Dark Goddess Oracle Cards
J**E
To the point Goddess energy
The cards came well packaged and quickly. Now thats the boring bit over...This is my first deck by the authors (Ive had many decks in my time)The design of the and illustration on the cards are wonderfully striking. They give weight to the reading. Ive completed a few readings with this deck using the suggested spread. And wow.The messages are very direct and theres no messing with these ladies. Everything is laid out in front of you and I really appreciate the lack of fluffyness in these cards.You have to be ready to use these cards. If your hero is Doreen Virtue these may not be for you. That being said they may be a compliment to her Goddess Oracle deck (I went off Doreen a few years back before all the recent fuss)Overall this is an accomplished deck that even readers who only use tarot would appreciate.If you're a pagan or witch these would do you good in your daily practice.Im so pleased with this purchase. Its my new favourite deckI will be buying more decks by the authors.

A Beautiful and Helpful Deck
I’ve been an explorer in the world of divination for a fair few years now, with my favourite Tarot decks usually nearby at home, as well as Norse Runes and Celtic Ogham. I’ve had a bit of a hit-or-miss relationship with ‘Oracle Cards’ in the past, though, as they sometimes seeem a bit random or difficult to connect with. So when I was asked to take a look at this deck, while I trust the creators as friends, I was a little nervous. Nobody likes to give a bad review!I needn’t have worried. These beautiful cards seemed to jump out at me as I ‘tested’ them, pulling cards here and there for willing friends to see how well they ‘worked’.Now the thing to remember with divination sets is that when I say ‘worked’, I don’t mean empirically: turn light-switch = bulb brightens, for example. I mean that the cards resonate with both seer and querent, connecting as required to provide effective and useful guidance.This is most easily measured in the response to the image on the card – often a gasp, as relevance is immediately found (rather than ‘Well, I don’t understand that.’)These cards hit the mark every time, without exception. That’s rare.The images are lovely. Not necessarily all depicting each Lady as I’ve encountered Her, but you can certainly see the relevance – and how difficult is it to photograph a Goddess and capture every aspect of Her?!Barbara and Flavia have used their considerable experience to create images to help inspire deep thoughts in those using the cards. Each also has a key word on the front… which I confess, I didn’t actually notice initially, as I was so caught up in all of the drama in each picture! I’ve found that my own experiences of each Lady has helped understand the connection for those coming to me with questions; the keyword is useful, but as it’s hard to capture a full image with every meaning of each Goddess, so one word can never do Her justice. The words are a useful guide, however, as is the handy and thoughtful book which is included in the pack.I would say that this deck works at the level appropriate for the user. They may just be pretty pictures, with a word to help; or the images may spark something much deeper. It’s not simply about the figure, after all, but what’s going on within the picture, in context of you asking for aid or guidance.I look forward to continue using this cards in the future, as and when they call to me. Although my main complaint is simply that Barbara and Flavia haven’t included themselves in the imagery! Two beautiful and clever witches who definitely deserve to be visited if you ever get the chance, either at events around the UK or at their shop, Arnemetia‘s in Buxton, Derbyshire.

Far too negative
These cards are so negative! I used them in a group situation and some people were really upset with what they were saying, not good for anyone with any kind of mental health issues like depression or anxiety, or even just a bit of a down mood or self esteem wobbles. I’m all for looking to the misunderstood goddesses that have been (wrongly) portrayed as negative over time, but these cards actually reinforce the negative stereotypes rather than looking at their true nature and positive aspects. They’re languishing on a shelf gathering dust now.

Now I have never been a love and light kind of witch and have always been ...
Now I have never been a love and light kind of witch and have always been happy to embrace the darker side, blood, tooth and claw are just as relevant as love and light, you can't cure if you can't curse blar blar blar LOL. It is also about knowing who you are in all your aspects. So when these oracle cards by Flavia Kate Peters and Barbara Meiklejohn-Free popped up on my news feed I was intriguedThey arrived this morning and I have yet to use them in any serious way BUT wow, they have a kind of dark almost steam punk flavour to them which appeals greatly.I have had a little play and I do believe these will fast become one of my go to decks of cards.I guess if I had one slight criticism it would be that they could be even darker but that remains to be seen as I get to use them. Very very pleased with them not been so excited about a new oracle deck in a long time. THANK YOU both very much for creating something a bit special,

Beautifully illustrated, honest approach to oracle readings
I bought these cards to help me with my shadow work and was not disappointed, although named Dark Goddess oricals they do have positive messages, although they take a more honedt approach to your soul needs and egoIf you are ready to be perfectly honest with yourself these cards are for you, and really the best way to heal is to face up and accept your shadow self.I would definitely recommend to anyone who is ready to have the truth about themselves and find answers to guide you to the light.Beautifully illustrated and perfectly written.
