Enchanted Forest Felines Tarot – A Whimsical Journey with Woodland Oracles
Step into a world where the sunlight filters through dappled oaks and every shadow hides a whiskered secret. In the Enchanted Forest Felines Tarot, cats act as your personal oracles, bounding through a lush, green landscape that feels both dreamy and vibrantly alive. This deck captures the true essence of feline nature—watching, stalking, playing, and pausing—allowing their intuitive body language to guide your readings through the ancient woods.
Step Into a Dreamy World of Feline Wisdom
The Enchanted Forest Felines Tarot is more than just a deck; it is an atmospheric experience. The artwork by Iva Dukić creates a mystical environment filled with soft light and tiny forest creatures scurrying in the background. While the cats are the stars, the entire forest speaks to the reader. It is a deck that feels gentle yet sharp, much like a cat’s claws, offering a playful yet profound perspective on the traditional tarot journey.
This set is beautifully presented in a unique box featuring a charming paw print cutout that reveals the guidebook beneath, hinting at the discovery that awaits inside. With 78 cards and a comprehensive 160-page full-color companion book, it is a complete toolkit for both beginners and seasoned readers who feel a kinship with the animal kingdom.
Nature-Inspired Symbolism and Familiar Structure
Rooted in the classic Rider-Waite-Smith (RWS) tradition, this deck remains highly accessible while introducing a fresh, nature-based symbolic language. The core structure remains familiar, but the elements have been transformed into objects found on a forest floor:
The four suits have been reimagined to fit the woodland theme: Swords become Dandelions, Cups become Saucers, Wands become Branches, and Pentacles become Mushrooms. Even the Court cards have been given specific feline identities to deepen their personality profiles. The King is represented by the sleek Bombay, the Queen by the elegant Egyptian Mau, the Knight by the sturdy Himalayan, and the Page by the playful Munchkin. These "anchors" allow you to read with traditional knowledge while exploring a new, whimsical landscape.
The Creators
Jen Sankey
Jen is a professional witch, author, teacher, and energetic healer with over thirty years of experience in tarot. Her deep understanding of the RWS system ensures that the companion book is not only informative but also a practical guide for placing these feline messages into the context of modern life.
Iva Dukić
Iva is an illustrator celebrated for her ability to build dreamy, mystical worlds. Her love for animals and imaginary landscapes shines through in every card, making each image feel like a small, magical window into a secret forest world.
Practical Use
Because it follows the RWS structure, this deck is perfect for daily draws, complex spreads, or storytelling readings. The imagery is highly narrative, making it easy to "step into" the card and see the situation through the eyes of the forest cats.
"To connect with a card, ask yourself: 'How does the cat look at this problem?' Note the first behavior you see—is it pouncing, hiding, or observing? This reveals the energy you need to adopt."
