There’s something deep and carnal about the Delta Enduring Tarot deck. It haunts, it beckons you to shuffle it over and over (more on that later), and it is utterly beautiful. I jumped in late on purchasing this deck, as it wasn’t even on my radar until after it was released in December 2017. There was a Kickstarter for this deck that I somehow did not know about – which is a good thing because I would have literally died from anticipation waiting for this gem to be released.
The deck creator Egan wrote a beautifully written guidebook. The book is in English and 153 pages long. There’s one spread and all the meanings include reversals. The book is a separate purchase, but I believe is a worthwhile expense to go with this unique deck. The meanings are deep and offers a new spin on the old, standard meanings, which I really appreciate.
The deck is standard tarot sized and tends to follow the Rider Waite Smith system, albeit there are some additional cards to the deck mix, such as The Termite Swarm, Mardi Gras, The Hurricane, and the Heat. There are also some changes to the major arcana names, such as Harm Reduction for Temperance and the Levee for the Tower.
The shuffibility of this deck is amazing. In my video review, I was hesitant to riffle shuffle my new Delta Enduring Tarot because I was concerned I would harm the backs of the cards. I have to be more gentle on my independent decks because a) the creators may only do one print run and I will not be able to get a replacement; b) the card backs are gentle and can be easily damaged; and c) independent decks are expensive. After the initial few over hand shuffles featured on my unboxing video, I dived into riffle shuffling and this bitch just sings! The cards easily shuffle and from what I can tell, without damaging the gorgeous card backs. Have you ever shuffled a deck and it felt like it was buttery flapjacks easily falling on top of one another – this is this deck! It shuffles like a dream.
The card stock is above average, in terms of ease of shuffling. It appears to have a smooth finish, and slightly more on the glossy side. There are borders, but I do not mind them, as they frame the images nicely. Some might take issue with the borders, but to each his own. The deck is also average tarot size, which is helpful in shuffling the cards.
The deck has a good mix of animals, humans and objects as the subject matter in the tarot cards.
This deck is a modern narrative of the Delta experience. It is hot, spicy, painful, joyful, and really does cover the gamut of the tarot experience. Having spent many summers near the Delta, I can personally say this deck has successfully captured the essence of the spirit of this region. The mysticism, the good food, the fearful moments juxtaposed against the joyful times, all are encapsulated in this deck. It is exactly what I hoped for in a modern day, melanated deck. I can tell Egan put their heart and soul into this deck, bringing the Delta experience to all of us who know it and those of us who do not know the magic and the pain of this region of America.
The deck can be viewed and purchased on the Egan’s website at deltaenduring.com.
What are your thoughts on the Delta Enduring tarot deck? Do you own or plan to purchase this deck?

Every now and then a deck comes along and haunts you, taunting you to buy it. That was this deck for me. I watched many videos, had many Amazon ads entice me, until several months later I finally broke down for a Black Friday sale and purchased it. I am drawn to its Tim Burton art style, the unique take on the RWS system’s meanings, and it has a decidedly cool factor going on.
Created by Cristina Benintende, this 78 deck It is standard Lo Scarabeo card stock and It has a little, multi-lingual white book. I’ll admit, I have not worked much with this deck, as the purpose of me getting it was for the heartbroken and grief stricken seekers/readings. I may do another follow up review of this deck in the future to share how we’ve been getting along.
Do you have this deck? What are your thoughts and what types of readings do you do with it?

Some of my greatest teachers are my tarot guidebooks. I consult my guidebooks from time to time, when I have a little downtime. I am now at a stage in my tarot journey where I do not consult the guidebook during readings, unless I am specifically called to do so. But, it is still important to have guidebooks and study what works for you and your home in terms of storage.
Here’s my collection of tarot guidebooks. Soon to come is another video on my favorite tarot and oracle deck guidebooks video. This book collection review was filmed on November 12, 2017, and since then, Tarot on Earth by Tom Benjamin is now on my book’s must have wishlist.

Hey There! Here’s my least used tarot decks of the year:
1. Morgan Greer
2. Thelema Tarot
3. Centennial RWS
4. Wheel of the Year
5. Tie between Steampunk Tarot and the Modern Spellcasters

Hi Tarot Family ~ my apologies, as I had a tipsy moment at the Tarot of the Ages part of this video. I attempted to edit that part out, but was unsuccessful – so, instead of scrapping the entire video, I decided to post it, because I had some real connections that night with my decks. Anyways, here’s my list of most used decks for 2017. These are decks I primarily used for others in tarot readings, but on occasion I have used them for personal readings and they did a phenomenal reading each time. Watch the above videos as to why these decks made my 2017 list.
The Stretch Tarot
Tarot of the Ages
Triple Goddess Tarot
Cosmic Tarot
Sensual Wicca Tarot
Everyday Witch Tarot
Celtic Tarot
The Dreams of Gaia (yes, I’m considering this one Tarot)
Honorable Mention – Sun and Moon Tarot in a Tin! I take this deck for granted so much, as I always forget about it, but it goes everywhere with me!

Hi~ Here’ s the latest addition to my collection – the Spirit Within Tarot by Steven Bright. This deck is Rider-Waite-Smith based, modern and I am finding I already have connected in a big way to it. I purchased my deck through Barnes and Nobles and it was super fast shipping to receive it (even rivaling Amazon!). Definitely a deck worth checking out.

There are several publishing houses that create oracle and tarot decks, and Hay House is one of the larger outfits that produce tons of decks each year. Hay House was the first publisher of the decks I gravitated towards in the beginning of my Oracle Divination journey.
Their decks contain universal themes, are uniform in size, and are easy to obtain through Hay House’s website or on Amazon. The included guidebooks offers a generous amount of guidance and some even offers unique spread ideas for the oracle deck. The storage boxes are sturdy, which for those of us who likes to keep our decks in their boxes, is a gift.
Hay House creates mass produced decks, which is a good and bad thing. A good thing because it makes it so easy to obtain replacement decks if need be and you will not have to wait very long for a copy to be shipped. On the other hand, you can count on several people in the world holding the same Hay House decks you have, which may bother some people. For me, as long as the deck resonates with me or fulfills a specific need in my readings, I do not mind that every Tom, Dick and Harry in the world also owns that same deck.
In the above video, I discuss my Hay House collection in detail. Hay House was the producer of my very first oracle decks – Goddess Guidance Oracle and Messages from Your Angels Oracle Cards, both created by Doreen Virtue. I still have the Goddess Guidance Oracle, but have since gifted the Messages from Your Angels Oracle to a teenager who is just beginning his tarot and oracle journey. The Goddess Guidance Oracle is accurate and is both for “prescriptive” and “predictive” guidance in nature. I have worn this deck out over the years with constant on and off use of it.
I now have amassed a collection of oracle and tarot decks from many publishers, but Hay House is still one I check out from time to time. My last Hay House deck purchased was the Sacred Travelers Oracle by Denise Linn – I adore this deck! I also love Earth Magic by Steven D. Farmer. Collette Baron-Reid also has some phenomenal Hay House decks.
What’s your favorite publishing house of oracle and tarot decks? Do you own many Hay House decks, and if so, which ones?
Much Love and Many Blessings, Kim Abundant Life Tarot
