OOC: Crowdsource Tarot Decks Available!

[sythyry]

beetiger and I decided that we'd like a physical version of the Crowdsource Tarot, to use at our traditional Samhain divination sessions. So beetiger went and found a way to get card decks done print-on-demand, and put on her layoutcritter hat, and made something real and shuffleable that can be laid out on a table, thrown across the room, or whatever.

We just got the sample deck we made back and, well, it's kinda awesome. beetiger made it all beautiful with ripply colors and a nice clear presentation of the text -- upright meanings upright if the card is upright, reversed meanings upright if it's reversed. So we've decided to make this available to those of you who might enjoy it.

The 86 card deck has the descriptive texts, together with the upright and reversed meanings, on full color, laminated, poker-sized cards. The card colors correspond to the colors of the rainbow, which map to the chakras, which map to the extended version of the Maslow's Hierarchy, which map to the suits of the Crowdsource Tarot. The “Yes” card is the wonderful symmetrical design by chipuni, and the backs feature a detail from an abstract painting created by my grandmother.

Expect a pre-order from me in the next few days, i.e., after payday which is tomorrow.

I can't paypal anymore (bankrupcy means no credit cards now:() any other options?

We'll take a check, if that works for you.

Unfortunately, Canada is now a foreign country for postal as well as legal and moral purposes -- um, you are in Canada now? -- and we'll have to charge more postage. Vicki'll explain how much.

Postage would be $10, I'm afraid, just for first class which is the cheapest method. So a check for $25 total would work. Ping me at vickib AT gmail if you don't still have our physical address.

Is there a check on the way? Either way is cool, I just need to know if I deck for you should be on the order list or not.

*interested look* It's after the 9th.. I know I can't get a deck before Samhain, which is fine... but is the price going to stay the same? I really want one of these, but payday isn't til the 21st.. Paypal isn't a problem, at least.

It'll be available from the card printer for a long time, but, unfortunately, they charge a lot more than we do for shipping.

Hi there! This deck was done via the Game Crafter, with whom we were moderately happy.

I'm actually a doula as well, and I'm curious as to how you might use a deck of specialty cards in your practice. Would love to hear more about it!
