My Review
This deck is glossy, which makes the cards slide easily when shuffling, but I did find it slightly unruly when shuffling in term of the size of the cards (3×5 inches). I’ve been reading with various decks from Black & The Moon, which are all 2.75 x 4.75 inches.
Other than being slightly longer, though, they are easy to shuffle (maybe I just have small hands!).
The rigid box is matte and so pretty! I love the interior illustrations!
One matches the backs of the cards, and the other is the same image on the Belladonna card included in the deck.
Featured in the 50-card deck are various magical tools, plants & herbs, and witchy aesthetics to inspire you in your magickal workings.
There are 3 main guides, including the Green Witch, the Hedge Witch and the Kitchen Witch, as well as the Lady of the Woods and the Lady of the Herbs.
With such gorgeous illustrations, it’s hard to pick as favorite card. I really love the ones that feel as though you’ve stepped directly into the lives of the resident witches, taking a peek into their study, their ritual spaces, and their private exploration of the magical world around them.
I highly recommend this deck to those with a love of the dark and Gothic, to kitchen and hedge witches, and to those who love a deck with a dark fantasy vibe.
