Though I’m very aware that certain Tarot cards link to particular health issues and parts of the body, I’ve never really paid all that much attention to the physical side of divination in terms of health, that was until I encountered ‘The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards‘ earlier this month.
Good health is vital and allows for the proper flow of energy and better results both within life and according to TJ Perkins, the author, and creator of The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards, within “your magick”.
First published in April 2023 by Red Feather, The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards are a thirty-three-card oracle deck designed by TJ Perkins and illustrated by Jennifer Amazon.

Jennifer Amazon is an illustrator with a particular love for fantasy and children’s imagery – she believes that her pencil is her magic wand!
Packaging & Presentation
Packaged and presented in a stylish, sturdy, tin featuring a beautiful black apple and red writing. The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards come cased in a lovely lime green tin ideal for display, storage, and travel purposes.
The Guidebook
The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards arrive with an eighty-page, colour-printed guidebook that includes a clear contents page, an introduction, a short guide to spreads, information on the author and artist, and a double page on each and every one of the cards, identifying their meaning, relevant exercises, magical associations, and a colour picture of the card itself.
The Cards
This thirty-three-card oracle deck is printed on matt card with plain white edging, featuring lime green card cards and various watercolour-style imagery with bold green borders, and clear labelling, titling, and numbering for each card.
Reading & Working with The Healthy Witch Oracle
I’ve spent the past fortnight reading and working with The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards and whilst I’ve tried using these cards just as an Oracle deck alone, I have found that I prefer to combine them with my daily Tarot spreads as I feel they offer further information and insight to my regular readings.
I am rather fond of the cutesy, colourful imagery used in this Oracle deck though I noticed very quickly that the artist is obviously keen on mushrooms and toadstools as they seem to feature heavily throughout the cards.
Though this isn’t a deck that I feel I will use on an everyday basis, I will most certainly reach for these cards should I require further information or guidance on specific health matters and issues as the cards are very clear, concise, and easy to understand.
Shuffling Through The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards
In order to further illustrate and explain the Healthy Witch Oracle Cards I have put together a video walkthrough guide.
Purchasing & Pricing Information
The Healthy Witch Oracle Cards are available to purchase online via Schiffer for $19.99 or within the UK via Gazelle Book Services for £18.99.
To Summarise
Suitable for readers and all ages and abilities, the Healthy Witch Oracle Cards is a small but very sturdy deck focused on mental and physical health issues and matters. Whilst I admire the artwork and the intentions of this deck I feel it is very health orientated and thus is best when combined with alternative divination methods and tools such as Tarot.
