Editorial Reviews

"Celtic Goddesses, Witches, and Queens is an apothecary full to the brim with enchantment, wisdom, comfort, and sound guidance. Clearly a labour of love, Forest and Goodfellow have combined their formidable talents and knowledge to create a multifaceted contribution rich in symbolism, authentic background lore, and lushly evocative illustration. This oracle deck is an outstanding achievement that deserves pride of place in every collection, and indeed, the deck I have been waiting for."

Danielle Blackwood

"From the moment I learned that this collaboration between Danu Forest and her husband Dan Goodfellow was in the works, I was breathless with anticipation to work with this deck. Danu is a wonder of a wise woman and scholar whose dedication to the divinities of Britain and Ireland is deeply rooted in academia, informed by tradition, and enlivened by lived practice. Dan is an incredibly gifted artist whose Awen shines through in all of his work, and especially so when it comes to his nuanced and inspirational depictions of the Goddesses featured in this powerhouse of a deck."

Jhenah Telyndru

Celtic Goddesses, Witches, and Queens Oracle is a wonderful combination of exceptional art and a thorough guidebook, making it an ideal divination option. The imagery is vibrant and evocative, allowing the cards to speak on their own, and the guidebook is a perfect compliment, expanding on the imagery and offering more depth to each figure. This deck could be used for various forms of divination but could also be an ideal devotional tool, helping people connect through story and prayer. The best option I've seen for this subject."
