Choosing Your First Tarot Deck

I see a lot of people saying choosing your first deck can be overwhelming, as there’s so many out there and a lot of misconceptions about how you should obtain your first deck. So heres some tips on how to make the process a little easier:

1. You don’t have to be gifted your first deck.

This is a myth. Sure, it would be nice, but not everyone can take that route. You are perfectly able to buy your own first deck.

2. Choose a deck you like the art of.

A lot of people tend to think you need to be “drawn” to the deck and it isn’t a matter of art. But I personally 100% believe that if you don’t like the art of a deck, you won’t connect to it nearly as well. Liking the art is half of what it means to be drawn to it, if not more, if you ask me. Liking the art will make you want to use it more, and you’ll be much more drawn to it yourself.

3. Choose a deck that comes with a guidebook.

Beginners, you won’t know any of the cards to start. Meanings differ slightly from deck to deck, so it’s important to get a deck that comes with a guidebook or something similar to help you with the meanings. There are free apps out there, but I always suggest getting a deck with a book too. Llewellyn, as garbage as they are of a publishing company, tends to sell pretty decently priced decks with nice art that usually always come with some form of a guidebook. I personally reccommend the Dreamscapes or Linestrider deck, as I have both.

4. Try to go for decks that use the generic titles for suits.

It can be a whole other layer of learning when your deck calls suits by different things. Like in some decks swords might be “sticks” or something like that. Not every deck uses the same names for suits, and for your first deck, I always suggest going for the usual names. It just makes things faster to learn and one less thing to remember.

5. Higher quality decks will be priced higher, and a little harder to obtain.

Llewellyn’s decks, while great for beginners, are pretty average quality. They’ll do you well but they’re nothing to be amazed by, if you ask me. But if you want something ultra fancy like the Ophidia Rosa Tarot, pictured above, which has antique foiled edges and matte finished cards, it’ll run bout about $70CAD and is only available through certain witchy stores and specific online stores. I bought mine from a local shop, and am unsure as to where to find it online that’s trustworthy and hasn’t ripped it off. But if you want a really, amazing deck my first suggestion is instagram. I’ve found so many beautiful decks through instagram, and the artists usually make an account themselves to promote it, with a link to where you can buy it in their bio. They often aren’t available through amazon.

It’s important to remember that decks are works of art. The more that goes into a deck and printing a deck, the more the artist will want to price it for. Printing is expensive and drawing takes a lot of time, especially for 78 cards.

6. Don’t feel like you have to splurge on your first deck.

There’s tons of decks out there, like Llewellyn decks, that have great art for great prices. If you like the traditional look of the Rider Waite deck, you can find it for about 10 dollars on amazon. If you find out you love tarot, you can always save for a deck that’s really expensive and super fabulous quality, so don’t feel like you need to spend a lot right off the bat. Not everyone can do that, and that’s totally fine to go for cheaper decks.

You can’t define who is a witch and who is not

The witch that goes all out and does intense ritual work and magick everyday, is a witch.

The witch whom only does magick in emergencies or once in a blue moon, is a witch.

The witch who quietly whispers their spells and uses only their mind to manipulate energy, is a witch

A witch who knows everything there is to know on a witchcraft topic but never does spell work or magick themselves, is a witch.

A witch who knows nothing about witchcraft and hasn’t done magick yet but wants to, is a witch

The witch that does witchcraft everyday without knowing it, is a witch…Or just a person if they don’t desire the title. (And that’s ok!)

The witch who curses when wronged, is a witch

The witch who doesn’t believe in cursing, is a witch

The witch who follows a religious path, is a witch

The witch who follows no religion, is a witch

The witch that worships Gods, is a witch

The witch whom worships no one, is a witch

A witch that follows a group or coven, is a witch

A witch whom is solitary, is a witch

The witch that follows a specific way of witchcraft, is a witch

A witch that just does whatever they feel like and has no specific craft, is a witch

A witch that can’t do certain witchcraft because of a disability, is a witch

A witch who is old and wise with years of age on her skin, is a witch

A witch who is young and naive about the world and her craft, is a witch

A person with a penis whom calls themselves a witch instead of wizard, is a witch

A witch that loves sex and celebrates the creation of life through sex, is a witch

A witch whom isn’t sexual and values life without the creation process, is a witch

A witch that is broke and can’t afford to buy witchy thing for their craft, is a witch

A witch on a more negative or forceful path, is a witch

A witch on a passive or positive path, is a witch

The witch that wears all black and whom everyone already suspects is a witch, is a witch

So is the one wearing pink and flower crowns, they are also a witch

A witch, is a witch, is a witch.

Blood, age, color, background, knowledge, gender, or skill level means nothing.

You cannot define witchcraft or a witch. One person’s ‘imagination’ is another persons magick. One person’s ‘prayer’ is another persons invoking ritual. A person wishing upon a shooting star or making a wish on a dandelion is one persons hope and wishful thinking and another persons will to make something happen.

Know this. Remember this. Respect this.

Hey witches, take your absolute time when it comes to learning witchcraft. Quality comes from time, and time creates something beautiful and intricate. Please stop rushing your craft and path, and take the time to learn and grow.
