The tarot deck and guidebook come packaged in a solid cardboard box with a high gloss finish. The image on the back of the cards - a black cat, witch’s hat, and broom on a dark blue and starry background - is not reversible. These cards have no borders to the image, and the titles, as noted before are given at the bottom of the illustration on a cream coloured banner. Witches ride motorbikes complete with black cat in a sidecar, practice yoga, wear drapey robes and cloaks, brandish wands swirling with magic, and drink cocktails on the shore… Yet life is not relentlessly positive, bad things happen too, but the Everyday Witch has an optimistic outlook. They live in an enviable world which is suspended somewhere between pseudo-mediaeval fantasy and our modern reality. There are both male and female witches, as well as some quite androgynous characters, spread across a broad age range. The images have been crafted specifically for this deck with imagination, sympathy, and humour – the witches themselves sport their conical hats and striped socks (or stockings, leggings) as they go about witchy deeds as part of their daily lives. Each card is detailed and well balanced and executed with deftness and assurance. The images are whimsical, with strong bright colours and lines. The colour schemes tend towards poetic realism with gorgeous skies that veer between peachy sunsets, aqueous evenings, and moody days, rich green fields and deep dark woods, with the witches clad in inevitable black, vivid scarlet, midnight blues and Lincoln green.Įlizabeth Alba utilises modern techniques with watercolours in a style often found in fantasy art and children's book illustrations. The Everyday Witch Tarot has a broad palette of both strong and delicate colours. The print quality is superb, reproducing the fine lines and subtleties of colour without misprints, blurriness, or colour bleeds.

The finish on the Everyday Witch Tarot is smooth and glossy with an ever so slightly toothy texture which facilitates easy handling and shuffling. A heavy-handed user that was not particularly careful with their cards could easily bend or damage them. The card stock is light and quite thin, which makes the cards extremely flexible. This deck measures 70 x 118 mm, which makes it a fairly standard sized tarot which will sit comfortably in most user’s hands.

The titles of all cards are given in full on a banner at the bottom of the illustrations. The Minor Arcana suits each have 10 number cards and 4 Court cards – Page, Knight, Queen, and King. The titles of Major Arcana cards are familiar and unchanged, and the suits of the Minor Arcana are Swords, Pentacles, Cups, and Wands. This is a classic 78 card deck, with 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana cards. The deck is created by author Deborah Blake and artist Elisabeth Alba. A broad spectrum of situations and corresponding emotions are tackled with a delicate touch which neither mocks the seriousness of the situation nor suffocates them under a blanket of Pagan jargon. Instead we are presented with witches tackling everyday life issues with exuberance, grit, and determination. This deck steps away from depicting witches as serious, humourless, and weighed down with new-age cliches – clad in monastic robes, a crystal clasped in one hand and communing solemnly with the spirits of nature. While there are many tarot decks focused on witches very few are as well envisioned, charming, and satisfyingly complete as the Everyday Witch Tarot. Everyday Witch Tarot Review by medusawink
