John Matthews | The Shadow of Ecstasy | 5 Vessels

More than one Tarotist has commented on the unusual interpretation of the Five of Vessels (or Cups as they would be in a traditional tarot) which diverges from the general interpretation of this card in classic tarot. 

In fact, the reason for this springs from a desire to follow the journey of the Wanderer (The Fool) through the entire deck, and to acknowledge the experiences that he/she (our Wildwood Fool is non-gender specific) encounters along the way. If we explore the ‘story’ underlying the suit of Vessels we see how this works.

 scans of the card, not the prints themselves

The Wildwood Tarot prints are proving popular so artist Will Worthington has created a second run of prints!  In addition to the existing designs, he has added The Wildwood's Queen of Bows and The Ancestor.

PLUS the Arthur and Merlin images from the Camelot Oracle are also now available in this range of fine art prints!

Wildwood Tarot | New Edition

Please note that there is a revised edition of The Wildwood Tarot about to become available!   This exciting development features a new design on the card back and additional copy in the accompanying book.

The new card design, pictured here, is suitable for reading with reversals.

The additional copy in the accompanying book adds more information for the Wildwood Tarot's Court Cards.

The cardstock and box remain unchanged from the original printing, so, at the moment, there is no clear way to tell whether a boxed set is the original or the new updated version.

Caitlín Matthews | Reversals Part 2

How do you gauge which level of reversal to apply to a reading? This may be clearly visible from within the context and from being with the querent you are reading for.

EXAMPLE 1: Here is a three card reading for a man asking about his tour company which has been very hard hit in the recession: he wants to know what he’s doing wrong. He draws Queen of Bows reversed, 15 Death reversed, Six of Arrows. He feel’s he’s been too generous in his ideas which are now working against him. He’s not been taking up the challenge of recession and now he’s stuck in a stagnating business rut. We see that the man is his own worst enemy but that he’s aware of the problem: the reversals are on the gauge of between abating and restrained. He’s seen the writing on the wall and has been hitting the blockages enough to know it’s time to more on. The 6 of Arrows says ‘move away from here.’
