Review by Psychic Morgana for The Animal Wise Tarot Rating:
I have been a professional Spiritual Consultant and Welsh Thaumaturgist for over twenty-five years and it’s extremely rare that I am impressed with a Tarot book and deck to the extent that I am with Animal Wise Tarot by Ted Andrews. The book alone makes a fascinating read but I have to admit that initially I avoided the cards due to the “artwork.” Psychic Readers in general seek a visual connection with the Tarot decks they use and I am more accustomed to cards that consist of hand paintings or drawings rich in subliminal and Spiritual symbology. Animal Wise Tarot, however, utilizes genuine photos of the vast array of creatures who reside in the animal kingdom – without any additional symbols or “hidden” meanings to explore.A while back I read a review on Animal Wise Tarot which stated: “Don’t be put off by the photos on the cards. This book and deck are uncannily insightful and accurate.” This prompted me to give them a trial run. Wow! Am I delighted that I did. I used a good friend who resides in another state as a guinea pig for my first “test” reading and both of us were amazed at the in-depth psychological analysis the cards provided into her husband, as well as the underlying dynamics of their marital union. We won’t be able to assess the accuracy element of the reading until more time transpires but I have a very good hunch it will exceed my expectations. I drew the Grackle as being representative of her husband’s current nature and was quite fascinated when my friend expressed to me that where she resides Grackles are abundant. In fact, her husband has taken notice of one in particular which seems to repeatedly cross his path. It is mentioned in the book that there is a relevant message for us when we run into a certain animal and the meaning of the Grackle (reversed) was definitely applicable to the emotional state my friend’s husband has been enduring. The more familiarized you become with the Animal Wise Tarot book the more intrigued you are by the concept that our beloved creatures have a wealth of knowledge and wisdom to impart simply by us studying their nature and relating said to our Inner Being and Outer Actions. Suffice it to say that I would absolutely recommend Animal Wise Tarot Book and the Deck, too, to everyone. However, the cards would be particularly beneficial to more advanced Tarot Practitioners because amazing readings can be accomplished by combining traditional Tarot knowledge a wee bit with the animal interpretations.

I ended up with this deck because it chose me. I went in looking specifically for a couple other decks that had caught my eye elsewhere. My eyes kept landing on it there were more bright eye catching decks there but I couldn’t see them only this one. I have learned in the past through mistakes that you can’t always fight the truth the decks can reveal. I fought long battles with my first deck thinking it couldn’t be right I was too new. It was. When this deck came in my life it helped me through a divorce and finacial difficulties telling the truth and giving me the hope to continue. I have since become closer to nature and more at ease with myself and the things around me. If you have a connection with nature and animals this is the deck for you. I have understood and been able to follow it’s guidance in unexpected ways. Everything just clicks. It has actually guided me into different ways to get my answers to some of my simpler questions.

I was very impressed with the Animal Wise Tarot as I have many of Ted Andrews books and his deck of tarot cards is truly a different way to do Tarot. It can also help you get in touch with the animal spirits/totems that are working in your life at the time you do your readings. This is a great deck to work with. Anyone who is interested in animal and wants more than just an animal oracle this is the one to get.

This is a wonderful tarot deck.I have also used Jamie Sam’s “Medicine Cards” which also uses animal archetypes, yet I found Andrews’ deck to be different enough to rationalize owning both.I have always enjoyed Ted Andrews’ work regarding magick and was excited to see he had published a tarot combining both.Upon purchasing this deck, I was NOT disappointed.As usual, Andrews’ work is terrific.”The Way of Animals” is not just another tarot deck.The cards are fairly simple photographs of various animals, but what makes this a wonderful set is the book. Andrews’ interpretations of the cards offer a new perspective on the tarot, which is an unusual thing considering all of the ho-hum — but pretty — tarot sets out there.This tarot is great stuff. If you love animals, or the tarot, don’t miss this one!
