HazelJane Tarot | Faery Wicca Tarot - how to pronounce the titles in Irish @HazelJaneTarot | Uploaded March 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Have you ever wondered how to say the words in Irish on the Faery Wicca Tarot? I've spent hours working it out so you don't have to! Lol.
Yes I am Irish but I am not a fluent Irish speaker. I am a student of Irish and discovering this deck has been part of that journey for me. These pronunciations and translations are accurate to the best of my knowledge.
I am learning Ulster Irish. There are 3 dialects of Irish with sometimes subtle, sometimes not differences between them. All three are "correct".
To prepare for this video I did ask more fluent Irish speakers for help. I also used the two websites below which are very reputable online dictionaries for Irish.

The deck used is the Faery Wicca Tarot by Kisma K Stepanich and published by Llewellyn in 1999. I am sorry to say it is currently out of print. It is the only tarot deck I am aware of that uses the Irish language.
The Irish used but not written on the cards is written as below:
The four "gifts of the Faery" as Gaeilge are:
slat choill - the Hazel wand
brainse úllach - apple branch
cloch coisricthe - holy stone
mála corr - crane bag
The numbers 1 to 10 for playing cards are:
An t-aon _________
An do
An trí
An ceathair
An cúig
An sé
An seacht
An t-ocht
An naoi
An deich
