FAQ: Oracle card decks

Oracle Card Decks are divination tools used to provide insight, guidance, and clarity on life situations or personal questions. Unlike tarot decks, which follow a structured system, oracle decks are more flexible, with each deck having its own theme, symbols, and number of cards. Each card offers a message or piece of wisdom that encourages self-reflection, spiritual growth, or decision-making.

Oracle decks are used by spiritual seekers, mystics, healers, and those looking for personal or intuitive guidance. They are popular among individuals who practice divination, meditation, or mindfulness, and by professional readers who use them for spiritual coaching or guidance sessions. Oracle decks are also used by those looking for daily inspiration, support in decision-making, or deeper self-awareness.

You use oracle decks to gain insight, find clarity, or receive spiritual guidance on a specific question or issue. They offer intuitive support, helping you to reflect on your current life situation and the underlying energies at play. Oracle cards are often used to tap into personal intuition, inspire positive action, and offer encouragement or affirmation during times of uncertainty or transformation.

To use an oracle deck, you shuffle the cards while focusing on a question or situation you need guidance on. You then select one or more cards, interpreting their message based on the symbols, words, or themes on the card. Many people use oracle cards as part of a daily spiritual practice, drawing a card each morning for inspiration or meditation. Others may use the cards for specific issues, using the guidance to make decisions or gain new perspectives on their lives. The flexibility of oracle decks allows for personal interpretation and connection with the wisdom they offer.

SINGLE DECK

Each elegant card, featuring fantastic images from the public domain and Sarah’s personal ephemera collection, is designed to inspire and encourage creatives, healers, and helpers of all sorts.

Alice offers her sacred wisdom in a lighthearted (and sometimes salty) way and Sarah adds a thoughtful prompt and simple daily prayer to accompany her message. Themes include prayer, meditation, humility, moderation, self-love, family, friendship, creativity, pitfalls & quagmires, addiction recovery, and dealing with fear.

There is a coordinating book of daily inspiration that is sold separately.
"Seidelmann's transcribed instructions from Alice the Elephant in How Good Are You Willing to Let It Get? card deck bring a sense of higher meaning, softness, humor, and beauty to our human voyage through a difficult world. Sarah Seidelmann is a true medicine woman, and everything she creates is good for what ails us."

Martha Beck, author of Expecting Adam and Finding Your Way in a Wild New World

"How Good Are You Willing to Let it Get is guaranteed to lift your mood, put a spring in your step, and pull you out of whatever funk that old logical brain of yours has plunged you into at any given moment. We all need help keeping our vibration high so that life gets better and better. And we all need validation for when things aren't so great. This card deck is designed to assist with this level of human homework. Enjoy them."

Portals of Presence

FACES DRAWN FROM THE SUBTLE REALMS

SINGLE DECK

Enter a deeper relationship with yourself and the world through the universal language of the human face. The images in this deck were selected from 20 years of work created in the presence of ancient trees, mountains, standing stones, temples, cathedrals, and human wisdom carriers from many lineages. Each face radiates a unique presence. Think of them as allies, nature spirits, beloveds, or visitors from subtle realms. Gaze deeply and explore your relationship with these beings.
Rather than offer written meanings, the guidebook supports you to cultivate your own experience of the cards. It offers ways to select them, lay them out, and enliven them through creative processes. It also includes digital access to a guided meditation with original music. Use it to hold sacred space while you work with the cards. Portals of Presence can be combined with SoulCards 1&2, each deck bringing a new dimension to the other.

“A gift to everyone who will look into infinity through these eyes.” Vicki Robin

“The deck has sacred assignments, for they are instruments of attunement that bridge us to sacred relationships and co-creation with the most intimate forces in life.” Orion Foxwood

“Wonderful windows into the worlds beyond…where wisdom can be sought and exchanged.” Caitlin Matthews
MORE INFORMATION FROM THE GUIDEBOOK

Approach this deck with an open mind and heart. It is not an oracle in the usual sense. It is an invitation to develop relationship with the great community of life. May these faces, drawn from the heart of the world, open portals to the subtle worlds, reminding us of the wholeness within which we reside. Gaze at these beings and allow your experience to unfold.

The Vision for this Deck

The 72 faces in Portals of Presence were selected from among thousands of Touch Drawings I created over twenty years. Each face was drawn in a particular setting: beneath an ancient tree, on a mountaintop, in a sacred temple, before a standing stone, or in the presence of a human soul. As I sat with each of them, I used the process of Touch Drawing https://touchdrawing.com to translate my subtle impressions into the form of a human face. Each face radiates a presence that is both unique and universal.
The face is the most familiar visual pattern in the human psyche. From the moment we are born, we center our world on the faces of the people close to us. As we gaze into their eyes, they gaze back. In mirroring each other, we communicate on a level beyond words. There is mutuality in this meeting.
Can we use this primal visual language to open portals of communion with our own deeper psyche and realms of consciousness beyond our familiar human world? A face in a printed photograph is only ink on paper. Yet we can attune to the presence of the person represented through focusing on the image. The faces on these cards can be used as focal points through which to attune to a more expansive range of consciousness. Think of them as personifications of elemental life forms, ancient wisdom lineages, spiritual allies, or visitors from unfamiliar realms.
There is a mystery that fuels this deck; a sense that unseen beings want to engage with it as a point of contact with our human-centric world. In this time of accelerating challenge on the planet, the possibility of expanding our range of connection can offer hope that we do not have to face our challenges alone. Rather, we are in this predicament because we have lost our sense of communion with life. Use this deck to expand your awareness to your deeper self, subtle realms beyond the familiar human world, and the sentience in all life.

A Larger Context

I have been involved with the teachings of David Spangler for many years. He offers a spiritual perspective that is deeply affirming of the experience of being human. His articulation of the sacredness of life, which he calls Incarnational Spirituality, encompasses an ecological understanding of the subtle realms. This worldview has provided a larger context in which I hold my life and work. Here are some of his thoughts. I hope it will enhance your understanding of this deck:
What is important in working with the subtle dimensions and with subtle allies is a deepening of your sense of being part of a living universe. Although contact and collaboration with the subtle worlds serve an important purpose — and increasingly so as we move into the future —what is equally important is that you re-envision and re-experience who you are.
You are a citizen, a participant, in a community of life, unfolding and thriving in a cosmos that is itself alive. One of the vital lessons arising from taking the time and attention to seek communion with the subtle life around you, is that you can discover yourself deepening into this community. And not only deepening, but being welcomed home. You are discovering the family you are part of, and with it, discovering the power you possess arising from this relationship.
One of the unfortunate consequences of life in our incarnate realms is that conditions of separation and alienation have developed. This is certainly true within the human experience, but it extends into the experiences of other forms of life as well. Barriers come into being that were never intended, but which are the result when different members of the same family forget how to talk to each other. To ignore the life around you or assume, because you cannot see it, that it does not exist is to confine yourselves to an echo chamber in which you only talk with others of your kind. Your world shrinks and you shrink with it.
The world you live in is expansive, and you are expansive as part of it. Achieving communication with a specific subtle being is less important than achieving communion with the community of all life, physical and non-physical, that embraces and holds you. This is a deepening and an opening of the heart to the life in the world around you. Just a simple acknowledgement, with love, of this life is enough to start the key turning that unlocks the door to the wider universe.

SINGLE DECK

Weet jij niet hoe je verder moet? Loop je steeds weer met dezelfde vragen en weet je de oplossing niet? Hoe vervelend is dat. Altijd als je niet weet hoe verder trek je op jouw gevoel een kaart.
Als je vastgelopen bent dan is het tijd om te gaan kijken wat er aan de hand is.
De boodschappen bij de zielskaarten geven precies aan waar jij je bevindt in een bepaalde situatie. Daardoor krijg jij inzichten die jou helpen om verder te gaan.
Het kan zijn dat je een blokkade hebt. En dat je daardoor niet in balans bent.
De kleuren van de kaart die je trekt geven precies aan op welk energetisch vlak er iets terug in balans mag komen. Je kunt de kleuren dan ook inzetten om weer meer balans te krijgen. Een kleurenvisualisatie doen met de bewuste kleuren of gewoon simpel zo vaak mogelijk naar de kleuren van de kaart kijken en deze in je opnemen. Tevens staan de kleuren afzonderlijk voor een bepaald gebied in het lichaam en ook voor een specifiek thema. Zo krijg je voor jezelf heel inzichtelijk waar jij nog aan mag werken.
Ook als je vaak twijfels hebt over jezelf, of je misschien goed bezig bent kan een kaart met een boodschap je net die bevestiging geven die jij op dat moment nodig hebt.
Daardoor krijg jij meer zelfvertrouwen en durf je ook echt verder te gaan.
Je kunt het geleerde gebruiken om de kaarten op een nog andere manier te gaan gebruiken. Een heel andere manier dus ook om de kaarten te interpreteren. Wat voel je bij een kaart? Wat doen de kleuren met jou? Heb je moeite met een bepaalde kleur? Waar staat deze kleur voor?
De afbeeldingen op de kaarten zijn gefotografeerd van mijn schilderijen en van mijn encaustic art tekeningen.
De teksten heb ik ontvangen vanuit Spirit. En deze zullen jou verder op jouw weg helpen.
