If you are a fan of magic and want to add an original magic wand to your collection, you may be wondering where to find one. There are various places where you can buy original magic wands, both online and in physical stores. One option is to visit magic shops. These specialized stores often have a wide selection of magic supplies, including wands. You can browse through their inventory and choose the wand that appeals to you the most. The advantage of visiting a physical store is that you can see and feel the wand before making a purchase.

The deck gives flight to the Fool’s Journey through the Journey of the Sacred Bee. Divided into four phases that should be pretty familiar to anyone who’s worked with the journey aspect of the Majors: Consciousness, Society, Individuality, and Spirituality. Of course, every bee’s flight isn’t linear and I like that the creator makes this explicit and notes that our journeys are no less valid for making their own way through these phases.

Deck Review: Journey of the Sacred Bee Tarot, a 78-Card Tarot Journey

A brightly-colored deck full of bees and their medicine? Did someone say my name?

Now while I’m sure Kelly Burton wasn’t thinking of me specifically when she crowdfunded this amazing deck, in fact I’m pretty sure she was thinking about The Honeybee Conservatory to which a portion of the proceeds from the deck go. I still like to think the universe made a special effort to ensure I’d get a chance to work with it even though I missed the Kickstarter.

Look & Feel:

In terms of storage, it’s my favorite kind, outside of a tarot bag (which it comes with too, by the way): magnetic flip top hard box sized to fit the cards and not an inch larger with a helpful blue ribbon attached to help remove the cards from the box. The cards are wonderful to handle, a bit larger than usual at 5x3.09in. They don’t feel too big in the hand and shuffle like a dream. The matte cardstock is a bit thicker than your usual but not so thick that riffle shufflers will balk at it. Oh and did I mention the blue foil edges? Because there are blue foil edges, y’all. I gasped when I first saw them. The back of the deck is reversible with drawings of Sacred Geometry shapes and two bees lined in blue foil matching the edges.

The deck’s guidebook is its own little treasure. Sized to fit in the box with the cards, it’s not too bulky and doesn’t take away from the quality of the deck overall (a failure of so many other recent decks that prioritize the guidebook over card quality). It includes an accessible how-to for working with the deck, some insight into the Journey, a collection of useful spreads, along with the card meanings in both the context of the Journey and divinatory meanings for reflection. You even get a quick intro to sacred geometry and how it factored into the images in the deck as well as the dimensions of the cards themselves which reflect the Golden Ratio.

Imagery & Content:

Both the imagery and the keywords for this deck lean more Thoth than RWS, though both traditions’ influence is present. The art is done in a mixed media collage style with bright beautiful colors drawing the eye in and keeping your attention. It can be a bit much at first sight, but I love how it forces me to quiet down and look for the details in the card, like the young ivy plant growing at the bottom left of the Death card. If you love a good symbol hunt, and don’t we tarot readers all do, then you’ll enjoy working with this deck.

A good deal of the cards have sacred geometry embedded into the background, which I’ll admit I need to do more research on because I’m sure the choice of shapes included matters. Additionally the two top corners include a Hebrew letter (I’m thinking Kabbalic reference) and an astrological symbol which deepen the meaning, though once again I’m not as familiar with the Hebrew alphabet and so the astrology symbols are the only ones I include in my interpretation of the card. Though this is likely an influence of the Thoth tradition which works with Kabbalah systems (there’s more to be said here about the appropriation of Jewish spiritual technologies that I’m not versed enough to get into but I recommend folks do their own research on). One thing I did like was that the Courts included alchemical symbols to highlight elemental correspondences (ex: King of Swords as Air of Fire) which I find has enriched my work with the Courts. I’ve also grown to enjoy the addition of the phrase “Root of the Powers of [relevant Element]” for the Aces. I think it clarifies their meaning wonderfully.

The deck, no surprise here, primarily features bees so there’s not much to say about diversity. Most of the people included are white or look white passing or Hellenic statues, primarily found in the court cards. I did notice that The Lover’s card is queer which I of course adore. Still, not much to be impressed with or bothered about because people are really a minor character in this deck and the ways that color is used muddle that, which may or may not be intentional (not that it excuses the reality that even where few people are featured, the default in most tarot decks out there seems to overwhelmingly prioritize whiteness).

Additional Thoughts:

I wouldn’t recommend this as a first tarot deck. I see it as a deck to work with after building up familiarity with the tarot. It’s obviously not necessary to understand the Hebrew alphabet or Sacred Geometry, though obviously that along with knowledge of astrology and numerolgy will deepen your reading of the cards. The guidebook also provides some helpful insight into the images for most of the cards.

I do have to say that an affection for bees and the medicine they offer the world is a prerequisite for enjoying your work with this deck. Or at least an inclination to forming an affection for bees.

Remember, “no bees, no life!”

Where to Get Yours:

You can purchase and see more of the deck at the author’s site and at various indie small magic online shops like Phoenix and Lotus which is where I got mine (no affiliation just love). Follow along with Kelly Burton’s work with the deck and watch for new projects at their Instagram.
