I absolutely love these Oracle cards
I absolutely love these Oracle cards, not only are they beautiful to look at they have a much more down to earth, realist outlook when reading them. I feel totally comfortable and like I have found my go to pack of Oracle cards. They are just the right size for me to shuffle sufficiently and whilst the cards are thinner than most other Oracle cards I have used in the past I soon got used to it and do not feel as though it really impacts on the quality. Very much recommend.

Surprisingly nice and accurate!
Didn't think I'd like these as I thought they were too cartoon looking and perhaps made for the younger reader but I'm 32 and in love with these cards. Nice and big, beautiful colors and illustrations. Accurate readings. The book is fab and the box is great and sturdy.

great deck and book
In a previous review I noticed someoe had said something about It just being a book or something however It Is a deck of cards which comes with a 160 page book, they are gorgeous cards I love the backing to them as well as I appreciate attention to detail, as well as the actual front picture they are a nice size so you can see the pictures properly and they are a really good price most importantly I did a single card pull before writing the review and the message really resoated too will definetely buy from the designers of these cards again.

Gorgeous
Love the images on these cards. Cute and creepy at the same time. They are quite large so it takes practice to shuffle them. If you have small hands you might struggle. The guide book is great with suggestions for a couple of spreads.

The deck’s energy is perfect, but there is a small problem. I thought that the deck’s bottom and side parts was coloured black, but it was white and had some marks. A viewer on youtube said that it should be coloured black if it is original. So, I felt upset for this reason. Maybe the producer changed the colouring, I don’t know. Also, there are some small defects on the background of some cards, but almost every deck has this problem so I am not going to complain for that.

When I saw the images of these cards online, I fell in love. Usually I don't like dark decks, but decks that are lively in colors but this deck made my exception list and I am glad it did. I had one of Lucy Cavendish's deck (Wild Wisdom of the Faery Oracle) and have always been amazed by how accurate that deck was. I have many oracle decks about 8 Doreen Virtues and 2 of Colette Baron Reid's, 2 of Sonia Choquette, and some others= and Lucy's is the most accurate (other than Colette's Decks). Because of this, I wasn't hesitant to buy another deck of Lucy's especially of when its with gorgeous artwork. Upon getting this deck and opening up the box, the cards in person are even more gorgeous. Just really gorgeous cards of extreme depth. Sometimes I just find myself staring at the cards more than the message as the images are like beautiful little girls with a whole lotta tude! They remind me so much of my beautiful teenager niece. An old world artistry feel to these cards... The fabrication of the cards are decent and help to add to the beautiful of the artwork on the deck, but sometimes they can warp. There's enough darkness with a right balance of color to not make you get scared and run away from the deck. Packaging of this deck is also a bonus. The box it comes in is a very sturdy cardboard about 5" x 6.5" so its portable in your purse (if you have a large purse) without worry of not having the instruction book or getting your cards ruined. If I could, I would suggest all deck publishers to consider encasing their cards in such way. The theme to the cards can sometimes mimic her other decks, but not as bad as the extremely repetitive tune of a Doreen Virtue deck. Lucy places a great deal of depth to the card meanings to give you as little room for ambiguity as possible (that's the difference between Lucy Decks and Doreen Virtue decks). So if you're not psychic or sensitive, you won't have a hard time deriving a message from it. If you compare this deck with Lucy's other decks I would say this deck tends to explore and answer feelings really well. So if you have query about how others feel/perceptions about a situation/person you can easily use this deck. You can also use this deck for advice readings as its probably mainly suited for this. If you're in tune with this deck, you can use it to predict also, I have. When I first got this deck, the readings were kinda "everywhere" not consistent like the others have spoken of. But then I slept with it under my pillow for a few days and this deck became more in tune with me and sometimes eerily consistent. The few cards I like having in this deck is "Miracle" of Angel of Alchemy card which talks about health challenges. Which is nice. I got this card during a time where I was ignoring a health issue. Its not come into my readings anymore after going to the doctors. I also get this for other people I read for too, and it usually makes its presence known when you're ignoring a health issue. Because Lucy is familiar with Tarot, you can see the resemblance of Tarot in these cards, which I like a lot. Like the "Aha-Moment" card is akin to the ace of swords to me. So when I see this card I know something sudden is going to happen or a sharp realization with take place. You can easily not use the instruction book and just read the cards, but the instruction book gives far more depth so its hard to just put it down but the illustrations have so much depth to them that you extrapolate meanings accordingly.... or make up your own language with them. I love this deck mostly because the fabrication and art of this deck are both gorgeous!!!!

Order was delivered very quickly, in good condition. The cards are beautifully printed, however a little bit big and sturdy. If you have small hands, it would be quite difficult to shuffle. My recommendation is to seperate each card first before shuffling them as a whole to avoid cards sticking together. I am pretty pleased with the deck, it has a feeling of mysteries and wonders mixing together. If you are a fan of fantasy realms, this could be a decent choice.
