I got this deck of oracle cards and book set from my husband a few years ago at Yule. I like it for the beauty of the cards even though I have to roll my eyes at the extreme New Age claims that are associated with it. The 64 different cards each have a colorful geometric image supposedly acting as a "consciousness lens" that focuses light and subtle energy as vibrations. Got that? The cards contain "seed-forms" that when brought into the consciousness can be used for spiritual healing. Okay. Each card has two words of text that are intended to assist in opening us to the Love-Light, one is a basic meaning or "Old Earth" keyword while the other is a complementarity (is that a word?), a New Earth heightening toward the Love-Light. I want to point out that I realize that there are people out there who will be able to use this book and these lovely cards to meditate and to heal their traumatized cellular memory and to grow ever closer to Love-Light. Just because that sounds like nonsense to me doesn't mean that the virtues this set promises to possess are not true. It just means it hasn't manifested for me. I really think that if you seriously take time with this set you might be able to relax and thus find an inner quiet that can lead to positive things. Each card has a corresponding affirmation and explaination in the book and nothing but positive can come from the contemplation of these symbols and insights. I admit that I do not use this book or these cards for their intended purpose. I just look at the cards quietly and allow their beautiful colors and designs and vibrations to wash over me. I do find them relaxing but I don't pursue them intellectually in any way. I don't care about the book but you might. The cards ae pretty. That's enough for me.… (altro)
