Green Witch Tarot Deck & Book by Ann Moura, 78 Cards

Earth-based imagery you can act on. Each card ties its meaning to plants, animals, and the elements, so a reading naturally suggests a working: an herb to carry, a candle to light, a walk to take.

A full 264-page guidebook. Ann Moura's book goes well beyond keywords, with interpretations, spreads, and ritual ideas written in the same voice as her Green Witchcraft books.

Standard 78-card structure. Twenty-two Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana mean the deck reads like any tarot you already know, while looking like nothing else on your shelf.

The Green Witch Tarot is used for divination and for choosing everyday workings in green witchcraft, the earth-centered, largely solitary practice Ann Moura describes in her Green Witchcraft books. Green witchcraft is not a single lineage; it is a way of practicing that leans on the natural world (herbs, trees, animals, weather, the turning year) as both teacher and toolkit, and Moura's version draws on her own family folk practice.

You can use the deck the way a green witch uses a garden: as a place to ask a question and receive a living answer. A card that shows an herb invites you to work with that herb. A card that shows a season asks you to notice where you stand in the year. The guidebook gives interpretations and ritual suggestions for every card, so a morning draw can become an evening working. Over time, the deck teaches you the correspondences by use rather than by memorization, which is how most green witches learned them in the first place.

1. Read the guidebook's introduction first. Moura explains how she matched each card to the natural world, and that framing changes how every card reads.
2. Cleanse the deck with something green: a sprig of rosemary swept over the cards, a night on the windowsill under the moon, or a slow shuffle with your intention spoken aloud.
3. Draw a single card each morning. Note the plant, animal, or element on it, and carry that image with you through the day.
4. Use the guidebook's spreads when a bigger question arrives, and let the reading suggest a small working: a candle, a bath, an herb on the altar.
5. Keep the deck near your herbs. Green witchcraft is hands-on, and a deck that lives beside the jars gets read more often.

The guidebook is thorough, but the land is the real teacher. Trust what the cards point you toward.

• Green Witchcraft: Folk Magic, Fairy Lore & Herb Craft: 01 by Aoumiel: Moura's foundational book on green witchcraft, the practice this deck grew out of.
• Grimoire for the Green Witch: A Complete Book of Shadows (Green Witchcraft Series, 5) by Ann Moura: her complete Book of Shadows, for turning a card's suggestion into a full working.
• Green Witch Oracle Cards: Discover real secrets of Botanical Magick by Cheralyn Darcey: a smaller botanical oracle that pairs well for quick plant-by-plant pulls.
• Mugwort Cut, 1 oz (Artemisia vulgaris): the traditional divination herb, for a pre-reading smoke or a sachet kept with the deck.
• Tree of Life Altar Cloth, 36" x 36": a green reading surface that matches the deck's imagery.

What is the difference between the Green Witch Tarot and the Green Witch Oracle?

The Green Witch Tarot is a 78-card tarot deck with the standard Major and Minor Arcana; the Green Witch Oracle by Cheralyn Darcey is a smaller oracle deck without tarot structure. Choose the tarot if you want spreads and traditional card meanings; choose the oracle for quick botanical guidance and plant-by-plant messages.

Is the Green Witch Tarot beginner friendly?

Yes, the Green Witch Tarot is beginner friendly. The 264-page guidebook explains every card in plain language and includes spreads, and the nature imagery gives each meaning a picture you can remember. Because the deck keeps the usual 78-card structure, any beginner tarot book you already own still applies.

How many cards are in the Green Witch Tarot deck?

There are 78 cards in the Green Witch Tarot deck: 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana in four suits. That is the standard tarot count, so spreads written for any tarot deck, including the Celtic Cross, work here without adjustment. The box also includes Ann Moura's 264-page guidebook.

How do I cleanse the Green Witch Tarot?

Cleanse the Green Witch Tarot the green way: sweep a sprig of rosemary or a bundle of dried herbs over the cards, rest the deck on a windowsill under the moon, or shuffle slowly while speaking your intention. Repeat after reading for others or whenever the deck feels tired in your hands.

Do I need to be a green witch to use this deck?

No, you do not need to call yourself a green witch to use this deck. It reads as a full tarot for anyone, and the plant and animal imagery is welcoming rather than exclusive. If you are curious about earth-based practice, the guidebook is a gentle introduction on its own.

What is in the box?

The box holds the 78-card Green Witch Tarot deck illustrated by Kiri Østergaard Leonard and the 264-page guidebook by Ann Moura, with card meanings, spreads, and ritual ideas. Card dimensions are not listed on this page; ask us if you need them for a pouch or box.
