Ogham: The Celtic Oracle - Page 3

6 Haunted Days · 09-10-2007

I got this set back last January, and it really is the most illuminated, vibrant and just plain stunning Ogham deck out there. The images really draw you in, plus the cards are borderless and huge. You don't hear much mention of this set, but they're great for contemplation and mediation. They are full of animals, faeries, churchyards, ruins and really interesting characters, they have a very Otherworldly ambience, like a misty dream. Quite intense.

I love

Peter Prancownik's artwork, I wish he would do a Celtic Tarot or something similar, his other 2 (LOTR and Dragon) just aren't my thing.

Anyone else use this set?

Here is a link to scans, in case someone is confused what deck it is...

I like the pictures and art, and would get it, but £23.00 from Amazon (in the middle of a postal strike as well!) for 21 cards seems a little steep. Pracownik is good but I found his Dragon Tarot bland and boring...he seems to have livened up his imagery though, which is good.

Maybe my big Odin will buy his little Freyja it for her birthday, though he seems to agree --- squeezes M's hand playfully ---

Don't want to be a wicked enabler or anything

but it's actually £17 or £15 at amazon uk marketplace... I'm more inclined towards the green man tree oracle myself

Yes that's next on my list! Why not get them all??

What's so upsetting is I used to own so many oracles!!

Green Man Tree
Celtic Book of the Dead
Celtic Tree
Druid Animal Oracle

on and on....during one of my cross country moves my oracle box vansished

that is very sucky!

Now I've got to get them all again.

Wow, I've never seen this oracle before but it looks gorgeous. There are loads of them on Amazon UK too so not that hard to find.

I have the deck and the box and I would be willing to scan the cards in so that someone could see the whole deck.

Overstock.com claims to have them and so does Amazon and the House of Tarot. Overstock's price is cheaper, but with shipping costs it's about the same as Amazon.

These look lovely.

They are, their stunning! The cards are large so the image has quite an impact. The images and colouring are just exquisite, I'm always suprised this oracle doesn't get much mention.

He really needs to do a non-theme Tarot deck!!!

I have this deck. It was my first oracle deck and I really love it. It gives clear answers and the little book that comes with it is very helpful. Because this is such a good deck I now want more oracle decks. Before, I was just a tarot person but now I want oracles.

I have this deck, I bought it at www.overstock.com for a reasonable price.
I even found blue fabric with black scrollwork and flowers to make a bag that matches the back of this deck. It's one oracle that I use frequently besides The Greenman Tree Oracle. I seem to read well with it.
