My picks for Tarot would be Motherpeace Round Tarot Deck by Vickie Noble. I actually recommend to get a deck, whatever deck size you'd like, but to get the larger book, because the teachings and understanding in her actual book contains a long history on women. To specify, the Motherpeace Tarot Deck actually recovers the positive, nurturing, peace-oriented values of the pre-patriarchal times and she brilliantly combines art and history and mythology and folklore and philosophy and comparative religion with an informed spiritual and feminist perspective, which is amazing. It is great for someone just starting out, who wants to learn how to throw say, one or three cards a day to get into practice, before actually throwing spreads.

Book $9.95, Book/Deck Set, $24.95

My recommendations for Tarot cards would also be the Aleister Crowley Thoth Tarot Deck, but the books that I would recommend to actually learn from regarding this deck would be the Tarot Handbook by Angeles Arrien, or Mirrors of the Soul by Ziegler, because it not only has the interpretation of the card, it also has affirmations and suggestions that are more of a very helpful manner for people to consider as a way of transformation for themselves.

Small Deck $15.00, Large Deck $18.00

A step up from the medicine cards would be, for me, the Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards, because they have a shamanic interpretation, but also they have some great poems and meditations from the Great Spirit to you, that are very healing and through those particular divination cards, I found that it was a beautiful way to be able to connect with the Divine through just pulling one or two cards a day.  It also goes into the tradition where the card and understanding came from as well, which is also very powerful.
