“I initially signed up for the Oracle Card Weekend because I wanted a weekend away. I didn't even know what Oracle Cards were but I didn't care, I was getting away and that was what mattered ! The magic of these cards has given me new personal insights, pushed my creative limits, and helped to foster new connections. One of the activities that help guide the weekend work is taking an archetypes test and finding out about yourself. I emerged as "The Fool", and to be honest it really bothered me. So, I got curious and did a bit of digging into the Fool and what this could mean about me. It ended up being such an interesting way of thinking about myself and the cards I wanted to create. I tried to think about the light and dark sides of the Fool, how I relate to them and how I could turn them into Oracle Cards. This deep personal reflective work is never easy, but I wouldn't trade these experiences for anything!!”

I had an amazing time at the Oracle Card weekend. While I was sharing with the group about my novel-in-progress, and the fact that the protagonist and her "antagonist" are both aspects of me (some known and some to be explored...) Katie suggested I make cards for my two characters. Wow! What a magical process. I won't say too much about my novel, but it does deal with the polarities of conformity versus authenticity, and self-protection versus courage (inner power). Through my novel, I'm hoping to explore how harmful we can be to others if we are focused on self-protection at the expense of unity and equality for all. Making the cards has deepened my connection with my characters and given me new insight into both of them. As much as I want to label one as stronger than the other, the truth is there is a negative and positive aspect to both power and protection. My hope is that my characters will both bring out strength in each other, and that the process will bring out the hidden strengths in me
