Summary: Insightful writing, luminous illustations - deep experience
Review: First of all, this is a dual set: a book and a magnificentlyiluustrated deck of cards, pr obably the most inspiring art I've seen since the The Keys to the Kingdom card set. We received The Goddess Oracle as a gift from a close friend who knew the book and cards intimately. We did "readings" one evening and the experience was far and away a deeper experience than we could have anticipated. There are a lot of products on the market like the Rune Stones, Medicin e Cards (which we own) and they range in insight from fortune cookie quality to cloyingly new-a ge, to I-Ching-like truths. The first major difference is the caliber of the writing; while other books' texts seem impersonal and generic, it's clear that this text comes from true depth of e xperience. To my knowledge, this is the only book of its kind, using the goddesses as metaphors for personal traits as well as archetypal feminine principles that have as their basis virtually every ancient civilization on earth, when it was woman who was the keeper of all things sacred, the healer, vitally connected to birth and all other mysteries. The amazing part is, it doesn't come off generic because the readings offer DIRECTION rather than fortune cookie axioms. How much you take the readings to heart is your own affair. But at the very least, any intelligent reader s who come to this book and cards with open hearts and minds are going to find that their resulting introspection and reflection is higly beneficial

Summary: gorgeous art, fabulous research
Review: Hrana Janto's artwork is stunning-- women of all shapes, sizes, ages and colors grace the cards, representing goddesses from an amazingly large amount of world cultures. I have an art print of my favorite goddess-- Isis-- on one of my walls, and wish I had more. The colors are vivid and the research that went into each card, the symbols that the cards contain and the representations of all the archetypes-- show strong committment to the goddess stories. This is a deck of cards that you feel good about owning, because you feel somehow connected to all these fabulous women.

Summary: Perfect, pure and powerful guidence for life's journey!
Review: I am the author of the book "MASTER DATING (RTM) How to Meet and Attract Quality Men!" No words could possibly describe how deeply these cards have impacted my life. They have guided me and my loved ones through some really tough navigations and contributed to my peace, joy and success immesurably. It is uncanny how right on they are EVERY SINGLE TIME! Many skeptics mouths have dropped open and gotten stuck that way as their card was revealed and read. Though every card is positive and powerful, it is always overwhelmingly clear that the one you pulled IS THE RIGHT ONE!!!! I highly reccommed this book and cards to every person who is ready to grow and step into thier power--and if you order them, get ready for pure love and joy because you are about to embark on an amazing journey, the journey of your life. I thank the authors and artists who created this work of energy for being my conduit to the Goddesses!

Summary: Most useful tool I own
Review: I tend to be a junkie for various metaphysical decks -- tarot cards, medicine cards, rune cards, etc. -- but the Goddess Oracle is the one I use the most because it's the most helpful and effective. It always sheds light on whatever my problem is and gives greater insight. The correspondences between the goddesses shown and the meanings are wonderful and Marashinsky's research, respect and love for the topic shine through. Janto's art is the perfect compliment. She has created some of the most beautiful depictions of goddesses I've ever seen. Everyone I've ever introduced to the Goddess Oracle has been blown away by it and soon after bought their own. That should say something.

Summary: Easy to use and understand
Review: I usually have trouble using other tarot decks. The instructions are usually vague, and you have to memorize so many different meanings. But The Goddess Oracle is straight forward and easy to understand. I wasn't constantly flipping back to the booklet to find the meanings to the cards. You aren't restricted to any certain spread. I clearly understood the answers to my questions. Also, I've never seen such beautifully illustrated cards. I also liked how background info was given for each goddess. I highly recommend this.

Summary: fun game
Review: This is beautiful artwork but the cards are too large to work with for small hands. The fun is reading the stuff as you play the game.

Summary: Beautiful Artwork, Spiritualy Rewarding....Insightful
Review: This set of cards, with book, is obviously made for women, by women.... However, I found it very useful, not-only as an Anthropological collector's item, but as a Spiritual Tool. A man who is not willing to accept the Feminine in himself and the world will Never achieve harmony with Nature's Laws. This set is a Wonderful gift or purchase for anyone interested in Spirituality/Religion/Mythology/Goddesses (THEY ARE RENDERED VERY ARTISTICALLY AND EXUDE BEAUTY AND FLOWING, GRACEFUL FORM !) and related fields of interest. You cannot go wrong with this set. If-only Tarot cards were produced so well! My Tarot collection pales in comparison with the presentation of these cards...which you will find yourself meditating upon, simply because they are so Inviting and Beautiful.... I bought one for my Girlfriend, and had to get one for myself !
