I would like to hear feedback from people in regards to favorite on-line catalogs for tarot, best prices, and best selection. Also, I wanted to know if anyone knows of a deck with wolves, and of your favorite decks with Faeries, Moons and Angels, besides the Oracle cards. Thanks!

Ahhh yes... one of my favorite topics and past times... purchasing Tarot decks! First of all (and I quote from the Aeclectic Tarot "Contributions" page): Buy your Tarot items through Aeclectic Tarot ...all items listed on Aeclectic Tarot have ordering links. These may go to Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Tarot Garden or Tarot World, depending on the availability of the item. When you order from Amazon.com directly after clicking on an Aeclectic Tarot link, 15% of the value of your purchase goes to Aeclectic Tarot. You may also order any other item from Amazon.com, and as long as you clicked through an Aeclectic Tarot link, 5% of your purchase will go towards Aeclectic Tarot's upkeep. So go the Decks section on Aeclectic, and order away! If you don't find the decks you want here, try these great sites: Tarot Garden - specializes in hard-to-find decks and features a great searchable database: http://www.tarotgarden.com/ Learning the Tarot - excellent Tarot resource site by Joan Bunning, with many decks and wonderful service: http://www.learntarot.com/decks1.htm Alida - over 500 decks(!!), with great prices and service. They are in the Republic of San Marino, so you need to factor in shipping costs and time if you are outside of Europe. http://www.alidastore.com/indexen.html R. Somerville - hundreds of decks at good prices (from Great Britain): http://www.playingcardsales.co.uk/nbtar/index.htm Astrology Center of America - good selection and detailed information on decks: http://www.astroamerica.com/t-menu.html The Mystic Eye - cool site with some hard-to-find decks: http://www.themysticeye.com/ Il Trigono - Italian site with good selection and prices: http://www.trigono.com/tarots/ Aunt Agatha's Occult Emporium - wide variety of occult goodies and decks: http://web.idirect.com/~agatha/catalog/catalog.html Happy Tarot shopping }) !!

I think my favorite Angel deck would be Winged Spirt, there is an Angel Tarot but the minors and courts are horrid, just pictures ofthe items and they use playing card suits instead of tarot suits. Winged Spirit has little sybolism, but meaning is portrayed by the way people interact with the angels on the cards. Its very pretty :)

Liliana, that's the only angel deck I like... Its artist, David Sexton, is the one doing the Oz deck due out soon (which I am superlatively excited about).

Phoenix, I almost always order from Amazon, even if Chapters has it. Why? Even with the sucky exchange rate, Amazon is still cheaper!
