Getting to know these fascinating crows!
I've become a big fan of MJ Cullinane's work! I was first introduced to her Crow Tarot deck during a tarot class I was taking. I connected with her artwork and the look and feel of the deck immediately, and bought the corresponding book/journal as well. It's a helpful tool to use in conjunction with the tarot cards. A bit later I bought her Guardian of the Night tarot deck -- another favorite!My latest purchase is MJ's Urban Crow oracle deck. They have the same pleasant matte finish as her other decks, and shuffle easily. The card stock is a medium thickness and they just feel good in your hands. The artwork is beautiful and definitely recognizable as her style. I just received this deck last night, so I haven't spent any time getting to know them yet. However, I can see myself using them in conjunction with the Crow Tarot -- pulling a card at the end of a reading to close out a session.The enclosed guidebook gives a brief description for each word on the cards (i.e. Territory, Grief, Curiosity, Routine, etc.). I like that each entry also provides information about crows - their habits, traits, and mannerisms - and how that relates to the word on the card.I do agree with a previous reviewer who mentioned that the numbers on the cards are really unnecessary. They do detract from the look of the cards and the only purpose they seem to serve is that the guidebook descriptions are in numerical order. As stated, they could have just listed the cards in alphabetical order in the guidebook without the numbers. As far as I can tell, having the cards in order by their number doesn't seem to provide any logical narrative or story flow, as they do with the major arcana in tarot.I believe this artist is currently working on several new oracle/tarot decks. If the artwork and quality is similar to her decks that I already own, I can see myself adding them to my collection. Very happy with this purchase!

Fantastic Oracle Deck
I'm very pleased with the overall card stock quality, images, thickness, and feel of this deck. Very easy to shuffle. The included book is very easy to read and understand. I receive many compliments on it.

Cool Crow Oracle
I am enjoying the messages from this lovely deck. The art is both beautiful and insightful, with a nice guidebook. I am not experienced but have felt the messages have resonated for me. Love the crows!

Absolutely love these
OMG, I did not think of myself as a Crow deck person, but this oracle deck is spot on, I absolutely love it. I will need to purchase a second copy to have just for the overuse of this one. I use it daily so far, but I use a few daily in my research and divination learning. I love the cards.the paper quality is thick, the finish is nice, they do not stick together, because of the size of the card, it is a bit to shuffle, but no different than any other oracle deck/card. I will purchase again.

A new favorite of mine.
I was very drawn to this deck, it’s absolutely beautiful. The messages and the artwork are amazing. You can tell this deck was made with deep thought and love. Perfect along with tarot or alone. Easy to shuffle, and I love the size as well. I find most oracle decks a little too “positive” for me, but this one is thought provoking and realistic as a daily pull. It’s the oracle deck that I love to pull from to tie in with an end message after a tarot reading. <3

A really good oracle !!! Better than some tarot decks
Of the 4 “Crow decks” I know of, I gratefully have 3; Magick of the Crow Tarot, Murder of Crows Tarot and This, Urban Crow Oracle Deck. This is a nice lively Oracle deck. Typically, I am NOT a fan or oracle decks. I find them a bit pretentious lol. But, this one is good. It’s decent, the art is lovely, the cards feel true. I’ve rescued crows and other wild birds for decades and it does capture the essence of this animal. It is also a lovely made deck. The card stock is delightful, an oddly wide shape but whatever, stand out how you can. The art isn’t so far into the animal that it isn’t co-relatable (is that a word?!) to humans. I find it to be so. While I may not read with it on a professional level, I would say if one is drawn to it, they will not be disappointed at all. The reads are good. I will find that depth can be lacking in oracle decks, while I find that to be true, I sadly find. This to be better than most sibilant and most oracles. A step above some tarot and a step below some other tarot but certainly on a high level of oracle deck —I hope I’m making sense. I’m happy to clarify in any questions. I actually will answer them lol. Anyway 5 Stars a great oracle deck 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Great deck - beautiful illustrations
I love the deck and it is worth every penny. The artwork is amazing...I only wish there was an index showing what page he descriptions of each card is on so I don;t have to go leafing through the whole book to find it. Everything else about it is fabulous.

If you like Crows, these cards are beautiful!
These cards are beautiful. I love crows, but I wouldn't buy cards just because they featured crows if they weren't beautiful. Crows are dynamic creatures and the graphics emphasize this: Bold and colorful. The images and titles to the cards are very clear and you don't need the added booklet although the booklet does add to the description. The cards are sturdy and made of thick cardstock. I love these cards. Others have mentioned these cards only work using the Crow Oracle. I don't own the Crow Oracle and they work well with me as they are. 5 star purchase.
