Bwahaha, now I want to add the Power Animal Tarot, because shamanism has power animals, right? But then I think about the poor misled people and then I want to retract that suggestion immediately.

Penthasilia, thanks for your take on the "what do we mean by shamanic" thing. I understood your idea for the thread and a part of me really likes the openness of it. Another part, however, is curious to learn more about the reasoning behind everyone's suggestions (and some people have given theirs) and thinks that maybe a line should be drawn somewhere. For example between the list and the Power Animal deck.

Good point. You have to add this to the list. I was a pixelated gazelle in a former life.

I would definitely add the Wildwood Tarot to the shamanic decks list. Beautiful otherworldly artwork.

Good point- so I will add that request in the first post. I still don't want to censor any suggestions, but perhaps an explanation will help with understanding where people are coming from. I think that the line being drawn should remain the responsibility of the person checking out the list. All inclusive means that some questionable decks may filter in, but then each individual can make their own conclusions on which works well for them.

Oh yes, <solemnly nods>- of course, I can totally see that.

I know nothing of shamans and shamanism, but Tarot of the Origins is an incredibly powerful deck
