As you might have gathered from my “Things I Wasted My Money on while Trying to Figure out My Spirituality” post, I’ve always been a spend now, ask questions later kind of gal. That had to change this summer when I quit my full-time job and suddenly found myself in need of a budget more than ever before. That’s been good for my spending habits but also I’ve been dying of decklust ALL SUMMER. Not buying frivolous things is super boring, guys.

It has, however, really made me realize which decks I REALLY need in my collection and which were just passing fancies. So here are 5 decks that I’ll be slowly adding to my collection over the next few months! If you’re looking to add to yours too, you might want to check these babies out.

(I’m embedding images from the artists’ Instagrams to show you the cards when I can – I really encourage you to go follow them! ♥)

The Darkness of Light Tarot

If you follow me on Instagram, you’re probably like “… really?” because this deck is very different than my usual pastel aesthetic, but I’m completely in love with it. (And I do have a lot of non-pastel decks that I love!) This deck is a bit gloomy but with some subtle pops of color that work so well together. Each suit is in a different shade family, such as pink for the suit of Wands, and the cards are just so lovely. I think this would be a great deck for a wide variety of people, as the imagery is dark but not in a “scary” or foreboding way!

The Universal Mind Oracle

I was so out of the loop on this deck that I didn’t even hear about it until all of a sudden everyone I follow on Instagram was receiving their pre-orders! I absolutely adore the vibe I’m getting from this deck from afar. The imagery is very nature-inspired but with dreamy, otherworldly effects that really make the cards come alive.

The Rider-Waite Smith Centennial Edition

I’ve really warmed up to the artwork on the Rider-Waite Smith deck over the years, but the copy I have has the most garish color scheme that I never want to read with it. The Centennial Edition has much more muted coloring and I think I’ll like it much better. I feel like a RWS deck is a staple in any tarot reader’s collection even if you never read with it just for the sake of being able to consult the original artwork every once in a while, and this is a lovely copy to have if you don’t own one already!

Compendium of Constellations

This is the latest oracle deck by Claire of Black and the Moon and holy wow, it’s gorgeous! (Okay, I love everything Claire has ever done ever so this isn’t a surprise.) I have her second edition Arcana of Astrology deck and I absolutely adore it – the beautiful colors and uncluttered cards are exactly my style. This deck looks to be a different size which is fun, and I love love LOVE the artwork, like, so much. I think I’m going to pop this one on the ol’ birthday wishlist, so fingers crossed it doesn’t go out of stock before November!

Legend of the Wizard Laird Lenormand

I love everything from Malpertuis and have known for quite some time that I wanted my first Lenormand deck to be one of Neil’s. I had been lusting over the Malpertuis Lenormand for quite some time, but as soon as I saw the Legend of the Wizard Laird deck I fell head over heels. I love the gloomy aesthetic and the folk tale behind it. It’s still in-progress right now, but if you’re interested in ordering it when it’s released, you can reserve a copy on the deck’s page!

So those are the five decks on my wishlist right now! What decks are you lusting over? Let me know in the comments, I’d love to know!
