Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Sibilla Reading 12-19 May 2026

Hey everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading! For this week's reading I'm using I Misteri Della Sibilla by Ettore Maiotti Copyright 1982 Dal Negro All Rights Reserved, Oracle of the Mermaids by Lucy Cavendish and Selina Fenech Copyright 2013 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved and  Mermaid Tarot by Leeza Robertson and Julie Dillon Copyright 2019 Llewellyn Publishing All Rights Reserved. 

Without further ado, let's see what I Misteri Della Sibilla forecasts for the upcoming week ahead:

A period of stress and insecurity has brought forth a lack of inspiration until the end of difficult period heralded a crucial message that was delayed. A solution is ready after experiencing disappointment and you will finally be able to have good luck and success going forward. Any negative thought-forms were due to a poor judgement call that can easily be rectified and you will be introduced to someone who can help find a solution to your current predicament. Even if it requires a bit of patience on your end. It will be worth it. Just hang in there a little while longer.

Moving on to the Oracle of the Mermaids:

Use this week to create something worthwhile and bring new energy to spark a positive shift in your life of the better. Take care of your physical and sexual health. Allow yourself to experience pleasure whilst remembering to hydrate yourself, getting exercise (whatever that looks like to you) and eating healthy (especially, making sure you get enough fibre/fiber). As these will help you feel invigorated and prevent illnesses wherever possible. Allow yourself to change and evolve as your circumstances change. Be open to trying something outside of your comfort zone. It might just be exactly what you are looking for. Breath life into what you create so that it can be use to inspire and potentially even benefit others over time (obviously not at your expense but to your benefit as well). Stay consistent whenever possible to ensure the best results. Do something to give back to nature. Such as participating in a clean up project at a park, at the beach, in the ocean or planting (non-invasive) trees (or other plants) that will benefit the land around you.

Finally, let's see what the Mermaid Tarot has to say to wrap up this reading:

A painful mistake made prompted a call for open and honest conversation about one's lack of confidence in what they do. You will need to continue putting in the effort in what you do so that you can have more leeway into putting your own new creative spin on it. Finish what you start. Be honest, articulate and compassionate with not only yourself but with others you happen to collaborate with even if they aren't the most ideal or had caused issues and disappointments in the past. Going forward you need to have more realistic expectations, get out of your head and go at your own pace. No need to rush.

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Il Vostro Destino Reading for 3-10 May 2026

Welcome to another weekly reading! I am writing this blog on the day before my birthday. How exciting! (3 May 2026)! For this week's reading I am using the Shaman Tarot by Massimilliano Filadoro and artwork by Sabrina Ariganello and Alessia Pastorello Copyright 2010 Lo Scarabeo All Rights Reserved, Mermaids and Dolphins and Magical Creatures of the Seas by Gilliam Kemp, artwork by Jacqui Mair and the borders designed by Emma Garner Copyright 2018 Cico Books All Rights Reserved and Il Vostro Destino Copyright Masenghini Bergamo All Rights Reserved.

Let's get this week started off with the Shaman Tarot:

There was a period of self-reliance and financial stability thanks to a contract, offer or collaboration with someone or a group of people that made it possible to make more money. Now you have made your choice you are now able to address the lack of teamwork that is causing everyone to work independently and in an unconventional manner. This will bring you a much-needed fresh start that will require you to take decisive action or will lead to confusion, a lack of money or becoming sick. Don't be too reckless with your time, money and resources of it will come back to bite you later. Impulse control is necessary to circumnavigate these potential stumbling blocks so it doesn't negatively impact your life later on.

Now let's move on to the Mermaids and Dolphins and Magical Creatures of the Sea Oracle:

You will have something to celebrate and perhaps get the opportunity to go on vacation/holiday through the efforts you made to reach a specific goal or dream and now it's being realised in real time. Let this success give you the insight to know that delayed gratification will ultimately be more beneficial and help motivate and inspire you to overcome whatever obstacle you are currently facing. You know what you are capable of so don't underestimate yourself when you could use some extra help, education or tools to help you get to where you need to be. Celebrate how far you've come even if you still aren't where you want to/need to be yet. You will eventually get there so don't give up. If it is too difficult then change your approach, delegate tasks to those who can do what you are unable to and be willing to open to new possibilities that you didn't previously know where available to you.

Finally, let's wrap this reading up with what Il Vostro Destino's forecast for this week:

A misunderstanding with a condescending woman concerning beneficial help being received because of problems in the workplace and in their personal life that has motivated them to make changes to their current situation through finding a resolution to a current issue. This will lead to receiving good news, having an unexpected visit from family, friends or acquaintances but it comes with various inconveniences because of long delays or difficult tasks needing to be taken care of before you can actually take the next step.

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Lenormand Reading for 27 April-04 May 2026

 Hey everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading. For this week I'm using decks that exclusively use the artwork of the amazingly talented Ciro Marchetti: Oracle of Visions Copyright 2014 US Games Systems Inc All Rights Reserved, Tarot of Dreams by Lee Bursten Copyright 2015  US Games Systems Inc All Rights Reserved and Gilded Reverie Lenomrand: Expanded Edition Copyright 2017 All Rights Reserved.

Let's get started with what the Gilded Reverie Lenomand: Expanded Edition forecasts for this week:

There was concern about your health (or a man in your life's health). This is forcing you to take a risk causing burdens because a difficult decision must be made. Going forward, you will be able to express yourself openly and honestly with someone with a strong personality affectionately. A risk to your health needs to be addressed alongside your uncertainty about your love life. A contributing factor to this is what you an important decision you make will require you to be strong (ex: setting firm boundaries with others). Theme for this week: Healing will make you (or a man in your life) feel stronger. Overall, a risk creating uncertainty is due to a burdensome separation.

Let's move on to the Oracle of Visions:

Develop your skills and be willing to learn and continue to strengthen your skills and talents so that you can use what your education to obtain a new job, a promotion or open opportunities that reflect what you have to offer to the world. (ex: presenting your offerings at an event, birthday party, wedding, convention, etc) But you first must free yourself from barriers holding you back mentally (ex: detrimental mindsets), physically (ex: taking care of yourself and allowing yourself to recover properly), and spiritually (ex: cord-cutting, psychic protection, hexing, binding, cursing, etc) or you are going to find yourself trapped in a repetitive cycle that will stop you from getting what you know you deserve because you've put the effort into it. Don't underestimate yourself and pursue it even if you may not be 100% ready and you've be surprised what's available to you.

Finally, let's wrap up this week with the Tarot of Dreams:

A disappointment lead to a decision being made with a clear mind but it came with pushing yourself too harsh (both physically and mentally) to the point where you either gotten sick or got close to getting sick. Now you need to focus on making more time for yourself and holding others accountable who rely too heavily on you. This is especially true when it comes to a situation that you've completely lost control of and now you had to be honest about your limits are and be willing to accept the consequences from the aftermath of the situation. You need to unpack something that is affecting you on a subconscious level and bring it to the surface. Put yourself in an environment that will allow you to clear your mind and allow your thoughts to flow freely. Whether that's through journalling, meditation, doing shadow work, recording your dreams after you wake up, through an art project or whatever will allow you uncover these messages so that they can guide you where you need to be. Beware of reckless spending, friends who don't have your back or are only using you for their own benefit and those who only show interest in you for the sake of a one off sexual hookup rather than a romantic relationship. If you have been waiting for someone to get back with you this week then you will hear back from with an answer. Whether or not this is positive or negative will depend on you and your specific circumstances. This could be feedback with criticism followed by the appropriate action being taken for better or worse.

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Vera Sibilla Reading for 21-28 April 2026

Hey everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading! For this week's reading I'm using the Llewellyn Tarot by Anna-Marie Ferguson Copyright 2006 Llewellyn Publishing All Rights Reserved, Oracle of the Mermaids by Lucy Cavendish and Selina Fenech Copyright 2013 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved and La Vera Sibilla Copyright Masenghini All Rights Reserved.

Let's get this week started off with the Llewellyn Tarot:

A difficult choice being made lead to a continuing of positive movement forward but there was a deception impacting your current situation. This is currently causing having second thoughts and not being able to complete a crucial task. This is going to cause a sudden and unexpected change to occur that will force you to reevaluate where you are and move forward in a more constructive manner. There will be messages of support from friends, family or from a licensed professional (ex: therapist) (either on social media, through text messages on your phone or even through a phone call or email). With that being said, don't let someone's harsh words or your own personal shortcomings stop you from having open and honest communication where needed. Follow the advice of a trusted individual or at the very least trust your intuition to guide you in the right direction. Be willing to see things from others' points of view and forgive them for what they've done to wrong you. (Assuming they are worthy of your forgiveness. If you can't forgive them then enforce a strong boundary with them going forward.) 

Moving on to the Oracle of the Mermaids:

You are not able to express who you are and that is causing an internal conflict within yourself and how others perceive you. What's holding you back from being your true self with those around you? Is it a safety issue? Are you afraid that people won't like you if they discover this specific aspect about you? Surround yourself with people you can trust and know will have your back even when you are faced with an issue that is humiliating so that you can get the support you need to deal with it. You do not have to do it on your own. This is also impacting your ability to see what's going on around you. People's words are not matching up with their actions and this deception is causing chaos and suffer ing in your immediate space. You need to pay close attention to the red flags around you so you can get out a terrible situation before it gets worse and being forced to deal with the aftermath of it. Let your intuition be what allows you to easily spot a potentially dangerous situation and remove yourself from it before something bad happens to you. Observe those around you. What are they saying versus what they are doing. Is there a contradiction there? If there is then let this be the sign you need to leave immediately and not look back. Your privacy also seems to be of great concern to you. Are you taking all the necessary measures to keep your personal information safe from others? (Ex:VPNs (Virtual Private Networks), using sites like Icogni to get opt-out of databroker websites and keeping all your information private and secure to prevent yourself from being swatted or doxxed.) Make you take time for yourself without interruptions from anyone. This will allow you to have time for yourself without feeling like you're exposing yourself to the world. Reset your social battery and let yourself rest and relax here and there too. I know this may be quite difficult for extraverted people but it will be worth it even if it is just for 30 to an hour each day.

Finally let's see what the Vera Sibilla forecasts for this week, shall we?:

Distrust in a new relationship because of reckless behaviour. This has to do with suffering coming to an end after experiencing a loss whilst travelling or out and about. A bad start with a helpful woman as everything is wrapping up. An untrustworthy person is taking advantage of this generous woman and this will cause a small trip to be cancelled. This was all influenced by happiness and achievement after enduring a difficult period in spite of dealing with someone who lacks accountability or a bad start.

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Vera Sibilla Reading for 13-20 April 2026

Hey everyone! Hope your week is going well. For this week's reading I am using the Bonefire Tarot (1st Edition) by Gabi Angus-West Copyright 2016 Schiffer Publishing: Red Feather MBS All Rights Reserved, La Vera Sibilla Italiana ("Everyday Oracle Cards") Copyright 2007 Lo Scarabeo All Rights Reserved and Myths and Mermaids: Oracle of the Water by Jasmine Becket-Griffith, Amber Logan and Kachina Mickeletto Copyright 2014 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved.

Let's get this week started off with the Bonefire Tarot:

If you have more than enough then why not share with those who could use your help? You could volunteer at a food bank, donate to charity, give a homeless person food or money (but don't try to take it back if you don't want them spending it on alcohol or drugs. That's not generosity, that's inflicting violence on them. Also don't take photos of yourself doing charity work and posting it on social media and claim you are being selfless when really all you are doing is inflating your ego. Knock it off.  One more thing: voluntourism is NOT helpful nor is it ethically responsible for you to do as you are not actually helping people but using White Supremacy (yes, even if you are not white yourself) to embarrass people in genuine need. Don't do it. Find other ethical means before attempting colonialism via voluntourism.) Now, if you are the one needing help, what resources can you use to get yourself back on track? Who can you trust to ask for what you need? Do what is necessary to get it. Yes, even if it feels embarrassing. It's better than having to suffer unnecessarily. So put your fear and pride aside and let people help you out.

You are indecisive about a crucial decision needing to be made and not feeling confident with the options given to you. Choose the option that's going to best for you and your current circumstances. Even if the choices are all beneficial, you are only able to pick one at this moment in time. So choose wisely! There is a dependable and generous person who will take an unconventional approach in dealing with a power-hungry or otherwise irresponsible person who is forcing you to stand up for yourself. You have their support even when you least expect it. It may feel like everyone and everything is working against you at this moment in time but keep going and you will see that you get exactly what you are looking for even if the timing doesn't feel right at this moment. Finally, it is time to moving away from what is holding you back, accept that it cannot be changed or has left your life and allow yourself to finally move in a direction that gets you where you know you need to be even if it is filled with great uncertainty and doubt at first. You cannot stay where you are at any longer so do what is needed to facilitate this change. 

You are out of excuses. Get to it!

Moving on the the Myths and Mermaids: Oracle of the Water to see what messages they can inspire us with for the upcoming week ahead:

Who are you really versus what façade are you putting on to keep the peace rather than stand up for yourself? Finding our true self requires a lot of unpacking depending on your life's circumstances and what you were forced to hide when you were young and what you still hide now as an adult. It is discovering who you were before you were forced to conform to society's values and beliefs that conflict with yours. It can take years and may require meeting with a therapist (or other licensed professional) to help you uncover the self you were truly meant to be versus what you have settled for. What needs to happen in order for you to express yourself fully, authentically and without censorship? Journal about this question and really contemplate what you can do to finally live the life that is meant for you and your journey.

     You might feel incredibly inspired to act on something that will be incredibly life changing but you are not fully ready yet.  There is something missing and if you rush into something new haphazardly it will blow up in your face. This is a warning that something that's not addressed will come to the surface and force you to face it. If you are looking for a new job or promotion, now is not the time to go for it but rather figure out what is still missing before you pursue it. Otherwise, you will sabotage yourself and it will hurt big time. So use this time to prepare for your next big move but don't make the huge step until you have everything you need to actually go for it.

 You will need to face uncomfortable and unfamiliar territory this week. This doesn't necessarily mean its a bad thing but it will definitely bring up feels of uncertainty. Sometimes in order to get what we want we must experience the great unknown. Not knowing what is going to happen next but continuing on anyway.

Finally. let's see what the Vera Sibilla forecasts for this week:

Money required you to put the effort in so that you could successfully obtain it and end any issues that came up. This warns of imminent danger or blackmail from a partner who betrayed you and either you will discover a shocking secret about them or your skeletons in your closet are about to be revealed at an event that will cause misunderstandings among your personal group of friends and/or colleagues that will lead to a lack of direction or experiencing a loss of some kind. Tread carefully. It's about to get ugly out there.
 

Deck Review: Oracle of the Shapeshifters (Australian 2nd Edition)

 Hello everyone! Welcome to another deck review! This time I am reviewing the Australian 2nd Edition of the Oracle of the Shapeshifters. So what do I mean by 2nd Australian edition? Well, when this deck and the Oracle of Shadows and Light came out in the US, many cards were changed and the guidebook was altered to be catered to teenagers for some reason (not sure why that was or what the purpose of it was but the American versions were published by an entirely different company separate from Blue Angel in spite of the guidebook still be written by Lucy Cavendish and artwork by Jasmine Becket-Griffith. There is now a 3rd edition of the Australian version of Oracle of the Shapeshifters so my version won't look like the current version on the market. So keep that in mind.

Cardstock: Sturdy with glossy finish. This may have changed in the most recent edition of this deck.

The Guidebook: The guidebook contains information on shapeshifters and how to work with them, 3 unique spreads relevant to this deck, information of shapeshifting and change in our lives, how to work with the cards and then finally is followed up by the card meanings which includes the following: a thumbnail of the card image, the message written on the card itself,  [Title of card] speaks, about [title of the card] and finally a divination message for the card itself. There are no reversals in this deck and there isn't even a mention of them.

Can you read this deck without having to rely on the guidebook? Yes, most of the cards make it simple enough to give your intuition a hit needed to give you a meaningful reading. However, if you really want to make the most out of this deck then I would suggest working the guidebook to get a more in-depth message that can help you best work with each card.

Beginner friendly? Yes, this deck is absolutely approachable for beginners. The guidebook will only help expand your ability to better read the cards. Especially, when working with the theme of this deck which is change through courageous action.

Diversity: Out of the 45 cards, there are only 3 cards that depict someone who is obviously not a white person. It is definitely better than nothing but there could have been more. Keep this in mind if this is crucial factor for you when determining whether or not to purchase this deck.

Theme: Shapeshifting. This deck is aimed at making significant life changes and holding yourself to these changes.

How balanced is this deck? Out of the 45 cards this deck, here is how it can be broken down to:

Positive: 21

Neutral: 15

Negative: 10

This deck does tend to lean toward the positive. However, if you combine the neutral and negative cards together, there are more of them than the positive cards. Since this is a deck about asking a question and then acting on the message you receive, it can challenge you and help you work with shadows (or what's hidden or suppressed in your life that needs to be addressed so that you have the courage to change your life for the better).

Overall, this is a great shadow work deck to work with. Especially when dealing with issues with change and needing to act into order to make a significant change in your life.

On to you: What do you think of this deck? Which version of this deck do you own (1st, 2nd, or 3rd Australian Edition or American Edition)? Do you own both the American and Australian decks? If so, which one do you prefer? (And which editions of each version do you have?) Do you use it often? Do you exclusively use this deck for when you need a change in your life? Do you use it with other decks? If so, which decks do you think pair best with this deck? Let me know in the comments below!

Deck Review: Oracle of the Hidden Worlds

 Hi everyone! Let's have a look an oracle deck that I feel don't use that often but can provide quite insightful readings no less: Oracle of the Hidden Worlds by Lucy Cavendish and artwork by Gilbert Williams. This deck was published by Blue Angel Publishing in 2019. The box is typical of what you can expect from Blue Angel which is a nice sturdy box to store you cards in. When I purchased this deck it did come with a random black white paper. Not sure why that was necessary but something to keep in mind when purchasing this deck.

Cardstock: Sturdy with a smooth matte finish.

The guidebook: The guidebook contain information on the Hidden Worlds, how to work with the cards, 4 spreads unique to this deck itself as well as Lucy Cavendish's unique take on the Celtic Cross spread and of course, the card meanings with a thumbnail of each card, their keywords, a few paragraphs about each card and an illumination for each card.

Whilst this deck mentions reversals, Lucy Cavendish does not provide reversals for each card itself. This is due to 34 out of the 44 cards being landscape whilst only 10 of the cards being portrait. Personally, this is something I really don't like oracle card decks doing. Just pick one format and stick to it. I get that it might not have been possible to do so but this inconsistency throws off the deck slightly. Especially, you do want to use reversals.

With that being said, Lucy Cavendish does give a heads up on how to tell if a landscape card is reversed in the reversals section.

Can you read this deck without having to rely on the guidebook? Yes, there are enough keywords on the card itself to make it accessible for those who want to read it directly out of the box.

Beginner friendly? Yes, this deck is absolutely approachable to beginners and the guidebook will only enhance their readings. The guidebook's illumination can even expand on the reading by giving it an affirmation to strengthen it. 

Diversity: There are 18 out of 44 cards that portray only locations without people, fairies or angels. The characters that aren't portrayed with a transparent white colour are very clearly white people. There are no obvious non-white people portrayed at all in this deck. Whilst there aren't really any depictions of couples in this deck, apart from maybe The Path of the Gods card to indict any couples let alone LGBT+ characters. If this is crucial factor for you in determining whether or not to purchase this deck then keep that in mind.

How balanced is this deck? Out of the 44 cards in this deck, here is how it can be broken down to:

Positive: 17

Neutral: 27

Negative: 0

This deck tends to lean toward neutral. You could read reversals to help bring balance to this deck by having negative aspects of each card. Otherwise, this would work great alongside a tarot, lenormand, kipper, vera sibilla, other fortunetelling deck or with another divination like Runes.

Specific theme: The Astral Plane's Hidden Worlds (Ex: Afterlife, In-Between, Faerie Lands, Angelic Realms, Dream Worlds, Galactic Worlds (especially if you are into Star-Seed ideology) and Beyond the Veil). This deck's aim is to get answers to best life your life by connecting to these Hidden Worlds.

This deck is definitely not one of my favourites when it comes to Lucy Cavendish's abundance of oracle decks. As someone who is NOT a New-Ager nor works with the Star-Seed archetype (I did explore it way back in 2017 but it ultimately did not resonate with me and my beliefs). If the Star-Seed archetype and exploring galactic realms is your thing then you may actually enjoy this deck. Some keywords were incredibly weak and I didn't feel like I could necessarily get it to fully relate to specific circumstance without it sounding vague. The guidebook wasn't as in-depth like previous (and subsequent) decks done by Lucy Cavendish. Whilst the artwork is gorgeous and very evocative I just feel like it just wasn't enough to be used effectively as it could have been. I feel like there could have been more information added to the guidebook to help solve this issue.

Overall, this deck can be used a great clarifying deck in a reading, for ritual or meditation use as a daily affirmation. This is especially great for those who like to connect to the astral realms, identify with the Star-Seed (or similar) archetypes and perhaps for those who specially work with the Akashic Records.

On to you: What do you think of this deck? Do you like it? Do you use it often? Do you use it for specific types of readings? If so, which circumstances is the deck best used for in your opinion? Let me know in the comments below!

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Kipper Card Reading for 06-13 April 2026

Hello everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading! For this week's reading I am using the Alchemical Tarot (4th edition) by Robert M. Place Copyright 2015 Hermes Publications All Rights Reserved, Oracle of the Hidden Worlds by Lucy Cavendish and artwork by Gilbert Williams Copyright 2019 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved and Original Kipper Wahrsagekarten by Regula Elizabeth Fiechter Copyright 2005 AGMüller Uraina Neuhausen am Rheinfall CH Switzerland All Rights Reserved.

Let's get this week started off with the Alchemical Tarot

A mentor guided you as circumstances shifted in your favour which helped rebuild stability in your life. You need to keep this momentum going forward because you are going to get exactly what you want but you need to keep your impulses in check to prevent self-sabotage this week. This will bring an ending that comes with a call to action and having someone stand up for you when it matters most. This will then give up opportunities for you to show off your skillset and talents so that you can use them to earn more money. Keep an eye out for anything that could help strengthen these abilities.

Moving on to the Oracle of the Hidden Worlds we have:

You can get whatever you want out of your life, it is just a matter of realigning yourself with your purpose. What do you really want out of life? What are you dying to do but have not done yet? Bucket list? Time to make those things happen in spite of where you are in life right now. Rearrange your routine to include these "always wanted to do but have not gotten to do yet" goals and you will see your life change for the better. You will feel more fulfilled even if you experience many failures and challenges along the way. It is time to reconnect with who you are at your core. This may involve doing uncomfortable shadow work to uncover what's hidden so you can make your life better in spite of what the world expects out of you. Learn, unlearn and relearn important life values to better inform your moral compass to help you be the best version of yourself for not just your sake but for those around you as well. Make sure you are doing what you can to take care of yourself (whatever that looks like to you) so that you can be fully present and feel empowered to make the right choices for you and for the good of the collective. Ground yourself, trust your intuition and do the work necessary to empower those who don't have a voice to finally be heard and to inspire others to do the same.

Finally let's see what the Orignal Kipper Wahrsagekarten forecast for this upcoming week:

You or your (potential) partner will need stability this week. You sought out advice and now you will be able to move to toward a fresh start. Whether you are thinking of travelling abroad, trying to tackle your to-do list or address an addiction holding you back, just know that change takes time and you will need to be patient even if it seems like it is taking forever to get done. You and your (potential) partner's home or family life is what needs to be addressed head on in order for their to be any improvements in your relationship or actually being able to begin a new relationship with health dynamics from the get-go. Find your "why" for doing what you want to pursue and let that be what motivates you to bring forth the stability you are looking for.

Deck Review: Wild Wisdom of the Faery Oracle

Hi everyone! Let's a have look a one of my favourite oracle decks in my collection: Wild Wisdom of the Faery Oracle (2nd Edition) by Lucy Cavendish and Selina Fenech Copyright 2015 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved.

This first image is of the box. It is typically what you can expect from Blue Angel. It is nice and sturdy and will keep your cards and guidebook nice and secure. The second image to the right shows you a thumbnail of the card, its title, keywords that are also on the card itself, a description of the card, its divinatory meaning and its reversed meaning.

The cardstock: As you can see in the image above the cardstock is nice and sturdy. However, I did buy this deck when it first came out so the card texture had a glossy finish. This may have changed to a matte finish in later printings as this has become the favoured card finish for Blue Angel for a while. If you bought this deck recently, let me know if this has changed from a glossy to a matte finish.

The last two images depict what the cards look like. As you can see there's the image of the card itself, the card's number at the top of the card, the title and a few keywords for each card.

The guidebook:  The guidebook contain extensive information on how to work with faeries, faery energy, faery beliefs, when to work with the faeries, faery symbols, signs the faeries are with you, questions to ask the faery, reversals, 3 unique spreads exclusive to this deck and finally, the card interpretations. An example of what you can find in the guidebook can be seen in the second image.

Unlike her successor deck: The Faery Forest Oracle, this deck actually has reversed meanings provided with each card. 

Can you read this deck right out the box without having to rely on the guidebook? Yes, absolutely! The keywords will give you enough for your intuition go off of to where you don't necessarily need the guidebook. Especially, if you don't read reversals. However, with that being said, I would highly recommend working with the guidebook to really get to know the deck as a whole and to get the reversed meanings down.

Beginner friendly? Yes, I would say this deck is absolutely approachable to someone new to oracle cards and the guidebook will only help enhance their oracle card reading abilities.

Diversity: Unfortunately, this deck is very heteronormative and only includes white faeries. There are no LGBT+ characters nor are there characters of other races represented within the characters themselves. If this is crucial factor for you in determining whether or not to purchase this deck then keep that in mind.

How balanced is this deck? Out of the 47 cards in this deck, here is how it can be broken down to:

Positive: 24 (Upright)- 1 (Reversed)

Neutral: 19 (Upright)-3 (Reversed)

Negative: 4 (Upright)-43 (Reversed)

This deck tends to lean toward the positive when only reading this deck upright. However, it becomes more balanced when you incorporate reversals into readings. Whilst there are only 21 neutral cards in total. I do feel this deck is quite balanced enough to where you don't have to use another deck (ex: Tarot, Lenormand, Vera Sibilla, Kipper, etc) alongside it. Although, it will enhance the reading if you do choose to use it with another deck or divination tool. (Ex: Runes).

Specific theme: Faeries. This deck's aim is to answer questions related to healing and change.

Overall, this deck is great for doing shadow work over aspects of your life that need healing and for helping make positive changes in your life by guiding your in the direction you need to be in. This is especially great if you work with faeries in your witchcraft or spiritual path.

On to you? What do you think of this deck? Do you own it and use it yourself? Would you consider getting it (if you don't already have it)? Why or why not? Let me know in the comments below!

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Lenormand Reading for 30 March-06 April 2026

Hey everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading! For this week's reading I am using the Shapeshifter Tarot by Lisa Hunt, D.J.

The Constellation Lenormand was a self-published Lenormand deck created in 2020 but the website for it is now gone and its creators are not active on social media anymore unfortunately.*

Let's get this week started with the Shapeshifter Tarot:

There was a transition that happened prematurely or something that needed to be tied up before you are able to move on from your current situation. You have successfully wrapped up a project or cycle in your life that needs to end but it has lead to confusion and made you more up to be influenced by dubious people. What requires your focus now is to realise that certain problems are only in your head and are not going to happen so I need to address these thoughts so you do project them onto others or make them become real problems. Remove yourself from toxic situations, contracts and people who only are looking out their own interests. This especially crucial when it is impacting your finances and/or physical health. Once that has been dealt with you will finally be able to move on to something better, get your mojo back and be supported by those who matter most to you and being able to reciprocate for those who need you.

Now, let's see what the Constellation Lenormand forecasts for this week:

There was resilience through someone's message that initiated a major change for you. There's stressful news about a woman in your life (or if the woman represents you then it could be you dealing with stressful news). You will get through this by having a creative idea that will come through an epiphany. It will be that "a-ha" moment. This will help you have the strength to overcome a burdensome obstacle standing in the way of accomplishing your goals. A document or package contains an untrustworthy message. Take whatever is received at face value until you can confirm that it is true. An independent woman (or yours if the woman represents you)'s mental state or creative vision (depending on your circumstances) is making an impact on the current situation. This will enable your creativity to be showcased in a positive way. Pay attention to any email message (or instant messenger app like Slack or Microsoft Teams) as it will detail an upcoming change you will need to be aware of.

Finally, let's wrap up this reading with the Oracle of the Shapeshifters (Australian 2nd Edition):

You could reconnect with someone or something nostalgic from your childhood that will let unlock the potential hidden within you by using your creativity and intuition as channel to remind you who you were and who you can eventually become. Once you embrace your full potential then you will be able to initiate this change in your daily life so that you can be alignment with where you need to be in order to thrive in your life. Even the tiniest step matters. Remember that! On top of that you will receive great news that will positively influence your life for the better. Be open to whatever comes your way.

Deck Review: The Faery Forest Oracle

Hello Everyone! Welcome to a new series on my blog where I review decks in my collection. For those of you who remember my YouTube videos from 2015-2020 will know that one of the most common videos I would make would be reviewing decks in my collections (and unboxing videos but I later had to clarify the difference because my first impressions are not the same as my impressions after working with a deck for specific period of time.) Now I have decided to go through my collection and review decks I've worked with and if this is a go-to deck, a seasonal deck (ex: Spring, Autumn, etc), for special occasion or holiday (Ex: Valborg/Walpurgisnacht, Halloween, Samhain, Birthday, etc) or for a specific ritual, spell, etc.

|Disclaimer: I purchased this deck with my own funds and not being sponsored by the publisher.|

Anyway, let's get started with the review for the Faery Forest Oracle. 

First things first: The guidebook was written by the incredibly talented Lucy Cavendish and the artwork is by Maxine Gadd- a faery artist based in Oregon in the USA.

The Cardstock: Thick and glossy. (*Note: I purchased this deck when it first came out in 2016 so the cardstock may have changed since then so keep that in mind*).

This deck has multiple borders and while the brown one give a canvas wall feeling to it the other borders feel a bit unnecessary. I have seen others trim the black borders off (and if I remember correctly a few have trimmed all 3 borders down.) If you are willing to trim the borders then go for it. Just keep in mind that it will affect the beautiful backing if that's a concern to you.

The next two images show off what you can expect from the cards themselves.

Each card has a triple border with one border that a specific colour to help distinguish it from the others. The cards themselves have the title of what the card is and has three accompanying keywords relevant for each card.

The guidebook: The guidebook contains information about the Faery Forest itself, how to work and bond with your deck, unique aspects of this deck, using your deck for magical purposes, advice on how to keep your readings pure, flowing and with integrity and 4 spreads (2 of them being unique to this deck). After that, you get a small black and white thumbnail of each card, the title of the card, the 3 keywords used on the card itself and an expanded message for each card and the original name of the artwork that Maxine Gadd assigned to each card. As you can see in the following image below:

 Whilst reversals are mentioned, Lucy Cavendish has ultimately decided not to provide reversed meanings for this particular deck.  

Can you read this deck immediately out of the box?- Absolutely. The keywords for each card make it easy to read with no matter if you read with just one card or with multiple cards in your own spreads.

Beginner friendly?- Yes, this deck can be read by those who are brand new to reading oracle cards without having to rely too heavily on the guidebook.

Diversity: Unfortunately, every single character portrayed in this deck is represented by white people. So it is absolutely not inclusive visually and each person is supposed to represent a cisgender god, goddess or other mythical faery. There's also no indication that there are LGBT+ representation. If this is a crucial factor for you when it comes to deciding on whether or not to purchase a deck, keep that in mind.

How balanced is this deck? Out of the 45 cards in the deck here is how it can be broken down to:

Positive: 20 cards

Neutral: 18 cards

Negative: 7 cards

This deck tends to lean toward the positive but there are enough neutral cards that can help balance out a reading in spite of there only being 7 negative cards in the deck. If you choose to read reversals you can also use them to help bring more balance to this deck.

Can this deck be used on its own or does it need to be accompanied by another type of deck (ex: Tarot, Lenormand, Vera Sibilla, Kipper, etc) or tool (ex: Runes, Oghams, etc)? Yes, it can be used on its own and it can also expand on a tarot (or any other type of divination deck or tool) reading.

Does this deck tend to favour a specific season over another? No, but I am sure many people may feel more called to this deck during the Spring or Summer time due to its colour-pallet. But you can definitely use this deck whenever you can.

Specific theme: Faeries. This deck's aim is to answer day-to-day questions to help you make better decisions and navigate difficult challenges sensibly.

Overall, this is a great deck for answering practical questions in your daily life or when you're busy and don't necessarily want to dive deep into an issue but rather find a more direct and to the point solution to the area inquired about.

On to you? What do you think of the Faery Forest Oracle? Do you own it and use it yourself? Would you consider getting it (if you don't already have it)? Why or why not?  Let me know in the comments below!

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Sibilla Reading for 22-29 March 2026

Hey everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading! For this week's reading I am using The Faery Forest Oracle by Lucy Cavendish and artwork by Maxine Gadd Copyright 2016 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved, The Witches Tarot by Ellen Dugan and artwork by Mark Evans Copyright 2012 Llewellyn Publishing All Rights Reserved and I misteri della Sibilla by Ettore Maiotti Copyright 1982 Dal Negro All Rights Reserved.

Let's get this week started with The Faery Forest Oracle:

Pay attention to what's going on around. What are being saying versus what their body language is conveying? Is it conflicting in anyway? Don't take what people say at face value. Let their actions speak for them and then you will know what their true intentions will be. You may be presented with a secret or classified information that will require you to keep silent about it until it is ready to be known. Whether it's personal or professional you would do well to keep mum about it for the time being. This could also be as simple as starting a new goal. Don't tell anybody about it until you're made significant progress so it doesn't get sabotaged or you lose motivation to continue to pursue it. Let people show you who they are rather than just taking their word or others about who they are. Let things happen rather than trying to force anything as it will backfire and make you look like the bad person. Your health is recovering and you will get back into the swing of things. Whatever you had to put aside or felt burnt out from will finally be manageable again and you will be able to complete them with a renewed sense of motivation and purpose for it. Any goal or project you've had to abandoned can now be revived again. Go ahead and get back to it! Someone such as mentor, advisor or trustworthy person in your life will come to help you navigate a current obstacle you're facing and give you the tools, resources and guidance need to overcome it. If you are needing assistance now is the time to go and get it.

Moving on to I misteri della Sibilla we have:

There was a passing disappointment that could be overcome with hard work and effort to address a poor judgement call being made. This means that bullying in the workplace and a toxic work environment is enabling a career woman to step on others in other to obtain a promotion or higher position in the company for the sake of her own future. This will cause failure that will bring forth incredibly harsh consequences and forced change that's absolutely devastating for your current position or any job opportunities coming your way.

Finally, let's wrap up this week with the Witches Tarot:

Having dealt with negative people has forced you to make a crucial decision with each option being disappointing but needing to make it anyway. You need to face an issue wearing you down head on or you will never be able to move forward with your life. This appears to be influenced by a stubborn, controlling and materialistic person whose boredom is negatively impacting your current circumstances. What you can do is address the lack of discipline by putting what you have to offer out them by showing how you get things done even causes an embarrassment among those you respect. Know your worth and don't let others underestimate what you are capable of doing. The significant amount of Swords cards are definitely indicating that you need to not only communicate effectively with others but also backup what you say you can do with your actions. Express those thoughts and get out of your head!

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Vera Sibilla Reading for 17-24 March 2026

Hello everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading! For this week's reading I am using the Sibilla del 1890 per divinare by Osvaldo Menegazzi and Isa Donelli Copyright Il Meneghello All Rights Reserved, Wild Wisdom of the Faery (2nd Edition) by Lucy Cavendish and Selina Fenech Copyright 2015 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved and finally, I am using the El Tarot de los Cuentos de Hadas ("Fairytale Tarot" Spanish Edition) by Lisa Hunt Copyright 2012 Sirio All Rights Reserved.

Let's see what the Sibilla del 1890 has  to forecast for this week ahead:

An opportunity comes as things are wrapping up but it lead to a bad start. A gossipy woman in your space is causing a misunderstanding among a group of people that is influencing someone's betrayal toward another or is highlighting how their vices are impacting everyone around them. This will lead to a void or loss of some kind due lies, power hungriness or pride causing everything to come to screeching halt and/or forcing you to finally learn from repeated mistakes of your past coming back to bite you.

Let's move on to the Wild Wisdom of the Faery Oracle to see what wisdom they will impart on to us this week:

A lack of preparedness is causing you to look for answers via people your own age. You aren't willing to seek advice from someone older because you either don't trust them, you feel cut off from them (e.g. friends, parents, grandparents, etc) or wanting to cut yourself of from your bloodline and where you came from. This disconnect could be due to trauma or feeling so uncertain that you aren't able to reach out the support what would be there to help you otherwise. If it doesn't feel like the "right time" then sit with why you think that is. What is missing from your current circumstances that's stopping you from moving forward? Use whatever you need to get the answers you seek such as your divination tools (e.g. tarot cards, runes, talking boards, scrying mirror, carromancy, geomancy, etc), a therapist, a trusted friend, or another trustworthy person who can look at your situation objectively and give you an answer that's beneficial to you.

Finally, let's hear from the Tarot de los Cuentos de Hadas ("Fairytale Tarot" Spanish Edition):

There was a call to action in terms of getting what needs to be done completed and this was due to a lack of money and resources or a need to ask for help when you simply couldn't do it on your own anymore. You are currently faced with a situation that you've lost control of and now you have to do damage control. Amends are being made and resources are being effectively used to make whatever needs to happen, happen. The results may not be 100% of what you wanted but you are still going to be properly rewarded and compensated either way. Just make sure you don't take on too much or you will be held accountable for anything that doesn't get done. You can't use your other obligations as an excuse. So make you sure that if you commit to something that you stick to it until it is done.
 

Weekly Tarot, Oracle and Vera Sibilla Reading for 08-15 March 2026

Hello everyone! It's time for another weekly reading! For this week's reading I am using the Vera Sibilla  Copyright Masenghini All Rights Reserved, The Earth Power Oracle by Stacey Demarco and Jimmy Manton Copyright 2014 Blue Angel Publishing All Rights Reserved and Happy Tarot by Serena Ficca Copyright 2015 Lo Scarabeo All Rights Reserved.

Let's start off with the Vera Sibilla and see what is forecasted for this week:

There was poor judgement call being made where a woman (sister/colleague/friend/daughter/You[if you identify as woman]/partner) went through rough time due to their partner being untrustworthy or an ulterior motive. There will be a positive change for the better coming that will feel like it came out of left field. So expect lucky wins and an opportunity that you need to jump at immediately in order to get it. There will be a celebration of some sort. This could be because of their prior success or opportunity referenced or it could be a birthday, wedding, graduation, birth of a child, a date, a vacation or holiday together with your partner and/or friends or simply hanging out with people you see at bars or nightclubs. But that's not to say that there won't be slight inconveniences and set backs here. There will be delays in communication arriving and packages or letters arriving later than expected. So be patient!

There will be a someone who you thought you could trust (e.g. a boyfriend/male cousin/son/colleague/friend) who will either betray you or will not be able to help in your in your time of need and force you to deal with a harsh reality check. This will bring about unfulfilled expectations for something that you had high hopes for (e.g. a new romance, friendship, business contact, an investment or career advancement) only for it to failure or not happen at this moment in time. But do not fret. There is a reliable woman here to assist you when you need it most. You will eventually get what you want. 

Moving on to the Earth Power Oracle, let's see what destinations are going to provide use with necessary insight for our week ahead:

You have the ability to make what you want of life happen but you must first plant the seeds in order to get started and continue to nurture them so that you can achieve anything you set out to do. Don't forget to take of yourself physically and mentally to ensure that you have the energy and ability to get done what needs to be done. Help out others in their time of need when you are able to do so. (E.g. donate to charity, support a friend's crowdfunding campaign, help someone out financially (e.g. family, friends, a random homeless person, etc) but also don't let them take advantage of you. Connect with like-minded people and be willing to keep an open mind when meeting new people for the first time. Let nostalgic moments in your life remind you what you are capable of and inspire you to reach your full potential without using fear as an excuse to hold you back. Learn something new that is going to nourish your life (e.g. a new language, how to cook and/or bake, coding a website, ski lessons, etc). Share your knowledge with those who are going to benefit from it whilst also setting clear and firm boundaries about what you are willing to provide and what is completely off-limits. Show compassion to others (especially in this turbulent political climate where it matters now more than ever) even if it means showing them tough love through debunking misinformation and disinformation being spread. If you have strong influence on Social Media then it is your responsibility to use your platform to uplift others and call out propaganda justifying harm caused towards others whilst also playing victim when called out.

Finally, let's wrap up this reading with the Happy Tarot:

You need to be emotionally honest about what is going on with your current circumstances as they won't be in your favour at this time. If this is a legal issue then you will have to face the fallout when a judgement against you has been made. Life can be incredibly unfair at times but you will have support from others should you open up to them and let them know what the situation is and what can be done to resolve this issue. Do what you can to stay out of trouble (where possible) and don't do anything to make it worse. You don't need to suffer in silence. Get the help you need and let others in your space support you where they can. Don't be afraid to ask for help.

Weekly Tarot and Oracle Reading for 01-08 March 2025

Hey everyone! Welcome to another weekly reading! For this week's reading I am using the Oracle of the Radiant Sun by Caroline Smith and John Astrop Copyright 2018 Eddison Books All Rights Reserved, Oracle of the Fairies by Karen Kay and artwork by Ginger Kelly Copyright 2019 Hayhouse Publishing All Rights Reserved and Beginner's Tarot by Kathleen McCormack and artwork by John Woodcock Copyright 2001 Quarto Inc Barron's Educational Series Inc All Rights Reserved.

Let's get this week started off with the Oracle of the Fairies:

Something you've lost will be found if you are proactive about finding it. Consider where you may have misplaced it and retrace your steps. If you still cannot find it then try to obtain a replacement if it is invaluable to you. If you aren't able to do so, don't worry. There will be something better that will be of better use in your life. If you are missing someone then they will be coming back into your life soon. Be patient. If not, then accept that relationship (whether platonic, professional or romantic) has come to an end and let their influence in your life be what helps become a better version of yourself.  Believe in yourself and let yourself do what is needed to create a better change in your life. Even if you cannot currently see it at the moment. Trust that there will be better times ahead so that you can do what is necessary to bring forth a better situation in your life. Use your tools and talents to the best of your abilities. This is a great time to plan out what you want to do and be incredibly specific about how you  will pursue it. This will create better changes in your life and help you address issues repeating themselves in your life so that you can change course for the better.

Moving on to the Oracle of the Radiant Sun. Let's see what this astrological oracle forecasts for this week:

Do what you can to take care of your health (mental and physical) because you may be too stressed out by someone pressuring your to get something done within a specific deadline or you having to get someone to do something they are not motivated in doing. You will have the opportunity to either be visited from someone from overseas, travel abroad, learn a new language that will enrich your life (either by using it in your daily life or eventually living in a country that speaks that specific language), be mentored by someone who will ultimately get you in a position to get promoted or find the most ideal career option for you; Or due to the current political environment of the world at the moment, you may be forced to do something for a political means to initiate a change for a better world. You are being asked to rearrange your schedule based on your goals in a realistic manner because the current way of doing things isn't working for you anymore.  Being tempted by others leads to acting on impulse that will cause a loss of some kind in your life and can only bring forth extreme jealousy which will be destructed to you. Use discernment with who you trust and don't let people set you off when something unexpected happens.

Finally, let's wrap up this reading with the Beginner's Tarot:

 Spending time with friends will help you drop unnecessary burdens and more time for yourself. This will allow you to better reflect on where you are and where you need to be. Be patient when you aren't able to make changes you desire. Keep making progress even if you cannot immediately see it at the moment. It will be significant later on. Be careful with speculative spending and use your money where it is going to best benefit you rather than recklessly wasting money or resources on something useless or something that provides instant gratification or gives you a dopamine hit. If you are struggling with money and resources then you are being encouraged to find something or someone helpful to help you get back on track so that you aren't suffering. Your determination with your actions will be what makes you successful with your goals this week. Don't rely on luck nor take huge risks or it won't go well for you. If you are feeling unlucky lately then know that you luck with eventually change for the better but it is not going to happen for a while. Good luck will come to you but it happen at moment where you least expect it and after a struggle has been overcome.

Your situation is improving and you will get what you want but it may not be exactly what you wanted, how you expected it or 100% perfect but it is still a good outcome regardless. It is something to celebrate even if it is a small victory. It still matters and will make a difference later on. Especially, when it comes with a difficult choice that needs to be made as a result of having the means to solve a problem through your intellect and strong mindset.
