I finally got (well, it's at JD's house so technically HE got it) the much long-awaited Dust II Onyx: A Melanated Deck by Courtney Alexander and I cannot WAIT to get my hands on it.
If you haven't seen it, she's a brilliant artist: ![]()

I got three new decks at Christmas. The Modern Spellcaster's Tarot, which is beautiful and has Wiccan, gay, and poly imagery. The other two decks I got are Oracle decks, the Oracle of mermaids and Oracle of unicorns. I've been having fun with the decks. I've been pulling my daily cards from the Modern Spellcaster's. It has a good vibe and seems to be on point. |

OMFG!
So, my final report on the Dust II Onyx deck: THIS IS THE MOST BADASS TAROT DECK I HAVE EVER OWNED.S The artwork is even more stunning in person and the box is super amazing quality and has a magnetic closure. Inside is a HARDBACK book of card meanings and the book on its own is a work of art. The artist, Courtney, clearly put a ton of work into her research and the book is just beautiful and personal and high-quality. The cards are a nice size and are raised gold-leaf in some places. The colors are vivid and saturated beyond anything I've ever seen and basically every aspect of this deck is sumptuous and delicious and just beyond fucking amazing. If you have ever considered saving your coins for an extra-special deck, I cannot recommend this one enough. Courtney also has a program for her deck where you can donate to a fund to help women of color who are card readers be able to afford a deck. I feel that this may be the most important deck of modern time, both culturally and spiritually. I am moved beyond belief to be able to own it and learn from it. /gush
