A List of New Decks
Posted: 01 Nov 2018, 14:26
Probably the greatest single consolidated list of Tarot, Lenormand and Oracle decks was the one created at the now closed Aeclectic Tarot. Fortunately for now, that entire massive list with photos and information remains archived there.
However, the list no longer seems to be updated, not since Aeclectic closed in the summer of 2016.
But the constant production of new decks has not stopped.
Cult of Tarot can pick up where Aeclectic left off.
We presently have a Library of Decks. It is small at the moment but we already have several that do not appear on Aeclectic's list because they have come out only recently.
With your help and some diligence we can create a modern current Library that is focused on new decks, essentially any deck (Tarot, Lenormand, Oracle, etc) that has come out in the last 18 months* and then continue adding new decks as they come out. This ongoing Library could indeed become a invaluable resource for informed collectors.
I would like to ask everyone to use this thread to add the names of decks to be added to our Library. I will do the work of collecting the photos and descriptions etc and contacting the artists when necessary and of course posting to the list.
Whenever you come across a new deck anywhere, on kickstarter, through a blog, anywhere at all, post it here and if possible include a link.
Let's not let all these decks slip through our fingers. We can get them posted and archived here so that we all have a chance to see them and learn about them over time. Let's create a resource here that will be useful for years to come for us and for people who have yet to discover these extraordinary decks.
EDIT: To clarify the guidelines for decks for the Cult of Tarot Library of Decks:
1. The deck(s) should not be currently posted at AT's Complete List of Decks.
We are not trying to replace that massive list, rather, continue the effort.
2. Please check the current Cult of Tarot list to make sure it isn't already there. CoT's Complete List of Decks.
3. For now, the emphasis in on "Indie" decks which have their own website (including Etsy shops and the like). Major publishing houses (USG, LoS et al) already have extensive lists, so although we will eventually get to those decks, our initial efforts here will best serve the community of creators and collectors if the prime focus is on Indie published decks.
*many decks published before the closing of AT were not posted there and would also be welcome additions to our list here.
UPDATE: I would like to also include links to reviews. You can post your reviews HERE in our review forum. Additionally, if you have reviews in a blog or on youtube, please send me the link(s) and I will include them with the deck posting. Send links to: decklist@cultoftarotforum.com
