In 1994 Stephanie and Philip Carr-Gomm, Scribe and Chief of the Order of Bards Ovates & Druids, together with artist and Pendragon of the Order, Will Worthington, combined their talents and knowledge to produce
The Druid Animal Oracle.
Now, a decade later, in The Druid Craft Tarot, they have joined together again to create a stunningly beautiful deck.
The exquisitely designed cards, painted in tempera, using egg yolk and ground minerals, achieve an extraordinary depth of feeling and artistic quality, while the accompanying manual explores the earliest roots of the Tarot in the tales of the Bards and the numerology of Pythagoras taught by the Druids in their Sacred Groves. As the meanings of each card are explained in the book that accompanies the deck, we explore the significance in our own lives of the common theme of both Wicca and Druidry: a reverence for the Goddess and God and their union, which gives birth to the world of Nature.
"I wanted to tell you and Philip and Will Worthington again how much the
Druidcraft Tarot delights me and others. I had really only looked at the cards
but am now reading more and more of the handbook. The commentary is
brilliant - and I don't mean this in the usual everyday British use of 'brilliant': 'this
candy bar is brilliant, etc.' I mean it is truly full of light, and light
which sparkles and shines in dark places." S.F. Boston
