Today we're going to explore what it means to work with an oracle card pack and feminine healing.
I've been utilizing oracle cards for the last decade for myself and for the women who have come into the spaces that I've created with them.
Sometimes that's in circles,
Sometimes that's just between the two of us.
And I've seen the profound impact that an oracle card can have on a woman on their journey.
There are many oracle packs available.
They are created by artists,
They are created by writers.
Oracle card packs really come down to choice and preference of the person who's purchasing them.
Look at the cards,
Decide whether that card feels like it resonates for you,
Because you can look at these cards and sometimes they don't resonate.
They might be too spiritual,
Too spiritual in their writing,
Or they might not be the kind of card that you would aesthetically be drawn to.
I've brought some cards with me today so that we can look at some options that I use for myself.
We're going to start with Mother Witch.
This pack came out more recently,
Maybe in the last couple of years.
It's written by Bat for Lashes and it's a really beautiful pack that is quite witchy and allows for an exploration around motherhood and witchiness and it's still a pack that I'm connecting to as I've been using this now for about a year.
Another pack I utilize is the Inner Compass.
It's simply one word,
One feeling,
One sensation per card.
This one is an animal pack so it's simply the animal spirits of the world and you can pull a card and look at what the animal represents that you pull.
And then another one which is quite a famous pack is by Rebecca Campbell which is Work Your Light and is quite spiritual in its writing.
The definition of an Oracle Card Pack is simply this.
It's a card that has some kind of meaning attached to it and you can then utilize that meaning within your own healing journey.
It is different to a tarot card pack.
A tarot card pack has a journey that you go on.
You often pull more than one card and within those cards they tell a story.
This means that you have to have some level of understanding around what that card represents,
Whereas with an oracle card pack it's completely interpretive to you and your journey and where you are.
Bye.
The best way to do it is simply to find a pack that you resonate with.
Buy it or sometimes they are in charity shops in the UK for example so you can often find them in places cheaper.
And then you allow yourself to work with that pack.
Work with it by lying them out,
Shuffling them,
Picking a card that resonates with you by maybe moving your hand over the top of them or maybe feeling into the intuition of well this is a card that I would like to be with today.
Look at the card,
Explore the card and then you can journal on it or you could literally just sit and reflect on it.
Once you've pulled a card and you feel like you've connected with it then you can reflect back on it as often as you need.
Sometimes you could pull a card weekly,
Sometimes daily,
And you allow yourself time to reflect on the words that have come up from that card.
Maybe those words come from deep inside you,
Or maybe those words come from the guidebook that accompanies the packs often and gives you more information around why that card was created in the first place by the artist.
How this then helps with your healing journey in the feminine,
It allows you to pick a pack that is feminine in itself,
Pull a card as and when it resonates with you,
In ceremony,
Returning back to yourself,
Returning back to your breath,
Returning back to your rooted space,
Being with your own self in silence just for a moment.
You lie out the pack,
Spread the deck,
Pull a card,
Reflect on the word,
Even if it's only for a moment or two.
This gives you time to connect in with your feminine self,
The thoughts that arise,
The feelings that can come up from just being with a card and allow yourself to tune into the greater,
Bigger,
Cosmic opening that that card might bring.
It might not mean anything in that moment but it might mean something later down the line or it might resonate with you so deeply that you need time to reflect on it for longer.
I know that this is a really beautiful tool to refer back to and I really hope that this information gives you something to work forward with.
Much love.
