    I just pulled the trigger and ordered this and also the viking oracle. I cannot wait!!! These are my first decks. I have one tarot set I got at 5 below and while I think it's perfect for me to learn because it's rws based, I just can't really connect with the art. I'm german and I'm just starting on my path finally embracing witchcraft, I opened that door a crack as a teen once but it faded into the background again and I just now revisited it at 33 and I couldn't be happier with it. It's given me so much empowerment, I also knew right away my path will be heavily intertwined with norse and germanic roots. It just feels right. Like something I lost has come back and I'm enjoying learning so much. But I really can't wait to learn the wildwood and viking oracle. Super excited. And I love the artwork on both. I think the next on my list will be the druidcraft...

    Thank you for your very thorough review of this beautiful deck. I have been looking into tarot systems that stray from the typical Rider-Waite story. I love this deck, and I'm scoping my favourite online stores right now to purchase one. I also like what you did with the printout of the wheel of the year from the guide book. I think I would do the same. Thank you again. This is an extremely helpful review.

    I bought the iphone app of this deck and I love it so much I'm going to spring for the physical deck as well. Obviously without card backs I won't be annoyed by the copyright information LOL. I had looked into Greenwood but this deck is much more attractive IMO and of course easier to obtain and less expensive. I love the nature theme and the soft coloring of the artwork. Simply breathtaking! The elemental correspondences are perfectly done and I like the originality as in the departure from the Rider-Waite. Love it love it!! The court cards are so very lovely.

    As you started speaking on the price, and apologies for making multiple comments but I comment during the video and not at the end haha -I wish I could have gotten it for just 13 dollars. It's currently around 35 on amazon but I found it new, the set with book, and not a cheap knockoff, for 19.99 on ebay from a magickal shoppe. Given it comes with such a nice book I think 20 is certainly justified, although money is tight so I would have loved to save some more but I am so so happy I even found it for 20. There are so many beautiful decks out there. And I was really focused on getting a RWS deck, but when I saw these... wow. Just immediately felt the connection with the artwork. I am so excited about getting this deck. It's so beautiful.

    hmm... still somewhat going back and forth over this deck. Although the stones nearly won me over (which is quite surprising as this suit usually isn´t my dealbreaker). Ah... I know I´ll end up buying it at some point, but it´s not its time yet. I LOVE the setup with the wheel of the year and thanks a lot for pointing that out so thoroughly!!!

      Cuilfaen I do love the Stones in this deck too, Cuilfaen, as well as in the Chrysalis Tarot and the Pentacle suit is definitely not usually a dealbreaker for me either. I really do love the setup with the wheel of the year a LOT because it really does, for me, show the flow of energy between the elements and the suit in a very visual and natural cycles way! ~Kelly

I want a book to get an in depth understanding of the cards, but I dislike the sturdy, huge box that comes with the kit. Apparently, as you said, it comes in an app where everyone get access to the book. I wonder if it is a full unabridged book that we can find in the app? Looking forward to hearing from you 😃

    Hi Kelly! Between this deck and the Druidcraft Tarot, do you have a preference?

    • @TheTruthinStory
      @TheTruthinStory  7 лет назад +1

      This is a really hard question because they are very different decks. The Druidcraft is a workhorse deck, just get down and do readings and bam. Wildwood is it's own system, it is really focused on the Wheel of the Year and doesn't follow the RWS meanings in the minors much of the time. For READING, I would have to pick Druidcraft, for setting intention and working with the Wheel of the Year, the Wildwood :)

    I have this deck and it is my first deck. I read the booklet but the wheel of the year with the card confuses me a bit. Does it mean we only use certain cards during certain seasons? Or if they correspond with a season to give a timeline to the reading? And ik that with the RW deck if it's upside down it takes an opposite connotation. Is that the same for all decks including this one or with this deck would it not matter how the card is facing. Sorry for all the questions.

    The Wildwood was one of my earlier decks. I've always loved the feel of it somehow. There have been a few versions of it - and I happen to have both. One of the books has more information on the court cards than the other does. The app actually has the longer version, if you have that. Another thing I'll share is that there is a website voicewithinthecards.wordpress.com/greenwood-tarot-book/ where you can see the images of the Greenwood Tarot. Chesca Potter is the artist and includes some excellent information here (via a friend - Mi-Shell) You can actually print out a "small" size of the deck as well. I did this recently, and I'm really enjoying them ;) Used copies of the Greenwood are very expensive, so it is quite wonderful to have this available.

      ***** Ah you have the Greenwood and the Wildwood, very nice! I know there have been some changes from the Greenwood to the Wildwood so it's not an exact reworking. I do have the Wildwood Tarot app as well so I'll have to compare the court information, thank you for pointing that out!! ~Kelly

I really appreciated your thorough review of the Wildwood - it will always be one of my favourites!

    • @TheTruthinStory
      @TheTruthinStory  9 лет назад +3

      +Sam Wright I was just telling somebody that I need to do a video on reversals, I will put that on the docket for this week! But the nutshell is two-fold. When I say I don't do reversals I mean that I don't physically shuffle the cards to come up upright and reversed (upside down cards). This doesn't work for me personally because it interrupts the flow of the reading for MY brain. I believe that the 78 card system is balanced between light and shadow aspects and doesn't need a full other set of reversed meanings, that's my personal take, I don't disagree with people who use physical reversals, just in my personal practice I don't find it necessary. However, I do see cards in shadow by the question that is being answered, the position of the card (ex., if the sun turns up in something that is hindering or needs to be let go of), and also by intuitive "feel." I hope that makes sense. It doesn't have to do with positive and negative, the 78 cards have darker aspects like the 8, 9, 10 of Swords, 5 of Cups, 5 of Pentacles, and so forth, all on its own without reversals. It's a tool, how we use them is personal so I don't negate physical reversals, I just don't use them :D (sorry that was a big nutshell, video coming!)

      @@TheTruthinStory Thank you for your kind words. I prefer no border by far and didn't realize that it might not work on all decks. I trimmed the Shadowscapes tarot and even though it's very small I love it much better. The cards gained a lot of space without the border. But it doesn't work for me for this deck at all :-( Now that I'm thinking about it, The Shadowscape tarot are all 'zoom out' pictures and have enough space around the characters. The Wildwood, on the other hand, seems very 'zoomed in' and the trimmed cards feel like there was something cut off...
