I love this card deck. I have owned a copy for just over a year now and its like I can feel the magic flowing from it every time I open her to use…especially at this sacred time of year (or in May, when the Southern Hemisphere celebrates Samhain).
I can energetically feel the weave of a sacred trinity of connection, created between Lorraine’s words, Juliet’s poems, and Giada’s illustrations. They have formed a powerful combination to teach you how to harness the energy of this celebration and implement some simple, yet powerful witchy ways into your life.
Another time these cards seems to call me to work with them is during the dark moon phase of the moon cycle. The dark moon phase is linked to the season of Winter and is such a powerful time for magic, rituals, letting go, and going within. This deck will absolutely support you during the dark moon phase as well.
My favourite cards thrown are card 39 “Transformation” - Like a thousand storms held in hands, soft against the winds, there is change rising from deep within.
And card 31 “Rebirth” - There’s death in all that awakens. For it isn’t blissful nor painless. It’s a mighty rising, of flame resurrected.
And my favourite card spread is the graveyard spread…just perfect for today’s reading as I sat in my circle of magic. 🪦
These card decks are available at Booktopia books, Amazon or through your local mind, body spirit store.
Big witchy love,
Nicci xx
