Bodhiseed Posted August 4, 2025 Posted August 4, 2025 Thank you Fire cat! I'm in this week with the Anima Mundi Tarot paired with the Nature's Pharmacy Deck. Posted 21 hours ago Anima Mundi Tarot, Hanged Man; Nature's Pharmacy Deck, Common Sage When you’re full of beans, you just blow a lot of hot air. —Amy Tan Roombas often react saner than humans; when they hit a wall, they turn around and go in another direction. We tend to find ourselves giving the same advice over and over or forcefully trying redirect a situation in the way we think it should go. It's frustrating to realize we have no control, but there is freedom and peace found in letting people and things be. Common Sage has been considered one of the top essential culinary herbs for generations. It is also a digestive aid, relieving gas and bloating. There have even been studies to add this herb to cattle food in an effort to reduce methane (a greenhouse gas). Sage asks us to reconsider if our 'help' is tinged with a hint of moral superiority, filled with platitudes, or if it is simply a strategy to arrange things in a way that would benefit us. Others can generally tell if we're sincere or full of beans.
Rachelcat Posted August 4, 2025 Posted August 4, 2025 Hi, all! This week I’ll be test-driving The Cinderella Deck, recommended in my fairy tale deck thread by @katrinka. It’s 29 poker-sized cards made from illustrations of a Cinderella storybook from 1921. Since we all know the story, it should be easy to relate the episodes of the story to the situation we’re reading for. The creator has provided a pdf lwb with ideas for each card just in case. I’m not sure if it will work best with spreads or more with lenormand lines . . . Let’s give it a try with a shortened interview first. What is your strength? The page brings the invitation to the ball The deck is an invitation to a truly different reading experience. Your weakness? Despair The deck has quite a few negative cards considering how few cards in total. What can you teach me? Stepsisters primp The deck can give me an accurate reflection of myself and my issues, even if it’s not flattering. What will be the outcome of our work together? Fairy godmother’s final appearance When the week is over, the deck will continue to have a fun positive influence on me.
Madame Squee Posted August 5, 2025 Posted August 5, 2025 Hi @fire cat pickles Please sign me up with the Joker Tarot. It's new, and I'm really surprised how much I like it.
fire cat pickles Posted August 5, 2025 Author Posted August 5, 2025 Welcome back @Madame Squee 🙂 How long has it been? The DoW Group is a fun and enlightening way to share how your decks can work for others, to highlight new or unique reading techniques and spreads, and perhaps to introduce new decks for other members.
