"Celtic Goddesses, Witches, and Queens is an apothecary full to the brim with enchantment, wisdom, comfort, and sound guidance. Clearly a labour of love, Forest and Goodfellow have combined their formidable talents and knowledge to create a multifaceted contribution rich in symbolism, authentic background lore, and lushly evocative illustration. This oracle deck is an outstanding achievement that deserves pride of place in every collection, and indeed, the deck I have been waiting for."

- Danielle Blackwood, author of The Twelve Faces of the Goddess, and A Lantern in the Dark,

“Celtic Goddesses, Witches, and Queens Oracle is a wonderful combination of exceptional art and a thorough guidebook, making it an ideal divination option. The imagery is vibrant and evocative, allowing the cards to speak on their own, and the guidebook is a perfect compliment, expanding on the imagery and offering more depth to each figure. This deck could be used for various forms of divination but could also be an ideal devotional tool, helping people connect through story and prayer. The best option I've seen for this subject."

- Morgan Daimler, author of Gods and Goddesses of Ireland and Irish Paganism,

"From the moment I learned that this collaboration between Danu
Forest and her husband Dan Goodfellow was in the works, I was breathless
with anticipation to work with this deck. Danu is a wonder of a wise
woman and scholar whose dedication to the divinities of Britain and
Ireland is deeply rooted in academia, informed by tradition, and
enlivened by lived practice. Dan is an incredibly gifted artist whose
Awen shines through in all of his work, and especially so when it comes
to his nuanced and inspirational depictions of the Goddesses featured in
this powerhouse of a deck."
