The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit Deck and Guidebook

I connected with this deck seamlessly, and so far my experiences have been rigged with insights. If you are an empath who can reach out to touch animal spirits in general, I say pick this up. The artwork is very symbolic and you'll learn to spot your own patterns and interpretations with time. I paid ~₹1700 for this at supposedly a '40% off' price but the MRP on the box was ~₹1900. A very disappointing gimmick by the sellers and Amazon. I recommend you ask relatives visiting abroad to pick this up for you rather than ordering it here until the price stated is corrected. All in all, I LOVE my deck and can't wait to have a lifelong association with it.

Simply wanna say wowww

Meh...that's how I feel about this deck. Cardstock is good - a litle thin, but holds up well to overhand shuffling. But I feel Krans has done a TERRIBLE job with the cards interpretations. Yes, I do respect her outlook, but I feel that with animal decks, we need to really consider the actual, realistic characteristics of the animal and use that as a starting point for our evaluation. Afterall, that's how cultural symbolism came into being. But Krans has made this deck very Disney-like. The interpretations are too shallow to hit the mark. Some of them don't even make sense since they don't even represent the animal's true personality - whether that animal is wild or captive. Yes, the artwork is gorgeous and if you like working with animal spirits, you can choose this deck. But is it really worth it for the almost ₹2000/- price tag? I don't know. Unfortunately, I didn't figure this out in time to return the deck. If you do decide to use this deck, please use your own intuition to study this deck and don't depend on Krans' explanations too much. Otherwise, you'll end up misreading and missing out on some really profound insights. If you really want a good deck that uses animal energy mindfully and can be doubled as a tarot and Oracle deck, I'd recommend Paulina Cassidy's Spiritsong Tarot.

Amazing , mind blowing cards and a very helpful book with it . You would immediately fall in love with the deck and the book

Grosse boîte, package à revoir selon moi car l'ouverture reste fastidieuse à chaque fois, on aimerait plus de simplicité. Le superbe entourage en gris métallisé en simple carton fin est à retirer autour de la boîte en le faisant glisser sur un côté... je ne sais pas s'il va durer dans le temps, attention à la première ouverture. Je souhaitais un jeu avec des animaux... Selon les graphismes, choix des couleurs et tout... je me suis finalement portée sur cet oracle même si je visais à la base un jeu plus doux, colorés, avec de beau dessins d'animaux... je n'ai pas trouvé quelque chose qui me convenait. J'ai acheté le tarot au même graphisme. La petite boîte à cartes est superbe en aspect reptile métallisé. L'univers tout en restant assez géométrique offre une certaine présence. Chaque carte a un impact fort du fait des lignes de fond notamment. Les touches de couleur pastel et pointillés adoucissent cet oracle. J'aime beaucoup la sobriété et le choix de la disposition, police etc, c'est un sans faute esthétique et harmonieux. Les cartes sont agréables, souples au dos sobre, légèrement plastifiées. Le livret est aussi bien conçu, rigide en étant souple (!), représentation de taille quasi fidèle à l'originale et petit texte en anglais (il devrait me permettre de peaufiner mon anglais au quotidien :) ). Il est en noir et blanc mais ce n'est pas très gênant au regard du jeu, je mets la carte colorée sur la page gauche en lisant le texte de droite (ce que la taille et la rigidité relative du livre permet). Le seul reproche est l'absence de sommaire, le livret est organisé selon 5 éléments... ok, après il faut feuilleter pour tomber sur le bon... heureusement c'est finalement pas trop long... je ne sais pas encore s'il y a une raison à ce choix au lieu d'un classement alphabétique à l'intérieur de chaque élément. Le petit texte est suffisant. Les messages reçus pour l'instant sont pertinents et inspirants/réconfortants. Je ne regrette pas mon achat, malgré le prix de cet oracle pour ce type de jeu. Les dessins sont fidèles, simples et surtout bienveillants. Animaux pris sur le vif, c'est un oracle qui vit et qui nous parle. Il nous parle de la vie, du changement inhérent, de l'adaptation, de notre lien à cette nature sauvage que l'on doit peut-être apprivoiser davantage. C'est un pas vers l'approche du vivant qui garde cependant en lui des forces mystérieuses et divines pour celui qui sait voir.

Very happy with my purchase! I just love the feel and energy of these cards. Their design and artwork being very unique with the black and white style and then pops of colour makes it a beautiful put together set of cards along with the accompanying book explaining each card individually! Highly recommended!

Beautiful deck and perfect box and guidebook. Amazing!

The material is incredibly resistant (I treat mine respectfully and with care); the book has some spreads and meanings(I try to search for more meanings and symbolism online), it has key words and how to work with blockage cards according to the booklet meaning. Animals are pictured gorgeously and with a very subtle symbolism. I tend to use it more to work with my energies and positiveness and sometimes as a clairvoyance tool(for insight I would recommend a Tarot deck). It comes with the 4 elements with Wiccan/Alchemic symbols(triangles) and Spirit cards for each one of the 7 chakras(each explained in the book) symbolized by it's animal form.

I've collected Tarot Cards & Oracles for years. To my utter delight, I ordered the Wild Unknown "Animal Spirit" deck, to go with The Wild Unknown "Tarot" deck & book & they are equally fascinating & deeply beautiful drawings. They truly add an extra dimmension, to the first deck, where I didn't think that would even be possible. They are very easy to use, lie beautofully in your hands. These beautiful decks & books have knocked my socks off ! They are absolutely stunning. I've used both quite a couple of times now & already, the accuracy of the cards is really jawdropping. The classic approach, yet new elements that Kim Krans brings to the cards, beckon & welcome you in. They are truly amazing! Quality of both books & cards is outstanding!! 10 stars! I've also gifted both decks, & Pocket sized tins, to a very dear friend - equally as happy as I am with them! L.B.
