Unveiling the Oz Tarot: A Magical Journey for Divinators
A world crafted through wizards, witches, and whimsical creatures provides a beguiling landscape. Welcome to the wonderful world of Oz—now explored through tarot cards. The success of Wicked: For Good has reignited enchantment for the not-so-wicked tales of Oz. This mystical narrative makes every fan see The Wizard of Oz with new eyes. Stepping into this magical realm, The Wizard of Oz Tarot Deck and Guidebook invites you to rediscover the legendary characters and places in a fresh light.
A New Tarot Experience
Created by Erica Davis and illustrated by Davide Ortu, this tarot deck holds a spellbinding charm. It’s suitable for both seasoned divinators and curious beginners alike. Personally, I find myself straddling that midnight path between proficient and curious. I’ve been reading tarot a few years, navigating between intuitive insights and trusty guidebooks. The addition of the Oz-themed deck enhances this collection. It transports you from Kansas to Oz while unraveling timeless tales through new lenses.
Dive into Oz’s Rich Imagery
The 78-card deck embraces Oz and Kansas, reimagining tarot’s traditional suits and imagery. Here, you’ll find Cans, Brooms, Spears, and Bricks. Each suit bridges between the major and minor Arcana, including foretelling characters like Dorothy and Glinda. Expect captivating sepia tones mingling with vibrant rainbows, drawing from iconic film visuals. The Kansas twister and Dorothy’s house make memorable appearances.
Are the cards a tad large? Perhaps. However, they compensate with ornate designs and a captivating guidebook. For beginners, the guide’s "Understanding Your Tarot Deck" section lays a solid foundation. It demystifies deck nuances, making it approachable for everyone.
Exploring the Depth of Each Card
The thrilling guidebook dives deep into each card, bridging Oz’s narrative richness with tarot’s symbolic marvels. You can discover card meanings both upright and reversed. Interpretations reveal how scenes and characters embody each card’s essence. Yet, artistry invites personal interpretation based on moods and desires.
Erica Davis clearly adores The Wizard of Oz, bringing her experience as a tarot reader into a finely woven tapestry of insight and enchantment.
The deck also comes with a sturdy protective box to preserve your cards, and its price of $27.99 makes it even more delightful. Release day is March 11, and you don’t want to miss your chance to step into this magical realm. Choose your path and let the magic of Oz’s tarot guide you.
