the one i'm most likely to use is the marigold tarot by amrit s. brar.

but i'm partial to anything by james r. eads. he puts an extra card in his prisma visions decks that changes with each edition. the first edition card was called "strawberries" and the second edition card was called "the gift", and it was a little fish looking at a key sinking down through the water. i think they're wonderful. he also has an oracle deck i haven't been able to pick up yet, sadly.

I love my Marigold deck too! It is such a dream to work with and it is very "straight to the point".

OMG! The Madam Lydia Tarot Deck is beautiful. Is it still in print? 

My go-to deck is a RWS that I had made at makeplayingcards.com. The pictures are ever so slightly muted and sepia, and the backs are black with white hermetic symbols on the back. :)

For me, I use The Wild Unknown, it's beautifully drawn and as someone who is connected to the earth I feel heavily drawn to this deck

I currently own the Cilla Conway's "Intuitive Tarot" and Luis Royo's "The Labyrinth", that latter one is a masterpiece.

While I was into it, I really loved Deviant moon:



But when it comes to practicality Rider-Waite all the way.

For tarot I use the Tarot Familiars deck by Lisa Parker. I carry it around with me everywhere, but looking at it in front of me it might be time for a new carrying case since the cardboard is getting worn. The downside to it though is that the numbered minor arcana cards don't have art so I usually have to look those up if I draw them.

I don't really covet anything at the moment, I have a lot of decks. Some favorites:
OK, everybody needs a RWS. I like the University Books edition:
and the Albano:

A woman's got to have a good Thoth. My favorites are my old greenies and the gold box OTO edition. They rephotographed Lady Harris's original paintings for that one and the colors are unrivaled.

Baba decks are SUMPTUOUS. Karen knows her Tarot, too, she's not like a lot of the deck creators you see who don't get it and are simply using Tarot as a venue to sell their art. Watch this space, all of these decks are Limited Editions:
https://baba-store.com/collections/all-tarot-books-1

If you're in the market for a Marseilles, go here. I have Yves' Madenie, I wish I had them all!:

For something refreshingly different, there's the Tarot Fortune Cards/Thomson Leng:
https://fennario.wordpress.com/2020/08/25/thomson-leng-where-have-you-been-all-my-life/

78 photographs of one woman should not work, but amazingly, it does. One of my favorite decks (and America's first goth!)
https://fennario.wordpress.com/2019/04/12/vamp-the-theda-bara-tarot-from-jook-art/

I'm having a lot of fun with this one. It told me my boss was going to get chewed out by higher-ups, and he did, lol:
https://fatekeepson.blogspot.com/2021/09/the-rare-triumphs-tarot.html

This one is Majors only. And that's fine. Continental readers normally separate the Majors and the Minors, I'm told. If you need more, you can always do a Lenormand pull on the side. It works for me! I love this one because I'm already familiar with all these famous people. It's very easy to read:

There's more, but I'll shut up now, lol. But do check out the decks, they're epic.

My newest deck is the Illuminated Tarot, but we're still in the polite phase. It's a very positive deck overall and I haven't decided if I want to include inversions with it. 


The rest of my decks - 

Neon Moon - my favorite for artwork, it's futuristic and incredibly badass. Bought it on Etsy. 

Isis Oracle - gift from a friend, no inversions, but really great for meditation. 

The Goddess Tarot - my oldest and snarkiest deck. It's totally over my shit and tells it how it is. 

Btw- I'm new on here, add me!

the mystic mondays tarot deck was my first and it’s great! I’ve had it for a couple of years and it’s always given accurate readings. it’s also (in my opinion) beautiful. :]

My favorite tarot deck is the one I currently own called Kawaii Tarot by Amí Naiely (Diane Lopez). It’s so cute and I feel like it has a good introduction included for newbies to tarot  <333

I like to use medicine cards (I’m mixed native so it felt like I could connect to it more than other decks.) and they’re great! They’ve given me some grate insight every time I’ve used them both interpersonally and externally and my relationships with others. They were always correct too.. need to get back into them tbh cause it’s been awhile.

I don't know the name of the deck, but the one I have was handed down by my mum, who's had it since the 90s and kept the cards in almost perfect condition (the box is a little scuffed because of how often she's opened and closed it over the years). It's got what I think is a tulip on the front, with the most gorgeous art on it. My mum doesn't have much time for it anymore so she handed on the deck and the guide book to me so it would still be used. She told me to sleep with it under my pillow and shuffle the deck often.

I plan to hold on to the deck as long as I can, it's incredibly important to me and I want to keep it in good condition for as long as I can.

I liked Madame Lydia, although I have a suspicion that this deck takes a little more energy to lay out. My favorite deck now is the Casanova Tarot. At first I just appreciated it as an art object, many beautiful naked bodies framed by 18th century high society. But I did not understand how you can understand anything from such cards. And then I realized how clearly it speaks, the most straightforward and talkative deck.
