Hi there

Ok I'm on a mission :) I have a dear friend who doesnt read tarot or anything but is starting to become interested, I have given her a pendulum which she loves and is getting good results with..

Shes going through a really hard time now due to her brothers death and i've found that her brother has had lots of messages for her in the tarot readings.. so I want to get her an oracle deck ..

Now in terms of art she loves my Bohemiam gothic deck, so i'm looking for an oracle with that sort of art....

can you guys help?

Thank you!

Fallen Angels is the nearest you'll get to the BG in Oracle style but it might be a bit Satanically scarey for her.

A nice, reader-friendly fortune telling Oracle is the Madame Endora's. easy to read and most people like it I think. It always comes out near the top in "fave oracle" lists.

i'll have a look at some fallen angel pics thanks, dont think she is the scary type lol shes certainly not fluffy...

ive got madame endora, I can see what she thinks of those as well thanks..

Psycards is very approachable as a first deck and she may like the art http://www.psycards.com/ It's not dark or gothic though may still appeal.

The Oracle of Shadows and Light might be an option:

I was just going to suggest that oracle too:). I love it! It has a bit of a gothic-feel, but it's rather non-threatening and very easy to read with. And it's not a fluffy-bunny oracle, you get both positive and negative cards, which makes the readings more balanced.

And by the same artist & author team is coming soon the Oracle of the Shapeshifter. You can read more about it here. It's going to be released on August 2011.

I went for the oracle of shadows and light and a lovely sUlis bag for it to live it :)
