in the same vein the Herbcrafters Tarot guidebook is part of the whole experience as well. I love how some decks I trust the imagery and use my tarot knowledge to weave together meanings, and then others like these, using the guidebook is such an integral part of the experience of using the deck. Such a great video, so fun hanging with you for an hour this morning! xx
Thank you so much for watching Theia 💕 And yes I totallyyyy agree some decks are such standalone and some I feel like the guidebook makes the whole experience & it's so interesting how some of those we have similar experiences & others super different too! I am currently using herbcrafter tarot this month, super interesting. Not all the plants are local to me so it was a bit hard at first to make a connection but I am finding personal correspondences & finding my groove with it slowly but surely. Hope you are doing well & sending sunshine from across the globe 🌞🌻😘
I was just thinkning that I wanted some information about good tarot deck guidebooks and recommendations, but didn't find any good videos about it. And then you come and save me with this amazing information!! Thank you so much, I really love your content and all that you share with us.
I clicked buy now on the Cosmic Tarot, that is just fascinating! I'm looking forward to delving into that. I was curious about the Illuminati one, but was a little more cautious at $31.99, but it defintely looks in depth at 420 pages. I had a chance to work with the Animal Totem Tarot book by Leeza Robertson and for the price, it is incredible! The Gaian Tarot looks so interesting. I totally agree with you about Tarot spreads being so lazy in guide books. Totally, we all arleady know how to do a daily draw and a 3 card spread.
So happy you could find some decks/guidebooks that could be of interest to you. I hope you will enjoy the Cosmic Tarot 😉And yes it's so nice to find guidebooks with different spreads, I understand for someone picking their first deck it is good to get the classics but I love it when they go outside the box a bit. Thank you for watching !
Yeppppp some books really MAKE the deck whole, doing these RWS comparison videos lately I've read the entire book for new decks to give the audience the best overall idea of the cards. Which has sparked something in me and now I want to go through and read all the books for all my decks 😅 I always say Forhaxa is my favorite but I never read the whole book. I would read from it whenever I would get a new card that I never looked at the book before, which makes it a new experience but I'm just going to have to sit down and do it 😅
I love that about comparing the guidebooks that's great! That's going to be a super fun project to read all the books from your collection 😍I have a couple of them from recent decks to read & I am so excited 😃 thank you so much for watching & have a lovely day🌻
The complete guide to Tarot Illuminati book is 456 pages in English, on Amazon in the US for $20.95 and available on Kindle for $17, so I assume that's the very big book. If you purchase the kit with the book it's 160 pages, if you get the cards only they are not gilded, thinner cardstock and a tiny book
Hahaha it keeps going down as I am typing replies to comments,; at this rate it is signing its death wish I can't deal 😡😂😂😂thank you so much for watching
Loved your beginning 😂 Totally agree about the Light Seer's. I had the indie at one point, and Chris-Anne did a marvelous job of truncating down the bigger guide book to the smaller one. I've heard the same thing about the Wild Messengers guidebook being a fantastic standalone resource, so I'll have to put it on my wishlist. Thanks so much for this video, Marine--very helpful!! 💜
I am still annoyed at my chair 😂Ohh I bet the indie guidebook was so good but I am glad to hear you feel we have the essence of it in the mass market edition because I know I will never see the indie version in real life it is like a unicorn now 😅 Thank you so much for watching Juli, I hope you are well & sending hugs 😘
Recommend Sufi tarot beautiful deck and the guidebook not only gives the card meaning but is perfect for self growth with thought provoking questions for self awareness and beautiful affirmations I recommend
Wait, the cosmic tarot has a seperate guidebook?? I’ve had that deck for years and always thought the little white book was so limiting! That Wild Messengers guidebook… I really want to have it! I agree on the Mary El guidebook, one of my most cherished ones! This is such a great video, very informative, thank you!
Yes the cosmic tarot guidebook was such a treat when I found it, honestly worth the ebook kindle price just to get a bit more insight into the perspectives from the authors because I agree the little white book always left me wanting more. Thank you so much for watching I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙏
So many great guidebooks. I am particularly interested now in The Gaian Tarot and Dark Goddess Tarot. A tarot guidebook I have and find as indispensable as the deck is the Dreams of Gaia Tarot.
Thank you so much! And yes you are so right this is an amazing guidebook I really enjoy it too! I should have totally included it in my video so I will have to put it in my part 2 😁
Why do I always like, watch and love your videos immediately but then go into complete lurker-mode when it comes to commenting 🤦🏻♀️😅 Anyways: really loved this video, Marine!! Really well put together and loved to hear your thoughts on all those guidebooks: a good guidebook really brings a tarot deck to a whole new level 🙌 (Also: that “rude! you’re rude! 🤨” to your chair made me laugh out loud 😆)
Awww thank you so much 💕 And I totally get it I do the same sometimes with going into lurker mode after watching & liking I can't judge 😂 thank you so much for watching 😘
There are a lot of interesting decks there. It's so good to get a focus on the guidebooks. There is so much information relating directly to the deck and to Tarot, who are these people not reading them? Never mind, I guess it's different strokes for different folks, etc. Anyway, I love to know about the guidebooks and about good Tarot books in general. More books is more better! 🥰 Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it.
Thank you so much I am glad you enjoyed it! I am realising I missed off a couple so I probably do a part 2 at some point. Like you say more books the better 😄
Fantastic video! I have several of the decks, going to check if I have the Kindle version of the books. I didn't realize how juice the Gaian tarot's guidebook is, wow. 📚
I really enjoyed this video 😍. I agree with you, we should read all the guidebooks. Because is the deck 's soul and everyone has their own intention. 🙏🏾❤ Namaste
Thanks again! I really am glad to find this one and I recently started to explore the BIG mass market book particularly for guidebook purpose. I really enjoyed the Animal Totem’s guidebook from animal nature feature to how we can adopt to each of arcana, love the journaling prompt! Wondering if you can please do an updated video on this topic❤🎉thank you!
Thr Cosmic Tarot guidebook is available on Abe Books. I just ordered a used copy. I'm happy to get a bigger guidebook because I love this Tarot (yes, under rated).
Cc ça fait un petit moment que je te suit et j'avoue que c'est la première fois que je commente et j avais pas encore vu cette vidéo .je voulais te dire merci car je suis une amoureuse des livrets qui pour moi est aussi important que les cartes quand je choisi un nouveau tarot . je trouve tellement dommage qu'ils soient souvent mit de côtes.Avoir les bases et voir le points de vue des autres sur les cartes est très important pour moi.❤❤❤
Coucou! Merci beaucoup ça me fait super plaisir. C’est toujours cool de trouver d’autres guidebook lovers 🙌d’ailleurs il faudrait que je renouvelle cette vidéo pour l’année prochaine ça m’a donné l’idée merci ☺️ . Merci à toi d’être là 💖😘
Merci Marine pour ta perspective et tes commentaires. J’ai trouvé ta présentation très intéressante et ton point de vue, fort pertinent. Bonne semaine! 😎
Oh my gosh-THANK YOU for this video. As an obsession-compulsive-researcher-Aquarius, this speaks to me so much. I care about reading all. the. things. 😂 I was super happy to hear Light Seer’s at the top of this video, and it really made me confident that you are on my level, and then I had to watch all the way to the end. Super excited to add the rest of these to my list 🙏
Thank you so much I’m so happy you found the video useful 🙏🏻✨ haha I feel you about reading all the things it’s a must for me too 😄 thank you for watching !
I simply loved your video. I am a beginner in this wonderful journey and I do believe that guidebooks must be an essencial part of a tarot deck. You gave me a lot of insights about which deck to buy next. Thanks for sharing. I also love your french accent
Aww thank you so much I’m so glad you could get some useful information from this video. I hope you’re enjoying your tarot journey and that it will bring you lots of insight and joy 😁
Great video, Marine, thank you. I also love the guide books to my decks. I totally agree with the light seer's and the animal totem as these are the two I own off of your list. The animal totem book is amazing and since I just use it for one card pulls I don't care about the 78 different animals. You made me very curious about the gaian tarot book. A guide book of your first category for me is the raven prophecy tarot. I love both, deck and book. As well as the star tarot.
Oh yes that is such a good call I really enjoy the raven prophecy tarot as well! I need to read the books It definitely would make me enjoy the deck even more but even on its own it's a great reader! thank you so much for watching 🤗
I agree about the Light Seer. Do you know Gentle Tarot? It has a beautiful guidebook, and a full version is about to be published. I also love the art.
Love this video! I have been doing a deep dive study of the Light Seers and I haven't even been paying attention to the affirmations! 🤦🏾🤦🏾 I downloaded the Cosmic Tarot and the Tarot Illuminati guides. And now I can't stop staring at the Shimmering Veil Tarot. I have seen the box before but I didn't pay attention. The artwork looks stunning. I added the Animal Totem to my wish list as well....I love the Mermaid Tarot. I am sure the Animal Totem will be amazing as well. Thank you for this vid!
Thank you so much 😍 The light seers is amazing isn't it? I have been using the affirmations as starting point to create little spreads & it's been really helpful. I hope you will enjoy the tarot illuminati & cosmic tarot! My favourite part of the illuminati guide is the first part of each card where it's as if the character in the card is speaking directly to us, it's so good & totally made me look at some cards in a whole new way ! Shimmering veil is a very deep & intuitive deck, it is my top deck for spiritual work. It really feels like peaking through the veil 😊 Thank you for watching & have a lovely day🌻
This was a very enjoyable video 👍😊 thank you Marine 💜 A few guidebooks that stand out in my memories - Shadowlands is wonderful. It's like a novel about the adorable critters in the deck. Forest of Enchantment is sheer pleasure to read IMO. Oops my broken brain has forgotten the others I was going to mention 😖
Ohh you know I almost picked up Shadow land last year mostly for the guidebook 😄 The deck looked super cute too but the guidebook looks so awesome it was what made it me consider it; I am still thinking about it maybe at some point I will give it a go because it does look enchanting ! Thank you so much for watching Deb & I hope you're doing well 😘
Yay, guidebooks!! Thank you for sharing your favorites with us and for the helpful tips! I've never really been attracted to the Cosmic tarot, but I'll look out for the kindle book. 🙂 I LOVE the guidebook for the El-Goliath, it's just so good. And I've been hoping for the Wild Messengers book to come back in stock for weeks haha (again, something I discovered on your channel, I know you've mentioned it before and every time I'm like damn, I need this book in my life! 😅). Thank you again for all the work you put into this and have a great week! 💙✨
Thank you so much my friend 🙌 Yes I think you would LOVE the wild messengers it really is something else. I think they are preparing a new edition right? I hope so, this book deserves to be spread to the world! Thank you so much for watching, j'espère que tu passes une belle semaine & gros bisous de la Réunion 💕🌻🙌
Wonderful recommendations Marine. I hope you are doing well. Guidebook’s have added another layer to my practice. It gives you more information about the deck itself. You can bring this information into the readings you do for yourself or others. 🏖🏖🏖
Yes I agree they really have expanded my mind too & I think they are always worth a read you never know what golden nugget lies inside. I am doing a bit better thank you just taking each day as it comes, I hope you’re well too, big hugs to you ♥️♥️
Thank you so much for sharing! I hope you're doing well, Marine. 💕 I'd love to get ahold of Wild Messengers guidebook and tarot and the Shimmering Veil. I love your videos hon! I would love to see you do deep dives on specific cards and representations from different decks that solidify that meaning. It would be very insightful to hear what you think and we all learn from each other. Have a lovely weekend. : )
Hi Sarah thank you for the idea I will write it down & see how I can make that happen but I love the idea of us learning from each other. I think Wild messengers they are preparing a new edition so I hope the book will soon become available because it's awesome and deserves to be read by many ! Thank you so much for watching & have a good day 🌞
@@thewavesofyoursoul You could even call them “Deep Dives” to go with the ocean theme 🙂 I’d follow that series for sure. Always good to get another perspective and compare interpretations of our cards. Good luck with all your future videos hon 🤍
This was such a good videoooooo! I’m often attracted to decks by their guidebooks haha. My favorite guide books from the decks I own are the Wildwood Tarot, the Gift of Life Tarot (which I got after I saw it on your channel) and the Celtic Spirit Oracle by Nicola McIntosh, which I just got and I’m in love. The guidebook is sooo beautifully written! 💚 A guidebook I’m reading and loving (though I don’t own the deck) is the Numinous Tarot Guidebook. 💚 You know which book I’m super curious about? The True Heart Intuitive Tarot Guidebook, Sylvain always praises that book in his videos! Another one is the Tarot of the Divine. I’m interested in that deck mainly for the guidebook AND the companion storybook!!
Omg the gift of life that is soooo good I should have definitely included it in there 😍. I will probably make a part 2 because I realised I have missed a couple 🤔The numinous tarot is on my wishlist for sure the deck looks brilliant & if you tell me the guidebook is awesome too that is another huge point for me ! I love guidebooks too haha they can really make our tarot experience even better. Thank you so much for watching & your recommendations 💕
@@thewavesofyoursoul Omg I was thinking I need a part 2 for my comment hahaha because after I wrote it I was like BUT WAIT. I also love The Muse Tarot and Runik Tarot guidebooks 😂 Yes! What I love about the gift of life book is the “real life moment” section. It takes the deck to another level ❤️ And the Numinous tarot explains each card in a very real-life everyday-life type way, which I love… it also gives a lot of journaling questions so you can really dive deep. (Whether you have the deck or not).
I don't know if you mentioned it, but you can buy a PDF version of the El Goliath yaaay! I definitely prefer buying standalone books over the deck itself 🤗
Ohh I didn’t know that that’s good to know thank you! For people who are unsure if they would bond with the deck it sounds like a great alternative to see what it’s about before committing to purchasing the deck 🤗
My heart is struck on the Mary el tarot but every video I've watched till now says to not get it as a beginner deck so I'm trying to find something else 😭 I'm just drawn to darker decks like the lubanko and the black tarot in general and all the beginner decks people recommend look way too colourful and cheery to me Also, the shimmering veil tarot is gorgeous! God why are they not beginner decks 🤭
Omg if you are drawn to the Mary el or any other deck and you feel it in your gut that it’s for you… GO FOR IT ! I give little recommendations for beginner friendly based on the guidebook and how far away it can veer away from more traditional decks purely because all tarot books/ courses/ podcasts etc usually are based on one of the traditional systems like RWS/ marseille or Thoth but they are never meant to tell people what they should or shouldn’t do. I’m the biggest believer that everyone path is different and that your intuition is your best compass so if you feel drawn to the Mary el for your first deck then hell yes it is awesome 😁 you are being called to work with those decks for a reason, your intuition will not lead you astray. also lubanko is one of my all times faves so that is an excellent choice in my humble opinion haha. My first deck was not a beginner deck according to some people, it was the tarot of the hidden realm, mostly close up faves no traditional symbolism etc but it was perfect for me at that particular time. I ended up picking a RWS as my second deck later on because I wanted to do a little historical deep dive and understand where things came from but it wasn’t necessary if that makes sense. So all of that to say I think you should trust your gut 😁
@@thewavesofyoursoul Well I'm going to go with my gut instinct then. Let's see where the new calling for tarot takes me. Anyway I believe my scorpio sun will appreciate hard hitting intense truths of darker decks haha Also I love the tarot of the hidden realms and I believe the artist is coming out with another deck soon this year so I'm holding out for that
I think they are planning the next édition but I don’t know when they will release. I bought it directly on their website Wild messengers tarot so that’s the place I would recommend checking to see any updates 😊
Thank you! I always love love to see your videos. I am on youtube to bring awareness to the racial injustice I experienced in Los Angeles California. I am a Tarot Card reader, I am experiencing pain, so it is always a welcomed distraction to see your videos when they pop up. I brought the Mary El Tarot based on your suggestion. I haven't connected with them yet.I plan to read the entire book before I try to. I read intuitively. I am an empath. Can I suggest the New Era Element and the Black Tarot deck. They are two of my favorites. I notice you like modern diverse decks. Again, thank you so much🙏🏾
Thank you very much. I am so sorry that you are going through so much pain & sending big hugs your way 💕 I think the mary el is wonderful for intuitive reading but it definitely helped me to read the stories & myth linked to the cards to open those doors for me so I hope it can help you too. I have the new era elements it is so good you are right! Some cards definitely are a bit gut wrenching so I have to be in the right mindset but it is such a sharp shooter in terms of reading. I will have a look at the black tarot tarot because I really love modern diverse decks! thank you so much for your comment & take care 🌻
I am so sorry about the sometimes wonky focus on this video, I had already filmed this once & honestly didn’t have any more spoons to give it a third chance so I hope it can be good enough still to be watched. What I say still stands so thank you for your understanding & I will try and avoid technical issues in the future 🥲 merci ♥️

I don’t have the gentle tarot but I heard the guidebook is wonderful ! And it does look beautiful 😍
I died laughing when you said I don't know if I'm at the zoo or at the safari lol Thanks for the info Loved it!
🤣🤣 thank you so much for watching 🦓🦁🦭🐼🐯
Love this video! I have been doing a deep dive study of the Light Seers and I haven't even been paying attention to the affirmations! 🤦🏾🤦🏾
I downloaded the Cosmic Tarot and the Tarot Illuminati guides. And now I can't stop staring at the Shimmering Veil Tarot. I have seen the box before but I didn't pay attention. The artwork looks stunning. I added the Animal Totem to my wish list as well....I love the Mermaid Tarot. I am sure the Animal Totem will be amazing as well. Thank you for this vid!
Thank you so much 😍 The light seers is amazing isn't it? I have been using the affirmations as starting point to create little spreads & it's been really helpful. I hope you will enjoy the tarot illuminati & cosmic tarot! My favourite part of the illuminati guide is the first part of each card where it's as if the character in the card is speaking directly to us, it's so good & totally made me look at some cards in a whole new way ! Shimmering veil is a very deep & intuitive deck, it is my top deck for spiritual work. It really feels like peaking through the veil 😊 Thank you for watching & have a lovely day🌻
This was a very enjoyable video 👍😊 thank you Marine 💜
A few guidebooks that stand out in my memories - Shadowlands is wonderful. It's like a novel about the adorable critters in the deck. Forest of Enchantment is sheer pleasure to read IMO. Oops my broken brain has forgotten the others I was going to mention 😖
Ohh you know I almost picked up Shadow land last year mostly for the guidebook 😄 The deck looked super cute too but the guidebook looks so awesome it was what made it me consider it; I am still thinking about it maybe at some point I will give it a go because it does look enchanting ! Thank you so much for watching Deb & I hope you're doing well 😘
Yay, guidebooks!! Thank you for sharing your favorites with us and for the helpful tips! I've never really been attracted to the Cosmic tarot, but I'll look out for the kindle book. 🙂 I LOVE the guidebook for the El-Goliath, it's just so good. And I've been hoping for the Wild Messengers book to come back in stock for weeks haha (again, something I discovered on your channel, I know you've mentioned it before and every time I'm like damn, I need this book in my life! 😅). Thank you again for all the work you put into this and have a great week! 💙✨
Thank you so much my friend 🙌 Yes I think you would LOVE the wild messengers it really is something else. I think they are preparing a new edition right? I hope so, this book deserves to be spread to the world! Thank you so much for watching, j'espère que tu passes une belle semaine & gros bisous de la Réunion 💕🌻🙌
Wonderful recommendations Marine. I hope you are doing well. Guidebook’s have added another layer to my practice. It gives you more information about the deck itself. You can bring this information into the readings you do for yourself or others. 🏖🏖🏖
Yes I agree they really have expanded my mind too & I think they are always worth a read you never know what golden nugget lies inside. I am doing a bit better thank you just taking each day as it comes, I hope you’re well too, big hugs to you ♥️♥️
mariiiine you look so pretty, i LIVE!! (off topic, i know, but it had to be said, period!)
Awww thank you Gigi you are too kind 💕🌞 Hope you are well & have a lovely day I'm sending you sunshine
@@thewavesofyoursoul thank you, i'm sending you back little birds that are dancing on the roof in front of my window this morning! 🌷
Thank you so much for sharing! I hope you're doing well, Marine. 💕 I'd love to get ahold of Wild Messengers guidebook and tarot and the Shimmering Veil. I love your videos hon! I would love to see you do deep dives on specific cards and representations from different decks that solidify that meaning. It would be very insightful to hear what you think and we all learn from each other. Have a lovely weekend. : )
Hi Sarah thank you for the idea I will write it down & see how I can make that happen but I love the idea of us learning from each other. I think Wild messengers they are preparing a new edition so I hope the book will soon become available because it's awesome and deserves to be read by many ! Thank you so much for watching & have a good day 🌞
@@thewavesofyoursoul You could even call them “Deep Dives” to go with the ocean theme 🙂 I’d follow that series for sure. Always good to get another perspective and compare interpretations of our cards. Good luck with all your future videos hon 🤍
@@sarahk9131 I love that 🌊🌊 thank you so much I hope you have a great day
This was such a good videoooooo! I’m often attracted to decks by their guidebooks haha. My favorite guide books from the decks I own are the Wildwood Tarot, the Gift of Life Tarot (which I got after I saw it on your channel) and the Celtic Spirit Oracle by Nicola McIntosh, which I just got and I’m in love. The guidebook is sooo beautifully written! 💚 A guidebook I’m reading and loving (though I don’t own the deck) is the Numinous Tarot Guidebook. 💚 You know which book I’m super curious about? The True Heart Intuitive Tarot Guidebook, Sylvain always praises that book in his videos! Another one is the Tarot of the Divine. I’m interested in that deck mainly for the guidebook AND the companion storybook!!
Omg the gift of life that is soooo good I should have definitely included it in there 😍. I will probably make a part 2 because I realised I have missed a couple 🤔The numinous tarot is on my wishlist for sure the deck looks brilliant & if you tell me the guidebook is awesome too that is another huge point for me ! I love guidebooks too haha they can really make our tarot experience even better. Thank you so much for watching & your recommendations 💕
@@thewavesofyoursoul Omg I was thinking I need a part 2 for my comment hahaha because after I wrote it I was like BUT WAIT. I also love The Muse Tarot and Runik Tarot guidebooks 😂 Yes! What I love about the gift of life book is the “real life moment” section. It takes the deck to another level ❤️ And the Numinous tarot explains each card in a very real-life everyday-life type way, which I love… it also gives a lot of journaling questions so you can really dive deep. (Whether you have the deck or not).
I don't know if you mentioned it, but you can buy a PDF version of the El Goliath yaaay! I definitely prefer buying standalone books over the deck itself 🤗
Ohh I didn’t know that that’s good to know thank you! For people who are unsure if they would bond with the deck it sounds like a great alternative to see what it’s about before committing to purchasing the deck 🤗
@@thewavesofyoursoul whoops, I forgot to say it's a PDF version of the guidebook, not the deck itself!
Correcting myself here for posterity 🌻
My heart is struck on the Mary el tarot but every video I've watched till now says to not get it as a beginner deck so I'm trying to find something else 😭 I'm just drawn to darker decks like the lubanko and the black tarot in general and all the beginner decks people recommend look way too colourful and cheery to me
Also, the shimmering veil tarot is gorgeous! God why are they not beginner decks 🤭
Omg if you are drawn to the Mary el or any other deck and you feel it in your gut that it’s for you… GO FOR IT ! I give little recommendations for beginner friendly based on the guidebook and how far away it can veer away from more traditional decks purely because all tarot books/ courses/ podcasts etc usually are based on one of the traditional systems like RWS/ marseille or Thoth but they are never meant to tell people what they should or shouldn’t do. I’m the biggest believer that everyone path is different and that your intuition is your best compass so if you feel drawn to the Mary el for your first deck then hell yes it is awesome 😁 you are being called to work with those decks for a reason, your intuition will not lead you astray. also lubanko is one of my all times faves so that is an excellent choice in my humble opinion haha. My first deck was not a beginner deck according to some people, it was the tarot of the hidden realm, mostly close up faves no traditional symbolism etc but it was perfect for me at that particular time. I ended up picking a RWS as my second deck later on because I wanted to do a little historical deep dive and understand where things came from but it wasn’t necessary if that makes sense. So all of that to say I think you should trust your gut 😁
@@thewavesofyoursoul Well I'm going to go with my gut instinct then. Let's see where the new calling for tarot takes me. Anyway I believe my scorpio sun will appreciate hard hitting intense truths of darker decks haha
Also I love the tarot of the hidden realms and I believe the artist is coming out with another deck soon this year so I'm holding out for that
@@rheam3920 I hope you found the perfect one for you in the end 😘 And omg I didn't know that about the hidden realms artist that is so exciting !!!
You recommend Wild Messengers separate/stand alone guidebook, any suggestion as to where I can buy it? I am in Scotland, if that matters...
I think they are planning the next édition but I don’t know when they will release. I bought it directly on their website Wild messengers tarot so that’s the place I would recommend checking to see any updates 😊
@@thewavesofyoursoul thanks
Thank you! I always love love to see your videos. I am on youtube to bring awareness to the racial injustice I experienced in Los Angeles California. I am a Tarot Card reader, I am experiencing pain, so it is always a welcomed distraction to see your videos when they pop up. I brought the Mary El Tarot based on your suggestion. I haven't connected with them yet.I plan to read the entire book before I try to. I read intuitively. I am an empath. Can I suggest the New Era Element and the Black Tarot deck. They are two of my favorites. I notice you like modern diverse decks. Again, thank you so much🙏🏾
Thank you very much. I am so sorry that you are going through so much pain & sending big hugs your way 💕 I think the mary el is wonderful for intuitive reading but it definitely helped me to read the stories & myth linked to the cards to open those doors for me so I hope it can help you too. I have the new era elements it is so good you are right! Some cards definitely are a bit gut wrenching so I have to be in the right mindset but it is such a sharp shooter in terms of reading. I will have a look at the black tarot tarot because I really love modern diverse decks! thank you so much for your comment & take care 🌻
@@thewavesofyoursoul Yes, It is called The Black Tarot by Victoria Iva. You can get it on Amazon. Thanks for the pleasant timely response.
