Introduction
In this article, I will share my perspective on the top 3 best oracle card decks. For each deck, I will share WHY I love it and also any aspects of the deck that I don’t love. Because the artwork inside of a tarot deck is VERY important to me, I am guessing it is for you too, I will also include links to video flip throughs of each deck so you can see the artwork on each card inside the deck

Medicine Cards: The Discovery of Power Through the Ways of Animals
- Deck Authors – Jamie Sams, David Carson and Angela C. Werneke
Why I love this deck?
- This deck taps into nostalgia for me because it was the first oracle deck I ever used and I have been using it ever since. I love the Native American Animal Totem aspect and the idea that we can learn from the ways of animals. When I was in third grade, I was quite imaginative and I wrote in my journal that I should be called “Flying Deer”. To this day, I am not quite sure where that inspiration came from.
- When you use this deck over a period of time you start to appreciate and connect the different animals with their meaning or symbolism. When I see animals out in the wild, I immediately think of what that animal represents. For example, in this deck, a snake represents “transmutation”, so when I see a snake, I appreciate BOTH the animal and the message in that moment.
- The introduction in the book that comes with the cards describes where the teachings associated with this deck come from including the intention behind the deck. There are also some pretty helpful spreads suggested in the book.
Things I DO NOT love about it
- Similar to the deck above – there isn’t anything I would change about this deck. There is much wisdom within it and beautiful intentions in the creation of it.

Foxfire the Kitsune Oracle by Lucy Cavendish and Meredith Dillman
Why I love this deck
- FOXES! This deck has lots of foxes in it and this makes me happy! As soon as I saw it HAD to buy it
- The Japanese imagery is colorful, mystical and fantastic. In addition to foxes, there are powerful women, fairies, dragons and mermaids.
- The book offers tips for using the cards including how to shuffle. It also shares ideas for different oracle spreads and layouts
Things I don’t like about it
- The cards are on the larger side so can be difficult to shuffle but this still doesn’t take away from the beauty of this deck.
