- Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2024Very simple yet powerful messages for the shadow-working individual! :) a great simple addition to your collection of shadow work decks, great quality. no problems using this deck. This deck goes deep in the subtle attitudes and beliefs we unconsciously take on, therefore you become more aware of whats actually bothering you - especially if you cant find the words to describe your emotions! If you want longer card meanings then perhaps by a another deck.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2021This deck is in several different languages. The author is Italian. I'm going to take a wild guess his first language isn't English. Those saying the guide book doesn't make sense aren't taking the time to think for a minute or two. Some of the sentences are a bit odd, yes, but they do come together if you think about it for a second!
And the messages are deep if you're willing to dive in. I've literally pulled one card from this deck so far and the message blew me away, personally. I've been thinking about it for days, pondering on it.
I'm honestly impressed that the english is as good as it is, given how many languages the deck is in. It would be nice if a native English speaker had done an edit but, if you can set aside your need for everything to be perfect when you can find amazing messages in this deck.
I've looked through the cards individually and they're all beautiful. The dark artwork doesn't mean the messages are dark. I really feel this deck was made to shine light onto our darkness so that we can grow. I love it.
The cardstock isn't the highest quality, but it's very easy to shuffle and feels nice in my hands. The box has an awesome little ribbon to pull the cards and book out. It's a nice deck. Treat it well and look past your own language prejudices and you'll find it has a lot to teach you.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2020I am so conflicted by these cards. They are deeply shadow aspect. I'm continuously doing shadow work so these have helped me gain deep insights into myself and where I need to do my work.
The material is very nice, it's fairly easy to shuffle and the box is a nice storage.
I hope you read other languages. The author is obviously not English speaking and the book doesn't really help provide much of any insight into interpretation. They certainly challenge my intuitive reading ability and make me connect more to myself due to this. I wish the creator/author/translator were able to properly translate the true intention of the cards to American English consumers.
Overall, I highly suggest these cards for shadow work if you are ready. Make sure you are truly ready to face the darkest parts of your shadow. They are no joke and when you see what Spirit is trying to show you about yourself, you may go through an array of emotions that may not help. But they are necessary to feel in order to heal the shadow parts.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2020Received today as a gift to my self. Approach with love and honesty.. A change from my usuals. Very light to handle considering the title. Easy to understand.. several languages , the art work is very unique ,clean and mysterious.. . I like the moon phases included on each card . One word Stage meaning followed by other messages and explanation of a card. shuffles nice! ( matte finish.) with little gloss. Good for Beginners Shadow Work easy to understand & learn some Truths when in those dark places we All SOMETIMES HIDE.. Therapeutic, Educational not so dark just FACING FACTS n Truth. You’ll appreciate them when you hold each card.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2020This is what you use when you're doing some Shadow work on yourself this is my first Shadow work Oracle deck that I've ever gotten so here's my honest review. The cards were a little thin then I expected so you really have to take good care of them because they all can rip and tear easily in. I must say What drew me in to buying this was the artwork I love how dark the artwork is. the book is somewhat helpful it has it in multiple language I kind of wish that it was a longer explanation of the card meanings. It kind of explains it to you in a riddle or like a poem that you have to interpret so it kind of gives you the opportunity to interpret it in your own way you got to kind of figure it out for yourself. Queen of my world is my favorite card out of the whole deck!
I use these cards to receive messages from my shadow self and I have also Incorporated it in my readings videos. So if you're ready to get down and dirty with your shadow-self I would say to give this deck a try and make the best of it.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2019Excellent for Shadow work and exploring the less appealing aspects of the human self. If you're sensitive to 'dark' images such as insects, death, darkness, pain, blood, etc, and general 'horror-looking' cards, I recommend looking for something else as these may trigger you if you don't have proper coping mechanisms or at the very least to not use these alone. I plan on using them this Samhain sabbat for divination to help with the theme of death & rebirth. I should note I keep them in a separate box than my other tarot card collection because of its strong association with the shadow work and heavy emotional energy. And I also suggest to cleanse them before and after use.
The cards are a good size and easy for me to shuffle. Good quality and the booklet is helpful but not too illustrative which I prefer.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2023Artwork, amazing totally resonated with deck. Easy to shuffle very well-made card stock. I love when publishers do not go cheap. Very nice deck guidebook very helpful. My clients love it.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2020This deck is INTENSE! Upon receiving it I did three readings— one for myself and two for friends. It was brutally (in a good way!) spot-on for all three. I’ve been looking for a deck like this and am so glad I took a chance. I don’t normally like decks with this kind of aesthetic (I’m more into animals/nature decks), but this is perfect for shadow work/getting answers to questions you’re prepared to go really deep on. The cards are also decent quality although I honestly barely remember the look/feel since the readings were so dramatically powerful.

Espelho escuro: que personalidade eu criei para viver? Porque não aceito olhar o meu lado sombra e amar todas as partes minhas? Me tranquei e nego a minha força, sou uma Rainha do nada? As cartas trazem uma energia de autoaceitação, para me curar e evoluir eu preciso me reconhecer no espelho da alma. Adorei e recomendo como evolução pessoal.

IshtarReviewed in Canada on April 14, 20235.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Shadow Work
It’s hard to find cards without White Light undertones. Despite a few English language issues, these are quite good for those walking the Dark Path or LHP and wanting depth without sacrificing to the point of needing to ignore White Light ideas.
