The Happy Squirrel
I do think picture cards -- oracles, tarot, reading cards -- are fantastic gateways for learning about different cultures. I have the Aussie Wildflower deck, and now the oop Oracle of the Dreamtime, and I'm learning very interesting myths to go along with the pictures. They're like anchors. It's not a very deep kind of learning, but the opportunity for it is there if I want to take it.
There's a Japanese mythology tarot that's on my wishlist too -- if only the shipping weren't so pricey.
I will say though there's not much to learn about Australian nature through this deck... unless you're already here and want to identify some plants you enjoy.
Haha, happy to help. [emoji106]
I am still using this deck daily. It's actually put tarot on the backburner, since I enjoy meditating and journalling with the larger cards so much. The keywords I find evocative. Another deck I've seen has trite stuff like "Man of the earth" ; .
Do you recall the name of the Japanese mythology deck?
As for trite, one of the reason I failed in my first attempt to like the oracle cards is that exact thing. A lot of trite titles and messages
