5.0 out of 5 stars Spiritual insights and outstandingly beautiful art!, October 31, 2003

I`m a Tarot reader and deck collector. I used the The Oracle of The Goddess for attuning my own energies and to see how the energies of my feminine customers are going. The Oracle of The Goddess has a beautiful and practical package, you can keep the cards and the book in the same box. The box opens in the middle and has two separate sections, one for the beautiful book and the other for the cards. You tie the two halves of the case together with the silk ribbon attached to the box. You will never need another box to place your cards, and the look is like a little beautiful treasure you can place on any table. It is outstandingly beautiful! The book is all in color with complete card images, it is a delicate work of art, first-class (excellent) art design and colors. I can only remember one other book that comes with a deck as beautiful as this. That is The Enchanted Tarot, which comes with a book as well made as this and is, of course, also made by Monte Farber and Amy Zerner.

The cards are big, with beautifully designed fabric collage tapestry portraits of the head, heart, and body of the twelve goddesses. Each card has a Title, Key Phrase and Affirmation. It is supposed to be used with a 3 card spread in order to see the energy atunement, head(violet border), heart(red), home(turquoise), but you can be creative and used it in other ways. The book includes some history about the goddesses, affirmations, secrets and rituals for each card. This a great gift for any woman, young or not so young. It is also a great tool for tarot readers or energy workers. It is a good price for a beautiful piece of art!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring and Informative, March 17, 2004

This review is from: The Oracle of The Goddess (Hardcover)

As a professional reader, I use several decks during a single session with a client, and the Oracle of the Goddess is definitely one of them. It's visually striking, and the cards could not be simpler to use. I've found that it appeals to both men and women thanks to the insightful interpretations and wonderful artwork that is a trademark of this talented couple. Each goddess has a unique energy about her and the authors have thoughtfully provided the appropriate symbolic correspondences if one wishes to work more personally with that energy. I would not do a reading without it, and I highly recommend it to anyone, regardless of experience level.

5.0 out of 5 stars great package, recommend to all, February 20, 1999

This review is from: The Oracle of The Goddess (Hardcover)

I recently bought this book and cards set and think that it is absolutely wonderful. It introduces the possibility of the Great Creator being a woman, and how women were taught through evolution that men were gods to be served and revered. Included in the set is a book that explains how to use the 36 colorful cards picturing the 12 Goddesses to answer questions to the Goddess after meditation. Wonderful book, and I would definitely reccomend it to people in search of new religions or just a good time.
