    It's very 'Gormenghast' but I respect the thought and talent that went into it. Not something I can see myself using but fun, nonetheless.

    Beautiful cards, looks like a complicated system. I will be interested in your further review.

    These are really interesting cards. I'd like to know more about the severed head, what it means. I'm somewhat taken aback by the violence in it, but still wonder how it would interpret.

    This is AMAZING!! I'm super fan of Ana Cortez work. She developed a system that is the heart of cartomancy. When I was looking to learn this type of divination, I couldn't find something that made sense about how to read the cards without it being related to the tarot until I came across Ana Cortez y the playing card Oracle 🔥❤️ I recommend 💯

    You should maybe edge the borders in a gold color, it would match nicely I guess with the red and the black cards, and even the back of the cards. Plus, all the cards have a touch of gold on them 😊

    Im tickled by how much you like this deck because I certainly fell head over heels in love with it last week! In fact, saw it, watched Ana’s initial videos on it and how she described bits of the inner realms, bought it and haven’t been able to put down the book. LOL I love Tarot and other types of oracle decks but never wanted to explore “playing cards” as a divinatory tool - until now. Playing cards always felt so left-brain and sort of shallow or hollow to me. Maybe that’s a blessing now because I’m probably going to only adhere to the deep realms and dimensions of how Ana and CJ “saw” playing cards. 😊 Enjoy and I look forward to your follow-up on this deck! Blessings!

    These cards are absolutely gorgeous! I was thrilled to see Medusa and Vlad especially. How exciting to have a new system to learn! Please do make another video after you've worked with them for a bit.

    I really do like this deck and that’s from someone who generally doesn’t like playing cards. The artwork is beautiful and very much my thing, the book looks really amazing and I am sure will be a great read. This may have to go on my wish list, thank you for showing it my friend 😍❤️

    These do look very nice and all, but I'll be interested to see if they're any different than her original Playing Card Oracles Deck. I was learning tarot and lenormand when I got those and it was just too different to study at the time.

  • @belindachambers7585
    @belindachambers7585 Рік тому +1

    What a Powerful, stimulating deck. It does need edging I can't make up my mind if black or half half maroon and black. Probably I would match to the dark woodgrain look of the backs- just love the Lions head🦁

    Some of the art remids me of Anna K. I don't use playing cards much but it sounds like this has an interesting 'system' with it. Thanks for sharing, Simon!
