This is such an amazing deck and I have nothing in my collection like it. I lose myself in the layers and symbolism in each card. Thank you, Neil, for giving us this deck, and thank you, Simon for presenting it with so much thoughtfulness.
My gosh there is just something about this deck. I've had it for less than a month and I'm mesmerized. The aqua colored butterfly on the fool card really stands out to me and i always look for it when flipping through the deck.
Was hooked on every word! I got this when it was released. it was my first Limited Edition and I absolutely adore this deck, the many hidden images and secrets it holds. Wonderful review.
Yes you did comment that you might have changed your mind 😆 I love this deck, I was so happy when I was able to get a copy. I love that it’s like walking through a grand house and gardens, I do tend to do pathworking with this deck it’s so cool to go into the images. I am pleased you have a copy my friend 😍❤️
Hello Simon, this is quite an interesting deck, watching the walkthrough at the end with the music was a relaxing experience the deck and images felt very familiar to me like I was walking through a museum or an archeological site in Rome or Greece, or my own home or backyard hard to explain the feelings I’ve just experienced, thanks for sharing. ✌🏻
I love this deck so much. It is my go-to when I want a bit of indulgence and want to really take my time. I don’t use it to read for others because I don’t find it a quick read. I have to really sit with it but I feel like that is the point. This deck is sort of like the card version of a solarium and I feel like you are meant to pause here for a while. (If that makes sense.)
It is like wandering a garden or urban exploration: You pause and wonder on the lives that passed through, on the beauty that is and was. It is a bittersweet smile you wonder the story behind.
Thank you for sharing this deck Simon. It is absolutely exquisite. Such amazing detail. You can tell it was lovingly created by someone who was acquainted with artistic masterpieces.
Very different deck. It was ice to see but not one I would be motivated to buy since I don't thik it would be one I would want to use. It certainly is visually intriguing and complex. Thanks Simon to showing another very interessting and unique deck. 💕💜🌹🙏🌹💜💕
I resisted buying this deck for ages, but Sarah at Sunset Bough convinced me as well! I have ZERO regrets. I find it so beautiful and calming to look at and work with. And I've been pleasantly surprised that I've been able to get some new/different messages from some of the really subtle things in the deck.
Out of Stock already! Wonder if they'll do another run? Loved your walk through but then I always love your walk throughs! Great close ups, music and your commentary. Thanks, Simon. Anne
Thanks for the lovely presentation Simon. Lovely, however this is a deck I’m not going to be acquiring as it’s WAYYY-YY too busy for me to be able to read with it. Although it’s beautiful with lots of richness to the images, it’s too busy. Thanks for your video. Always enjoy your reviews. Light and love to you and all the cavers ♥️
I hope that is that clear why I didn’t buy it for so long, however having it in my hands are certainly changed my opinion. It’s not going to be for everybody 🙏🏼❤️
I know someone already mentioned the Facebook study group, but in addition to that there is a file in that group, or actually a link, that you can get the community created guide printed from Lulu. There is so much going on in the deck and unfortunately, Joe, the creator's brother, doesn't have the info on the "why's" and the symbolism used; but, that said it doesn't stop this deck from being lovely in my eyes. I call it my Secret Garden deck, if you know the book then you know why. Glad you took the plunge. It is a deck to sit with for sure and to "walk" through. Lovely for the imagination...well, for me it is.
I don’t do Facebook. Would you be so kind as to post the link to the community created guide that I can purchase from Lulu? I have been searching Lulu and and I can’t find it. It would be greatly appreciated. Thank-you. 💕
Beautiful deck. I've tried to get my hands on it for a couple of years now. I don't think it's meant to be . . . possibly for the best. If I'm honest with myself I'm actually not sure I'd read with it. But it is absolutely magically stunning art!
I think it would be brilliant for ancestral or land spirit work, or for dream processing work (so many of my dreams are about houses.) I wonder if it might work for reading to locate lost items too, a bit like you can with lenormand? Enjoy it, I have Lovells Arabian Lenormand and his Wizard Laird Lenormand and I love them. The quality and detail is beautiful. I grew up in the next village to Neil and that area is full of spooky houses like this!
Beautiful, and your style of reviewing this deck sort of complements the art style... Really lovely. Isn't the Empress Artemis of Ephese? Hope they reprint soon.
What a slow burn deck. It ticks so many of my boxes, but still I pass on it. I think it would make an exquisite gift for a tarot friend. But not for me.... I love the courts, the usual masc fem dynamic is lessened (except for the literal portraits) but the elemental correspondences are the same as what I go with. Great for me. The Victorian / Georgian stately home, not unlike the buildings a gardens that surrounded my youth. Those cards I could almost smell the dusty, worn smell of lemon waxed floors and leather bound books, fires in the hearth with tea and cakes served at 5pm. Of dead-heading plants in the kitchen garden and the smell of an old water feature. The world the cards conjour is one that has just been deserted or frozen in time. Where there used to be staff and the running shoes of children. Is silence. Of a study that creaked and moaned with the weight of knowledge and enterprise, was left in a stasis, ready for the velvet drapes to be drawn, a fire lit and a cigar to burn in an ashtray. All of this is my impression of a world that wasn't mine, in any shape of the word. I can only assume and imagine the horror that made the inhabitants flee. Was it a curse on the whole life force of the grounds? Even the horses and dogs perished between night n day? You see I would be distracted from reading 'tarot' and reading the 'Stories of the Grounds' . How the wealth was created, where there is gain another had to loose; the tragic and bloody disputes this wealth created within the home; the secrets and hidden away indiscretions and desires. Aha ! This is a very Pluto - nium type of energy. Dagnamit I was trying to convince myself I don't want this deck. 😂 I've only just re-subscribed @hermit's cave, because I needed a break to get my FOMO in check. I missed your ASMR type of deck reveals. If anyone has read thus far, thanks for your time. Pretty gorgeous deck though. X

I find this deck a little hard to read but I bought them anyway. I love your cloth and reading space. It's beautiful. Thanks for showing us. 🙏
You are so welcome, thanks for watching 😍

What a discovery! Such a beautiful, delicate deck. Love it ❤
You did such a beautiful job of showing us this deck. It is so beautiful! Not exactly my cup of tea, but gorgeous nonetheless.🌟
Thank you for sharing this deck Simon. It is absolutely exquisite. Such amazing detail. You can tell it was lovingly created by someone who was acquainted with artistic masterpieces.
It really is a beautifully stunning deck. Love it. No idea why it took me so long! 🙏🏼❤️

It certainly has its only energy!
@Six of Wands It's a beautiful card, that's for sure! It has such a classic, elegant feel, doesn't it? 🥰
Out of Stock already! Wonder if they'll do another run?
Loved your walk through but then I always love your walk throughs! Great close ups, music and your commentary. Thanks, Simon.

Has it sold out again?

Thank you so much Eline. Very kind of you to say 🙏🏼❤️
I have many decks like this these days X;D I just put back the Green witch tarot on my wishlist and now I can't even understand why I took it off XDD
I know, right!? 😆

I read till the end and I appreciated hearing your thoughts on the deck. Welcome back 😍
@@the_hermits_cave awww thank you 🤗
Do you know when these will be available again...she asked wistfully...
I heard an anniversary edition is due out soon
@@the_hermits_cave I went to the site - missed it!
I don´t like wash out pictures! So, for me it´s an ugly deck.
