Anti-haul #8 | Decks I'm not gonna buy, decks I regret purchasing, Kickstarters I didn't back

I agree with you on the Radiant Wise Spirit. Even though I LOVE its moody coloring, the line work is heavy and the stock too glossy, but there's one card that drives me CRAZY! The 6 of Pentacles has a broken string on its scales (forever changing for me the meaning of the card) How hard would it have been to correct that little printing error? For clarity of line work and dramatic coloring, I highly recommend the RWS 2.0 from MPC. I have issues with the Vlad deck too. Whereas I don't have issues with fictional depictions of vampires, Vlad the impaler was a historic figure whose human brutality is infamousy incomparable. I don't think I need that kind of energy in my collection. It's like acquiring a Nazi deck. Just a hard no from me.

How about...Allister Crowley (dark) and rider waite (light)

Yesterday I was thinking on decks I could use for Light and Shadow readings and I found that The Vivid Journey Tarot pairs great with the darker comic book style of the Justice League Tarot

I like these videos. The really make me think twice about buying a deck. I now check to see If I have decks that can fulfill the need that I think I have.

Im anti hauling everything on this list but two things... gold star if you can guess which! (one should be easy!)

I can't get past the paint drops on Mystic Masters..if it wasn't for that i would have gotten it

Journey of the Sacred Bee is sooo good and beautiful..i laughed because I just got it and the Medieval Tarot..😉😅

Great video as usual! I love the thought you give each deck, makes me also be extra thoughtful about my purchases

Always love your anti-hauls! I'm waiting on the Villains deck as well, I want to see all the cards first. I'd totally love a Disney Beauty and the Beast one! 🙂 Thank you for sharing! ❤️

I have the scratch deck! Need to finish scratching them off.
I got them on Amazon for $5.

I really like the mini spirit wise tarot. It is not a glittering one but has the same colors. What I like about 8t is when I do real big spreads. The cards are small enough to enter the entire table but not too small so it makes it hard to shuffle like the mini classic tarot...

The Journey of the Sacred Bee is an amazing deck, one of my top 5 favorites.. it's beautiful, smart, deep (I would not call this cute), and reads amazing (for self and others). There is no other deck out there with the same powerful energy and presence, in my opinion.

I love love love Journey of the Sacred Bee !!!! And I do reach for and use it. 🥰🐝🇨🇦

What do you do when you buy a deck and when you get it , it feels evil?
I bought the occult tarot and I made a mistake, I thought I was buying the deck of the "good angles" and I actually bought the one of the " evil angels " and the actual pictures on the cards are of monsters and it felt evil. Since I've had it believe it or not but many things in my life started going wrong . I actually completely forgot I had it. But after things started going wrong, what brought me to a suicide attempt and a hospital bed, I found it in one of my boxes.
Now I don't know what to do with it. I actually thought of burning it or my burying it. What do you do when things like that happen to you?

You have such a great presence. It's like listening to a good friend talk about tarot.

....okay now I'm gonna do a Lightseers/Deviant Moon pairing! Another one I'd be tempted to try pairing like that would be Tarot in Space (light) with Tarot of the Silicon Dawn (shadow). Kind of niche, but they both have this scifi / space feel from very different directions. Or ooh, maybe Sasuraibito paired with Raven's Prophecy. I'm not sure why my brain wants those together, and Sasuraibito is pretty balanced, but for some reason those two jumped up.

That was the same reason I ended up deciding against a color your own tarot book. And after watching a video about the scratch off cards I decided no too. The act of scratching them leaves marks on the face of the card and they are easy to damage too. Great idea but too much work and risk.

I love The Affirmat ors Tarot. Thanks for featuring.

A deck I personally enjoy using for love reads is the Women of Science deck. Not only does it fill my appreciation for women (as an AFAB NB) but it’s got nice art, it’s got WOMEN SCIENTISTS INCLUDING WOMEN OF COLOR WHO MAY HAVE BEEN IGNORED BY MANY, the booklet tells you about their contributions to science, it’s got a nice symmetrical pink backing that’s good for reversal reading, and I personally find the card stock very nice. It might not be the best quality but out of my 6 decks it’s the 2nd easiest to shuffle. (My fav is the White Sage tarot which works better on my small hands as it’s pocket size and I’ve also had it longest so I connect with it)
So yeah maybe not too relevant but maybe some of y’all would consider either of the two decks I mentioned :) white sage also includes chakra readings, a good backing for reversal readings, a beautiful watercolor illustration scheme, and animals as the major arcana!

I loveeeeeeeeee this series. I had the same issue as you on the Radiant Wise Spirit so I'm glad to hear it. Still wanting the Mystic Masters Tarot but not super sure yet hahaahha.

I really agree with you on the Radiant Wise Spirit tarot. Why is it so glossy? Ugh. I am doing a Depth Year and Low-Buy year in 2021, and it's SO HARD to avoid buying all the pretty shiny things I want, but videos like this help.

I want to make my own tarot deck someday. One of my bucket list.

Love the idea of the light seers with the deviant moon...I’ve never wanted the deviant moon till you said that!

As I continue to pare down my deck wishlist, this is exactly my type of video; will definitely be watching more of your anti-hauls! I enjoy many decks that I don’t absolutely need in others’ readings on IG. I’m also curious about Disney Villains but have the same concern regarding pips.

As an Astrologer, I love both Astrosoul and Living Wheel.

Hi Lisa. Great job.

I am on the fence with Journey of the Sacred Bee! I feel like it would be a nice deck to work with when I want to focus on Earth and Air energies, but I'm with you on not being the biggest bee fan. They're cool, but I'm fairly indifferent.

I just bought my arcana astrology in winners

Deviant Moon + Guardian Angel would be good light&shadow if it didn’t give you emotional whiplash. 😄

The bee deck I would get

I want the Dracula deck

I did not realize until now that I needed a Lilo & Stitch tarot deck. Thank you for making me aware of this new need I suddenly have.

I'm cracking up at the giant RWS and I am so curious how much does it weigh??

I hate to tell you, but you actually do need both Seeds of Shakti and Morning Calm….. they are totally different, nothing alike. Oh, shoot, right, this is an anti-hail.
And please please pleas DO NOT round the corners of your RMP Vampire deck…. They are supposed to be pointy because they kind of bite your fingers like a vampire….. it’s part of the beauty of this deck IMO

I hate pip decks, I agree about the coloring decks, I'm picky about my decks too! 😆

You should review the Disney villains tarot

I think I agree about the light/shadow spread that I could make what I already have work. Without actually working with Tarot of Light and Shadow, I wouldn't be convinced it would even have the same punch as my favorite shadow decks, and I really like having brutally honest shadow decks. Tarot in Darkness is my number one most brutal shadow deck, but I don't think it would pair well in a spread with the light decks I have. I'd probably do Sacred Light Oracle paired with one of my many Alana Fairchild Oracles, as those work well for shadow work, are roughly the same size, and the art shouldn't clash too bad.

Sacred Bee Tarot and Oracle decks are one of the very few indy decks I've been willing to spend the extra money to get, and I'm so glad I did. The cardstock is everything, the art is everything, and I do really love bees even though I'm highly allergic. I can certainly understand not connecting to those decks without having an interest in bees though. Being able to identify which bees are drones, workers, and queens is a layer of symbolism that you would totally miss out on if you don't know how.

Notes from the Universe would be good for someone doing pick a card readings, or if you were doing live readings for a client and they could just chose rhw affirmation they wanted and the. You could read them their message. (Something like that)

The radiant wise would look so good if it were matte and soft and actually looked and felt aged. I think I'd rather just get the oldest second hand rws I could find 🥰 something nice and worn down.

What makes it appeal to me is the way it looks aged... so why then make it glossy? Ugg.

Oh gosh... I was sure I needed the crow tarot and I really don't use it. I love the lwb for it, though. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I need to check out the medevial Europe one though!!

I have the nightmare before Christmas deck and I'm thinking of getting a metalic pen, and putting some keywords on the pip cards.

I want the bohemian Gothic 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Ohhh the wandering star 🌟

I really need to get the sassy B.

Tbh... I'm feeling like I have "enough" or "too many" but there are so many decks I *really* want like the sassy b and the herbcrafters. Mosty older decks. (Wish I could have like every baba studios deck lol)

Rider-WAITE-smith's are over-rated; I'm looking forward to an Arthur Edward Waite ONLY tarot deck!!!!!
