U.S. Games is happy to announce the release of three new Tarot decks plus two new oracle decks for your holiday happiness.
The Cat's Eye Tarot by Debra M. Givin, DVM, is an unusual deck in that the author and artist is also a feline-focused veterinarian. The card meanings and numbering follow Rider-Waite interpretations, with reptiles, fish, birds, and mice replacing the usual suit symbols. Even the newcomer to tarot will be able to relate to these delightful images of cats and learn valuable lessons from them.
Then we have Jennifer Galasso's Crystal Visions Tarot. It combines her love of crystal balls with a nod to a famous rock-and-roll singer. The luscious card imagery also illustrates the elemental aspects of each suit in order to aid the novice in forming associations with the cards.
Joie de Vivre Tarot is the latest from Paulina Cassidy. It features her trademark fantastical creatures and eye for detail. Those who take a journey through this wondrous realm will rediscover their own child-like spirit.
And don't miss our latest oracle card decks!
The Woodland Wisdom Oracle deck by Rev. Frances Munro features artwork by the talented Fantasy artist Peter Pracownik. Elves and fairies share their Woodland Wisdom to help you move your life forward in positive ways.
Last but certainly not least is the Rae Hepburn's Tea Leaf Fortune Cards. Rae Hepburn, an accomplished tea leaf reader, teaches you to unlock the ancient secrets of reading tea leaves. Follow a few simple guidelines, and you can immediately read your fortune.
Here are some recent reviews and interviews. If you have reviewed any of these, please send that link to Stella at US Games. We would love to feature that here and on our Facebook page and our Twitter feed.

So which ones do you want? Leave a comment. We want to hear from you.
Already have the Tea Leaf Fortune Cards Oracle and Crystal Visions Tarot. The Tea Leaf Fortune cards look nice and are round which is goodly unusual, but from it's book, it sounds like a big complicated process using them. I could get the hang of it, I guess.
The Crystal Vision Tarot is great. The cards look even better then the scans of them and especially when they're all together! Quite something! I love their colorful backgrounds as well as their foregrounds. Makes me want to buy that Stevie Nicks album.
Thank you for introducing me to The Woodland Wisdom Oracle. Looks pretty cool and assuming there are enough cards in it, I'll be buying it soon. I'm a sucker for faeries. (There's no double-entendre intended in the last sentence, but now I feel self-conscious.)
The only deck I wouldn't get is the Joie de Vivre Tarot, because even though it's technically well done, I don't respond well to Paulina Cassidy's card artwork. They all seem they'd be better New Yorker cartoons then tarots. My loss, suppose, can't please everyone.
Thank's for showing a card from each and the boxes Good post!

Tarot joie de vivre looks very nice, I am just asking me if that tarot desk is easy to use or not.
For those who know tarot card reading it can be really nice to use.

The Joie de Vivre deck is a fun deck. I just used it this weekend 12/4/2011 at a small fair. It was easy to read and gave me some interesting leaps of insight. I don't use the LWB. I just go with what I see in a deck. By incorporating traditional meanings as my foundation, that allows me to know if a deck will work or not. The Joie de Vivre will be in my "decks to read with" bag. :)
