Divinatory Esoteric And Occult Tarot Are You Good Witch Or Bad

Ah a question I have been asked more than a few times. I so wanted to be Glinda, from the Wizard of Oz, I was kinda obsessed with her dress when I was little. Now I do recognise that it is a little OTT. I digress.

Gillian Kemp has published multiple books and decks and this by far is my favourite. The designs are quirky the cards are about the size of a bankcard and there is more than first meets the eye with this deck.

The 52 cards are in two categories. Good Witches and Bad Witches, not only does this distinction make this deck interesting but along with the meaning of each individual card there is a spell that works with the theme of the card. There are also the elemental correspondences represented within the cards.

For example the Good Witch - The Fairy Ring Witch's accompanying spell is to Ring in the Changes of Good Luck. Similarly the Bad Witch - The Broomstick Witch's' spell is to Stop being asked for a Date by a Toad.

Some of the spells certainly are a little bad, but I am not really convinced that they would work; maybe the intent is to have someone feel a little better about their situation. Like all things intention is the key.

The little book is full colour and easy to navigate. The spreads available are:

* The Yes or No Love Divination Spread
* The Cauldron Spread
* The Lucky 13 Spread
* The Name Game Spread
* Change of Luck Spread

This deck would be fun to use when with friends and having a lighthearted night, although I have used it in more serious arenas as an accompaniment to the Tarot.
