Deck review: Everyday Witch by Deborah Blake and Elisabeth Alba

Black cats, pointed hats, and magic brooms, too!

Favorable Fortunes for Curious Witches

A fun, practical, easy-to-use tarot kit for every witch. Charming images pair with simple explanations to make this the go-to deck for anyone seeking to learn or practice the tarot. Based on the classic Rider-Waite deck but updated for the busy modern witch, this tarot has a whimsical air while still being dedicated to the serious job of providing answers to life's tough questions. Author Deborah Blake brings her friendly, approachable style to a tarot experience that's focused on the positive.

Includes a deck with brilliant art and a full-color guidebook.

You can see the full flickthrough on tiktok or youtube. I posted two spreads, an interview spread and the Hearth & Moon Spell Spread.

Wednesday Spread: Hearth & Moon Spell Spread, Everyday Witch Tarot

Happy Wednesday, all! Welcome to the Wednesday spread. We're working with the Everyday Witch Tarot this week, and as the LWB only has one, three and Celtic Cross spreads, I've come up with a spread especially for the deck! This is the Hearth & Moon Spell Spread. Lay seven cards out; 1 in the centre, 2 above it, 3 and 4 down on the right, 5 and 6 up on the left, and 7 at the bottom. You should end up with a circle and one card inside. Instructions below, and my spread below that!

Different Decks, Same Question: Everyday Witch, Cosy Witch & Witches Tarot

If you’ve spent any time around tarot decks, you’ll notice one thing: they cluster around themes. Witches. Cats. Folklore. Crystals. Wild animals. Whatever aspect of life you can imagine, there’s probably a deck for it.

But even decks that share a theme can feel wildly different. The way a card is drawn, the atmosphere of the illustrations, the little details the artist chooses, they all shape how the deck “talks” to you.

In this post, we’re going to look at three witchy decks and how they handle the same four cards. This isn’t a contest for “which is better” or “more magical.” Instead, it’s a chance to see how each deck creates its own tone, voice, and approach to the same story.

By the end, you’ll see how the same Major or Minor Arcana can feel comforting, challenging, playful, or serious - depending entirely on the deck. And maybe, just maybe, you’ll notice what kind of conversation you want to have with your tarot cards.

Happy Wednesday, all! Welcome to the Wednesday spread. This week we're interviewing the Everyday Witch! A year ago I interviewed the mini version of this deck, so I'm interested to see what the differences are going to be!
