This is the expanded deluxe edition of the Samhain Oracle by Lorraine Anderson and Juliet Diaz: 60 cards instead of the original 44, with 16 additional cards, five altar postcards featuring spells, and a card stand. The deck centres on Samhain, the Celtic New Year at the threshold between summer and winter, and the themes that come with it: ancestors, shadows, and the end of a cycle.
For those who approach Samhain as a serious ritual moment, this edition offers considerably more than the standard deck.

Most oracle decks sit on a shelf and get picked up at random throughout the year. This one is built differently: it is deliberately structured around Samhain, the point in the Celtic calendar when the boundary between the living and the dead is said to be at its thinnest. That is not a decorative choice - it is the foundation of how the cards are designed to work.
Lorraine Anderson and Juliet Diaz wrote the original Samhain Oracle together, which became a bestseller in its category. This deluxe edition is a fully revised version: 60 cards compared to the original 44, with 16 cards that were not part of the first release. The publisher has issued this as a limited edition.
The 60 oracle cards come housed in a black velvet box. The set also includes five altar postcards featuring spells and a stand to display a card upright. That last detail matters: the cards are intended as altar objects as well as reading tools. The box measures 120 x 75 x 160 mm and the complete set weighs 810 g.
Samhain falls at the end of October and marks the Celtic New Year, the close of the harvest season, and the beginning of winter. The cards work with the themes that belong to this time: ancestors, old stories, shadows carried forward, and the space between what was and what is yet to come. The deck can be used throughout the year, but it is clearly written for those who want to work with these themes around Samhain in a focused way.
This is not an all-season oracle with a seasonal theme added on top. Samhain is the content, not the packaging.
If you already work with the original 44-card edition and want the fuller set, this gives you 16 additional cards and a completely different physical presentation. If you are buying a Samhain oracle for the first time, this is the most complete version available. It is not an entry-level deck for someone brand new to oracle cards: the subject matter is specific and works best for those with some familiarity with Samhain as a ritual moment.
Lorraine Anderson and Juliet Diaz are the authors of the Seasons of the Witch series, which includes several bestselling oracle decks published by Rockpool Publishing. No further biographical details are available in the source material.
What is the difference from the standard Samhain Oracle?
The original edition contains 44 cards. This deluxe edition has been fully revised and contains 60 cards, of which 16 are new. It also comes in a black velvet box with five altar postcards and a card stand - none of which are included in the standard edition.
Can this deck be used outside of Samhain?
The creators say yes. The themes of ancestors, shadow work, and cyclical transition are relevant at any time of year. That said, the deck is most directly at home when used around Samhain itself.
