Some decks live up to our expectations better than others. I feel like I’ve had several decks fall short of my hopes recently, and have been approaching new decks with a more skeptical eye as a result.

Friends, I’d like to introduce you to the English Magic Tarot. Actually, I’m not introducing the English Magic Tarot in general – I’m introducing you to this deck specifically, the one in my pictures. Why? Because it’s not like other decks.

I’ve had the Spacious Tarot deck on my deck wish list for the better part of a year, and finally was able to get a copy of the 2nd edition over the holidays, and am delighted to share and recommend it to you all!

And you might have noticed that I chose a crow to be part of my logo… Yep, had to have it.

I have finally found my perfect tarot deck! (It only took 20+ years…) I had used the Morgan-Greer deck as my primary deck for 13 years, with the intent of eventually getting a deck that is a bit more suited to me, but had a hard time finding one that really spoke to me.
Last winter I was doing research for my second tarot workshop at UCMH, and I found a wonderful website called the Little Red Tarot. It’s an LGBTQ+ focused shop (and blog) that sells and promotes indie decks specifically. That’s where I found the Brady Tarot.
