Under-rated Oracle Decks

BodhiSeed

Do you know of an oracle that you love to use, that gives you good readings, yet there's not much talk about it? Perhaps it is overlooked because it has simplistic artwork or because it's a bit hard to find. I've used two oracles in the last couple of weeks that I love that aren't talked about much:

"Vertical Oracle" by Antero Alli and Sylvie Pickering:

and

"Rune Cards" by Tony Linsell and Brian Partridge

So what are your most under-rated oracle decks?

I think they all are under-rated, Oracles are an awesome way to let the inner reader out of the box.

I've used a lot of them over the years on my blog, and if I could only keep one it would be the Tibetan Oracle by Stephen Skinner. Lots of fun to use, complicated enough to to keep me interested. One day when I have more time I may even set up shop and do these for big bucks. They are time consuming!

My second favorite would be bibliomancy, out of any book at hand.

I've had those rune cards in my cart for at least a year...so far resisting~

Don't look at them too much or your resistance may slip...})

Rune Cards! I am currently waiting for mine. I was drawn to them since a while now, I can't wait to get them.

This depends a lot on whether we are taking about being unreadable or just having bad art or images that don't inspire

I suppose the majority of oracle decks are under rated compared to Tarot, if not all of them, but one of the most under rated of them all must be the one I've been using recently, The GaiaStar Codex

Or another one which I've never heard mentioned on here which is a lovely deck is the Animal Messages. the only thing I don't like about these is the writing on them, just the names of the animals would have done nicely.

I was referring to an oracle that you love to use, that gives you good readings, but that there's not much talk about.

I had the GaiaStar Codex, loved the artwork, but had a difficult time reading with it, so I gave it away.
That Animal Messages one does look lovely though!

It is difficult to get to grips with because IMO the book is poorly written but the one thing I do like about it is the way it makes you use your mind and use your intuition

It is lovely and only £2.10 NEW through one of Amazon's sellers, so that's got to be a bargain if you like that sort of thing.

Personally I love it, BUT I don't like cards with little verses on the front, it takes the reading from you and puts it there for the person you are reading for.

I love my oracles so I have quite a few I use alot that people don't talk about much. I completely agree about the Animals Messages! Wonderful animal deck.

But also the deck we're using for the traveling faeries this time is amazing....The Fairy Pack by Claire Nahmed

The Lemurian Fortune Cards are very different and give great readings.

And the Oracle of the Grail Code was talked about for a while. I think I started the thread.... :p ....but then nobody has said anything more. It's an amazing deck.
