Beautiful - especially the writeup. Judgement is one of my "frequent flyer" cards - I get it a lot. :)

Wow- this card is just beautiful- after seeing it I went and ordered myself one of her limited majors only decks! I can't wait to get my hands on them, I am just in love with these cards, what an incredible deck this will be :)

She has one card to go, but click on "Majors" at the top of the page to see the deck as a whole. It's really impressive!

It certainly is! I have been rushing to the site everytime a new card is added and I often pop in to have a quick drool ;) I don't know whether I could choose a favourite card because I love them all in different ways, but I have to say that this Awakening card really touched me- has to be my personal favourite Judgement card of all the ones I have seen... bravo Joanna :)

This is the one deck I've been waiting for for ages. I've been on the mailing list since she finished The Sun which was her first card.
I can't afford the limited edition Majors only set so I'll have a lot more waiting to do till the full 78 card set comes out.
I can't wait to see what Joanna does with the minors :)
Love
Sulis xx

I was going to post why I love this deck, but thought I'd go read Joanna's Intro to see if I'd just be repeating what she has said about the deck. Well, that's what would have happened. The point being, she's accomplished her goal of creating a deck that's nature based & the people in it being contemporary & mythic in feel. I'd say that's quite an accomplishment. They look so natural & in their element, not forced or like they were "dressed" up & posed for an artist - if that makes sense to anyone. I don't know that I'm expressing that feeling well enough. It looks like you have a peek into a modern spiritual person's inner workings.

Oh wow, I love Joanna's deck-so-far, but this card brought tears to my eyes!
I find it incredibly moving, really deeply moving!

Temperance just went up on her site today.

She's right about the completely full moon rising just as the sun sets, and the sun rising just as the full moon sets. The solar bodies work that way!

Thank you, Hudson! :o) Temperance is just as magnificent as the others. I used to work at a job where I had to be there quite early in the morning. As I would drive to work the sun would be rising before me & if I looked in the rearview mirror I'd see the moon setting behind me. It was that magic that made driving to work around 5:30 in the morning bearable.
