Enchanted Forest Felines First Impressions
I love a deck with cats. Can't help it, there's just something about them. This looks like a great mix of cat behaviour and fantasy style, and I can't wait to start working with it and see what it's going to be like.
At a Glance
Publisher: Llewellyn
Art Style: Coloured, slightly cartoonish, very recognisable
Size: Standard tarot dimensions
Theme: Magical cats
First Impressions Guide: Yes, concise and elegant
First Impressions
The colours and brightness of this deck are amazing. The Minors are renamed, which always adds some depth to readings. Some of the cats are very cat like which I always love.
I’m curious about a few things as I dive in:
- Are they all cats, or are some of them people who look like cats?
- What difference will the renamed Minors make?
- Where there are differences, how will they affect a reading or spread?
The deck feels friendly and encouraging - I'm looking forward to getting some readings from it.

My very first card from the deck is the Emperor. The Emperor is a leader and father figure to the rest of the cats, a guide and helper. It feels like a good sign for the rest of our work together.
Closing Thoughts
One card in, seventy-seven to go - and I’m already excited. This deck feels like it'll be fun and light while still being useful. I can't wait to dig in even further.
I’ll be back soon with more impressions - and likely a few surprises along the way.

Wednesday Spread: Apple Pie Spread, Supernatural Tiny Tarot
Happy Wednesday, all! Welcome to the Wednesday spread. This week we're tackling the Apple Pie spread, a spread designed for use with this deck. It's meant to help you discover what you want out of life. Sounds like fun! So far, this deck hasn't pulled a single Major card, so let's see if that continues across this spread.

Wednesday Spread: Interview spread, Supernatural Tiny Tarot
Happy Wednesday, all! Welcome to the Wednesday Spread. Today we're doing the interview spread with the Supernatural Tiny Tarot from Titan/Insight Editions. I have worked with the full size version, but not very seriously for quite a while; I wasn't even doing interview spreads back then! So this is going to be really interesting, I think.

Supernatural Tiny Tarot: Overview
Based on the long running TV series, with a narrow palette and mixed Minors, one of the only decks I've seen with that feature. This is going to be a fun deck to explore!

Supernatural Tiny Tarot: First Impressions
I know that as a group tarot readers are divided over fandom decks, but I've always enjoyed them. The larger Supernatural deck was one of my first ones, when I was much less skilled than I am now, and I'm looking forward to seeing how my experience of it changes as I work with the mini version.
At a Glance
Publisher: Titan/Insight Ed
Art Style: Stylised, mixed illustrations and pips, limited palette
Size: Mini
Theme: Based on the Supernatural TV series
First Impressions Guide: Yes, concise and elegant
First Impressions
The narrow palette is attention grabbing and so far I've recognised the characters, which is a great sign.
I’m curious about a few things as I dive in:
Will the mini feel different than the regular size?
I haven't seen the show in a few years, will that affect anything?
How will the physical size affect things?
First Draw
Three of Goblets. The deck wants to be friends! This feels like a good omen as I start my exploration of this deck.
Closing Thoughts
One card in, seventy-seven to go - and I’m already intrigued. The Supernatural Tiny Tarot feels like a deck for action and adventure. I’m excited to explore this fandom driven deck and see if I can pick up some interesting new stories.
I’ll be back soon with more impressions - and likely a few surprises along the way.

Deck review: Ukrainian Tarot

Wednesday Spread: Ukrainian Tarot, Hearth and Path
This week, I pulled a five-card spread with the Ukrainian Tarot, exploring themes of vitality, resilience, destiny, reflection, and celebration. Each card is rooted in folklore, history, and the natural world, creating a narrative that moves from the spark of life to the joy of shared community.
1. The Seed π± — 6 of Fire (Viburnum Berries) π₯
What is beginning in your life right now?
Clusters of bright red berries hang close in the foreground, spilling into the blurred forest behind. These are viburnum berries, symbols of life, blood, and immortality. Folklore tells of a murdered lover whose tree grows from her grave, and a flute carved from the wood calls out her killer. Life, death, and memory intertwine here - a reminder that actions and intentions carry forward beyond the immediate.
The 6 of Fire as The Seed reminds us that beginnings are full of potential, resonance, and the courage to step into unknown but fertile ground.
2. The Root πΎ — Tower (Khotyn Fortress) π°
What gives you strength, stability, or grounding?
A formidable fortress rises along a river, scarred by centuries of siege and attack. Khotyn has fallen and been rebuilt countless times, yet it still stands - a testament to resilience and endurance. Unlike some Towers that emphasise sudden collapse, this one whispers: sometimes things fall despite all your efforts, and that’s not your fault. Survival and the ability to rebuild are true marks of strength.
As The Root, Khotyn anchors the reading: your strength lies not only in what you build, but in your capacity to endure and rebuild when life tests you.
3. The Challenge π₯ — 8 of Water (Snake in the Bones) ππ
What tension or obstacle is asking to be met?
A snake slithers through a still body of water, patient and quiet. Folklore tells of a man who tried to avoid his foretold death by releasing his horse, only to be killed later by a snake dwelling in the horse’s grave. This card reminds us that letting go of attachments doesn’t always change destiny, and sometimes events unfold beyond our control. Awareness and acceptance become the tools of navigating life’s currents.
As The Challenge, the 8 of Water invites reflection on fate, attachment, and the subtle currents that influence outcomes.
4. The Action π¦ — 6 of Water (Willow by the River) πΏπ§
What energy, initiative, or step can you take?
A willow leans gracefully over the water, catching a ray of sunlight. In Ukrainian tradition, willow branches are a symbol of remembrance, honouring the past like the palms that welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem. This card invites reflection on memory, connection, and honouring what came before.
In the Action position, the 6 of Water suggests pausing to integrate lessons, honour continuity, and nurture insight - moving with awareness rather than force.
5. The Gift ✨ — 2 of Fire (Circle Dance) π₯π
What will be the reward or insight if you follow the path?
Figures in traditional costumes move in a tight, joyful circle, rhythm and energy almost tangible. This card celebrates community, collaboration, and shared joy, rooted in tradition. Following the themes of vitality, resilience, fate, and reflection, the 2 of Fire invites us to move together, celebrate life, and honour the shared rhythms that carry us forward.
As The Gift, it shows that the culmination of this journey is connection, celebration, and the joy that comes from sharing life’s dance with others.
πΏ Reflection
This spread traces a journey from the spark of life and vitality (6 of Fire) through resilience and grounding (Tower), acceptance of fate (8 of Water), reflection and nurturing action (6 of Water), to celebration and shared community (2 of Fire).
The Hearth & Path spread highlights how the Ukrainian Tarot blends folklore, historical resonance, and visual storytelling. Even amid challenge or uncertainty, there is a rhythm to follow, roots to honour, and joy to share. Step forward with awareness, stand steadfast when tested, and let the shared energy of your community carry you. πΏ✨
