Good.juju
I was wondering if anyone know where I could get the first edition Starchild Tarot. It's a beautiful deck and would love to work with it but I haven't been able to locate it. Thank you.
I would recommend looking up a comparison vid on Youtube for the difference between the editions (there is one by Wild Moon Woman) but in my opinion the colour scheme for packaging of the first edition is more teal/blue/green while the second edition is more purple/pink.
They are like sister decks. The first edition was made for a 70s moonchild while the second edition was made for a galaxy print loving hipster - so obviously I love both of them
Many cards have been reworked for the 2nd edition, saturation has been altered, card backs are different etc. To me it seems the deck has two formats: one that reminds me of 70s rainbow motifs and one that is more spacey clouds. I would say that the first edition has more 70s rainbow designed cards while the second edition has more spacey designed cards. Plus I think the second edition has an "Akashic" card as it is the Akashic edition.
Don't quote me on this, but I feel like I remember reading on the forums that someone mentioned the creator had talked about doing a reissue of the first edition (maybe in traditional tarot size like she has done for the Akashic 2nd edition as the original 1st and 2nd editions were a bit larger oracle size cards). Might be just a rumor but I would love it if she did!
They are both beautiful decks though
