Customer Reviews

Not what I ordered

No Cards It Said With Cards Book Is Useless Without Cards

Where are the cards!!? So disappointing.....

The description clearly says book AND cards. Yet no cards were sent.

Book ONLY

I only received the book. No cards. Very disappointed.

Cards were missing

I was only sent part of the order. The cards were missing

gorgeous art, fabulous research

Hrana Janto's artwork is stunning-- women of all shapes, sizes, ages and colors grace the cards, representing goddesses from an amazingly large amount of world cultures. I have an art print of my favorite goddess-- Isis-- on one of my walls, and wish I had more. The colors are vivid and the research that went into each card, the symbols that the cards contain and the representations of all the archetypes-- show strong committment to the goddess stories. This is a deck of cards that you feel good about owning, because you feel somehow connected to all these fabulous women.

Most useful tool I own

I tend to be a junkie for various metaphysical decks -- tarot cards, medicine cards, rune cards, etc. -- but the Goddess Oracle is the one I use the most because it's the most helpful and effective. It always sheds light on whatever my problem is and gives greater insight. The correspondences between the goddesses shown and the meanings are wonderful and Marashinsky's research, respect and love for the topic shine through. Janto's art is the perfect compliment. She has created some of the most beautiful depictions of goddesses I've ever seen. Everyone I've ever introduced to the Goddess Oracle has been blown away by it and soon after bought their own. That should say something.

Beautiful Artwork, Spiritualy Rewarding....Insightful

This set of cards, with book, is obviously made for women, by women.... However, I found it very useful, not-only as an Anthropological collector's item, but as a Spiritual Tool. A man who is not willing to accept the Feminine in himself and the world will Never achieve harmony with Nature's Laws. This set is a Wonderful gift or purchase for anyone interested in Spirituality/Religion/Mythology/Goddesses (THEY ARE RENDERED VERY ARTISTICALLY AND EXUDE BEAUTY AND FLOWING, GRACEFUL FORM !) and related fields of interest. You cannot go wrong with this set. If-only Tarot cards were produced so well! My Tarot collection pales in comparison with the presentation of these cards...which you will find yourself meditating upon, simply because they are so Inviting and Beautiful.... I bought one for my Girlfriend, and had to get one for myself !

Easy to use and understand

I usually have trouble using other tarot decks. The instructions are usually vague, and you have to memorize so many different meanings. But The Goddess Oracle is straight forward and easy to understand. I wasn't constantly flipping back to the booklet to find the meanings to the cards. You aren't restricted to any certain spread. I clearly understood the answers to my questions. Also, I've never seen such beautifully illustrated cards. I also liked how background info was given for each goddess. I highly recommend this.

Smart, clever, loving, and intuitive....

I have used various "tarot" decks for almost ten years and found this book and its accompanying artwork to be first-rate. It's been my favorite deck since I purchased it. I especially like the variety of goddesses in terms of their energies and how they are painted. Goddesses (women) in all phases of life and all shades of beauty are portrayed as mirrors to those elements which exist in each of us. I have used the deck and book by myself, with my husband, and with close friends to gain insight into life's daily challenges. The gentle but firm reminder to welcome all parts of ourselves and turn any situation around on the path to wholeness is a daily mantra for me. Thank you Amy and Hrana! I recommend this set to anyone looking for insight and depth into themselves and the world around them.
