- Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2016OK Ok Ok. I finally broke down and got this deck. I wasn't going to at first but I kept seeing it on Instagram and finally just decided to do it. I was king of boycotting it because as you can expect, the whole deck pretty much featured white women and featured almost zero diversity. That didn't bother me for a long time but let's face it... it's 2016 and people of all colors read Tarot and have been for hundreds of years. It's time to see some color. With that said, I do understand that this is a vintage deck and the artwork during the Victorian Era would not have had such diversity. Also I really love Victorian design despite the lack of ethnicity so I caved.
I'm so happy that I did because the images really are quite stunning. It's very feminine and I've been on the hunt for a really good deck that has divine feminine energy. I feel like this is definitely a great deck for that purpose especially when working with the darker energy of the feminine. The descriptions are well done and so far, I have had pretty clear readings. The book is great and features a good amount of well thought out tarot spreads that are original and totally fit the theme. And as if that weren't enough, the box is stunning. I mean pure magic. It is silver gilded and very sturdy. I've paid twice as much for a deck that wasn't half as well done as this one.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2019This is a quality deck. The solid two-piece slide box, sturdy card stock, the book, even the card size- everything is sturdy and well done. The images a pretty and inviting, she uses some pieces of art from the great masters in her collages, along with other paintings or vintage photographs. This deck isn’t as striking, clean and crisp, visually, as the “Oracle of Mystical Moments” (both collage decks), but this is still quite stunning. This deck’s guidebook and write-ups for individual cards are far and away better than the The Oracle of Mystical Moments deck, the meanings are concise,clear and meaningful; this deck reads very well. This set has really well thought-out details in the guidebook, they are shorter and less flowery than other decks, but it’s very easy to read with. I read with this Oracle deck often, I’d like to see more from this team. I use tarot and Lenormand more than Oracle decks, but I’d hate to lose this one. I wish (some) other deck writers put real thought into their guidebooks as this writer did, they’re just wonderful. I particularly like the “Chatelaine” spread for general subject reads and specific guidance alike. If you like oracles, get this deck, I feel confident that you’ll enjoy working with it. I’m probably going to grab a backup copy while it’s still $12. I edged mine with Sakura Micron Identi-Pen in “Brown” ( a warm rich red-brown) which is a waterproof ink that seals the edges nicely.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2017This is such a lush, gorgeous deck. It had caught my eye a few times as I perused various oracle decks on Amazon to supplement my Tarot readings, but somehow I always passed it by. But a few youtube reviews later and I hit "add to cart." I amxiously awaited its arrival and it meet all my expectations.
Some people have exaggerated the size of the cards. They're larger than typical Tarot cards, but so are many oracle deck cards. These are about the size of any of Doreen Virtue's cards-- a little big but not overwhelming. But they are anything but airy-fairy. There is something timeless in the combination of vintage photos, sepia tones, old letters, artwork, pressed flowers and lace.. There is a deep feminine vibe, but not a "girly" vibe. They evoke feelings of the past, whether my own past or that of my ancestors.
There is something about the cards that enables you to really enter into the scene. Maybe it's because the images are so multi-layered that they're almost three dimensional. The themes of the cards, including "Sanctuary," "Kindred Spirits," "Patience," "Surrender," and so many more, really resonate with me. I appreciate the lack of fluffy New-Age imagery. The guidebook is wonderful as well.
There are some wonderful-sounding spreads with appropriately-vintagey names in the guidebook. I haven't tried these yet, having done primarily one-card daily draws so far. I tend to go overboard with new decks and do way too many readings to try them out, so I'm easing my way into this one. But it's my new favorite. I just connect with it, more than other oracle decks I own. I think of this deck as being particularly for women (as all the figures are women); adolescent and teenage girls would like it as well.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2024This is one of my favorite decks! I purchased it as a gift for a friend whom I knew would love it as well. I love the art and the messages it conveys. I am sure I will purchase it again.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2025This is a very lovely deck with beautiful artworks. Love the size and feel of the cards. One of my favorite Oracle deck!

5.0 out of 5 stars My Amazing Vintage Wisdom Oracle Cards.
Oh My Goddess! What do I say about this Oracle deck! Now I'm a Tarot person and I've more tarot decks as compared to oracle decks. But this oracle deck really called out to me in the sense that I felt I had to own this and I had to work with it. And I'm glad I purchased it and it beautifully sits in my collection.
The cards and book comes in a very nice luscious, steady and hardcover box. The box is beautifully embossed with silver spirals vines. The box has a very matte finish, which is cool. This is an oracle deck so many oracle decks the cards are on a larger side. Of lately I'm very impressed and pleased with U.S. Games Systems' work regarding card stock because the cards are very durable, thick and sturdy. It also has a very matte feel to them.
The book is about the size of the cards and has about 80 pages of information including information about the author. I like how the author described in the introduction that she never planned to create an oracle deck in the first place. But it was all a series connected events that led to the birth of this oracle deck. This oracle deck is a very feminine deck, it has a lot of feminine energies. So this deck is fit to be called an inspired deck that has aspects of Divine Feminine.
The artwork is a collection of pictures from old, vintage postcards. Each card has this depiction of timeless beauty innately in all aspects. This deck consists of 52 cards. They are great for daily draws or three cards. I like when deck creators fashion new and creative spreads when they create their deck. So you get five custom made spreads like Spy Class Spread, Penny Farthing Spread, etc. There so of details and symbols in this deck that you have got to see them in person. I absolutely in love with these cards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vintage wisdom oracle : jeu original et magnifique
J'ai un vrai coup de coeur pour ce jeu. L'univers est vraiment original. Les images vintages sont douces, un brin romantiques et bien choisies. On retrouve des mots clefs de d'autres oracles, mais leur interprétation dans le livret sort de l'ordinaire, de ce qui est habituellement servi par les auteurs. Les textes sont riches et pertinents dans l'ensemble. Pour chaque carte l'auteur met quelques mots sur le choix de l'image et l'attitude des personnages. Cela permet de mieux saisir ses choix et de mieux rentrer dans le jeu, pour mieux s'en servir (ce qui me fait dire qu'elles sont bien choisies). Le livret propose 5 tirages, qui eux aussi ont le mérite de sortir des lieux communs. Il y manque juste des exemples.
La présentation est magnifique et soignée. La boite est satinée ainsi que les cartes. Celles-ci glissent bien et sont plutôt de bonne qualité. Elles sont un peu grandes, mais en les mélangeant doucement on s'en sort (je n'ai pas de grandes mains).
En résumé, c'est un jeu qui graphiquement plaira aux personnes aimant le vintage-romantique et cherchant un peu d'originalité. Il mériterait d'être traduit en français (avis aux éditeurs...).
