Oh yes! And I must say that it's wonderful. I got it from Amazon, and it only took 10 days. (I live in Southamerica). I already had my welcome to the family ritual as soon as I got it; and I've felt so in touch with it, that I think it's going to be one of my favorites. I can't wait to read the book; it seems really inspiring and positive. I'm so excited.

I'm glad you love your deck :) I find my deck so inspiring and just love Bill Worthington's style.
Mind you, I am biased as a headbanging druid who is a member of OBOD.
Its quickly become my main reading deck and works wonderfully with my GreeMan Tree Oracle and the Faeries Oracle. It is so loving and accepting of all that it meets.
I find that the book gives you enough to begin to explore the cards, but with enough room to let you explore it and find your inner truth in each card :) I love books like 78 degrees of wisdom, but they can be so thorough that you dont really look yourself lol.
How are you finding the deck size? I had to trim mine in the end - but thats because I like to really shuffle my decks in my small hands.
Blessings,
Sezo

LOL! I should have said I have my hands full of the Druidcraft tarot. Yes, I'm seriously thinking about trimming the cards, but I'm trying to find the best way to do it. They look very nice without the white borders.
Hugs.

I thought about trimming mine too - in the end I decided that as I'd already learned a new way to shuffle and am comfortable with their size I'd leave them be.
If when this set gets tatty around the sides then I might think about trimming them and get a replacement also. I wonder if they'll ever just release the DruidCraft on its own without a book?
I think this deck looks amazing spread out over a table, the artwork is so inspiring, its a very easy deck to get into. :)

Congratulations on your new Druidcraft lunascorpio! It's a beautiful, wonderful, friendly and clear deck and I keep trying to think of excuses to look at it and handle it :)
Regarding size - I trimmed the white borders off mine which I think looks much nicer, but I still can't shuffle it the right way round! I've got used to shuffling it vertically now, which works most of the time but sometimes most of the cards still end up on the floor ;)
Enjoy!
Pip

I love this deck! I get the most wonderful, gentle, intuitive readings with it! The book also comes with some great suggestions for card layouts. btw I have decided not to trim, just shuffle a different way.

I've been wanting to get this deck ever since I've seen it in a bookstore where I live. But I am truely in love with my Legend deck and am a little concerned about the size of it (I've looked up images of it online and some reviews). Is it worth the money for it?

I was totally in love with Legends and still love it dearly, but Druidcraft is definately worth it. It is not an expensive deck either compared to some and absolutely wonderful. Right now I'm in love with both decks and pretty much ignoring my other ones.
The cards are a little big, but nothing you can't handle. I have small hands and deal the cards out in several piles to shuffle them. I think I get better mixes that way and don't drop cards as often either as I do when I'm shuffling Legends and other playing sized decks.
