The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit Deck and Guidebook

I pre-ordered this deck, and couldn't wait to receive it!! Well, it has now arrived, and I am just as in love with it as I thought I would be! The art work is beautiful, and the cards feel lovely in your hands. It also seemed to resonate with me immediately... I started shuffling, and a card jumped out, no other than the lamb... an animal I collected little trinkets of for many years of my life when younger... It is like it was telling me it knew who I was :) I need to play with it more, but so far, I am so pleased I bought it. Perhaps slightly more lengthy descriptions would be nice? But it is a rather gentle (but honest!) deck for readings, and still a pleasure to use. I need to work on my intuition, more so, I think! My only criticism (which isn't a biggie) is that there isn't an index for cards, so trying to find the book's description for the card can be a bit haphazard (though I often opened the book up at the right page, oddly)... you have to find the element, then flick through the animals in that element until you find it. Oooh, another thing, some cards don't seem to be well aligned for the image in the card (larger white margins one side than the other). It doesn't bother me majorly, but may bother other owners. Not hugely noticeable, but worthy of note. (I'll try to add some images later) If you want a lovely, gentle, interesting, well illustrated deck for your collection, go for it :) it's nice to see animals rather than 'human' faces, and learn a little more about new species' and how it represents your life.

My cards arrived very quickly and I immediately opened them up. The box is luxurious and shines beautifully. The book is a great size and easy to follow, I found it very informative and could connect well to the meanings of the animal cards I pulled for myself. I looked at each card individually and was very impressed. It's like the rainbow version of the wild unknown deck and the egg cards are a really stunning addition to this deck. The quality of the cards are also amazing, I didn't find them sticky or too big to handle like some other decks I own. I really enjoy using these beauties and would recommend them to anyone looking for a beautiful deck of animal cards to go with their tarot collection.

The most beautiful illustrations, gorgeous quality and it makes for a perfect gift for anyone really!

Lovely cards. Good purchase

Absolutely love these cards another great Kim Krans deck to my collection

The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit Deck and Guidebook (Official Keepsake Box Set) is a gorgeous oracle deck. I’ve had mine for a while and still love it — the cards are beautifully illustrated, high quality, and feel amazing to work with. The guidebook is insightful and well-written, offering thoughtful meanings for each card. The keepsake box is sturdy and elegant too. A wonderful deck for animal lovers and spiritual readers alike!

After seeing lots of people use this deck on YT, I finally bit the bullet and plumped for my own deck. What a wonderful surprise! A lot of thought has gone into both its design and the meanings in the booklet. I love the simple, yet arresting images, it's muted but dramatic colours (not every deck needs to look like a Christmas tree) and the gorgeous silver edging and detailing like the ribbons, especially on the back of the cards. I can see why everyone loves Kim's work - it is really authentic and taps into both the shamanistic world of power animals, the world of yoga and the chakras, and the 5 elements of Greek natural philosophy without being pretentious or detracting from the dignity and majesty of each creature. Really worth the wait.

I ordered both Oracle and tarot deck from the wild unknown. Originally I wanted tarot deck even before it came out (I was waiting for it to be available!!!). Thats why I was quite sad to discover I can’t really connect with the tarot deck (not saying its bad, its beautiful deck, just not for me at this time). Fortunatelly I also ordered Oracle deck - and I felt instant connection!! Its really beautiful and amazing deck. Really well made, stock is quite solid. I like the fackt thats its matt. For me its really great to connect intuitively. The booklet is well made as well. Description may seem a bit vague but for me it simply grasp the most important message and leaves room for your own interpretation. I can only recommend it! Edit: my deck is from 2018; I felt the edit is needed because I’ve seen a few reviews commenting on bad quality of the stock

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.

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.
