These are all the Oracle and Tarot Decks that I own myself! A gentle reminder that tarot is really about communicating with yourself, or deepening your intuition - you can use the decks however you like, but know that a deck doesn’t “predict the future” - it’s showing you how things are presenting in this moment, or even reflecting your own energy back at you. Everything is mutable. (At least imo) You don’t *need* these to start off your journey - there are some thrift stores that carry wonderful decks if you look for them 👀 just cleanse it with some selenite, incense or visualization beforehand to get more accurate readings for your own energy. Happy Reading! 💕
