Mind Body & Soul Ezine Card Deck Review: Seeker Oracle by Ravynne Phelan, published by Blue Angel Publishing. Boxed set of 55 cards and accompanying Guidebook. Card size: 10cm x 15cm. £18.99
Sample reading: Choose Love - Love is the force that binds and connects, inspires devotion and a willingness to commit. We choose to view the world through a filter of love. There are countless reasons to fear, but we can only counter them with love. We acknowledge that there is bad in the world. It is impossible to deny that humanity and its impact on the world can be destructive. It is also impossible to deny that mother nature can be unforgiving. We must choose to focus on and highlight that which inspires feelings of wonder and awe and do what we can to nurture and protect the source of those feelings. Make a choice to choose love. Act with compassion, empathy, and kindness. Face the source of any pain, anger, or fear with love. Do not allow hurts feelings to make you hard or cruel. When we choose love, we choose with our heart not our head. Well there are times when we must gather the facts, weigh the pros and cons, and then make a logical and rational decision. There are also times when we must put logic and reasoning aside and follow the dictates of our hearts. Sometimes our heart speaks truer than our head. Our head might offer the most logical option, but our heart knows whether our decision is going to bring us joy or sorrow. Do what we love. Be loving. Don’t withhold love. Love harder. Give compliments, show affection, show interest, and be supportive. Our choice to choose love could transform our life and the lives of those around us. Make “I love you” a part of each day’s conversations, let others know how much we care. All the time. Do it even if it makes us, or them, feel uncomfortable.
I liked the unusual images, the unusual titles of the cards and the deeper than usual meanings of the cards. It’s a useful oracle that I am recommending. The Author/Artist, Ravynne Phelan, experienced depression and re found a love of art and colour that supported her recovery. She has a host of titles to prove her success in the spiritual arena. The deck includes a message from her about her journey with oracle and tarot card creation. She examines the meaning of seeking, exploration, research, and the quest.
This oracle has been designed to answer questions, and answer questions that lead to other questions and to provoke a reaction, maybe frustration, rejection or over-reaction. An emotional reaction needs further investigation. The meanings sometimes overlap, which is intentional. This oracle is best reserved for the self rather than reading for others, which it can do too, but the required self examination, and self determination to get the best from this oracle cannot be guaranteed when reading for another person.
There are no numbers on these cards. Spreads suggested are: One card ‘The Guide, 4 cards The Path of Intention, 9 card ‘The Seeker’s Spiral’. The deck can be used alone or in conjunction with another deck, such as Rider-Waite Tarot or Dreams of Gaia Tarot. You are invited to create a Seeker’s Journal as part of your progress with this Oracle. Also by Ravynne Phelan: The Messenger Oracle (One of my favourites too!)
