Editorial Review of The Wisdom of Avalon Oracle Cards: A 52-Card Deck and Guidebook
The Wisdom of Avalon Oracle Cards by Colette Baron-Reid is a 52-card divination system—an inspirational tool to bridge the unseen world of Spirit and the physical world of our day-to-day lives. Based on the rich mythology of ancient Britain’s Isle of Avalon and the wisdom teachings of its priestesses, these cards will help you find valuable and powerful insights in all aspects of life as you chart your path and manifest your destiny with clarity and purpose.
Their use will shed light on what has been, what needs illumination in the present, and what will weave patterns into the future. The deck will help you discover the potential of your own intuition as you follow the omens and symbols of the Goddess, the Kingdom of the Faeries, Merlin, and the Priestess of magical Avalon. See into the future . . . and discover that you are more than you know!

Customer Reviews of The Wisdom of Avalon Oracle Cards: A 52-Card Deck and Guidebook

Review Summary: Spiritual Tools
Review: Another soul lifting/guiding tool to enhance your humanistic experience and offer some logical insight and guidance. Very different than a tarot deck. These offer ways of improving yourself and preparing for the future rather than foretelling your future.

Review Summary: Right on EVERY time!
Review: I purchased these cards on a recommendation from a store owner. I wasn't sure and really werent looking for another deck of cards. I have used various Doreen Virtue's cards for more than 10 years. But I went ahead and tried them out.
I am so pleased to get them! They have been more accurate than any decks I have ever had. I consult them on a daily basis. I have friends and relatives call me to ask questions. I started giving reading again, just because I was so amazed at how accurate these cards have shown.
Thank you for such a beautiful set of Oracle Cards. I am so glad to share the guidance with those around me. I truly feel the love with these cards. And now.. have learned more about the author and am listening to Hay House Radio each week!

Review Summary: Wisdom of Avalon at your fingertips
Review: When I first received the "Wisdom of Avalon Oracle" I was so excited. After all, the legend of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake are among my favorites.
The author of the deck is Colette Baron-Reid. I'd heard many good things about her, and was looking forward to reading her interpretations of the characters of Avalon.
Gary A. Lippincott is the artist for the deck, and I have to say, his artwork is absolutely beautiful. He's one of the featured artists on the world famous site for the Duirwaigh Gallery (a favorite site for those of us who love faery and fantasy artwork).
The deck itself includes 52 cards, and is divided into four groups. The first 31 cards are done in a soft watercolor. The last 21 cards look they could be a photograph of a trail through the forest. These cards are all the same, except for the journey marker sign than is specific to that card.
The Messengers of Avalon contains eight cards and includes the Merlin, the High Priestess, the King, the Queen, the Novice, the Grail Knight, the Bard and the Lady of the Lake.
The Animal Guides of Avalon contains 18 cards, and includes the Eagle, the Raven, the Hawk, the Swan, the Owl, the Frog, the Spider, the Bee, the Stag, the Cat, the Dog, the Cow, the Wasp, the Deer, the Serpent, the Dragon, the Butterfly, and the Horse.
The Guides of Faery contain five cards, and include the Earth Faery, the Water Faery, the Wind Faery, the Fire Faery and the Goblin.
The largest grouping is the Sacred Journey Markers, which contain 21 cards. These include Partnership, Focus, Wealth, Restriction, Movement, Joy, Protection, Disruption, Risk, Communication, Perception, Burden, Letting Go, Love, Death, Trust, Fear, Forgiveness, Birth-Rebirth, Truth, and the Mystery.
Where the characters aren't actually from the legends of King Arthur, they are still definitely of Avalon and the realm of the faery folk. I was especially pleased with the section on animals, as this deck includes many animals sacred to the Celts that aren't included in other Celtic oriented decks I've seen.
There is a 109 page guidebook that goes along with the deck that gives a more detailed description of each card, along with a chapter on how to use the cards (including how to do a single card reading, and a three and five card reading). I found the book to be very well written and highly enjoyable.
I've already given several readings with this deck, and have to say they have been very insightful. The more I work with this deck, the more I enjoy it, and the deeper the insights seem to go. And one does not need to be a pro to enjoy reading with these cards.
Whether you are a beginning reader, or a seasoned intuitive, or just someone who loves to collect Celtic inspired decks, I would highly recommend "The Wisdom of Avalon" to anyone interested in the realm of Avalon.

Review Summary: Oracle Cards that get to the heart of things!
Review: I am one the loves to use Oracle cards and have many different kinds. However when I started using these cards they felt different and are right on the target every time. The pictures are absolutely beautiful as is the gold trim around the outside of the cards. They are wonderful to work with and the readings are so accurate. If you are one that likes to work with Oracle cards, I would recommend giving these a try.

Review Summary: One of the Best
Review: I am not a fan per se of this artist but I was attracted to this product when I saw it in a catalog. The art is wonderful and has a great feel. I felt I got a great product for the price. I normally don't like Tarot cards , but am a fan of The Mists of Avalon and was not disappointed by this deck.
To those who complained about half the cards only having a sign in the woods. Frankly, I preferred them that way. It allowed me to view the word and my own connotation with the meaning without someone else's interpretation.
For example: The "death" card is like this. Just a sign in the woods. Now normally death would have a negative connotation, but I was also able to view this as the death of something old in my life so I can accept something new (so in a positive light). Had the card had skulls and worms on it, it would have been nothing but negative and would have blocked me from seeing all interpretations.
Take if for what you want, but I still believe it is a great deck.
