The El Goliath Tarot was first self-published in 2018 by an artist known as Goliath.

I have the new and improved second edition, bought sometime after 2022, although I genuinely don’t remember

I’ve had my eye on this deck since before its official release and was so excited to look through the cards. I am embarrassed to admit it’s been sitting in the cupboard for about six months now.

Monica has previously created: The Shadowland Tarot, Shadowland Lenormand, the House of Shadows Lenormand deck, Between The Worlds Oracle, and Bats Blood Ink Oracle.
