Hi All! Although I have been reading tarot for quiet sometime, Oracle decks are somewhat new to me. I purchased the Isis Oracle after having someone use that deck on me, but it's been difficult to connect with. As beautiful as some of the guided meditations are, it's a very deep deck that I don't believe I am ready for yet. Does anyone have recommendations for Oracle decks that can help with self-healing and discovery? I want to focus on cleansing and releasing negativity, as well as increase my self-love. The Moon Deck has stood out to me as an option, but I'd love to learn about suggestions you all might have. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and I look forward to reading your suggestions! :) Happiest of New Year to you all!! |

I like The Celtic Oracle and The Celtic Shaman's Pack, both with books by John Matthews. The Shaman's Pack has illustrations by Chesca Potter, the Oracle by four (I think) different artists. The Enlightenment Pack by Chuck Spezzano is easy to use and can help to focus the mind but it's OOP and pretty expensive, and the artwork's not for everyone. The Oracle of the Radiant Sun has lovely cards created from old engravings etc. that have been coloured, but the system is astrological and fairly complicated. I guess that (like most things) what one connects with is very individual. I've enjoyed using all three of the sets above, but The Mystical Lenormand is a very friendly little pack (cheap and cheerful too) that I used to spend most time with. |

Just remembered The Druid Plant Oracle and The Druid Animal Oracle - large cards with well-written and informative books in the sets. Then there are the Rune Cards by Tony Linsell... |

blackthorn, there is an oracle deck of a very different kind that is very powerfully developed for self-discovery. It's called Lojong for the Layperson. See if speaks to you. It's creator is deep and thoughtful and used to be a frequent presence on Aeclectic before it shut down. |
