thank you for mentioning some of those challenging cards- I really felt so uncomfortable seeing them in the deck because I thought this was an excellent opportunity for a reframing of them (including titles, even though I know the titles of the cards have a place in the oracle history of the deck). I always appreciate it when people from the culture take the opportunity to refresh a deck, which may lead to future editions with the new approaches taken, thus changing the way the deck may be approached in the future. I wish someone would do something like this with Italian culture and history- not the whole Catholic/Roman thing, but the beliefs, systems, and folk magic that has been in that region (my ancestral history) for centuries. Everyone associates Italy with Catholicism and the Renaissance and all the classic Tarot decks, but there is SO much else - especially matriarchal beliefs, herbalism, plant magic and remedies, etc. - else in our history that no one ever explores in decks. It's so wonderful you have a tool like this!
Hello! It hadn't occured to me until I read your comment that "Italian" themed decks are very limited within their themes. I did a search and didn't come up with anything of the sort. There are 3 books that are specific to Italian Folk Magic but no decks that reflect those concepts. That is indeed a void that needs to be filled. Thank you for bringing this to my attention - maybe someone in the community will feel the call to make this happen.
It's such an important time for everyone to look at the aspects of their own cultures that they find uncomfortable and face them. Which is why I'm enjoying watching UA-cam presenters who do just that. Being older than many UA-camrs, it's been a time for me of allowing the wisdom of different cultures to enrich and also confront my own. Thank you so much for being an important part of this learning for me, Annette.
Hello Anna, I truly appreciate you and your words of wisdom. As one of the "older" TarotTubers I understand how learning from everyone is so important and truly enriches your personal growth and practice. Thank you for being you Anna. 🙏
Thank you so much for doing this video! This deck is so lovely. Your pairing with the Modern Witch was inspired. I've found it looks great with the True Heart Intuitive Tarot and Black Seed Tarot.
Hello! I really like it paired up with the Modern Witch and it gave me a reason to start using that deck outside of using it for my spirtual baths. I don't have either of the decks you mentioned but I I can see how the tones of both of those would work. I've found it to be a really straight and forward deck. Thank you so much for adding some possible decks pairings.
It’s a beautiful deck, and your pairings were perfect! I appreciate your input on the more challenging cards, and agree that allowing each person the opportunity to decide for themselves is important, especially with a system that has such deep cultural significance.
Hello! As much as I wanted this deck I had to give it some thought because of those cards but I appreciate that the creators did take it into consideration. I would much rather be able to choice if I want to keep them in the deck or take them out. Thank you!!!
So colorful and bright! I liked all the pairings you showed, and I can see too that it pairs perfectly with the modern witch 😍 Wishing you a lot of fun pairing this deck😘🙋🏻♀️✨
Thank you so much for featuring our deck 🌿for providing so many cultural insights, thoughtful commentary on our artistic choices, and most of all, for your care in relaying our written messages when it came to the complicated decision of maintaining the fidelity of the deck. A bonus: I could listen to your lovely voice for hours! Mil gracias 🌹
Hi Annette! What a beauteous deck! I love the La Chalupa card, the composition and colors are so joyous! All the illustrations are so well done ~ the bird and the star card are also favorites. Not one dud in the bunch. It will go with so many other decks. I can tell how thrilled you are to add this to your collection! Do an update for us in future and show us how you use it!
@vadal4043 Hello, beautiful soul! I am pretty excited about it. The mix of the classic images with the symbolism and colors really speaks to me. Much love!!!
@chaneldays They do look bright and cheerful together. I can't wait to see how they read together. Thank you my friend, you've got some great deck pairing skills!

Hello Angela, it's actually perfect together. I've had a shance to work with them together and they are a clear and very direct read. Big Hugs.

Modern witch seems to have a similar Color palette - very symbiotic
