✦ card and jewel description ✦
Oracles are an opportunity to enter dreamtime, and cards as an aid in seeing and meditating have long been part of my personal practice. The arcane symbolism, fool’s journey and deep archetypes of Tarot play an important part but these things are a language. In order to process without words, to feel what’s underneath the constructs of thought and maybe connect with source I find oracles to be useful and beautiful tools. Softer decks are able to adapt to the questioner and do not deliver messages with the severity of Tarot. Both have their place.
(On a more down to earth note, cards are a wonderful and affordable way to collect art and this deck is fairly kid friendly. A tangible item to ground with and leaf through in the (doom)scrolling era.)
Drawn and painted on paper with zero AI involvement. The deck features curated images from past work as well as new art, exclusive to the deck. Themes, colours and vibe revolve loosely around water. Nurturing powers of flow and observation without reaction is crucial to being okay in our current wilderness and I believe water element can help and soothe.
I felt inspired to create a hand carved piece of jewellery as a companion piece to the cards. (Limited edition, available here in shop)
