Hi! I have always loved tarot and oracle, but I am one of those people you probably cringe at who doesn’t read intuitively and uses guidebooks for everything. But I love the messages and love the cards so much - it’s so spiritual for me. I adore your collection. You are so wise. ❤️
No cringing here! I have a few decks that I use specifically because of the guidebook. It brings in a bit of bibliomancy for me. Personally, I always read the guidebook if a deck comes with one. The artist's motivation and interpretation is important to me. Thank you for watching! 🤗💜
I like to use the mini decks that don't resonate with me for gifts. Like I might put a card in a birthday card or on a co-worker's desk or let coworkers take a card out of a basket on my desk basket at work, etc. I love rehoming complete decks, but when it comes to the minis like Divine Doors or the flower one, I like to kind of spread that out across a lot of people. I figure it's 40 little wishes of happiness for people who might be needing a pick me up.:) I gave vintage journals to co-workers for Christmas this year and I put one of the Postcards from Spirit cards inside each one in a random place for them to find later.
Nobody talks about the Connolly tarot! I accidentally got the vintage version in a trade. Didn’t realize it was going to be vintage so it was a nice surprise. It also came already trimmed for me 😃. I love it’s unapologetic use of hot pink and random cherub babies scattered around 🤣. Also I created a FB group for those of us really trying to control deck spending this year. It’s called Mindful Deck Curators. Just in case you’d be interested. Lovely collection
I'm not normally into the bright colors, but they work in that deck! Lucky you for getting the vintage version! That's a possibility for me this year, I think. I'm going to check out that group! Thank you so much for watching! 💜
@@amidst_the_grey I was lucky to find that vintage Connolly mini. Have you found a home for that Steampunk Fortune Telling card deck? If not, I'd be very interested.... 🤷♀
@@wyomingwynne I see some vintage Connollys pop up semi-regularly, so I still have hope! I still have the Steampunk deck! I listed it on Facebook, but it never sold. I'm doing a pass box video in the near future. I plan to go through the requests that have been made in the comments and do my best to get those decks to those viewers, if they're still interested.
To trim off the purple borders of the Spiral Tarot, you can trim in between the 2 outside yellow borders on the back and you'll eliminate the purple borders yet keep the titles on the bottom. It works, promise! 👍
Took me the whole day to watch this, pausing and doing other things along the way, but I love and appreciate this video! Interesting to see decks I haven’t encountered and hear your thoughts on them! Thanks!
Indi Anna k turned into Indiana K, and I am here for it 😆😆💚💚. It is going to take me a few sessions to watch through this all the way through this. So far, I am impressed with your motivation to do this.
Haha, thank you. I thought about breaking this up, but I know myself too well. Had I stopped, I would have lost the flow and probably wouldn't have finished any of it.
Just ordered the Arcana Tarot Playing cards. Wish they still had the dark one. You can pick it up from ebay for close to $200. Can't wait till the light one comes. Those fine-line drawings look gorgeous.
@@amidst_the_grey I'd love that. I do have the Tarot of Light and Shadow, which I love. It's mass market and very reasonably priced. Those small decks, though.......
Wow, good job! Sometimes you just need to talk it out with someone while cleaning out, decluttering, and culling things. I watched & listened while working on jigsaw puzzles on my tablet. I love your Italian decks, I do like pips, they feel old world to me and make me think of my Spanish & Italian heritage. ❤️🃏
I loved every minute of this! I took some notes on decks that sparked my interest and have some ideas about similar decks in my collection that can pass. Thank you!
Just finished this~ finally 🥰❤️ The way I did was: watched for an hour, hit pause, find some snack, continue watching.. paused again, to get drink.. and continue again until the end. Pheww~ what a collection you got there!! Love 'em all!! Thank you for this!! Hope you aren't tired recording this~ Keep up the good work!! 👍🥰❤️❤️❤️
Oh goodness, bless your heart! 🙂💜 Actually, this was one of the easiest videos to put together out of any I've done because there were a lot of longer stretches of filming. Easier when there aren't so many bits and pieces!
Well, I have so many thoughts! I LOVE the Journey oracle from Adrienne Trafford, it is one of my favourites! I also have her tarot colouring book and I have been waiting for years for her full tarot deck to come out! I don't think it will happen, unfortunately, but if it does, it will be an instant buy! I also love the Connolly deck, I trimmed mine square and edged it black. It looks fab! I have a video of it. Also, Spiral tarot is my No. ONE tarot deck!!!
Awesome collection! I’m only half way through and have seen a few eyebrow raising decks (in a good way) already. I saw someone trim The Wild Unknown Archetypes at 2 sides… I’m considering trying that. Really enjoyed watching! Hello from Bellingham, WA!
I quite enjoyed this video, despite there being very little overlap between my collection and yours (I'm also right around 100 decks). I liked the more rapid-fire deck inventory! A couple of places where we had overlap were Darkness of Light and Soul Trees; those were two of my earliest must-have decks! Looking for imagery of the Divine Feminine was what originally brought me to tarot, but I also struggle with personified Deity. Dark Goddess Tarot works pretty well for me because the art feels more like getting down to the archetypal energies of Goddess. I also like The Red Seeds Oracle for Deity-in-humanity or "how Goddess resides in every female human form." I've found that anthropomorphized animal tarot decks work surprisingly well for me, and it's actually often easier for me to see myself in the characters. Best wishes for the year ahead!
Watched it and it was a great ! Loved going through ur collection! On occasion I would pause and go check out a deck u talked about & then back to watching ur Mari Kondo declutter. 💖
I watch Vincent On his channel tarot maps. I just love him. I like his style of reading also and I plan on buying the same deck you have when I'm ready to embark on Marseille. This year I'm going to focus on lenormand next year I will probably purchase his deck. I was just actually watching his live tonight.. Tarot meet up. I like the style of a lot of the older people he has in the meetups because I think that generation reads different than us
I agree! I've been kind of in a groove with some vintage decks and taking another look at some older mass market decks that have been around for a while. I love hearing perspectives on reading from folks who have been doing it for decades. Thank you so much for watching. 🙂💜
Im enjoying our videos so much. I have a book recommendation for you The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. its so wonderful and the image of The Grey encounter still stays with me
The Graveyard Book is one of my favorites! I'm a middle school library specialist and I recommend that book to any student willing to listen to me. 🤣 Thank you SO much for watching! 💜
Hey, I love your collection! About that maroon edition of the Margaret Petersen tarot, I also have it and same some of the cards are lighter than others, so it's not just you. 😊
So funny...do you remember on my LIVE the other day how I was talking about the panel of readers I used to watch on a Tuesday night?? Well Emily Kisvarda creator of those scared geometry cards with the Owl on the cover...she was one of the readers!! She's from Australia 🇦🇺 And the Phoenix Rising website are the sacred oils she creates I think 🤔
I really wish they'd re-release the numerology library of oracles deck, there really is nothing else quite like it that I can find.. I love the Elemental Power tarot too, and whilst I'm not particular about card stock, that one is a joy to shuffle! Enjoyed listening to you run through your 2022 collection! *new sub* \o/
Light seers was one of my first tarot decks besides the wild unknown and the deviant moon which weren't for me but light seers will always be in my tarot bin
I came back hours later and am just now finishing it! I loved it. So great for the new year to do. Also, do you have a P.O. Box? I have a Sonia Choquett answer is simple deck somewhere that has a damaged box but I think the cards were fine. I’ll have a look around when I do my own cull soon.
I was really enjoying this until you said "the virus that shall not be named". In my experience, anti-vaxxers say that...please tell me you're not one, because I am enjoying your channel.
I said that because RUclips tends to not like the C-word, so I minimize my use of it. I am fully vaccinated, with boosters. That being said, I also respect the choice of those who decide it isn't right for them. Not everything is correct for everyone.

I've thought of doing that, actually! I've received a few cards with orders from independent shops. It's a nice little touch.
Your coworkers are very lucky. Hope they know that.

I thoroughly enjoyed this and you!!! Thanks for sharing ….it was like my movie night!! 😂❤
Bless your heart for watching even five minutes of that chaos! 🤣
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching. 💜
I loved every minute of this! I took some notes on decks that sparked my interest and have some ideas about similar decks in my collection that can pass. Thank you!
Aww, thank you so much!! 💜🤗
Hi, my Margarete Petersen had the same colour variation of the boarders! I trimed off the boarders and it looks absolutely amazing now 🤗
Thanks for sharing! I actually don't mind the variation, just wondering if it was a more widespread thing or just me.
Just finished this~ finally 🥰❤️
The way I did was: watched for an hour, hit pause, find some snack, continue watching.. paused again, to get drink.. and continue again until the end.

This reminds me I need to get the slow tarot. What a collection though! 🙌🏼 it felt very unique - and I binch collection videos All the time🤗
Thank you SO much for watching 💜
I love collection videos, too.
Awesome collection! I’m only half way through and have seen a few eyebrow raising decks (in a good way) already. I saw someone trim The Wild Unknown Archetypes at 2 sides… I’m considering trying that. Really enjoyed watching! Hello from Bellingham, WA!
I love Bellingham! Been there many times. Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you for sharing! I’m also a little jealous of the 5 cent tarot. Beautiful collection. Truly enjoyed watching.
Aww, thank you so much for watching! 💜

I love clam chowder!!

What a beautiful collection😍😍😍

She's from Australia 🇦🇺 And the Phoenix Rising website are the sacred oils she creates I think 🤔
That's crazy!! I remember now that she's an Australian creator. (Not so) small world!
Finally finished watching lol ... I might have to do something similar!! You have some beautiful decks 🔮✨️
Bless you for watching my chaos! 😂
If you do a similar video, let us know!! 💜

Thanks so much!
You're right about the Numerology deck. It's totally unique.
I have that same Margarete Petersen and yes, some of the borders are lighter, but it's only on 7 of the cards.
Oh my goodness, thank you for replying! I need to check how many of mine are lighter, and which ones.
hi :)
i just ordered a moonlight tarot on etsy, after seeing it in this video. at the moment, there are two copies left.
I hope you'll love it! It's a very special deck.
on a great Pair e thing Im learning about decks I don't use is if I find a great Pair for it it changes it completely.
I'm in the minority in that I don't deliberately pair my decks. If I use multiple decks, I choose them intuitively right before the reading.
I have cosmo visions and the tarot and lately it's just not working for me
The Answer Is Simple Deck is so beautiful. And you’re right. I checked Amazon and it’s about $149. 😢
Absolutely crazy!!
I have the star seed oracle don't really like it but I just bought the ritual tarot for my birthday and I enjoy that deck
I'm half way thru watching BTW and if you felt like rehoming your 5 cent Tarot to meeeeee - I wouldn't hate that haha 😆
I'll keep you in mind! Shipping to Australia is still pretty expensive, I think. I'll do some investigating.
Light seers was one of my first tarot decks besides the wild unknown and the deviant moon which weren't for me but light seers will always be in my tarot bin
I feel it's a staple for a lot of people.
Great video!
Thank you SO much for watching! 💜
I have that star seeker tarot and its definitely a keeper
I came back hours later and am just now finishing it! I loved it. So great for the new year to do. Also, do you have a P.O. Box? I have a Sonia Choquett answer is simple deck somewhere that has a damaged box but I think the cards were fine. I’ll have a look around when I do my own cull soon.
Oh, really?? That would be amazing! You can send an email to the address in my channel description. 🙂💜
@@amidst_the_grey okay. I’ll look for it. It’s around somewhere
Siolos other deck the tarot one I forget the name but it's one of my favorites
Also interested in the tarocco soprafino if u r still getting rid of it
I started out with oracle to and found tarot
Oòoooo that was mammoth 😁
It definitely felt that way at the time! 🤣
Thanks so much for watching! 💜
If u r still interested in getting rid of the slow tarot and the crow tarot. I am interested.
I'll be doing a video soon showing the decks I'd like to re-home. My email will be available in that video. 🙂
I have the ancient italian from Amazon the mass market one I think
I modify my decks too
I have archetypes deck and I do like it
What did you do with the decks you got rid of
I still have them, and I'm doing a video about that soon. 🙂
I'd like to get a Jonas jaustarot
I am PAINFULLY jealous of anyone who has The Answer is Simple 😂
Someone in a group I'm in managed to find it for $50, which is the cheapest I've seen lately.
I have 1 il meneghello deck and one Italian deck
I did this. I have over 400 decks. ims starting a channel. gift them on your channel!!
Good luck with your channel!

I will be. I'm going to do a video just on my pass box. It'll be up either in the next few days or sometime next week.
@@amidst_the_grey I'm definitely interested in Krystal Banners decks & I think there were a few others. Thank you. I'll wait and pay attention. ❤️
@@blackgirlsread7978 I'll make a note that you're interested in that deck. I've done that for someone else as well.
