    Thank you so much Simon for your video and sharing my deck 🙏🔥 I created it during 2021 and the lockdown actually gave me more time to draw! The knight of wands card is about fighting the pandemic with my Covid costume. Most of visuals are inspired by my costumes and art and influences.. king of cups Cthulhu, king of swords Leigh Bowery, circus indeed, freaks and goth, Junji Ito, Divine as the 4 of pentacles, friends, nature etc.. My Shibari experience for 8 of swords, The star is about Gods own junkyard the neon company where i work in east london ⭐️
    In the booklet at the end there is the list of all people featuring in the deck
    Thank you for your interest in my tarot deck and happy new year 🔥🔥

    This is such an intriguing deck, and regardless of what intense scenes are depicted on the cards, the colors and the way it is drawn and colored in is really striking. This is truly a one of a kind deck, it’s fascinating.

    Thank you Simon for your video. This deck is amazing, intriguing, challenging and super creative. It called my attention to see other meanings related to the cards, and opened up my mind. It would be lovely pairing with tarot of the Shide and The wisdom of shadows oracle. And BTW I love the Queen of swords. Already in my wish list. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    I'm reading the Southern Reach trilogy rn and love the cosmic-horror world of it so much so was looking for decks with that vibe - then I remembered this deck, and all the mushrooms, brains, distortions, and sense of subverted/distorted memory and recall definitely fits the bill. Thank you so much for the amazing walkthrough!!

    I'm not usually into bright decks but this one is so thematically dark and provocative that it balances out the bright colors. However, I think I'm too new to tarot to use it. But I'm putting it on my wishlist for when I build up my chops and need to be bullied a little.

    • @the_hermits_cave
      @the_hermits_cave  3 роки тому +2

      I think, if it’s for personal use you’ll be fine. Especially if you are concentrating on how the images are making you feel. But, I agree, when you are ready. 🙏🏻

    I like the artwork and also bright coloured decks. I like the octopus, insect, mushroom themes. I don't hate it. I don't think that's it's for me.
    I am picky because I only have so much storage space, can only afford mass market decks and limit myself to between 30 and 50 decks
    Thank you for the post

    This is a deck I think I'll have to give serious consideration to. I don't think I could read with it, but the colors and images are stunning. I think it's more of a shock art deck and makes me think of things like Leigh Bowery, Divine in Pink Flamingos, Rocky Horror, American Horror Story, Killer Clowns From Outer Space. I absolutely LOVE the Magician card (maybe Fellini-esque...Julie Of The Spirits).

    • @the_hermits_cave

    Amazing. I can see why it's for shadow work. It doesn't really resonate with me although I can see the wildness and appeal of it. The colors are beautiful and the images are disturbing. I definitely would not want a reader pulling this deck out for me but maybe I should... I took a quick look, USAmazon has a couple left (more on the way it says). They also have some of the German, Italian and Portuguese ones. Thanks, Simon.

      My copy finally arrived from Blackwell’s.
      I can’t stop looking at these images. I did myself a spread earlier. Sat with it, kept coming back & it gave me a strong message. It’s has a lots of depth and places to explore. Deep, intense, monstrous but also quirky, fun & humorous (6 of pentacles) where you have the big snail sharing his green leaf salad with his mates lol … I love it 😍
      Cheers Simon 🙂

    That was interesting. I don't dislike the deck, but I'm not fully sold on the entire deck either. I really like a lot of the swords suit. The two is very good. Some cards are also very clever. The art made me chuckle several times. I think it was the lack of continuity (?) that makes me waver. The artwork does draw me in though.
