LOL that last part was great. I had an extra laugh at the very end when you slowly slid in that last deck on the side corner. I find people who are comfortable or embrace the dark also have a very great sense of humor. Thank you for sharing.
I love the Deviant Moon book. It was a lot larger than I thought. It is so gorgeous and a perfect companion. Most expensive guide book I have, but worth it. Someone not into tarot would appreciate it for the artistic points-of-view. Love all your decks.
Beautiful presentation! Thank You very much. I have some of them - tarot and Oracle decks and I agree with you about the clarity of Reading. I must say that the last deck - The Spirit Song Tarot really scared me a lot!!! 😂
Love the little book of horrors at the end. Thank you for making a video on your shadow work decks! I am just now diving into shadow work because there’s only so much light can teach us without duality. 🖤🤍🖤
i love dark decks, i have: Heal yourself, Tarot De La Nuit, Dark mirror, Gothic tarot and Oracle of Shadow and Light. I love them and a really want now: Tarot of oppositions, and Magick of you
Wow, what an excellent review and presentation. Thank you! Oh btw.... I have a first run Deviant Moon deck with a few extras he tossed in and some signature cards. So awesome! I did not know he finished the big book, now that's a great Santa gift... for my business (of course). 🤔🤫🤭
Thank you for your kind words! The book is really beautiful. I like seeing the progress of an artist’s ideas. And yes… it would make a perfect gift from Santa.
Your so calm and throughly a pleasure to listen to. Very helpful. I don’t do anything public just Alignment of self now. This shadow work on self is it good to do before one can help others in healing. It just seems like I might not want to do this healing work in tarot. I like reading cards. Hey I almost to deep to back out . Lol
Hello there! Shadow work is such a personal process and difficult too. It’s hard to see the not so great things about yourself or painful memories that still affect you today. Using tarot for this process can be helpful, but of course there is more than just one way to skin a cat. Helping others is the most honorable and I agree with your statement of healing the self before others…. Thank you for watching 🖤
Thankyou yes I did enjoy seeing your decks.I enjoy my ‘Lost Code of the Tarot’ and ‘Murder of Crows’ is my very Favourite.Is that a Rabbit pellet on your desk, I have a Rabbit pelt to sit my decks that I am using and crystals on,so soft.Sending you a 🌈
Hi Raven, great video:) I just found your channel & I'm so glad I did. I'll be looking forward to seeing the rest of your deck collection. Well, have an awesome day!
What a great collection. As soon as I was drawn to reading, it lead me straight to shadow work. We have similar taste in decks. Other than deviant moon decks.
Thank you! I want to explore more independent dark decks because new ones are coming out all the time. If you know of any good shadow work decks, please let me know!
Yes! I recently got my first Thoth deck too, but I have not had a chance to really work with it yet. Your comment inspired me to try some shadow work with it....which should have been a no-brainer for me considering who made it lol. 🖤
hi raven onthehill, you can read the trionfi della luna with reversals if you look at the shadows on the wands: the dark shadows are on the left side of the wands if the card is upright, and when it's reversed they are of course on the right (and the left side is light). check it out! greetings!
Great collection !!! Thank you for sharing 👍👍 Wondering if you'll be adding the Murder of Crows to your pile. It's SUPER dark and the art is exquisite.
Hi there! Ya know, I’ve been looking at Murder of Crows and it seems right up my alley. Thank you for your recommendation! I just got a new darkish deck that I’m working with, but Murder of Crows should be added soon to my gang of dark decks lol.
Hey Sara!Here are your TIME STAMPS [See Second Comment]. You can pin this comment OR COPY & PASTE into your DESCRIPTION where it can help RU-vid find your video presenting it to people looking for those specific decks! **Smile**
Positive critique?!? I’ve not done a video exhibiting decks and image is difficult. Respectfully suggesting slow down when showing each card. It helps viewers 🙏
Oh sure. Well, I can share how I do it. I usually pick a small spread specific for shadow work, around 3-5 cards. Too many makes it too complicate as the message can become overwhelming. So smaller chunks is better for me. I read the cards with their associated position in the reversed aspect. For example, the 4 of coins would mean that I’m consumed with hoarding cash or I can’t hold on to cash at all and it’s causing a problem. Then I would reflect on my situation, card placement, and meaning of the card to better understand issues I need to deal with…. But I’m sure there are several ways of doing it. Hope that helps
Yes I would. There are a few reasons: I love the card stock, the images are thoughtful, the “little white book” has a lot of depth to it despite its small size, there is a key poem or phrase on the cards themselves, and most of all, the readings I’ve gotten have been on point. So if I lost this deck, I would rebuy it lol!
Well you can use any tarot deck for shadow work. What constitutes a dark deck is subjective and usually based on imagery and meaning for the cards. Usually the images are uncomfortable to confront darker aspects of yourself…. I think most decks fall into the gray to dark category like the ones I have…. But hey, that’s just my take on it.
I had that deck at one point and passed it on. I loved the images, but the cards were too thick for me to shuffle so I never used it. It is a good one too. It was actually a pretty funny deck.
