#MidYearTarotTag 2024 a VR to @chaneldays: no-buy/low-buy edition (mostly Indie w/ MM options below) Emmay the Gray 2024-07-15 | I'm late to the party, but this is the original video: youtu.be/rrWvq2s6YcE?si=X9kLIbrjxevldgepSince I haven't been bringing in new decks, this is mostly 'shopping my shelves'The questions:1.

Indie: Modern Mary Oracle by RedFish tarot (Etsy) MM: Druidcraft: I've been chuckling for years that this is the deck I wanted to hate and bought to practice modifications but it stuck and we read well together6. Deck Crush - MM - Wild Unknown Archetypes Indie option would be Solar Occulto tarot/oracle7. Fave Tarot Card - Indie: The Sun from Outsider Tarot MM: Herbcrafters - The Fool (Dandelion) ok, it's a tie with the High Priestess (mugwort)8. Indie: Tarot Ultraviolet.te (kickstarter) MM: Queer Tarot - the colors!9. Indie: Brady Tarot MM: Cantigee Oracle10. Indie: Peculiar Pathways Tarot is shipped; Magic Pantry Tarot maybe arrives by end of year (both Kickstarters) MM: No wishlist, really. I don't have a Thoth deck so may check that out eventually.11.

State of the collection - Tarot and Oracle Decks added in 2023 - (with list in Description notes) Emmay the Gray 2023-11-08 | mentioned: Logan's channel @LarkandLegend Lenormand series video one: youtube.com/watch?v=ej-f5EVGWy0[Random aside: the corner of my makeshift 'tripod' of cat litter box is visible and why do I sound out of breath?]Here's the list if you'd rather read than watch:What showed up in my collection this year? I thought I was bringing in "less" but when I assembled the list, I was still a little horrified. Not in terms of money spent, so much as having more decks than I can use effectively in rotation. I did gift away about 10 decks and am considering another cull.Decks I backed last year that arrived in 2023:Brother to Brother OracleBlue Earth TarotLiterary TarotGreen Glyph LenormandDecks I bought at end of 2022/beginning of 2023:Cantigee OracleTaro as ColourDecks I bought used from trade groups that were already on my wishlist:Guided Hand TarotMoonlit Hermit TarotSomewhat impulse buys LLewllyn sale promo coinciding with birthday:Tarot of the Hidden RealmGilded Tarot Royale mini editionThe Prophet OracleInto the Lonely Woods OracleCirce TarotDecks I bought using "points":Squidcake MarseilleWilliam Blake TarotWoodland Wardens OracleDecks I backed on Kickstarter in 2023 which have already arrived:Tarot Ultraviolet.teBlack Salt TarotArcane Warrier TarotDecks I received as gifts:Stitchery Witchery TarotTarot I Naibi de Giovanni VacchettaDecks I back on Kickstarter in 2023 which have not arrived yet:Solara Occulta Tarot (in shipping mode now)Embroidered Graveyard Oracle 2nd edition (might ship this year)Gay Marseille Tarot( I forgot to mention this one in the video - 2024 est. delivery)Peculiar Pathways Tarot (2024 est. delivery)Full disclosure, I hate to do this but I did back then cancel my pledge for the Noble Moon tarot - because of overlap with some decks already in my collection and also because I didn't realize when I backed it that the campaign for Peculiar Pathways was opening at the same time, which I had already decided to back.Decks releasing in 2024 that I have on my radar:Rachel Pollack - Shining Tribe reissueCedar McCloud/Numinous - Magic Pantry Tarot
