  • This is an unboxing of the brand new Heavenly Bodies Astrology Deck by Lily Ashwell! This deck is stunning and production is top notch for a mass market deck. I was very surprised because this is a Cicco Books Publication and their decks have mostly been misses for me.
    Take a look and tell me what you think. As always, thank you for watching and spending time with me!

    I was on amazon just now to see how much the arcana of astrology deck is because I've been interested in that one for a long time but then this deck popped up as a recommendation and at first the pastel colors grabbed me so I decided to check out this review and walkthrough of it but now that I'm here and looking at the art style and images I'm really not feeling at it all. It's an art style that I know many people are into but it doesn't resonate with me personally. However I appreciated the keywords! I highly agree with them and they feel the most accurate to me out of all the astrology oracle decks that I've checked out and the guidebook meanings also seem very knowledgeable, well thought out, and accurate! I love me a good guidebook, it's a major factor that makes or breaks a deck for me so who knows, maybe this deck will win me over! 😊💜

    • @oldsoulmermaid1543
      @oldsoulmermaid1543  Před 3 lety

      I think both decks are winners. Both books are written in a very accessible style, so it really just depends what style and aesthetic you prefer. You can’t lose with either one. Maybe I should do a side by side comparison video of both decks?

      @oldsoulmermaid1543  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes, I’ve been working with Claire’s deck and for a beginner, keywords would be nice, but I get that it might not have worked with her minimalist aesthetic. Claire’s writing is wonderful for making astrology accessible to the beginner...and this deck does that to.

    Bonnie, thank you for this video. I'd been looking for something like this, and I find this so gorgeous ... the muted colors, the textures, the stamped-images aesthetic, the cardback design. And those quotes included on the box/book are so lovely! It's funny, I find myself unexpectedly falling in love with two decks that have a collage-type art style, which is not something I usually gravitate toward. The decks are the Tarot of Mystical Moments (I'm excitedly waiting for the EU release on April 1 so my order can finally arrive) and this one. I think it's due to the fact that the artists, Catrin for MM and Lily for the horoscope deck, blend the images well and it looks more artistic and like an actual piece of artwork or painting, instead of layered images that don't (to my eye) look as cohesive. Your walkthroughs were a big part in my decision to get the decks! :) I really enjoy your videos so much, listening to you and hearing your thoughts on things. I respect your opinions a whole lot!

    • @oldsoulmermaid1543
      @oldsoulmermaid1543  Před 3 lety

      Thank you’re much. It’s so funny because I am a huge fan of collage are decks…it’s my preferred genre for decks. One genre that I’m not a huge fan of is the super fan tasty art with buxom glamorous females and males with six pack abs. Not that they are not beautiful, I just can’t read with them. I had 2 Ciro Marchetti decks that I passed on because I couldn’t read with them. But the exceptions are the Bianca Nero Tarot and the Darkness of Light Tarot. I love these 2 decks! It just goes to show you just never know what can happen when you go against type!

      @@oldsoulmermaid1543 Ooh I hear you on the super buff and glamorous fantasy people. Not that I don't like eye candy, of course, but I can't connect well with those either! And you're totally right, it's amazing what happens when you find yourself more open to things you don't normally gravitate toward. :) Speaking of collage and Mystical Moments, I'm going to order the oracle to go with the tarot. I realized (also you mentioned this in one of your videos, I think, about perfect pairings?) that the Mystical Moments oracle would go so well with a whole range of tarot decks. I love the dreamy, whimsical feel. I think that's the feel I love most, regardless of art style!

    • @oldsoulmermaid1543
      @oldsoulmermaid1543  Před 3 lety

      I fell in love with the Oracle of Mystical Moments very early in my discovery of tarot. When I found out that there was going to be a Tarot deck I was overjoyed! I’ve been reading with both decks for the past few weeks and they work seamlessly together. I link you will enjoy the experience!
