I had wanted a couple different decks & this was one of the main ones. In reading all the descriptions on this particular one , it sounded like it came with cards& book- a set. Much to my surprise, not only did it have Deck AND cards, but it came with a fairly nice spread cloth , or altar cloth or whatever you choose to call it. The material is odd, kind of a stretchy polyester , but the stamped design was nice. Considering that I paid only around 14 dollars, it's a heck of a deal!
Beautiful book. Please keep in mind that this also comes with the deck of cards that I was unaware of because it only describes the book so I ordered a deck of cards as well so I have a extra deck but well worth it.
I love these cards and the book that comes with them! I am not all that experienced when it comes to reading cards, so I still need a book. This is a book--not a little booklet. And it has FOUR pages for each card! The first ~1.5 pages tell you about the card illustration, the meaning of the card, and the reverse. The rest tells the traditions and stories of the animal in Druid history that make the animal come alive.The cards are beautiful and have all sorts of extras that relate to the animal, the times and the Druids. They are of the larger variety and I have small hands so I have to shuffle them sideways, but that works just as well for me. They are good card stock and glossy, but not overly glossy.The book is great! For each card, it gives the Druid name of each animal first. Then it lists the gifts, qualities or abilities of the animal. The part I love most is that it tells you about the illustration. Why the animal is painted in the surrounding that it is in, what the plants, trees or flowers are that relate, about symbols shown carved in rocks, and so on. In addition to that wonderful feature, it is beautifully written! When I first got these cards, I went to the first card, The Blackbird, and began reading, first about the illustration.... which shows a blackbird sitting in a rowan tree with the entrance to an enchanted cave in the background. It is twilight and the first stars are just appearing....the Blackbird "calls to us from the gateway between two worlds. . . . He calls to us in the twilight, showing us the path to Otherworldly secrets..." It is so beautifully written that I fell in love with the Blackbird (and the book) instantly.I love these cards so much that I bought another set for my sister for her birthday. But because the U.S. edition no longer comes with the scarf, I splurged and bought hers off the U.K. page. The U.S. edition does not come with the scarf anymore, sadly, but a large poster instead with card layouts front and back--I haven't used it because it is very large in order to accommodate the large cards, and therefore sort of awkward.The U.S. edition has a nicer box! Very sturdy. The inner box slides out the right side with a pull-ribbon, always a nice feature. The UK edition box isn't as nice or sturdy; just a regular type of box that has a flap closing at top, but a nice, glossy finish with the gorgeous hawk card illustration on front. Then it also has a slide-out inner box that slides out the top--I don't think there's a pull-ribbon since it is a regular "box-top" closing. The slide-out box also holds the cards in a cut-out area on bottom, with the scarf and book on top. I noticed my sister had a difficult time sliding the inner box back in after unfolding the scarf and maybe things weren't so perfectly flat anymore, so she was having trouble sliding it all back into the flimsier U.K. box and closing the box top. The U.S. version box has the Stag on front. The UK book is hardback versus the U.S. version which is paperback. Both books are the same size.The books are larger than the cards, so the cards nest in a smaller cut-out portion underneath the book within the slide-out, inner box. The cards do not have their own box. Therefore I have mine tied in a pretty ribbon that also makes it easy to lift them out of the cut-out bottom of the box. I put the ribbon knot on the side in the little thumb hole notch so everything can lay flat. But with the U.K. edition you can wrap the cards in that pretty scarf. I don't have the U.K. edition in front of me to test this, so don't take my word for it here, but I noted that the cut-out portion in the bottom of the UK box was double-wide and shallower and the cards were evenly separated in two side-by-side piles. I am thinking that layout might be so the cards can be wrapped in the scarf and still fit nicely in the box, but I can't test this because I have the U.S. edition. In the U.S. edition, the cut-out portion in the bottom is single-size and holds all the cards perfectly.The book has lots of extras in the front and back -- different spreads as well as information on Oracles and the Sacred Animals of the Druid tradition, and several charts! There are charts listing the animals in the order they come in the book with page number, the Gaelic name and Qualities & Gifts of each animal. Then another chart listing them alphabetically with page number so you can easily find them, always with Qualities/Gifts and Gaelic name. There's a pronunciation guide for the Gaelic names. There's a chart grouping them by Qualities & Gifts, showing pairings between certain animals, and again grouping them by their associated elements--love this chart most! There are also some really great spreads and suggestions for doing readings on Druid festival days, such as the Solstices and Equinoxes. So I have done that, and It makes for extra fun as well as extra powerful readings.All of this extra information has contributed to my love for the cards, as well as spurred a greater interest in Druid beliefs and practices, and the connection to my own power animal. I have done several spreads--mostly larger more involved ones because I enjoy the readings so much--and my readings have been AMAZING! So I decided to start keeping a Journal of my readings, showing the layouts, AND very importantly showing relationships between certain cards in the spread! Noting relationships between cards, which the book strongly suggests doing, has been extraordinary in my readings! So in keeping the journal I can draw lines between related cards, and it's easier to note themes such as a predominance of a particular element appearing, relationships between cards on opposite sides of the Druid circle, or a majority of cards reversed. The connections between cards has been just as important as the cards themselves in my readings! So exciting. I have spent hours on most my spreads.This deck was created by people who are part of the modern Druid Order over in the UK, so I feel I can trust this deck of sacred animal cards. I have written the authors email a couple times with questions and always got a timely answer! So you can write and ask anything. That's pretty great too.So..... love them! Beautiful cards and amazing book, exquisitely written to take you back in time, and forward on your journey!
Wonderful product! Not sure why product description doesn't state exactly what is included? The description seems to indicate only a hardback book but I received a boxed set that included the hardback book, deck of cards, a decorated clothe and a nice box for storage. Excellent quality, beautiful color and art. There are 3 blank cards so you may add your own special animals to your deck. I'm extremely pleased with this work from the Carr-Gomms and Worthington. Also very happy with seller, quick delivery and packaged well.
I've wanted these cards for quite awhile. I really like the imagery, but I have a couple issues. One, I thought this set came with a layout cloth. Instead I got a huge paper layout. My second issue is that these cards are MASSIVE. There is no comfortable way to shuffle these at all. The size of the box also seems unnecessary bc you don't get that many cards in this deck. I still like them and will keep this set.
I came to oracle cards via the tarot, and initially saw oracle cards as a sort of poor cousin to tarot -- but not any more. As these and the sister cards, Druid Plant Oracle, prove, oracles can be just as thought-provoking if not more so. I like the fact that oracle decks are also liberated from the suit-and-number scheme that makes the tarot what it is but also limits it. In this case, the beautifully, powerfully rendered animals and landscapes are more than enough to stimulate the reader -- and I should add that the accompanying book is very helpful and interesting for interpretation (as well as lore, if that's your thing).I have used the cloth that comes with the cards: better than spreading cards on the kitchen table if that would be distracting, and there is a specific druidic reason for having the printed cloth. On the other hand, I have a dark brown leather footstool that I use, sans cloth. The cards are much bigger than average and I have small hands, but I'd rather have the larger, more visually appealing cards and cope it with it somehow, as I do. The bigger format is worth it. Since I like to combine the Plant Oracle with the Animal Oracle, it can be quite a handful, but that's my choice. I just love these sets!Gorgeous art that is worth looking at for its own sake. But excellent also for private reflection and meditation. Can't recommend highly enough.
I already had the deck and just wanted the hardcover book, but is not hardcover and it also comes with a deck (not that bad to have two) Little dissapointed with the softcover because i use a lot my books and the corners dont last like this. The description is not accurate.
I purchased this for the book. Nice information about spirit animals to add to my library. Because of this I didn't mind getting a used copy.The cards are okay. I like the artwork, but the cards are a skosh large for my hands.I received my order fairly quickly. The product box was in terrible condition. The book has mild damage to the cover. The cards were nearly new condition.Overall I'm satisfied with my purchase.
