Lisa...your anti haul videos are so very inspiring and I now do the same comparisons with my existing decks when I look at Kickstarter. I am getting very discerning when it comes to buying new decks. I have the same opinion with the Story Medicine and Tarot of the Crone decks but I, however, did buy the Gentle Tarot and backed the special Avatara bundle of three decks in the early morning release. I won't be buying the Mother Mary/ black Madonna for the same reason. Too expensive. 😱😱Today I backed the Sacred Bee Oracle cos I love love the JOSB tarot and the Drowning World Tarot cos of the Carnival at the end of world is a special deck which has a circus themed deck lov lucy🙏💞
I am obsessed with Alice and Tarot in Wonderland ! I think this is the best Alice Tarot out there, and I also have The lucy Cavendish Alice Oracle as well !
I love the artwork on the Brady. The key words kind of turned me off, but I've reconsidered - again. I think I'm going to have get this one. How is it working out for you?
I clicked so fast for this video 😂 I love your anti-hauls and say yes to the deck! Yes for the side by side comparison of the Way of the Panda Tarot! I was just looking into this deck yesterday. 😊
I just got my Cosma Visions “Christmas in March” box! I can’t decide what to work with first...the oracle deck or the coins! I’m going to have to flip a coin! I have talked myself so far, out of the Oak, Ash, and Thorn deck because animal decks are not my go-to’s. But, I feel myself weakening...
Good job talking yourself out of Oak, Ash & Thorn! And hey... if animal decks aren't your thing but mythical creatures are..... you could always hold out and scoop up Smoke, Ash & Ember instead when it's out!
As a tarot newbie, I found the Everyday Tarot a non obtrusive clarification tool. Really basic. I have to agree the 3 colour palette is really stark. But using it with something like Soul Cards, it doesn't detract from Soul Card's voice. Also it was £7, less than a couple of drinks in a pub. 🤣
Oh man, I love monochromatic decks and the simple art style of Everyday Tarot. I know a lot of people are not into that vector style art but it’s my jam 😆 Gives me a sense of order and control.... but that panda deck is so heartwarming 😆 Also your nails look great... love the color! I’m gonna check out that Frida Kahlo deck... I’ve had a connection with her and her life since I was little. She represents the Latin side of my culture and also my FIRE and PASSION! 😂 Thanks for the video.
As I am commenting this video’s been up for about an hour and you are already amongst nearly 300 other weirdos who apparently love watching these too! 😂 They are truly some of my favorites!
Thank you! There is some great stuff that I havent seen before here!. I like obstacle decks like Phenomena though - they make helpful 1-3 card pulls to pinpoint obstacles or warnings/things to avoid etc
I talked myself out of the Real Sky astrology tarot because I don’t want to start looking at astrology before I finish Tarot on Earth to learn to read pips.
This has been so hard for me to learn! I need to focus on getting through one aspect of tarot before trying to learn another. I just want to learn it all at once 🤣
Don't feel bad about the dice. It feels like you feel really bad and like you have to justify yourself. Well because of you I've found this casting system which is PERFECT for my husband who plays Dnd. We ordered it today and we're very pumped lol. And you're awesome
❤️😊 Geomancy is fantastic -- I'm still impatiently awaiting my Cosma package shipping too! I just started learning this year when I took Kelly's course (which is amazing); the Greer book is very good. Some of these decks I'd never even heard of. I'm slightly surprised you anti-hauled Gentle Tarot (but maybe only because *I* love it so much, which is ridiculous). I did back Phenomena. I missed out on both Amethyst and Idiosyncradeck so I feel like I've been waiting for a deck from her forever. I understand the 'these cards are all disruptive' take on Phenomena; I actually quite liked this if only because I feel like so often, nature is depicted as kind of "just there," not doing anything -- I like that there is so much action in the deck.
These videos have helped me immensely with deck purchasing discernment! I talked myself out of the Chakra Healing Tarot. It was gorgeous and would have loved to dig deep into chakra work but at the end of the day I couldn't justify spending that much money on a deck once shipping was added. Plus the monochromatic-ish cards threw me off, I'm so used to the current color associations with different cards/suits that the new chakra-based ones just don't work for me.
seeing the coins reminded me of another oracle -- reading US State Quarters. there are 50 and theres a great variety in the coins.. like Montana has a cow skull, which can be the way the Death card is read. you get the idea. I have all of them somewhere in a box
I talked myself out of Chris Anne Muse tarot. I love her light seers and I love the sacred creator oracle but couldn't get into the art in the muse. I also love Barbara Moore tarot in wonderland deck. The guidebook with it is wonderful where she explains about the images and what they relate to in the Alice books
Yeah the guidebook for Barbara Moore’s Wonderland is sublime. But Alice is wearing an absolutely horrible pink apron all through which puts me off using it … 🤷🏻♂️
I'm on the exact same page as you with Alice decks. I haven't picked any up, but I am currently most drawn to the Dame Darcy for aesthetic and Barbara Moore for tarot accuracy. My inner child really loves the Disney version, though, and like you, I'm waiting it out!
The Gentle Tarot. I still really want it. I love the art work and that's what draws me to a lot of decks but I am a new tarot person and I'm not really using the decks I have. So I've hit pause on it. I might try to see if I can buy some of the art work so that I can feel the itch.
I am also not a cat person but I own Weird Cat Tarot and I think it is wonderful and adorable and so funny. I rarely ever use it, though. I almost backed Cosma Visions but then I kind of realized it would be almost completely lost on me especially since I don't have Prisma Visions (or the other one...?) and didn't really want it.
Oh my goodness those Geomantic Visions Coins were SO tempting...I ended up not going for them because I just know myself and tarot is really my ride-or-die and I might dabble in other divination methods but they never become huge parts of my practice.....but those coins were so PREEEEETTY 🤩🤩🤩🤩 I almost wanted them just so I could hold them in my hands 😂. Luckily the extra bonus coin that came with all the Cosma Visions pledges has scratched the “I just wanna HOLD one” itch 😆
@@Lisa_Papez looooove the RWS tiles, they live in my custom Peggybag and I use them all the time 😊💖. Is it terrible to admit that sometimes I reach for them because I’m feeling too lazy to shuffle? 😂🤦♀️
I feel like I’m saying no to things all the time because there are so many decks 🤣 But recently I said no to the Future Ancestor Tarot (I have Gentle Tarot and I feel like they fit the same niche) and the Oak Ash and Thorn (which broke my heart, but it’s so pricey with shipping and I backed the Tarot Renard which is all foxes so I’m worried they’ll compete too much.) Can I list a regret buy, too? I kind of regret adding the Prisma Visions Tarot to my Cosma Visions Kickstarter package. I love the idea of Cosma and the art. I love some of the suits from Prisma, but I sort of knew when I added it on that I didn’t really love all of it. And ever since it’s arrived I’ve had no desire at all to reach for it. Something about that wands suit. I have trouble making out the images. The same with some majors. They’re just too small with the borders for me to make out the images. But I’m super excited to dive into the Cosma Visions! 🤷♀️ And I’m finding Kickstarter in general so problematic lately! I want the decks when I back them, but half the time when the decks actually arrive I’m no longer in the same headspace, and so even if I’m excited about that deck, often I don’t really want to start using it right away.
Prisma Visions was the only one I didn't add to that Superbowl of a Kickstarter...I had it a long time ago, and I just wanted to try the Light Visions...le sigh, my box is a weird one, so I wait patiently...kinda.
Great job saying no to the Future Ancestor Tarot!! I may very well regret the Prisma (and Light) Visions I added on to Cosma Visions... lol especially since I previously traded Prisma... hoping i love it this time around but I know I can trade them if I don't get on with them. ;) Also, yes, I find that with Kickstarters I really have to love it to back it now because of that very reason.
Oh! Lisa I just love your anti-haul videos! Really good food for thought. Try as I might I still make impulsive deck purchases some work out, but many don’t. I do now ask myself..... what do I already have in my deck collection that will fill that niche? This video series has helped me be more thoughtful in curating my decks as opposed to just endlessly adding on more and more. I adore Frida Kahlo and have a majorly strong connection to her and her artwork so I was all about the Tarot Avatara..... but when I really thought about it I realized I love Frida I love tarot but I don’t really need a Frida Tarot..... after much thought I realized i just wouldn’t use it. So I did not back it......
Great job talking yourself out of Tarot Avatara. I felt like that one was a hard one to say no to as it had LOTS of hype and i love the artist... so I know that must have been hard if you love Frida too!
I was so close to hitting buy on the Story Medicine, but when I heard there were going to be 4 I decided not to. It is super expensive and I feel like if I let myself get drawn down the 1st rabbit hole I'll end up down the other 3 too - and I really don't want that to happen
Continuing to tell myself that I don’t need the Faunabelle Tarot. I have enough animal decks is my reasoning, yet my mind screams that the artwork is precious and that must have it!! 😩
I have a decent amount of Celtic Decks so when I was trying to decide between The Druid Plant Oracle or the Earth Wisdom Oracle Deck, think I will pass for now due to I bought three Celtic base decks within months from each other and I'll be using those first before I purchase either one of those. I have Ian Daniel's Faerie Deck which are the Welsh base Deitie Deck, the Temple of Goddess Deck which also an Welsh Tribal Deck and the Mists of Avalon Oracle deck, I also have The Shapeshifter Tarot and The Celtic Dragon Tarot, both have had since 2001 (The Celtic Dragon) and 2006 (The Shapeshifter Tarot). I didn't buy another tarot deck till about three years ago and that was the The Green Witch Tarot, which helps with not buying The Everyday Witch Tarot or even the Wizard Tarot, their similar but different and The Green Witch Tarot helps me not given in the itch to buy the other two. I have 3 Tarot decks that are coming out, that I don't havea ''theme'' for. One is The Jack o' Lantern Tarot, cause I don't have an Halloween theme tarot deck...yet and that's coming out at the end of summer, I believe it's US Games that is bringing it out, so it's Mass produce deck. ( Thanks Dustin!) www.Sylvia-Ritter.com - This artist is coming out with an Animal Themed Deck that is very very very different than what I've seen in walk throughs of other animal; themed tarot decks. The 3rd Tarot Deck that I'm very excited for is The Dreamwalker Tarot www.notique.art Dark Themed but from a dreamlike out of space. I also like The Hedgewitch Botanical Oracle, that's also on my wish list
I talked myself out of buying the Mary El tarot yesterday. I have wanted it for so long but I just don’t think I would use it! Instead I bought the Ad Orbita tarot because there’s nothing else like it in my collection and I’ve been feeling very drawn to it. Two very different decks I know!
“Gotta catch ‘em all” energy is so hard for me to resist. 😂 I keep finding examples of decks I don’t really love or “need” that were created by someone whose other deck(s) I totally love. And it’s sooooo tempting. But I’m learning’ - For example, I am about ready to decide that the Urban Crow Oracle is the only MJ Cullinane deck that really resonates with me and sell the others that I own. And I love the Amethyst Oracle but sold my Idiosyncradeck because it just didn’t hit the same for me, and I think that Phenomena deck (which I backed out of FOMO) is going up for sale unopened, and I won’t be backing the new Jessica version of Idiosyncradeck because I don’t like the art as well as the original. Another example: I love Dame Darcy’s mermaid and Alice decks but will not be getting that cat/witch deck. I am a cat person but those cats scare me a bit 😂. On the flip side I got rid of the first 2 Kim Krans decks years ago, feeling I no longer connected with the imagery, but have my eye on her archetypes deck now. Gotta stay flexible and evaluate each deck on its own, right? On that note I really have to sell some on my James R Eads decks. Can I admit I only really truly love the Light Visions, and the others, while super creative, don’t resonate with me the same way?? Maybe that’s a next month project. Or summer... 😂
Yes to allll of this. I keep wanting to connect with MJ Cullinane's work - but I've brought in and traded the Wise Dog, and I'm pretty sure my MM Crow Tarot is going away eventually too. LOL I'm not sure where I'll land with James R Eads decks in the end.... I'm gonna play with em all and we'll see! I had glossy Prisma before and traded it, then I added the matte one on to my KS bundle.... along with Light Visions.... why? Who knows! So we'll see... 😂🤣
@@Lisa_Papez I already didn’t use my glossy Prisma but added on the matte version to my KS pledge because of “completism” I guess. I may now have every deck he’s made, and I really love having and using the Light Visions and the Open Portals decks. I love the artwork and feel of the Lenny deck but I don’t read with Lenormand at all. I think I don’t need Prisma Visions - in any finish - and need to sell those. I’ll try working with this new Oracle first before deciding I don’t need it. But for sure the reading cloth and coin and card stand etc. is just extra STUFF in my house right now. Arrrgh must tame the chaos! 😂 #2021goals
Oooh I was tempted by that sea themed deck that currently on indie gogo. I was drawn to the art style and that it was sea but not mermaids. But I tend not to use animal decks so I had to pass.
Oh me too! It is so pretty. Honestly, I think the fact that it was in Indiegogo and not Kickstarter made it easier for me to skip (just because I have never used Indiegogo).
I picked up a the Everyday Tarot because I wanted to use it to study with. I had such a hard time shuffling it I hosted a giveaway with it X;D The winner was excited to get it so I'm happy haha I want to learn Lenormand and Geomancy because of Kelly X;D Hopefully I'll be able to attend his course this year, that would be great. :) I picked up the Sacred Creators recently (and I realized half the reason is because I can't get the Spread Machine Oracle currently XD), I just filmed the walkthrough and I love how with the first cards you get the Tarot as well. Plus the watercolor was pure paint pron, all I did was erm enjoying them during filming XDD I didn't feel like too many messages were for creatives only, but that might be my view only, so of course understandable how you feel! Haha I absolutely am lusting over the Cirque du Tarot... XD not in a rush to get it, but at some point... XD But you are right, the Joie de Vivre feels similar. Hmm last deck I was tempted... lemme check my notes X;D (I do have notes). The Hush Tarot. I LOVE the artwork, but right now I don't need an autumn "feeling" deck because I still haven't worked with the Wild Wood. (I might be the only one who's so picky about HP that didn't end up picking that deck... I contacted her last year so I think it would be still available.) (What microphone do you use? Sounds so clear and nice!) Ugh, way too long, sorry I made you read this X;D
I’m not sure I’ve ever talked myself out of a deck I wanted. I’ve looked at plenty and decided I didn’t actually care for them, or that they’re beautiful but I can’t afford them. I think I say yes to a few too many decks.
Oh my goodness that Tarot Avatara... I cant believe I missed that kickstarter! I would love that. It's very intense. Oh I hope there are some to buy later.
Have you ever looked into the Considerate Cat Tarot by Madeleine Belanger? I'm not a cat deck person either, but it felt like such a deck of recovery and rehabilitation. It's based on the foster cats and kittens taken in by the creator and is one of my favourite comfort decks. Incredibly reassuring and gentle while still being honest and upfront
The last deck I talked myself out of is the Tarot of Mystical Moments. It's sooooo pretty, but the cards are too large for my smol hands. Or at least, that's what I keep repeating in my head! 🤣
Good job!!! And you an remind yourself, when you're tempted (if you're tempted) that as a Mass Market deck, it'll be around for a while if you change your mind. It's good to know what you'll use (and won't use).
I totally backed the Phenomena Oracle deck on Kickstarter. I love Jessica Bott's work and have all her decks. I had to get it. I'm wanting to work more with nature based stuff, so this deck was right up my alley. 😊💖 I feel like it could combine really well with the Amethyst Oracle, working with both decks together.
I’m really annoyed with myself for not getting an Ember and Aura Tarot deck while I could. They’ve seemingly disappeared unless I want to drop $130 for the ONE left on Etsy... le sigh... This was a fun one, thank you!
I love the simple color palette of the everyday tarot. I find I read better when I don't see details in faces or when there are more abstract images. I don't get as distracted and I can focus on the message instead of the image itself if that makes sense. I use this deck as my "work horse" it is so cheap I have no issues taking it places and I can read any topic with it. The last deck I have said no to several times during and after the kickstarter is Oak, Ash, and Thorn. Beautiful but I have too many that fit that bill...now the dragon deck! Yes!!!! I am on that mailing list and I cannot wait.
I talked myself out of the sister deck to the Goetia tarot by Fabio Listrani. I love the Goetia, and like to complete collections, but don’t need the Angel one as I probably wouldn’t work with it.
The Linescapes Tarot. I still want it and think I would use it but shipping is $34. I just can't spend that much on shipping plus $47 on the deck. It is gorgeous though!
The one I have to continually talk myself out of is The Flux Arcana tarot. The art style is so up my alley--very gothic, pen and ink, looks like old manuscript figures as skeletons, it's so so cool. But unfortunately there's not really enough symbolism on each card for me to work with, I like a pretty full/layered artwork. But it's so cool, maybe I'll have to just buy a print from the guy someday!
...I think this is the first anti-haul of yours I've watched and NOT ended up adding one of your "nos" to my list from LOL. Though I already have the Story Medicine (both, damnit) on my list, and I suspect they'd be great for me, but yeah... SO expensive. Hoping maybe I get an opportunity to trade for them.
I have a lot of Colette Baron-Reid's Decks Goddess Power Oracle, The Crystal Spirits Oracle, Mystical Shaman Oracle, and Animal Spirits and another which I can't remember. The Goddess Power Oracle was one of the first I was drawn too when I was looking at Oracle and Tarot Decks to get, there was just something about it that told me that I need to get it. The Goddess one is also the one I use the Most. The main thing I love about Colette Baron-Reid's decks are they have a lot of Self-Care in them.
I talked myself out of buying the Superlunaris Tarot and The Intuitive Night Goddess Tarot. But I still think the decks are so beautiful.// Love and light from Sweden🙏✨💖
49:17, i talked myself both in...and out... of the "Seed and Sickle" Oracle after seeing it on the Hermit's Cave. Simon strikes again. Talked myself into it because, it is stunningly beautiful vector art, would pair brilliantly with a few tarot decks that i own (like Shadowscapes or A.Castelli's Art Nouveau), and i do not have a Botanical deck yet. Then the Universe talked me out of it, because it does not even release until September! Which gives me time to study Shadowscapes and A.Castelli. One card at a time. "Decks can come into your life for a season, a reason, or a lifetime."
I don't think it's coming out until November!! I could be wrong on that but I believe that's the case so you have LOTS of time!! And I love that you're studying decks you do have in the meantime. There's no hurry, that's for sure! I find sometimes I enjoy the idea of a deck more than working with it - and that's one of the reasons I *lovvvvve* doing walkthrough videos for creators and watching others' walkthroughs... it lets me explore the idea of a deck without necessarily needing to own it. :D
@@Lisa_Papez buzz..buzz..november..okay, that's cool 'cause i just accidentally bought the Herbcrafter's Tarot! well, it was Lammas, what else is a witch to do? The book is like a little grimorie of information. #ooh.latin. and it seemed to combine perfectly with the Seed and Sickle. into the woods we go!
YES! Love it. I LOVE the Gentle Tarot but if you have the Oak, Ash and Thorn it would be sorta a duplicate. The one I recently passed on the T u l k u Oracle. It was too expensive for an Oracle.
Ooh that Hudes Tarot is nice! I regretted buying the Everyday Tarot. I'd have preferred it to be slippy as I just can't shuffle those tiny matt cards. But I still have it cause I have no other small decks and I like the flat, directional style.
Ohhhh I am so picking up the dice reading system I love Astragalomancy. Most dice reading systems use some sort of numerology or they print existing symbol systems such as Tarot or Lenormand, but this is a uniqe dice reading system. I NEEEEEEED it. :D
I nearly bought the nightmare before Xmas deck like 10 times. Now that the initial urge has passed, I’m glad I didn’t get it. I wouldn’t have used it nearly as much as my others You have no idea how many kickstarters I’ve talked myself out of right now! I recently talked myself out of Transient Light and Sacred Relatives. As much as I love them I just can’t spend the money right now, and indie decks are not cheap! I deeply regret not grabbing the spread machine deck on Kickstarter by Fables Den. I know I can still get it but ughhh. Wish I took advantage back then. On a side note would LOVE to see you do a video about “Decks I caved for” 😂 where you show us all the anti haul decks you ended up buying.
Ooooh that's a GREAT idea (to do a video on the decks I caved on) - I'll add that to my list!! -- And great job on talking yourself out of the thingssss! :)
I'm not buying some decks that seem really popular....Mystical Moments Tarot and the oracle, Dreamkeepers Tarot, Pride Tarot, Story Medicine, Avatara, etc. etc.....I say "no" alot....but I say "YES" even more! HeHe!
The first of all your anti-hauls I wanted a deck but whew 😅 it’s out of print (Amethyst Oracle). I talked myself out of the upcoming U.S. Games release of Tarot of the Abyss by Ana Tourian - for now. It’s beautiful and interesting being black and white, but doesn’t appear to have the level of symbolism I prefer to work with. BUT if I see a walkthrough with some incredible nuanced meanings to the archetypes, I do reserve the right to change my mind!
Lisa, as always, I was captivated by this anti-haul. I'm hoping the Tarot de Marsaille Waite to come back in to print. I know that Peggy makes you bags and cloths. I have a Tarot Group that I host once a month. I'm about to do a meeting titled "Tarotphenalia" (specifically: Tarot Accessories). I'm wondering if you might consider doing a youtube on Tarot Accessories? Thanks. -Kim
Hey, the tarot de Marseille-Waite has been put back into print since the solding out a few monts ago. I messaged the editor personnaly. It was suposed to be back in stock around end Feb, but with Covid it is taking longer than expected. No worries, stay patient =)
I love Jessica Bot's artwork. I missed out on the Idiosyncradeck and the Amethyst oracle which is very depressing. I did get her botanical deck just because I love her artwork so much. I just missed the kickstarter for the Phenomena deck but I will probably pick it up
I see you know about it 😂😂😂 I wanted to back Jessica Bot's new deck but I missed it but I will definitely buy it. I have the Botanical Deck and I love it. I love her art work.
Hi Lisa, first of all I wanna say that you look georgeous in this video😉👍☺ ! I decided not to buy the Monstarot although I love the art and it's been on my wishlist for so long . The reason is that I recently fell in love with The Wild Wolf Tarot by Briöna Jolie which I've preordered on etsy. The wolf is my Animal Totem and I've been looking for a wolf tarot for a very long time. I already own the Wolf Pack Tarot Deck by Robert Petro which actually is an Oracle Deck and I love it so much. Maybe the Monstarot will find it's way to me one day but for now I know that I will reach for The Wild Wolf Tarot🐺❤
I talked myself out of The Keymaster Tarot. It is gorgeoussss and grand in a way that it will be a classic forever, but in the end that powerful energy belongs in someone else's hands. It intimidates me in a way that I know isn't putting me in a reading place.
I ended up backing The Phenomena oracle deck maybe an hour or two before the kickstarter ended. I'm sort of fascinated by the weather though, in awe of it even. Was getting all sorts of different vibes from the cards! I can see what you mean though! I missed out on the Amethyst Oracle though, it looks great
I talked myself out of Oak Ash and Thorn, I have more than one animal deck already, and while I really like that deck, I feel like I'm good in that department. I also talked myself out of the Dark Mansion tarot because again I have a couple decks that scratch that itch. But I really wanted it.
I talked myself out of getting the 2nd edition of the Star Tarot by Cathy McClelland, because I didn't want to pay over $30 for a mass market deck. So far I haven't changed my mind, but... yeah, I still really WANT IT! 😁
I always enjoy your videos so much, thanks 😊 i saw someone else mention it and i thought i mention it as well, about the sacred creators, if you haven’t seen a walk through you might want to look at the deck more in depth, i think you might enjoy it a lot. I dont see it as a deck about creativity or for creatives, its more about creating you life, i see it as guidance from the universe. I just think its a great deck for anyone that is on a self discovery journey. But that is just my opinion and i know we all resonate with different things and see things from different points of view but just in case you wanted to give it another look. 🌸✨💕
I talked myself out of backing Yokai Yochi. World cultures is a red thread in my collection... but Japan is not my main area of interest. I was like, but now I have an opportunity to learn about Japanese folklore from the lwb. And then I was like, but I could just read about it from an actual Japanese folklore book. Didn't back by deadline and haven't thought about the deck since. That's not saying I would never get it once it's out and I see the actual final deck. Recently someone shared the supercute Ganershian Village tarot in your FB page. It's now at the top of my list together with the Magical Forest. The rational part of my brain is thinking one of these would be enough because GV is basically MF exclusively with little chubby Ganeshas. But one is a limited edition indie (and India is my main area of interest), while the other one is a much loved classic that doesn't cost very much anyway. So...
Ooooh nice job on talking yourself out of it, at least for the time being. Out of every antihaul video I make, I almost always end up with 1 or 2 decks eventually - but the waiting helps a LOT to make sure I REALLY want it by the time I get it and if I've anti-hauled it, I think *extra* hard about it later. ;) YES I'm talking to the creator of the Ganeshian Village Tarot behind the scenes - she's been generously sharing with me throughout the creation process so far - and it is shaping up to be SUPER cute!! :) It may be a bit for that one, but it's ADORBS. And yah i agree you may not need that AND Magical Forest - PLUS Magical Forest is mass market so you can probably still get it later if you want it. ;)
I keep taking the Mucha tarot on and off my wish list - I love the style of Mucha's art, but I can't see precisely what readings I would use the deck for other than to look at the pretty pictures lol. So for the moment... it's still off my to buy list. However, the Cirque du Tarot may have just jumped on it after seeing this video. The style reminded me of the Nicoletta Ceccioli tarot, which I still reallllly want as well.
Wow Lisa, that's a really well done video! I love these anti-hauls videos, they keep me in check 😄 Everyday Tarot is a good idea for a friend that wants to pick up tarot, so thanks for mentioning it. Not really my style, but hope she'll love it. The Harry Potter deck and the El Goliath are 2 of the decks I'm always ready to buy, but the price point of ordering them to the UK makes my head hurt. Bonfire Tarot has a really interesting design, but I'd use it during autumn, not for love readins. This is why I love tarot - sometimes we're looking at the same thing, and seeing different things. Tarot de Marseille Waite and Dame Darcy's Queen Alice are on the way, can't wait to have them and shuffle them 😊 Cursed Auguries is an amazing deck, I actually use it often in my readings. The quality is nice, has a linen finish, and the art is gorgeous. Although someone did point out that it's not good for arachnophobes. Lastly, I talked myself out of backing the White Fly kickstarter, but also out of getting Dreams of Gaia tarot. A weird combination, but hey! I guess it is a form of restraint afterall 😊
Great job talking yourself out of White Fly (I never saw that?) and Dreams of Gaia!!! Absolutely, that's restraint! OBJECTIVELY the Cursed Augeries looks REALLY well done, just isn't for me LOL And yes, the Everyday Tarot would make an excellent gift for someone newer to Tarot!
I am fighting my temptation to get the Oak, Ash and Thorn deck. I love the deck .. I love the art but I know I don't want an animal tarot deck. It wouldn't be on the top of my choice to use and I know that which makes it unjustified for me to order it. Still, not happy about it and almost kicking myself in the butt on a daily basis because I truly love it .. just know I won't use it v-v .
I haven't talked myself out of buying any decks from my wishlist, but I am forcing myself to sit and wait for a while before ordering any more! The next ones I'm thinking of are Paolo Barbieri's Unicorn Oracle and the Adorabyssal Oracle by PixelOccult, but I need to hold my horses and see if I really really want and need them 🙈🙈
Even if you don't get the Frida Khalo deck (which is fine, she was very much anticapitalism), but I would strongly recommend looking into her story, she was truly an iconic feminist and a trailblazer for both women's and LGTBQ+ rights. Her art is amazing.
So tempted to buy the Tarot of Mystical Cats but didn't....but might down the road! I'm a crazy cat lady lol/ BTW I love how you did your eye makeup in this and pretty much all your videos!
Didn’t get Heavenly Bodies Astrology deck. I have Arcana of Astrology and really don’t need two astrology decks. Love Bonefire too but it made me crazy having the card name on each card twice! Trimmed those babies and it’s SO much better! Thanks!💜
I've never really thought of trimming my bonefire.... hmmmmmmmmmmm! Good job talking yourself out of Heavenly Bodies (and it's Mass Market so you can change your mind later if you really want, most likely)
Hahahaha I gush about her in my Feb Show & Tell - but she's a Squishmallow - and I picked her up from a local grocery store from the Valentine's section (after Valentine's Day, so she was on sale for $15cad which was a steal!)
I recently talked myself out of the Painted Tarot. I loved it but the price was just too high. Its weird how my brain compensated after I talked myself out of it because now I'm not sure exactly what drew me to it and I'm happy I didn't get it. Classic anti haul psychology. Anyway thanks for the video, Lisa! I could watch an anti haul from you every day. Keep em coming!
Nice job!!! ;) You may not want to watch my next Say Yes to the Deck video... I think the Painted Tarot may be a contender LOL Glad you talkd yourself out of it!
Well I can skip the deck but I can't skip your video so we shall see how strong this anti haul psychology really is. LOL. I reserve the right to haul my anti haul.
I talked myself out of the Bonefire tarot and Sawyers Path Tarot. I let Bonefire go because I got Tarot of the Sidhe and Ethonys Modern Love Tarot. I let Sawyers path go because i realized that I don't really reach for "cartoon-esk" decks very often. I have the Happy tarot and I don't really use it. I mean, I'll likely pick both of those up eventually but I also blew my tarot budget out of the water already so I've gotta slow down.
The Drowning World nearly got me. I almost backed that with the Tarot at the End of the World bundle - I got to the page where I had to enter my card and stopped. It has an amazing Strength card, but I can’t really see myself reaching for it. It is interesting, but I don’t really see myself reading with it. I am back and forth on The Curious Travels Tarot - I May end up backing that one. My main issue with it is there is a card with an orangutan (and I feel about them like you do with spiders). But, some of the cards just feel so inspired and I adore the Fool, so I may change my mind. (I have it saved.) There was one other that tempted me but I don’t recall the name and can’t find it. It was a black and white deck, which is not ideal for me, but I think the biggest things were that the price was really high (around $100 US) and while it interested me, it didn’t interest me $100‘worth. (Like when I go shopping with my daughter, I may say something is really pretty but when I check the price I say, „Not $100 pretty“. That is basically how I felt about this deck. I don’t know that I would reach for it that much and couldn’t justify spending that when there are so many other decks I like more that are less money.
I talked myself out of getting the Faunabelle tarot and the Somnia tarot and the Roots & Wings oracle...because it would cost so much to get them shipped to Europe... Instead I just signed up to be notified when the Cirque du tarot gets released but I will wait for some walkthrough videos before I buy. I am really having a hard time resisting the witches wisom tarot though... although every time I go to buy it something stops me and I dont know why when I am so drawn to it,.... also thank you for another great video, loved the bloopers! 😄
Good job saying no to Faunabelle, Somnia and Roots & Wings... it can be tough to say no to decks that get a lot of hype, but it's great that you're keeping your budget in mind!
In regard to Bonefire Tarot, try WIld Unknown Archetypes or Flowers of the Night Oracle (although Flowers of the Night does have a very limited color palette)
what are your thoughts Lisa on Colette Baron Reid , designing of the Kali cards, and her Oracle school drama ? After hearing about it and the way Angali was treated, I am turned off. She seems to have stepped into Doreen Virtue's shoes as the creator who pops out a deck a year
Can you please do a side by side comparison of the Baby Panda against the regular size? I'd also love to see a comparison of the Roots & Wings mini against the regular size too.
There are a couple. And this has been around for a while. But everything I look at The True Black I fall in love all over again. But it is sooo large and I have tiny hands. I probably would not be able to shuffle it. But even though it has pips, I melt over it
6:48 - I actually just spat out my coffee - thank you for that.
me too Dustin, me too.
Hehehehhe you're welcome. That is my favourite edit I've ever done on any of my videos! 😂🤣😂🤣
These anti-haul videos are pretty much notorious for giving me ideas of more decks I want to buy. Today I saw 3 or 4 more to add to my wishlist! Lol.
Agreed!!🤣🙌
Not related to decks but.... your eye makeup is stunning!!!
Thank you!!! This and my AntiHaul videos are usually fun excuses to play with different makeup looks! 🥰
Lisa...your anti haul videos are so very inspiring and I now do the same comparisons with my existing decks when I look at Kickstarter. I am getting very discerning when it comes to buying new decks. I have the same opinion with the Story Medicine and Tarot of the Crone decks but I, however, did buy the Gentle Tarot and backed the special Avatara bundle of three decks in the early morning release. I won't be buying the Mother Mary/ black Madonna for the same reason. Too expensive. 😱😱Today I backed the Sacred Bee Oracle cos I love love the JOSB tarot and the Drowning World Tarot cos of the Carnival at the end of world is a special deck which has a circus themed deck lov lucy🙏💞
I am obsessed with Alice and Tarot in Wonderland ! I think this is the best Alice Tarot out there, and I also have The lucy Cavendish Alice Oracle as well !
The Brady Tarot is another really great nature/animal deck that shows the gentle AND the "darker" realities of nature. Love it
I love the artwork on the Brady. The key words kind of turned me off, but I've reconsidered - again. I think I'm going to have get this one. How is it working out for you?
@@francesrobinson1335 it's actually a deck I bought for my husband so I can't really report much unfortunately lol
I clicked so fast for this video 😂 I love your anti-hauls and say yes to the deck! Yes for the side by side comparison of the Way of the Panda Tarot! I was just looking into this deck yesterday. 😊
Good to know - I added that to my videos-to-make list!
I just got my Cosma Visions “Christmas in March” box! I can’t decide what to work with first...the oracle deck or the coins! I’m going to have to flip a coin! I have talked myself so far, out of the Oak, Ash, and Thorn deck because animal decks are not my go-to’s. But, I feel myself weakening...
Good job talking yourself out of Oak, Ash & Thorn! And hey... if animal decks aren't your thing but mythical creatures are..... you could always hold out and scoop up Smoke, Ash & Ember instead when it's out!
@@Lisa_Papez Why do deck creators torture us so?!
As a tarot newbie, I found the Everyday Tarot a non obtrusive clarification tool. Really basic. I have to agree the 3 colour palette is really stark. But using it with something like Soul Cards, it doesn't detract from Soul Card's voice.
Also it was £7, less than a couple of drinks in a pub. 🤣
Oh man, I love monochromatic decks and the simple art style of Everyday Tarot. I know a lot of people are not into that vector style art but it’s my jam 😆 Gives me a sense of order and control.... but that panda deck is so heartwarming 😆 Also your nails look great... love the color! I’m gonna check out that Frida Kahlo deck... I’ve had a connection with her and her life since I was little. She represents the Latin side of my culture and also my FIRE and PASSION! 😂 Thanks for the video.
The cursed deck would be right up my alley
Every time I watch an anti haul I end up with a longer tarot deck wishlist 😅
Is it weird I love to watch anti haul?😂😂
No, I‘m the same.
😂no! I love them too.
As I am commenting this video’s been up for about an hour and you are already amongst nearly 300 other weirdos who apparently love watching these too! 😂 They are truly some of my favorites!
@@gnomie2.0 No you're not, we love them too!!!! It helps us to what we like and not gonna buy and helps not over spend!
so NOT weird. I live for these vids!
Thank you! There is some great stuff that I havent seen before here!. I like obstacle decks like Phenomena though - they make helpful 1-3 card pulls to pinpoint obstacles or warnings/things to avoid etc
I talked myself out of the Real Sky astrology tarot because I don’t want to start looking at astrology before I finish Tarot on Earth to learn to read pips.
This has been so hard for me to learn! I need to focus on getting through one aspect of tarot before trying to learn another. I just want to learn it all at once 🤣
Sounds like you made an excellent decision - great job!
@@Lisa_Papez I got the workbook instead, and inhaled it in a week. Now I‘m making googly eyes at the deck again... siigh
Don't feel bad about the dice. It feels like you feel really bad and like you have to justify yourself. Well because of you I've found this casting system which is PERFECT for my husband who plays Dnd. We ordered it today and we're very pumped lol. And you're awesome
❤️😊 Geomancy is fantastic -- I'm still impatiently awaiting my Cosma package shipping too! I just started learning this year when I took Kelly's course (which is amazing); the Greer book is very good. Some of these decks I'd never even heard of. I'm slightly surprised you anti-hauled Gentle Tarot (but maybe only because *I* love it so much, which is ridiculous). I did back Phenomena. I missed out on both Amethyst and Idiosyncradeck so I feel like I've been waiting for a deck from her forever. I understand the 'these cards are all disruptive' take on Phenomena; I actually quite liked this if only because I feel like so often, nature is depicted as kind of "just there," not doing anything -- I like that there is so much action in the deck.
These videos have helped me immensely with deck purchasing discernment! I talked myself out of the Chakra Healing Tarot. It was gorgeous and would have loved to dig deep into chakra work but at the end of the day I couldn't justify spending that much money on a deck once shipping was added. Plus the monochromatic-ish cards threw me off, I'm so used to the current color associations with different cards/suits that the new chakra-based ones just don't work for me.
OMG that baby panda bag is so adorable!
seeing the coins reminded me of another oracle -- reading US State Quarters. there are 50 and theres a great variety in the coins.. like Montana has a cow skull, which can be the way the Death card is read. you get the idea. I have all of them somewhere in a box
I talked myself out of Chris Anne Muse tarot. I love her light seers and I love the sacred creator oracle but couldn't get into the art in the muse. I also love Barbara Moore tarot in wonderland deck. The guidebook with it is wonderful where she explains about the images and what they relate to in the Alice books
Good job talking yourself out of the Muse Tarot!
Yeah the guidebook for Barbara Moore’s Wonderland is sublime. But Alice is wearing an absolutely horrible pink apron all through which puts me off using it … 🤷🏻♂️
Gotta catch em all energy is so real lol! 💕💕💕
Always a lot of great decks, both in your collection and being anti-hauled. Thanks for sharing.
I'm on the exact same page as you with Alice decks. I haven't picked any up, but I am currently most drawn to the Dame Darcy for aesthetic and Barbara Moore for tarot accuracy. My inner child really loves the Disney version, though, and like you, I'm waiting it out!
seems like the weather phenomena deck might be useful about now. lol
The Gentle Tarot. I still really want it. I love the art work and that's what draws me to a lot of decks but I am a new tarot person and I'm not really using the decks I have. So I've hit pause on it. I might try to see if I can buy some of the art work so that I can feel the itch.
Thanks for being drawn to my work! Feel free to message me in Etsy and I'd be happy to send you a free postcard set. xxoo! Mari
@@burnandrise. That is super sweet of you!
I am also not a cat person but I own Weird Cat Tarot and I think it is wonderful and adorable and so funny. I rarely ever use it, though.
I almost backed Cosma Visions but then I kind of realized it would be almost completely lost on me especially since I don't have Prisma Visions (or the other one...?) and didn't really want it.
Oh my goodness those Geomantic Visions Coins were SO tempting...I ended up not going for them because I just know myself and tarot is really my ride-or-die and I might dabble in other divination methods but they never become huge parts of my practice.....but those coins were so PREEEEETTY 🤩🤩🤩🤩 I almost wanted them just so I could hold them in my hands 😂. Luckily the extra bonus coin that came with all the Cosma Visions pledges has scratched the “I just wanna HOLD one” itch 😆
Goooood point about the Geomantic Visions :D Also, I've been meaning to ask you - how often do you reach for your new RWS tiles??
@@Lisa_Papez looooove the RWS tiles, they live in my custom Peggybag and I use them all the time 😊💖. Is it terrible to admit that sometimes I reach for them because I’m feeling too lazy to shuffle? 😂🤦♀️
the dark woods tarot...and I still haven't TOTALLY talked myself out of it. Its just on hold for now lol
pretty much my whole life...should I? no, but maybe? no, but but but...no.no.no.
On hold is still a way better move than impulse buy, if you're trying to be more discerning!
I love Colette Baron Reid as a deck creator her decks are awesome
I feel like I’m saying no to things all the time because there are so many decks 🤣 But recently I said no to the Future Ancestor Tarot (I have Gentle Tarot and I feel like they fit the same niche) and the Oak Ash and Thorn (which broke my heart, but it’s so pricey with shipping and I backed the Tarot Renard which is all foxes so I’m worried they’ll compete too much.)
Can I list a regret buy, too? I kind of regret adding the Prisma Visions Tarot to my Cosma Visions Kickstarter package. I love the idea of Cosma and the art. I love some of the suits from Prisma, but I sort of knew when I added it on that I didn’t really love all of it. And ever since it’s arrived I’ve had no desire at all to reach for it. Something about that wands suit. I have trouble making out the images. The same with some majors. They’re just too small with the borders for me to make out the images. But I’m super excited to dive into the Cosma Visions! 🤷♀️
And I’m finding Kickstarter in general so problematic lately! I want the decks when I back them, but half the time when the decks actually arrive I’m no longer in the same headspace, and so even if I’m excited about that deck, often I don’t really want to start using it right away.
Prisma Visions was the only one I didn't add to that Superbowl of a Kickstarter...I had it a long time ago, and I just wanted to try the Light Visions...le sigh, my box is a weird one, so I wait patiently...kinda.
Great job saying no to the Future Ancestor Tarot!! I may very well regret the Prisma (and Light) Visions I added on to Cosma Visions... lol especially since I previously traded Prisma... hoping i love it this time around but I know I can trade them if I don't get on with them. ;) Also, yes, I find that with Kickstarters I really have to love it to back it now because of that very reason.
Oh! Lisa I just love your anti-haul videos! Really good food for thought. Try as I might I still make impulsive deck purchases some work out, but many don’t. I do now ask myself..... what do I already have in my deck collection that will fill that niche? This video series has helped me be more thoughtful in curating my decks as opposed to just endlessly adding on more and more. I adore Frida Kahlo and have a majorly strong connection to her and her artwork so I was all about the Tarot Avatara..... but when I really thought about it I realized I love Frida I love tarot but I don’t really need a Frida Tarot..... after much thought I realized i just wouldn’t use it. So I did not back it......
Great job talking yourself out of Tarot Avatara. I felt like that one was a hard one to say no to as it had LOTS of hype and i love the artist... so I know that must have been hard if you love Frida too!
I was so close to hitting buy on the Story Medicine, but when I heard there were going to be 4 I decided not to. It is super expensive and I feel like if I let myself get drawn down the 1st rabbit hole I'll end up down the other 3 too - and I really don't want that to happen
Great job!
Continuing to tell myself that I don’t need the Faunabelle Tarot. I have enough animal decks is my reasoning, yet my mind screams that the artwork is precious and that must have it!! 😩
I hear you.... As it is, I will probably be deciding between it and Tarot Fauna (maybe... we'll see LOL) cuz how many CUTE animal decks do i need??
@@Lisa_Papez See I already have the Tarot Fauna! .... and I still want the Faunabelle! So clearly I don’t NEED it 😬
I have a decent amount of Celtic Decks so when I was trying to decide between The Druid Plant Oracle or the Earth Wisdom Oracle Deck, think I will pass for now due to I bought three Celtic base decks within months from each other and I'll be using those first before I purchase either one of those. I have Ian Daniel's Faerie Deck which are the Welsh base Deitie Deck, the Temple of Goddess Deck which also an Welsh Tribal Deck and the Mists of Avalon Oracle deck, I also have The Shapeshifter Tarot and The Celtic Dragon Tarot, both have had since 2001 (The Celtic Dragon) and 2006 (The Shapeshifter Tarot). I didn't buy another tarot deck till about three years ago and that was the The Green Witch Tarot, which helps with not buying The Everyday Witch Tarot or even the Wizard Tarot, their similar but different and The Green Witch Tarot helps me not given in the itch to buy the other two. I have 3 Tarot decks that are coming out, that I don't havea ''theme'' for.
One is The Jack o' Lantern Tarot, cause I don't have an Halloween theme tarot deck...yet and that's coming out at the end of summer, I believe it's US Games that is bringing it out, so it's Mass produce deck. ( Thanks Dustin!)
www.Sylvia-Ritter.com - This artist is coming out with an Animal Themed Deck that is very very very different than what I've seen in walk throughs of other animal; themed tarot decks.
The 3rd Tarot Deck that I'm very excited for is The Dreamwalker Tarot www.notique.art Dark Themed but from a dreamlike out of space.
I also like The Hedgewitch Botanical Oracle, that's also on my wish list
I talked myself out of buying the Mary El tarot yesterday. I have wanted it for so long but I just don’t think I would use it! Instead I bought the Ad Orbita tarot because there’s nothing else like it in my collection and I’ve been feeling very drawn to it. Two very different decks I know!
I keep taking myself out of the Mary El like every few months 🤣 I’m just too wrapped up in learning other stuff to have the attention span for it.
YAY! Great job!
“Gotta catch ‘em all” energy is so hard for me to resist. 😂 I keep finding examples of decks I don’t really love or “need” that were created by someone whose other deck(s) I totally love. And it’s sooooo tempting. But I’m learning’ - For example, I am about ready to decide that the Urban Crow Oracle is the only MJ Cullinane deck that really resonates with me and sell the others that I own. And I love the Amethyst Oracle but sold my Idiosyncradeck because it just didn’t hit the same for me, and I think that Phenomena deck (which I backed out of FOMO) is going up for sale unopened, and I won’t be backing the new Jessica version of Idiosyncradeck because I don’t like the art as well as the original. Another example: I love Dame Darcy’s mermaid and Alice decks but will not be getting that cat/witch deck. I am a cat person but those cats scare me a bit 😂. On the flip side I got rid of the first 2 Kim Krans decks years ago, feeling I no longer connected with the imagery, but have my eye on her archetypes deck now. Gotta stay flexible and evaluate each deck on its own, right? On that note I really have to sell some on my James R Eads decks. Can I admit I only really truly love the Light Visions, and the others, while super creative, don’t resonate with me the same way?? Maybe that’s a next month project. Or summer... 😂
Yes to allll of this. I keep wanting to connect with MJ Cullinane's work - but I've brought in and traded the Wise Dog, and I'm pretty sure my MM Crow Tarot is going away eventually too. LOL I'm not sure where I'll land with James R Eads decks in the end.... I'm gonna play with em all and we'll see! I had glossy Prisma before and traded it, then I added the matte one on to my KS bundle.... along with Light Visions.... why? Who knows! So we'll see... 😂🤣
@@Lisa_Papez I already didn’t use my glossy Prisma but added on the matte version to my KS pledge because of “completism” I guess. I may now have every deck he’s made, and I really love having and using the Light Visions and the Open Portals decks. I love the artwork and feel of the Lenny deck but I don’t read with Lenormand at all. I think I don’t need Prisma Visions - in any finish - and need to sell those. I’ll try working with this new Oracle first before deciding I don’t need it. But for sure the reading cloth and coin and card stand etc. is just extra STUFF in my house right now. Arrrgh must tame the chaos! 😂 #2021goals
Oooh I was tempted by that sea themed deck that currently on indie gogo. I was drawn to the art style and that it was sea but not mermaids. But I tend not to use animal decks so I had to pass.
Oh me too! It is so pretty. Honestly, I think the fact that it was in Indiegogo and not Kickstarter made it easier for me to skip (just because I have never used Indiegogo).
I picked up a the Everyday Tarot because I wanted to use it to study with. I had such a hard time shuffling it I hosted a giveaway with it X;D The winner was excited to get it so I'm happy haha
I want to learn Lenormand and Geomancy because of Kelly X;D Hopefully I'll be able to attend his course this year, that would be great. :)
I picked up the Sacred Creators recently (and I realized half the reason is because I can't get the Spread Machine Oracle currently XD), I just filmed the walkthrough and I love how with the first cards you get the Tarot as well. Plus the watercolor was pure paint pron, all I did was erm enjoying them during filming XDD I didn't feel like too many messages were for creatives only, but that might be my view only, so of course understandable how you feel!
Haha I absolutely am lusting over the Cirque du Tarot... XD not in a rush to get it, but at some point... XD But you are right, the Joie de Vivre feels similar.
Hmm last deck I was tempted... lemme check my notes X;D (I do have notes). The Hush Tarot. I LOVE the artwork, but right now I don't need an autumn "feeling" deck because I still haven't worked with the Wild Wood.
(I might be the only one who's so picky about HP that didn't end up picking that deck... I contacted her last year so I think it would be still available.)
(What microphone do you use? Sounds so clear and nice!)
Ugh, way too long, sorry I made you read this X;D
🎉SO EXCITED FOR THIS!🎉
I did the same thing with the Cosma Visions Oracle. I added on EVERYTHING. I'm also super excited about diving into geomancy.
I’m not sure I’ve ever talked myself out of a deck I wanted. I’ve looked at plenty and decided I didn’t actually care for them, or that they’re beautiful but I can’t afford them. I think I say yes to a few too many decks.
Oh my goodness that Tarot Avatara... I cant believe I missed that kickstarter! I would love that. It's very intense. Oh I hope there are some to buy later.
Have you ever looked into the Considerate Cat Tarot by Madeleine Belanger? I'm not a cat deck person either, but it felt like such a deck of recovery and rehabilitation. It's based on the foster cats and kittens taken in by the creator and is one of my favourite comfort decks. Incredibly reassuring and gentle while still being honest and upfront
The last deck I talked myself out of is the Tarot of Mystical Moments. It's sooooo pretty, but the cards are too large for my smol hands. Or at least, that's what I keep repeating in my head! 🤣
Ok, sorry Juli, but FYI I have small hands and Tarot of the Mystical Moments is a great sideways shuffler! Just sayin’ .....
I tried talking myself out of it, did not work! I will shuffle it in a pile on the table if I must haha
Good job!!! And you an remind yourself, when you're tempted (if you're tempted) that as a Mass Market deck, it'll be around for a while if you change your mind. It's good to know what you'll use (and won't use).
@@weststartarot-Liz staaaahp! 😂 🙉
@@rochelle178 I’m hanging on by my fingernails!
I totally backed the Phenomena Oracle deck on Kickstarter. I love Jessica Bott's work and have all her decks. I had to get it. I'm wanting to work more with nature based stuff, so this deck was right up my alley. 😊💖 I feel like it could combine really well with the Amethyst Oracle, working with both decks together.
The only circus type deck I'm drawn to and want is the Alana Fairchild one
I wanted a chakra healing deck. And nearly backed the one on kickstarter. But the shipping and the tax is too much for me to justify ☹
Try living in Australia we have the worse tax prices in the world
I’m really annoyed with myself for not getting an Ember and Aura Tarot deck while I could. They’ve seemingly disappeared unless I want to drop $130 for the ONE left on Etsy... le sigh... This was a fun one, thank you!
I love the simple color palette of the everyday tarot. I find I read better when I don't see details in faces or when there are more abstract images. I don't get as distracted and I can focus on the message instead of the image itself if that makes sense. I use this deck as my "work horse" it is so cheap I have no issues taking it places and I can read any topic with it. The last deck I have said no to several times during and after the kickstarter is Oak, Ash, and Thorn. Beautiful but I have too many that fit that bill...now the dragon deck! Yes!!!! I am on that mailing list and I cannot wait.
Great job talking yourself out of Oak, Ash & Thorn!!! :D
I talked myself out of the sister deck to the Goetia tarot by Fabio Listrani. I love the Goetia, and like to complete collections, but don’t need the Angel one as I probably wouldn’t work with it.
The Linescapes Tarot. I still want it and think I would use it but shipping is $34. I just can't spend that much on shipping plus $47 on the deck. It is gorgeous though!
loved seeing this. thanks for being honest. love the postcards deck. it's so soft and would go great with the radleigh valentine angel guardian tarot.
Thanks
The one I have to continually talk myself out of is The Flux Arcana tarot. The art style is so up my alley--very gothic, pen and ink, looks like old manuscript figures as skeletons, it's so so cool. But unfortunately there's not really enough symbolism on each card for me to work with, I like a pretty full/layered artwork. But it's so cool, maybe I'll have to just buy a print from the guy someday!
Oooh excellent point! Sometimes, if we're obsessing over the artwork, we can scratch the itch with a print! Love that tip!
So far I'm trying to resist the White Numen Tarot. It seems like the Yoshi Yoshitani deck and the other animal decks I have should scratch that itch.
...I think this is the first anti-haul of yours I've watched and NOT ended up adding one of your "nos" to my list from LOL. Though I already have the Story Medicine (both, damnit) on my list, and I suspect they'd be great for me, but yeah... SO expensive. Hoping maybe I get an opportunity to trade for them.
I have a lot of Colette Baron-Reid's Decks Goddess Power Oracle, The Crystal Spirits Oracle, Mystical Shaman Oracle, and Animal Spirits and another which I can't remember. The Goddess Power Oracle was one of the first I was drawn too when I was looking at Oracle and Tarot Decks to get, there was just something about it that told me that I need to get it. The Goddess one is also the one I use the Most. The main thing I love about Colette Baron-Reid's decks are they have a lot of Self-Care in them.
I talked myself out of buying the Superlunaris Tarot and The Intuitive Night Goddess Tarot. But I still think the decks are so beautiful.// Love and light from Sweden🙏✨💖
Nice job!!!
49:17, i talked myself both in...and out... of the "Seed and Sickle" Oracle after seeing it on the Hermit's Cave. Simon strikes again. Talked myself into it because, it is stunningly beautiful vector art, would pair brilliantly with a few tarot decks that i own (like Shadowscapes or A.Castelli's Art Nouveau), and i do not have a Botanical deck yet. Then the Universe talked me out of it, because it does not even release until September! Which gives me time to study Shadowscapes and A.Castelli. One card at a time. "Decks can come into your life for a season, a reason, or a lifetime."
I don't think it's coming out until November!! I could be wrong on that but I believe that's the case so you have LOTS of time!! And I love that you're studying decks you do have in the meantime. There's no hurry, that's for sure! I find sometimes I enjoy the idea of a deck more than working with it - and that's one of the reasons I *lovvvvve* doing walkthrough videos for creators and watching others' walkthroughs... it lets me explore the idea of a deck without necessarily needing to own it. :D
@@Lisa_Papez buzz..buzz..november..okay, that's cool 'cause i just accidentally bought the Herbcrafter's Tarot! well, it was Lammas, what else is a witch to do? The book is like a little grimorie of information. #ooh.latin. and it seemed to combine perfectly with the Seed and Sickle. into the woods we go!
YES! Love it. I LOVE the Gentle Tarot but if you have the Oak, Ash and Thorn it would be sorta a duplicate. The one I recently passed on the T u l k u Oracle. It was too expensive for an Oracle.
Glad you talked yourself out of a deck that didn't fit your budget!! I'm still giving the Gentle Tarot some serious side-eye LOL
Ooh that Hudes Tarot is nice!
I regretted buying the Everyday Tarot. I'd have preferred it to be slippy as I just can't shuffle those tiny matt cards. But I still have it cause I have no other small decks and I like the flat, directional style.
cat's eye tarot is very well done!!!!🤩
Ohhhh I am so picking up the dice reading system I love Astragalomancy. Most dice reading systems use some sort of numerology or they print existing symbol systems such as Tarot or Lenormand, but this is a uniqe dice reading system. I NEEEEEEED it. :D
I nearly bought the nightmare before Xmas deck like 10 times. Now that the initial urge has passed, I’m glad I didn’t get it. I wouldn’t have used it nearly as much as my others
You have no idea how many kickstarters I’ve talked myself out of right now!
I recently talked myself out of Transient Light and Sacred Relatives. As much as I love them I just can’t spend the money right now, and indie decks are not cheap!
I deeply regret not grabbing the spread machine deck on Kickstarter by Fables Den. I know I can still get it but ughhh. Wish I took advantage back then.
On a side note would LOVE to see you do a video about “Decks I caved for” 😂 where you show us all the anti haul decks you ended up buying.
Ooooh that's a GREAT idea (to do a video on the decks I caved on) - I'll add that to my list!! -- And great job on talking yourself out of the thingssss! :)
I'm not buying some decks that seem really popular....Mystical Moments Tarot and the oracle, Dreamkeepers Tarot, Pride Tarot, Story Medicine, Avatara, etc. etc.....I say "no" alot....but I say "YES" even more! HeHe!
Great job on all the "no"'s and enjoy your Yes's!!! :D
You know what I find myself routinely reducing to buy? The Dark Moon tarot. I just can’t with it.
The first of all your anti-hauls I wanted a deck but whew 😅 it’s out of print (Amethyst Oracle).
I talked myself out of the upcoming U.S. Games release of Tarot of the Abyss by Ana Tourian - for now. It’s beautiful and interesting being black and white, but doesn’t appear to have the level of symbolism I prefer to work with. BUT if I see a walkthrough with some incredible nuanced meanings to the archetypes, I do reserve the right to change my mind!
Lisa, as always, I was captivated by this anti-haul. I'm hoping the Tarot de Marsaille Waite to come back in to print. I know that Peggy makes you bags and cloths. I have a Tarot Group that I host once a month. I'm about to do a meeting titled "Tarotphenalia" (specifically: Tarot Accessories). I'm wondering if you might consider doing a youtube on Tarot Accessories? Thanks. -Kim
Hey, the tarot de Marseille-Waite has been put back into print since the solding out a few monts ago. I messaged the editor personnaly. It was suposed to be back in stock around end Feb, but with Covid it is taking longer than expected. No worries, stay patient =)
@@celiaaissani1960 Thank you for your response. I'll keep a weather eye out.
I don't know when I'll get to it but I've added that to my video list!!! :D
I love Jessica Bot's artwork. I missed out on the Idiosyncradeck and the Amethyst oracle which is very depressing. I did get her botanical deck just because I love her artwork so much. I just missed the kickstarter for the Phenomena deck but I will probably pick it up
I see you know about it 😂😂😂 I wanted to back Jessica Bot's new deck but I missed it but I will definitely buy it. I have the Botanical Deck and I love it. I love her art work.
Hi Lisa, first of all I wanna say that you look georgeous in this video😉👍☺ ! I decided not to buy the Monstarot although I love the art and it's been on my wishlist for so long . The reason is that I recently fell in love with The Wild Wolf Tarot by Briöna Jolie which I've preordered on etsy. The wolf is my Animal Totem and I've been looking for a wolf tarot for a very long time. I already own the Wolf Pack Tarot Deck by Robert Petro which actually is an Oracle Deck and I love it so much.
Maybe the Monstarot will find it's way to me one day but for now I know that I will reach for The Wild Wolf Tarot🐺❤
YAY good job talking yourself out of the Monstarot and reaching instead for your Wolf Pack Tarot/Oracle! And thank you for the compliment! 🥰
@@Lisa_Papez You're very welcome😉
I talked myself out of The Keymaster Tarot. It is gorgeoussss and grand in a way that it will be a classic forever, but in the end that powerful energy belongs in someone else's hands. It intimidates me in a way that I know isn't putting me in a reading place.
Nice JOB! I almost bought that deck just for the fancy box and then talked some sense into myself.
Hi Lisa, loving the eye shadow today! 👀💕🤗
Oh thank you! 🥰
@@Lisa_Papez Ur so welcome! 😆
I ended up backing The Phenomena oracle deck maybe an hour or two before the kickstarter ended. I'm sort of fascinated by the weather though, in awe of it even. Was getting all sorts of different vibes from the cards! I can see what you mean though! I missed out on the Amethyst Oracle though, it looks great
The Pagan Cat tarot is awesome. And you can get a tiny version.
I talked myself out of Oak Ash and Thorn, I have more than one animal deck already, and while I really like that deck, I feel like I'm good in that department. I also talked myself out of the Dark Mansion tarot because again I have a couple decks that scratch that itch. But I really wanted it.
I talked myself out of getting the 2nd edition of the Star Tarot by Cathy McClelland, because I didn't want to pay over $30 for a mass market deck. So far I haven't changed my mind, but... yeah, I still really WANT IT! 😁
I always enjoy your videos so much, thanks 😊 i saw someone else mention it and i thought i mention it as well, about the sacred creators, if you haven’t seen a walk through you might want to look at the deck more in depth, i think you might enjoy it a lot. I dont see it as a deck about creativity or for creatives, its more about creating you life, i see it as guidance from the universe. I just think its a great deck for anyone that is on a self discovery journey. But that is just my opinion and i know we all resonate with different things and see things from different points of view but just in case you wanted to give it another look. 🌸✨💕
Uh oh... I may need to take a second look.......
I was extremely lucky with scoring the oracle by Gabby by someone backing out of their pledge I like yourself was loving on it 💜
OMG That's awesome! Congrats!!!
I talked myself out of backing Yokai Yochi. World cultures is a red thread in my collection... but Japan is not my main area of interest. I was like, but now I have an opportunity to learn about Japanese folklore from the lwb. And then I was like, but I could just read about it from an actual Japanese folklore book. Didn't back by deadline and haven't thought about the deck since. That's not saying I would never get it once it's out and I see the actual final deck.
Recently someone shared the supercute Ganershian Village tarot in your FB page. It's now at the top of my list together with the Magical Forest. The rational part of my brain is thinking one of these would be enough because GV is basically MF exclusively with little chubby Ganeshas. But one is a limited edition indie (and India is my main area of interest), while the other one is a much loved classic that doesn't cost very much anyway. So...
Ooooh nice job on talking yourself out of it, at least for the time being. Out of every antihaul video I make, I almost always end up with 1 or 2 decks eventually - but the waiting helps a LOT to make sure I REALLY want it by the time I get it and if I've anti-hauled it, I think *extra* hard about it later. ;) YES I'm talking to the creator of the Ganeshian Village Tarot behind the scenes - she's been generously sharing with me throughout the creation process so far - and it is shaping up to be SUPER cute!! :) It may be a bit for that one, but it's ADORBS. And yah i agree you may not need that AND Magical Forest - PLUS Magical Forest is mass market so you can probably still get it later if you want it. ;)
@@Lisa_Papez Nooo, don't say that! I want them both! LOLOL
I keep taking the Mucha tarot on and off my wish list - I love the style of Mucha's art, but I can't see precisely what readings I would use the deck for other than to look at the pretty pictures lol. So for the moment... it's still off my to buy list. However, the Cirque du Tarot may have just jumped on it after seeing this video. The style reminded me of the Nicoletta Ceccioli tarot, which I still reallllly want as well.
Wow Lisa, that's a really well done video! I love these anti-hauls videos, they keep me in check 😄
Everyday Tarot is a good idea for a friend that wants to pick up tarot, so thanks for mentioning it. Not really my style, but hope she'll love it.
The Harry Potter deck and the El Goliath are 2 of the decks I'm always ready to buy, but the price point of ordering them to the UK makes my head hurt.
Bonfire Tarot has a really interesting design, but I'd use it during autumn, not for love readins. This is why I love tarot - sometimes we're looking at the same thing, and seeing different things.
Tarot de Marseille Waite and Dame Darcy's Queen Alice are on the way, can't wait to have them and shuffle them 😊
Cursed Auguries is an amazing deck, I actually use it often in my readings. The quality is nice, has a linen finish, and the art is gorgeous. Although someone did point out that it's not good for arachnophobes.
Lastly, I talked myself out of backing the White Fly kickstarter, but also out of getting Dreams of Gaia tarot. A weird combination, but hey! I guess it is a form of restraint afterall 😊
Great job talking yourself out of White Fly (I never saw that?) and Dreams of Gaia!!! Absolutely, that's restraint! OBJECTIVELY the Cursed Augeries looks REALLY well done, just isn't for me LOL
And yes, the Everyday Tarot would make an excellent gift for someone newer to Tarot!
I am fighting my temptation to get the Oak, Ash and Thorn deck. I love the deck .. I love the art but I know I don't want an animal tarot deck. It wouldn't be on the top of my choice to use and I know that which makes it unjustified for me to order it. Still, not happy about it and almost kicking myself in the butt on a daily basis because I truly love it .. just know I won't use it v-v .
regrets= morgan greer, madame dame's, midnight sun, tattoo tarot, mystical manga, necromicon
I haven't talked myself out of buying any decks from my wishlist, but I am forcing myself to sit and wait for a while before ordering any more! The next ones I'm thinking of are Paolo Barbieri's Unicorn Oracle and the Adorabyssal Oracle by PixelOccult, but I need to hold my horses and see if I really really want and need them 🙈🙈
YAY Glad to hear you're waiting a bit before pulling the trigger on that purchase! Sometimes waiting helps a LOT!
Even if you don't get the Frida Khalo deck (which is fine, she was very much anticapitalism), but I would strongly recommend looking into her story, she was truly an iconic feminist and a trailblazer for both women's and LGTBQ+ rights. Her art is amazing.
So tempted to buy the Tarot of Mystical Cats but didn't....but might down the road! I'm a crazy cat lady lol/ BTW I love how you did your eye makeup in this and pretty much all your videos!
Didn’t get Heavenly Bodies Astrology deck. I have Arcana of Astrology and really don’t need two astrology decks. Love Bonefire too but it made me crazy having the card name on each card twice! Trimmed those babies and it’s SO much better! Thanks!💜
I've never really thought of trimming my bonefire.... hmmmmmmmmmmm! Good job talking yourself out of Heavenly Bodies (and it's Mass Market so you can change your mind later if you really want, most likely)
Okay I CAN'T. I HAVE to ask... where did you get the big plushie behind you?!😍😭🧡
Hahahaha I gush about her in my Feb Show & Tell - but she's a Squishmallow - and I picked her up from a local grocery store from the Valentine's section (after Valentine's Day, so she was on sale for $15cad which was a steal!)
I recently talked myself out of the Painted Tarot. I loved it but the price was just too high. Its weird how my brain compensated after I talked myself out of it because now I'm not sure exactly what drew me to it and I'm happy I didn't get it. Classic anti haul psychology. Anyway thanks for the video, Lisa! I could watch an anti haul from you every day. Keep em coming!
Nice job!!! ;) You may not want to watch my next Say Yes to the Deck video... I think the Painted Tarot may be a contender LOL Glad you talkd yourself out of it!
Well I can skip the deck but I can't skip your video so we shall see how strong this anti haul psychology really is. LOL. I reserve the right to haul my anti haul.
I talked myself out of the Bonefire tarot and Sawyers Path Tarot. I let Bonefire go because I got Tarot of the Sidhe and Ethonys Modern Love Tarot. I let Sawyers path go because i realized that I don't really reach for "cartoon-esk" decks very often. I have the Happy tarot and I don't really use it. I mean, I'll likely pick both of those up eventually but I also blew my tarot budget out of the water already so I've gotta slow down.
Nice job trimming things down!
The Drowning World nearly got me. I almost backed that with the Tarot at the End of the World bundle - I got to the page where I had to enter my card and stopped. It has an amazing Strength card, but I can’t really see myself reaching for it. It is interesting, but I don’t really see myself reading with it.
I am back and forth on The Curious Travels Tarot - I May end up backing that one. My main issue with it is there is a card with an orangutan (and I feel about them like you do with spiders). But, some of the cards just feel so inspired and I adore the Fool, so I may change my mind. (I have it saved.)
There was one other that tempted me but I don’t recall the name and can’t find it. It was a black and white deck, which is not ideal for me, but I think the biggest things were that the price was really high (around $100 US) and while it interested me, it didn’t interest me $100‘worth. (Like when I go shopping with my daughter, I may say something is really pretty but when I check the price I say, „Not $100 pretty“. That is basically how I felt about this deck. I don’t know that I would reach for it that much and couldn’t justify spending that when there are so many other decks I like more that are less money.
I folded on Curious Travels and backed it. 😂😂
But you stayed strong with the Drowning World, right? Still a success!
The mermaid tarot and the wonderland tarot, i said no 2. ❤️❤️❤️
Well done!!!
@@Lisa_Papez 😁
I talked myself out of getting the Faunabelle tarot and the Somnia tarot and the Roots & Wings oracle...because it would cost so much to get them shipped to Europe...
Instead I just signed up to be notified when the Cirque du tarot gets released but I will wait for some walkthrough videos before I buy. I am really having a hard time resisting the witches wisom tarot though... although every time I go to buy it something stops me and I dont know why when I am so drawn to it,....
also thank you for another great video, loved the bloopers! 😄
Good job saying no to Faunabelle, Somnia and Roots & Wings... it can be tough to say no to decks that get a lot of hype, but it's great that you're keeping your budget in mind!
I have a spell deck thing in the same packaging as the mini everyday tarot deck and I struggle with the plastic part to get it open.
In regard to Bonefire Tarot, try WIld Unknown Archetypes or Flowers of the Night Oracle (although Flowers of the Night does have a very limited color palette)
OH! I have the Wild Unknown Archetypes and that probably WOULD play beautifully with Bonefire. Really appreciate the tip!
what are your thoughts Lisa on Colette Baron Reid , designing of the Kali cards, and her Oracle school drama ? After hearing about it and the way Angali was treated, I am turned off. She seems to have stepped into Doreen Virtue's shoes as the creator who pops out a deck a year
Can you please do a side by side comparison of the Baby Panda against the regular size? I'd also love to see a comparison of the Roots & Wings mini against the regular size too.
I'll add the Panda/Baby Panda comparison to my list!! :) Thanks for letting me know you want to see it! I don't have the mini Roots & Wings, though.
There are a couple. And this has been around for a while. But everything I look at The True Black I fall in love all over again. But it is sooo large and I have tiny hands. I probably would not be able to shuffle it. But even though it has pips, I melt over it
But it's goood that if you don't think yo'll be able to use it that you're holding off!
