This idea has been a long time coming to fruition, but I think I've hit upon a meaningful way to use the handful of oracle decks I currently own. I've commented elsewhere that oracle cards seem more "atmospheric" than pragmatic for the purpose of divination; in sports broadcasting terminology, they are more about the "color … Continue reading Mystical Motivations: A Weekly Meditation

Sacred Geometry Cards for the Visionary Path: A Deck Review
First off, I want to say that I bought this deck by accident. I thought I was getting Francene Hart's original Sacred Geometry Oracle deck, which has a "Frieda-Harris-synthetic-projective-geometry" vibe to it, and which I hoped to use in combination with the Thoth deck.

Kipper is a system of cartomantic divination … Continue reading Original Kipperkarten: First Thoughts
A Psycard Prediction Scenario
I recently received a set of Psycards, and have been eager to create a spread that makes specific use of their strengths. The deck contains several "archetype" cards (Father, Mother, Fool, Sage and Warrior) that can be put to good use in defining a querent's most advantageous approach to any matter of interest. There are … Continue reading A Psycard Prediction Scenario
