Absolutely beautiful, will order as soon as they come back from vacation. Looks like Ostara is when she'll be back and I can't wait! Thanks Simon you are the best!
I purchased the book and the deck very early in January, and to my surprise they arrived only two weeks later. Beautiful artwork and a wonderful deck to work with.
I backed the lowest tier deck only and got it a few months ago, I love it and use it a lot. I ended up buying the book from her Etsy shop and think they make a good set.
I seem to remember hearing that she started with her US/international backers first due to complications with Brexit and potential for increases in shipping costs?
I’m in the U.K. and have had mine over a month, I think it depended on which tier you backed, as I backed with the big book. I believe that the early bird ones were the last to be shipped out. I love the deck so much 💜
Thank you for this review. I was really pulled into the artwork when i first saw it up on kickstarter and I brisked through the info and went for it. Upon receiving it i was just memorized by the beauty of the deck in person. I have tremendous respect for the creator and all the effort put into it, However I do not find myself using this deck at present. A couple things really bother me about it.. having to flip through the guide to look for the cards is frustrating. A table of content or even numbering the cards would have been great, and I didn't find there was enough info on the card itself. ( I don't have the large book either) 2nd thing... I remember reading on the kickstarter that she had done extensive research on the characters and the locations for them and maybe it was just how i perceived it but I thought this was going to be like an homenaje to historical medicine women "witches". I was super excited. Upon receiving it and looking through the guide I realized no it was just fictional works that are placed in global location. ( Had it all wrong) I really want to love this deck and make use of it. Going to give it another try this fall. Thank again for your angle, going to try and work with 2 piles instead of a whole traditional deck. Cheers!
This video tried to sneak by me. 😮 I am so intrigued by both the book and the deck. They are beautiful! 😍But I worry that without a guidebook with a bit more content and guidance, I might not be quick to connect with it. Loved seeing it, though!
UK might have shipped last, actually only a day after the US. But you've received your decks the following day and we will be waiting for weeks for shipments to arrive. I'm disappointed with the way this was handled but I'm looking forward to finally receiving it. I think it was really inappropriate for Etsy orders to be shipped before Kickstarter backers.
Certainly wasn’t the next day, it was dispatched a while ago. I believe US Kickstarter backers had theirs dispatched back in Jan/Feb. Some have had theirs a good month.
@@the_hermits_cave mine was dispatched on thursday & the final U.K. decks were shipped on Friday. I’ve been following her status tracker for months. There’s a link in the Kickstarter updates to her website.
Oh wow, that’s really odd for a UK deck to leave its’ own until last. 🙁 Love the deck! I got mine about a month ago, but I don’t have the big book yet. Lovely walkthrough, as always, my friend. ❤️
I am so curious as to why you received the exact same edition that I ordered a month ago and mine just shipped. I did enjoy your walk thru even though I was frustrated by this project.
How do you navigate kickstarter to see these kind of decks that are coming out and need backing? I appreciate finding out about them here but would like to learn how to hear about them earlier too! Thanks all!!!!
Love your vid, It's been sat in my watch later list until my deck arrived as I wanted to hold it myself first before getting your opinion. Lovely cards, they are truely stunning. Proper narked that early bird backers in the UK had to wait so long after everyone else though. X
