Seeds of Light Oracle Deck by Danielle Venables with artwork by Stephanie Wicker-Campbell is a colorful deck that invites users to connect with their intuition and cultivate personal growth through its evocative imagery and thoughtful guidance.

Danielle Venables is an author, mentor, akashic guide, and mother. As a spiritual midwife, Venables’ work focuses on soul purpose, holistic success, conscious leadership, and motherhood initiations. She has guided hundreds of women on their journey of empowerment since the birth of her daughter in 2019. She feels that this personal event ignited her own spiritual awakening. With this deck, she wants to “plant seeds of light.”1 You can learn more about her on her website.

“It is her goal, and soul mission, to plant seeds of light across the planet and activate the remembering of the divine light within every soul here at this time and to ultimately see the very fabric of society shift into more peace and harmony.”2

Stephanie Wicker-Campbell is a gifted illustrator and artist who combines artwork in a way that is simply out of this world. She has illustrated numerous oracle decks, journals, and book covers in rich hues and beautiful renderings. Here are some of her other publications reviewed previously.

What interested me about this deck was the name and the idea that we are all planting and harvesting “seeds of light.” As a lightworker in a modern world, I can use this special oracle for tapping into divine wisdom, and so can you!

To test the deck, I took it to my Friday Coffee & Cards group and my friends loved it!  Here is a short recap of a few of the cards drawn by the ladies in the group and their response to the guidance:

TB had a question about a relationship.
She drew the card Let Go. She smiled when she read “Trust that what’s meant to stay in your life will stay, without you trying to control and hold it together.”3

KS wanted to know how to best support her daughter, who is struggling.
This is her card: Sovereignty. The guidance included a note to be mindful of being overly generous or overextending yourself. She knew exactly what that meant and thanked me (and Venables) for the guidance.

LK asked a question about a financial matter.
Her card was Integrity. She was really challenged by the questions posed in the guidebook and the admonition to “consider whether your actions align with your values and vision.”4

The guidebook is carefully structured to make finding the guidance for each card easy, as Venables lists each card in alphabetical order in the Table of Contents.  For each card, she features a full-color photo of the card, lists the name of the card, a few key words, and then guidance.

She wraps up the written wisdom with what she calls “Integration” and lists two or three questions for more insight. I really love these questions, as it takes the guidance to a more personal level. You can journal your answers to the questions or just ponder the ideas presented.

Venables includes several spreads as well as a section on how to work with the cards. She covers the basics of setting the scene, shuffling, and allowing the cards to speak to you. Venables also presents the concept of reversed cards, how to read them, and gives several examples of interpretations of reversed cards.

In the back of the guidebook, she includes a short appendix, which lists the types of senses or “clairs” that everyone uses to tap into spiritual wisdom. This is one of the best descriptions of this topic that I have seen. 

One of the most striking features of the Seeds of Light Oracle Deck is its vibrant, uplifting artwork. Wicker-Campbell masterfully blends gentle pastels and radiant colors to convey a sense of hope, healing, and possibility on each card. The illustrations are modern yet timeless, with symbolic elements that encourage contemplation and connection. The back of the cards features a decorated frame that feels like a portal to higher guidance. One can use this image for meditation or gazing for more wisdom.

The card stock is of high quality with a smooth, matte finish, making shuffling easy and enjoyable. The deck is packaged in a two-part box that is both sturdy and beautifully designed, reflecting the care and intention behind this divination tool. The inside of the deck box reads:

“When you move in unwavering devotion to the desires of your heart, you can move mountains with faith alone.”5

Overall, Seeds of Light Oracle Deck is a heartfelt, radiant companion for anyone seeking guidance, inspiration, or a deeper connection with their own inner wisdom. Its combination of beautiful artistry and thoughtful messaging makes it a valuable addition to any spiritual toolkit.

Venables’ words are positive, encouraging, and compassionate.  Yet, the questions she poses invite introspection and accountability. Whether used for a daily card draw, in-depth spreads, or creative journaling, this deck truly plants seeds of light for personal and spiritual growth.

I plan to keep this deck on hand for my own daily card adventures and utilize it to close out client readings. The thoughtful questions Venables poses will be a great addition to my readings and discussions with clients and friends.

The Dragon Rune Oracle, by Kieron Morgan and Isedon Goldwing

The Dragon Rune Oracle, by Kieron Morgan and Isedon Goldwing
Crossed Crow Books, 1964537290, 108 pages, 28 cards, August 2025

The Dragon Rune Oracle is a rich and imaginative system that blends Welsh and Celtic myth, dragon lore, and runic symbolism into a divination tool designed to deepen one’s  connection with primordial dragon energies. Created by Kieron Morgan with rune design by Isedon Goldwing, this oracle aims to help practitioners communicate with dragon guides, receive counsel from ancient dragon clans, and even tap into the voice of Tiamat, the  Queen of Dragons.

One of the best aspects of this deck is the guidebook itself. The deck includes a 107-page guidebook that lays a strong foundation for working with dragon magic in a grounded and structured way.

Morgan provides an impressively comprehensive framework for dragon-based spiritual practice, beginning with preparations for entering ritual space and moving into methods of calling, communicating  with, and releasing dragon energies. He outlines what to do before, during, and after a  reading, and offers contextual lore on the Celtic veneration of land, sea, and sky—an  animistic worldview that situates dragons not as fantastical creatures but as ancient  intelligent forces woven into the fabric of creation. The writing is both accessible and reverent, making the system feel alive and usable for practitioners at any level. 

The organization of the deck is also noteworthy. The runes, each created by Goldwing, are elegant, angular symbols that feel simultaneously modern and archaic. They are  presented through the lens of several dragon clans, each representing a unique energetic signature and philosophical lesson. Cards like Sha’oren (discernment, Akashic memory),  Ratanen (chaos and infinite possibility), and Kaegos (balance through transformation)  illustrate the breadth of perspective offered by these primordial beings.

The spreads included in the guidebook are thoughtful and surprisingly profound in practice, and in my own readings the messages that surfaced, particularly those attributed to Tiamat and to  personal Dragon Guardians, carried a clarity and emotional resonance that felt deeply  authentic.

Where this deck also truly excels is in its metaphysical architecture. Morgan draws heavily from  Welsh and Celtic lore, weaving subtle threads of bardic tradition, ancestral magic, and  poetic inspiration into his descriptions. The runes feel connected to a lineage that values wisdom, transformation, and communion with the unseen realms. The book’s section on  glimpsing the dragon’s realm—a mist-filled, luminous space between worlds—was  especially evocative, providing a mythic backdrop that enhances the reader’s intuitive  engagement with the cards.

However, the artistic choices for the deck itself present a mixed experience. The cardstock is excellent: smooth, sturdy, and comfortable in the hand. The rune symbols are clear and beautifully rendered. Yet every card features the same cloudy gray background with identical lighting, coloration, and dragon-silhouette overlay. While aesthetically pleasing in isolation, the repetition across the entire deck can make the cards feel visually flattened during readings.

The richness of the lore, full of sea-dragons, sky-dragons, deep-ocean  clans, fiery transformative forces, and the ancient cosmic presence of Tiamat, cries out  for more variation in imagery, palette, or environmental cues. Even subtle changes in color tone, texture, or clan-specific motifs could have helped reinforce the distinctions so  thoroughly articulated in the guidebook. 

There are also symbolic omissions that feel like missed opportunities. The guidebook  references the Dragon’s Eye rune, yet this powerful symbol does not appear as its own  card. Likewise, the Welsh druidic symbol Awen, representing the triple rays of divine  inspiration and a central motif in Celtic bardic tradition, seems perfectly aligned with the deck’s thematic focus but is absent from the card set.

Including Awen, or even additional  cards honoring key Welsh mythic figures such as Cerridwen, Gwion, or archetypes of the  Maiden-Mother-Crone, could have further anchored the system in the cultural and  mythopoetic soil from which it draws inspiration. More references to the Celtic triad of  Earth, Sea, and Sky, which are so foundational to indigenous Celtic cosmology, would also have  added coherence and depth. 

Despite these artistic and symbolic limitations, The Dragon Rune Oracle remains a  meaningful and insightful tool. The clarity of Morgan’s writing, the strength of the rune  system, and the structure of the guidebook itself create a pathway into dragon wisdom that  feels both reverent and grounded. The spreads are thoughtfully constructed, the energy work instructions are practical, and the tone of the entire system encourages a sense of  respect and reciprocity between practitioner and dragon guide. For those seeking to  deepen their connection to Welsh and Celtic metaphysics, or to explore dragon magic in a structured and spiritually authentic way, this deck offers a valuable entry point. 

For me, working with the deck produced moments of genuine resonance. The messages  that emerged in readings were potent, often arriving with a sense of mythic clarity— reminders of sovereignty, creativity, personal transformation, and the untamed forces within. While I wished for more visual variety and a fuller embrace of Celtic symbolic traditions, the underlying system is strong enough that the deck still functions beautifully  for meditation, divination, and spiritual communion. 

I recommend The Dragon Rune Oracle to readers who feel called to dragon magic, to  practitioners of Celtic spirituality, and to those seeking a structured yet intuitive approach to working with primordial beings. Its guidebook alone is worth the investment, and with mindful practice, the deck can become a powerful companion on the path of mythic exploration and personal empowerment.

Memento Mori, by Red Wheel/Weiser

Memento Mori: 36 Cards to Embrace Life, by Red Wheel/Weiser
Red Wheel, 1590035860, 36 cards, October 2025 

Memento Mori: 36 Cards to Embrace Life is far more than a simple oracle deck; it is a  contemplative, visually arresting meditation on the universal human experience. Rooted in  the ancient maxim Memento Mori, Memento Vivare— “remember that you will die, do not  forget to live”—this deck offers a uniquely balanced fusion of mortality and vitality.  This 36-cards set invites readers to reflect on the  fragility, beauty, and sacred ordinariness of life through art that is both haunting and deeply life-affirming. 

The first thing that struck me about this deck was its powerful intentionality. Each card  depicts a skeleton—no identities, no hierarchies, no distinctions. Whether a gardener, a  healer, a wanderer, or a childlike rabbit figure, every being is rendered with the same bones beneath the surface. This symbolic leveling highlights the truth at the heart of memento mori: regardless of where we come from or where we believe we are going, we walk the  same path from dust to dust, from life to death. Rather than approaching this with heaviness, the deck uses that equality as a basis for solidarity, compassion, and the celebration of the present moment. 

The artwork is one of the deck’s greatest strengths. Against a cool, subdued gray  background, evocative of ash, stone, and impermanence, vibrant  florals, botanical elements, and richly hued natural motifs are used to create striking visual contrast. The result is a language of opposites brought into harmony: the starkness of bone beside the lushness of life, the quiet of the grave beside the riotous bloom of flowers. Each  card feels like a small fine-point sketch brought to life, full of delicate linework and a painterly use of color that softens the subject matter while also imbuing it with unexpected  warmth. 

The simplicity of the messages is another defining feature. Phrases such as “Hold Space”, “Be the Light”, and “Your Path Is Open” guide the reader toward grounded, practical wisdom.  More than offering predictive statements or metaphysical abstractions, the deck focuses on actionable invitations to presence, kindness, connection, and courage. In a world oversaturated with noise, these short declarations feel like distilled clarity, acting as gentle reminders to inhabit the only time we truly have in the present moment.

The companion text on the introductory card expands on this philosophy beautifully. It  acknowledges death not as something to fear but as something to understand, presenting death as a teacher that encourages us to savor our days more deeply, to notice our habits and attachments,  and to remember that each moment holds the potential to shape the legacy we leave  behind. By embracing the transient nature of our existence, we are invited to live with  greater intention, to love more freely, and to let go of what is unnecessary.

Structurally, the deck is remarkably user-friendly. Its 36-card format feels intentional and  uncluttered, giving each image the space to speak for itself. The cardstock and printing quality, demonstrated in the richly detailed fronts and the elegant skull motif on the card backs, reflect a high level of craftsmanship. The minimalism of the guide materials also supports the deck’s overall theme of nothing extraneous, only what is essential. 

One of the most compelling aspects of Memento Mori is how it frames mortality not as an  imposed limitation but as an invitation. The presence of skeletal figures reminds us that beneath our stories and differences, we are united in our origin and our eventual return to  the earth. Yet the abundance of flowers, animal life, and symbolic objects illustrates that  within that shared trajectory, there is infinite complexity, possibility, and meaning. This interplay makes the deck both meditative and inspiring—a rare duality in oracle systems.

From a practical standpoint, the deck is wonderfully versatile. It works beautifully as a  daily draw, offering a reflective touchstone for mornings or evenings. It can also support  journaling practices, shadow work, grief processing, meditation prompts, or simply  moments of grounding during stressful days. Because the messages are concise, the  cards can be integrated easily into readings with Tarot or Lenormand, adding emotional or  philosophical depth without overwhelming the spread.

Ultimately, Memento Mori: 36 Cards to Embrace Life is a deck that succeeds in delivering  exactly what it promises. It reminds us of our mortality without morbidity, guides us toward  joy without triviality. It reveals the inherent beauty of being human, not in spite of our impermanence, but because of it. For anyone seeking a tool that blends introspection, artistry, and soulful presence, this deck is a powerful companion. 

For me, working with this deck was a quiet yet profound experience. Its imagery  encouraged a sense of reverence for the everyday—an awareness that even the smallest  details of life, from a wilted flower to a fleeting moment of gratitude, carry meaning. It deepened my appreciation for the present and reinforced the truth that to remember we will die is, paradoxically, to remember to live fully. 

I highly recommend this deck to spiritual practitioners, introspective readers, artists, grief  workers, and anyone who is navigating the delicate balance between honoring the past and embracing the future. It is a beautiful tool for grounding, reflection, and reconnecting with  the essence of what it means to be alive.

Crystal Alchemy Oracle, by Kate Mantello and Amy Salomone

Crystal Alchemy Oracle, by Kate Mantello with illustrations by Amy Salomone
Rockpool Publishing, 1923208314, 128 pages, November 2025

Crystals and chakras share a natural harmony, both working through the subtle language of energy. The many crystals and chakras each vibrate at their own frequencies aligned with certain energetic states, which when attuned to can shift one’s state of being, such as deepen spiritual awareness, enhance emotional healing, or promote mental clarity. When used together, crystals can act as tuning tools for chakras, helping to clear blockages, amplify the flow of life force energy throughout the body, and activate the energy of each chakra.

In Crystal Alchemy Oracle, creator Kate Mantello, renown for her work in crystal therapy, brings the vibrational medicine of crystals into a beautifully-structured deck that guides readers in working with crystal energies for personal growth and transformation. Filled with a luminous fusion of crystal wisdom, energy healing, and spiritual insight, each card captures the essence of a specific crystal and chakra while also inviting readers into a meditative dialogue with their own intuition. And thus, the alchemical process begins!

“Life itself is built on the backbone of alchemy, the underlying principle that teaches us that the highest and purest expression of ourselves comes when our energetic offerings are of higher value than the energy we consume to create them. It is the process of turning our fears into strengths, knowledge into wisdom and shadows into light.”6

Within the guidebook Mantello offers plenty of insight about how to best work with this deck. She teaches readers how to understand and use the cards, provides insight on finding one’s own meaning for the cards, shares how to cleanse and protect them, guides how to use the cards intuitively, and offers spreads to use for this deck.

The deck is structured by chakra, which all have their own color. Going beyond the traditional seven chakras (Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus, Heart, Throat, Third Eye, Crown), Mantello also includes the Soul Star Chakra and Earth Star Chakra. For each chakra, there’s four different cards, each represented by a crystal, bringing the deck to a total of 36 cards. The gilded red edges of the card make for a fun shuffle and visually appealing aesthetic.

My initial impression of the deck was that it is whimsical, light, and ethereal. When I first opened the deck and saw the rainbow of colors, I felt a tingle go up my spine, as though just holding the deck made my chakras come alive. The illustrations by Amy Salomone seem to shimmer with the living energy of the crystals themselves. Yet when I dove deeper into the deck, I saw that amid the beauty there was also plenty of deeper spiritual knowledge; it’s not all light and love – the shadow too has a place in this deck as a base to start our transformation with.

Salomone’s artwork, which is delicately layered in a collage-like format, evokes the natural attraction of each crystal while also capturing the chakra energy that the crystal represents. Filled with symbolism, each card has its own special energy that covers the full range of human emotion within the deck. It’s gorgeous how Salomone bridges anatomy, crystals, spheres of light, celestial objects, plants, animals, and sacred geometry to show the progression from the cards representing deep Earth through the human body up to the stars.

The soft yet radiant images create a surreal quality that evokes both the geological beauty of crystals and their metaphysical resonance. These are cards that I absolutely want to keep on an altar where I can see them over and over again to meditate on them daily. Each card feels like a sacred portal, providing the visual stimulus to activate the chakra energy.

One thing I love about Crystal Alchemy Oracle is how you can access the frequency and move through the alchemical process without needing to purchase or work with the actual crystal. This saves a lot of time, money, and energy that would otherwise be spent hunting for the right crystal; the deck is more than enough to activate the energy on its own, making it a potent yet practical tool to have on hand! This also provides new ways to learn about the crystal through Salomone’s symbolic depictions and Mantello’s oracle insights.

For each guidebook entry, Mantello has provided a spirit and shadow keyword, key energies, affirmation, healing opportunity, and crystal alchemy. The crystal alchemy section “includes practical suggestions and prompts” for working the crystal that highlight its properties based on “colour, mineral composition, energy and shape.”7

Together, Mantello’s insights provide plenty for readers to reflect on to assess the current energy in play. Being able to acknowledge the healing opportunity presenting itself and then also read the crystal alchemy section for guidance on what practical things can be done to realign this energy is very useful. I appreciate when a deck is direct yet leaves plenty of room for the reader’s intuition to be heard too, which is just what Mantello has made happen in Crystal Alchemy Oracle.

So far, I keep pulling Star Soul Chakra cards. Mantello explains how this chakra is a very high vibration, connecting acting as a “doorway through which you can connect with your higher self and the spiritual realm.”8 Crystals in this suit, such as Clear Quartz and Apophyllite, have shifted my attention to my greater life purpose and how reaching this potential requires releasing old trauma to allow for deep healing to occur. As I realign my direction right now, it actually feels good to rip the band aid off some wounds I’d been neglecting to truly look at and tend to with care. Based on this guidance, I am spending more time outside having quiet moments to listen for higher wisdom, opening up to the advice of my spirit guides and divine protectors.

Overall, Crystal Alchemy Oracle is a beautifully crafted deck that merges crystal guidance with energy work through the chakras. There’s so many ways one can work with this deck, including for divination purposes, deepening one’s spiritual connection, facilitating personal growth through inner wisdom, or to do energy work. It can serve as a daily source of affirmation, a companion in meditation, or a way to align one’s energy with specific intentions. The versatility of this deck makes it a wonderful, multi-purpose tool.

This oracle deck is ideal for readers who want to deepen their relationship with crystals, energetic anatomy, or intuitive healing. The combination of Mantello’s crystal therapy expertise and Salomone’s ethereal artistry creates a sublime experience that feels nurturing, radiant, and deeply empowering when reading with this deck. It’s perfect for healers, intuitives, and anyone drawn to the subtle conversation between crystals, body, and soul.

Elemental Spells, by Julieta Suárez Valente and Miranda Guerrero

Elemental Spells: Drawing on the Magical Energy of Fire, Earth, Air, and Water, by Julieta Suárez Valente with illustrations by Miranda Guerrero
Red Wheel, 1590035836, 56 pages, 44 cards, October 2025

Working with the elements in magic is one of the most timeless and powerful practices. Fire, Earth, Air, and Water are not only the building blocks of the natural world, but also energetic forces that live within us and shape our experiences. By aligning with elemental qualities, we tap into a balanced system of creation and transformation. Elemental Spells: Drawing on the Magical Energy of Fire, Earth, Air, and Water by Julieta Suárez Valente with illustrations by Miranda Guerrero reminds us that we are part of a greater whole, and through ritual and spellwork, we can harness these energies to bring our intentions to life.

This 44-card deck attunes readers to Fire’s passion and will, Earth’s grounding and stability, Air’s clarity and inspiration, and Water’s intuition and flow. Suárez Valente has designed the deck so that each card contains elemental symbolism that is meant to be activated and bolstered by ritual and spellwork. This deck is perfect for people who are seeking to actively engage in the magical process rather than passively absorb an oracle message, whether this be in selecting the card that feels most resonant for them at the time or being open to following their intuitive pull of the deck to point them in the right direction.

The cards have a soft, neutral tan background, which allows illustrator Miranda Guerrero’s colorful artwork to stand out. At the top of each card, there is the elemental glyph and the name  of the card with a short subtitle for explanation. The banner color and image is the same for each card within the elemental suit.

Next on the card is a short description of the magical significance. Then there’s an image by Guerrero that captures the essence of the card’s focus. At the bottom there are practical instructions for spellwork, rituals, or magical applications, written in a clear, step-by-step format.

Suárez Valente’s suggestions of how to activate the energy of the card through magic are quite varied, as is the range of the cards within the deck. Some cards feature a deity or angels, others an herb or fruit. There’s cards representing crystals, tarot cards, animals and runes, as well as cards depicting specific astrological timing, such as New Moon in a Fire Sign. It’s definitely a mixed bag, blending different pantheons, cultures, and divination methods (astrology, tarot, runes, etc.).

The corresponding spellwork for each card is just as unique. For instance, the card Aeolus: Greek God of the Wind, invites the reader to go somewhere with a blowing breeze and say out loud an invocation to clear away stagnant debris and usher in renewed energy. For Saturn: A Planet Associated with Materialization, Suárez Valente provides a ritual to be done on Saturday using a brown candle and essential oils, specifically sandalwood or myrrh.

Sometimes the ritual or spell given requires multi-day effort, such as with Aphrodite: Greek Goddess of Love and Sensuality, while other times it can be done quickly, such as Whale: Symbol of Emotional Depth that encourages the reader to tap into the energy by look at pictures or listening to their sounds.

The variety of cards and spellwork make for a very fun and interesting card pull each time. I love how I’m consistently surprised. One of my favorite pulls so far has been Financial Healing: Recirculation of Matter. The card states “This exercise is ideal for healing your relationship with money.”8 The exercise was to make a monetary donation to show the universe that I have room in my life for more. Suárez Valente even shares what to say once the donation is made.

Well, right before pulling that card, I had noticed a little girl a few houses down selling bracelets and slime she made. For years, I ran a camp each summer focused on teaching little girls to be entrepreneurial where they spent a week making their craft projects. At the end of the week, we’d hold a sale for family and friends. Walking into my house, I was thinking how much I loved that she was outside doing this on a Saturday, so I went over to buy something, despite my husband’s protests that it wasn’t a necessary purchase. As soon as I got back, I went to work with the deck and pulled the Financial Healing card, confirming that I had made the right choice to spend my money supporting the little girl’s entrepreneurial spirit! I said the words at the bottom of the card out loud and felt the abundance flowing.

As for the guidebook, there’s no specific oracle message for the cards. Rather, Suárez Valente’s focus is on teaching more about each element. She provides a brief introduction about how the cards can be used (either intentionally picking out one that aligns with one’s goals or pulling randomly) and offers spread suggestions. She lists ingredients that might appear in the deck for readers that wish to be prepared. And then she delves into each of the four elements, beginning with fire.

Suárez Valente provides an overview of the element, including its significance in astrology and as a tarot suit. She then covers a few significant correspondence to give more insight into the nature of the element. Then there’s a page that lists all the cards in that element and a page that lists the spell for each of the element cards, which makes it easy to pick out the right card for your intention, if that’s how a reader is using the deck. While each entry in the guidebook is pretty brief, it is enough to foster further elemental exploration.

Overall, Elemental Spells is a very engaging deck that encourages readers to put into action their practical magic for the sake of self-growth, transformation, and manifestation. This deck is best for people who are open to cross-cultural magical inspiration and are willing to learn about and try new magical methods. The approachable spells make this deck suitable for readers of all levels. I really enjoy how the deck is more than just an oracle message; it’s a call to action that invites you to co-create with the elements. The power is within you yet as a reader you learn that by aligning yourself with the greater elemental forces, wonderful things come into being.

Magic Spells Oracle, by Judika Illes

Magic Spells Oracle, by Judika Illes
Weiser Books, 1578639220, 128 pages, 26 cards, October 2025

Looking to infuse your oracle readings with a dash of magic? Magic Spells Oracle by Judika Illes blends practical spellcraft with intuitive guidance, perfect for readers looking to add a bit of ritual to their reading. Illes brings her decades of experience, combining expertise in spellcraft, aromatherapy, and folklore, to this deck, offering readers an opportunity to use their divinations to set their intentions into the world through manifestation.

This deck includes 36 full-color cards along with a 128-page guidebook. Illes has structured the deck based on the elements (earth, air, fire, and water) with two additional balancing cards. Within each elemental suit, individual cards then have a magical correspondence reflective of the elemental energy. As an example, there’s Broomstick in the Air suit, Candle Magic in the Fire suit, Crystal Ball in the Water suit, and Amulet in Earth suit.

In the introduction, Illes explains:

“Magical energy radiates through everything–colors, sounds, fragrances, botanicals, natural phenomena, creatures, and human beings–including you–although how it manifests differs.”9

As someone who enjoys working with elements, believing attuning to them is a powerful way to enhance one’s spell work by grounding the ritual in the rhyme of nature, I appreciate Illes’ sentiment that magic can be found within everything.

The way Illes has offered different facets of each element by having the different cards in the suits further amplifies her explanation that everything carries its own distinct energy. By understanding these magical correspondences, readers gain the opportunity to connect with an elemental is a special way through spellwork and ritual. The cards become a bridge between the physical and spiritual world, creating a clear pathway for one to work their magic.

The deck’s aesthetic feels both enchanting and modern, blending mystical symbolism with a clean design. Each card features a central magical image—daggers, crystal balls, animals, or symbols—encircled within a dark cosmic backdrop, accented by golden details that add a touch of sacred shimmer. To me, the inner black circular design reminds me of peering through a portal! The archetypal symbols on the cards definitely open deeper layers of meaning for those who look closer.

For those who are just discovering their magical power, Illes provides ample information in the guidebook, including guidance on how magic and spellcasting works, how to prepare and cleanse one’s deck, how to create an altar space, and how to use the cards (with layouts). At the start of each elemental section, she also gives an overview of associated deities, what the element does naturally in the world, its spiritual power, and magical uses.

For each card entry, there’s an image of the card, the name and element at the top, an overview of its magical significance, and then a spell or ritual one can do. Most of the spells and rituals can be done with things on hand, but a few might require a bit of planning, prepping, and ingredient gathering.

This is definitely a deck for those seeking to learn more about magic and how they can cast spells to make desired changes rather than a deck that provides specific insight about what energies a moment in time holds. While Illes’ guidance is fascinating and practical, it is not a concrete answer like other oracle decks offer. The focus is less on inner reflection and divine wisdom and more on magical information that one can then apply in their spellwork.

Magic Spells Oracle teaches readers how to shape their own future rather than passively giving them insight into energies of their present circumstances. I’d recommend it for those looking to enhance their foundational knowledge of magic and focus on grounded inspiration about how to bring their desire to fruition. People who like traditional, straightforward oracle advice might find it hard to discern clear messages from the guidebook.

This being said, I do still think the cards can provide super accurate insights. I asked the cards what I could do to prepare for my upcoming labor and delivery (baby #2 is due any day now!) and I pulled Crocodile. This card is part of the Water elemental suit. Part of Illes’ guidebook description reads:

“Crocodiles are simultaneously deadly, dangerous creatures and magical animal allies–in particular, for pregnant and laboring women. In many legends, crocodiles have taught the birthing process to humans. Images or toys of crocodiles in a birthing room are a protection against danger.”10

I was honestly flabbergasted with the accuracy of this card pull! Can you believe the exact situation I asked about is discussed in the guidebook? Prior to this reading, I had no idea crocodiles were a magical birth ally! Now I’m planning on taking the card with me when I head to the hospital.

So, as you can see, the card didn’t give me a specific answer, such as “release fear” or “focus on gratitude” like many oracle cards. Instead, it provided me with a magical way to prepare for what I asked about. This deck calls for readers to be proactive in creating their own outcomes by believing in their magical prowess and utilizing the wisdom that comes through in the reading.

Overall, Magic Spells Oracle by Judika Illes is a well-structured oracle that stands out for its elemental clarity and practical magical guidance. The organization into four elemental suits provides clear, intuitive themes that are easy to engage with. The guidance is ideal for beginners looking to learn more about magic, especially if they have an interest in spellwork. Illes bring decades of experience to life within these cards, offering a wealth of information for those seeking to expand their occult knowledge.

Ritual Earth Oracle, by Andres Engracia and Selena Moon

Ritual Earth Oracle: Spiritual wisdom through rituals, festivals and celebrations, by Andres Engracia with illustrations by Selena Moon
Rockpool Publishing, 1922579599, 128 pages, 36 cards, October 2025

Ritual celebrations, no matter which culture they come from, remind us of our shared humanity. Whether it’s gathering around a bonfire, honoring ancestors, dancing in the streets, or sharing food in sacred company, these moments root us in community and tradition. Even when the customs are from cultures different than our own, they speak a universal language of joy, remembrance, and connection. Marking the turning of time, the cycles of nature, and the milestones of our lives, rituals remind us that across the world, people have always celebrated, mourned, and honored together.

Ritual Earth Oracle by Andres Engracia with illustrations by Selena Moon draws upon the spiritual energies, insights, and celebrations of 36 rituals and festivals worldwide to create a potent oracle deck. With great reverence, Engracia honors the specifics of each culture’s rituals to honor their “own indigenous spirits, folklore, and ceremonies.”11 In the introduction, he also offers guidance on how to use the deck, offering tips for cleansing the deck as well as spreads readers can use for structure.

For each card;s entry in the guidebook, he shares the location of the ceremony or festival, keywords, the card’s significance from an oracle perspective, and information about the ceremony or festival. There’s also a ritual included for readers to tap into the card’s essence, attuning themselves to the spiritual energies of the ceremony or festival described. Most of the rituals are accessible, easy to plan, and doable with supplies on hand.

While I haven’t pulled every card yet during a read, I did take some time to read through the guidebook and found it all absolutely fascinating. Engracia has done a wonderful job in both choosing a diverse array of ceremonies and festivals as well as capturing the heart of what their spiritual intentions are within the oracle advice. Many of the ceremonies and festivals I had never heard of and it was thrilling to learn more about each location’s regional celebrations.

Some of the ones that were new to me included Songkran in Thailand, Butter Lamp Festival in Tibet, Inti Raymi in Peru, Guelaguetza Festival in Mexico, and Matariki in New Zealand. I loved discovering more about the spirituality of these traditions and how they’re celebrated. Even the festivals I was more familiar with – Green Man Festival in Wales, Mardi Gras in New Orleans, Walpurgisnacht in Germany, and Bacchus’s Feast in Rome – were expanded upon by Engracia’s oracle interpretation and informative background context.

Meanwhile, Moon brings these ceremonies to life on each card with vibrant colors and exciting illustrations, inviting readers to physically connect with the energies. There’s distinctly sensual energy to the deck’s images, drawing readers into their bodies as much as their spirits. The lush, layered artwork pulses with rhythm and movement—pulsing fire, swirling cosmic backgrounds, evocative floating masks, and liminal places that seem to breathe on the page.

Moon’s artwork awakens the primal side of ritual that taps into the passion, ecstasy, and the raw joy of being alive. There’s something almost tactile about the imagery, as though you can feel the drumbeats, the heat of the sun, or the press of bare feet against the earth just by holding the cards. She does a wonderful job blurring the line between sacred and sensual, reminding readers of the humanity of these festivities and celebrations, often creating large gatherings of people in which bodies come together to make magic through performance, dance, feasting, and ritual.

The way Moon captures the desire, vitality, and pleasure as powerful forces that are undercurrents to the spiritual expressions of these different ceremonies through her illustrations provides a great balance to the more informative and insightful writing of Engracia in the guidebook. Readers have the opportunity to engage both mind and body, learning about the ceremonies and then also having an image portal to tap into the energy, for spiritual insight.

This balance comes through too in the way the cards are still named for the higher divine lesson they offer rather than the name of the festival or ceremony; the focus is on the spiritual transformation happening while the information about the ceremony provides more insight within the guidebook for spiritual seekers to learn.

Having the cards designed this way offers people the opportunity to do readings without necessarily referring to the ceremony since the name of the card and keywords can be enough for psychic guidance. Though, I still think becoming familiar with the ceremonies, festivals, and rituals associated with each card is the real source of power of this deck!

One of my favorite cards pulled so far is Marigold Dreams, depicting the celebration of Dia de los Muertos in Mexico. Engracia talks about how this two-day festival happens on the first two days in November, coinciding with All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day, describing how families create home altars of departed loved ones adorned with yellow marigolds and photographs. The sage oracle advice he offers is as follows:

“This card urges you to seek comfort in the loving embrace of friends, family or your partner. It is time to rest your body and settle for a while, so slow down, take a breath, and relax. You are not alone and you are not without support.”12

I loved this reminder to tap into the loving support systems I have in my life, including my ancestors who have passed on. I felt so calmed after pulling this card during an especially hectic time. While I didn’t fully perform the ritual Engracia suggests of creating an altar for my loved ones who have passed on, I did take the time to look at photographs I already had up and remember their loving presence.

Overall, Ritual Earth Oracle offers a fresh take on deck design by weaving global cultural celebrations into a spiritual tool. It’s ideal for readers who feel drawn to ritual, folklore, and creative community expression as paths to intuitive insight. This deck invites readers to dance in spiritual heritage, explore multi-culturalism, and discover new perceptions about how their spirit can learn and grow from joining in the celebration. Engracia is a wonderful storyteller who has a knack for distilling the spiritual wisdom within these festivals, while Moon does a wonderful job bringing the essence to life through the deck’s artwork.

LightWeb Oracle Deck, by Joanna Hunter, Anna Babich, and Stephanie Wicker-Campbell

LightWeb® Oracle Deck: Soul Technology, by Joanna Hunter with illustrations by Anna Babich and Stephanie Wicker-Campbell
Muse Oracle Press, 1763586928, 140 pages, 44 cards, October 2025 

The world of oracle cards is brimming with decks that promise to guide, inspire, and deepen our understanding of ourselves and the universe. LightWeb® Oracle Deck: Soul Technology by Joanna Hunter with illustrations by Anna Babich and Stephanie Wicker-Campbell is a standout set, one that takes you on a journey and invites you into the realm of the LightWeb.

“Glimmering in the astral plane is the LightWeb, a glittering web of infinite possibilities and consciousness, where all is connected and everything is possible. A place where we remember our galactic origins and connect with our shared cosmic soul.”13

LightWeb Oracle Deck is designed to help users tap into a type of interconnected web, an energetic framework that connects all beings and possibilities. Hunter calls this structure a LightWeb. Here, the reader may access higher wisdom and foster a deeper relationship with their own intuition. Hunter’s background in energy work and spiritual mentorship is evident in the design of each card and its meaning.

The cards, illustrated by Babich and Wicker-Campbell, are adorned with luminous, ethereal designs that evoke a sense of tranquility. Soft gradients of light blues, violets, and pinks create a radiant effect, inviting the user into a space of reflection. The imagery, a blend of feminine forms, geometric patterns, and cosmic symbols, is both modern and mystical.

The deck is well-crafted, with a sturdy yet flexible card stock that will stand up to repeated shuffling. The glossy finish enhances the colors, making each draw a delight for the senses. The deck is a comfortable size for shuffling and reading, suitable for hands of all sizes. A sturdy box houses the cards and guidebook, echoing the aesthetic of the glimmering artwork

Hunter begins with a card that features a beautiful request for Divine support as the reader works with the cards. This prayer is short, but powerful and will make a nice way to open readings each time. 

After a brief introduction, Hunter shares the four LightWeb Principles: Self-love, Self-mastery, Self-leadership, and Self-empowerment. Next, she provides several good ways to activate your deck. My favorite of her tips is one I have used myself: sleep with the deck next to your bed. You can also add a quartz crystal on top.

After including a brief “How to Use this Deck,” Hunter reveals several spreads and then goes into the card guidance.  At the end of the guidebook, she includes a glossary of terms, as well as information on her “LightWeb Soul Technology and Course.”14

The deck consists of 44 cards, each designed to represent a specific aspect of the LightWeb philosophy. The cards are numbered, to make finding the complementary guidance easy. Themes range from self-empowerment and spiritual awakening to grounding and manifesting. Each card bears one word or phrase, such as “Akashic Records”, “Spirit Guide”, “Light Language”, or “Priestess”, accompanied by a few key words.

For each card in the deck, Hunter uses a very structured approach to the guidance. Each card has a title, key words and information from the LightWeb, as well as clues from the ShadowWeb. She also shares a Transmission of Light, which explains some of the card’s symbology.

Next, she includes a section on Going Deeper, which is the heart of the guidance.  Hunter ends with the LightTool of the Card. This device can be a simple statement, an energy healing tool, or a suggestion for better living. Each one is unique.

The deck’s structure makes it versatile, able to be used for daily single-card draws, more elaborate spreads, or even as a supplement to meditation and journaling practices. The cards offer guidance that feels both specific and open-ended, and I saw this over the seven days I worked with the cards. The themes are universal enough to resonate with a wide audience, but not so broad as to lose their impact. Each card feels like a gentle nudge toward introspection and connection to Divine Source. As I worked my way through the cards, I felt a deepening into myself and a newer form of connection to Divine Source.

My favorite card in the deck is Freedom. The artwork features a carefree woman smiling and enjoying life. The guidance speaks of “Choices. Being free. Self-acceptance. Having fun. Lightest of energies. Joy. Being in the moment.”15

The guidance asks me to journal about freedom and what it means to me. Finally, Hunter suggests that I play some music, move my body, and enjoy freedom. This message was just what I needed for the day after my husband had an accident that landed us in the ER. I was reminded that I WAS free and now both of us were safe and surrounded by the love of our angels and guides.

I plan to add this deck to the stack I have on hand for client readings. The guidance Hunter shares will be a perfect way to end intuitive readings. I will also enjoy using this deck for my daily card readings over the next few months. 

LightWeb Oracle Deck stands out as a luminous guide for those seeking clarity, empowerment, and connection. Its harmonious blend of art, wisdom, and practical tools makes it a joy to use, whether for quick insights or a deeper dive. The deck invites users to step into their own light, trust their intuition, and explore the interconnected web of possibility that surrounds them.  The guidebook’s practical suggestions and gentle tone make it accessible to beginners and advanced practitioners alike.

For anyone drawn to the world of oracle cards, the LightWeb Oracle Deck is a beautiful addition to any collection. It promises not only guidance, but a gentle reminder that we are all connected through the LightWeb, and that our journey is illuminated from within.

Akasha Oracle, by Emily Nicolle and Carla Cartagena

Akasha Oracle: Unlock wisdom from previous lives, by Emily Nicolle with illustrations by Carla Cartagena
Rockpool Publishing,1923208195, 128 pages, 48 cards, September 2025

The Akasha Oracle: Unlock Wisdom from Previous Lives by Emily Nicolle with illustrations by Carla Cartagena is a one-of-a-kind deck that invites readers to explore the limitless depths of the Akashic Records. Through its richly symbolic imagery and intuitive divining boards, this deck opens a channel to the soul’s timeless journey, offering glimpses into past lives, karmic patterns, and spiritual lessons that continue to shape the present and future.

The imagery in this 48-card deck has a striking aesthetic: detailed black-and-white illustrations accented with selective bursts of color. When looking through the cards, I see how the images reflect the deck’s core intention of guiding readers into the shadowy archives of the soul while illuminating hidden truths with the light of wisdom.

There’s something timeless about the monochrome tones of grayscale images, almost as if mirroring memories or echoes of the past, perhaps even the liminal space between lifetimes. Yet the vibrant color accents shine through, reminding me of the flashes of insights that emerge from accessing the Akashic Records: the lessons, gifts, and revelations waiting to be unlocked.

Plant life, specifically flowers, herbs, and trees, also play an important role throughout the deck. Each card pairs its theme  with a specific plant ally—camellia, sunflower, and many others. This connection grounds the cards in Earth-based symbolism, reminding us that even while exploring the soul’s eternal journey, we are still rooted in nature’s cycles and healing energies. The flowers act as guides, softening the heavier themes that come from exploring the Akashic Records. Each card has the plant ally’s name written on it, and there’s also more information about the plant’s symbolism in the guidebook.

 I do find these cards work best with a mutli-card spread, where the cards give insight into each other. Working with this level of guidance requires creating the space to really delve in, draw a full spread, and take the time to sit with the messages that come through. As someone who prefers to pull one card for a quick answer, this deck was an invitation to settle into a more thorough reading, slowing down to really integrate the potent information coming through. Nicolle provides quite a few spreads to choose from in the guidebook, offering a range to fulfill reader’s intentions.

As for the guidebook description of each card, the entries are fairly short. For each entry, Nicolle states directly what the card is showing you, but only in a few sentences. She leaves quite a lot of room for readers to tap into their own intuition and decipher how the message is relevant to their personal circumstance. There’s also a sentence about the symbolism of the plant ally featured on the card for further insight.

This deck is especially powerful in that it bridges the gap between divination and deep spiritual memory work. The spreads aren’t just revealing insights about what is to come. Rather, the cards act as keys, unlocking hidden wisdom and forgotten experiences that can shed light on past blockages or reveal opportunities for future growth; seekers can uncover patterns from past lives, gain clarity about present challenges, and receive guidance on how to align more fully with their soul’s purpose. Yes, this does add the layer of needing to then intentionally work with the information that’s come to light, which isn’t always easy but holds the potential for true spiritual integration and transformation.

Additionally, the inclusion of the divining boards, which Nicolle teaches how to use with a pendulum, offers even more pathways for deck readers to receive information. This enhancing inclusion makes the Akasha Oracle not just a tool for reflection, but a living channel for higher knowledge. The deck becomes more than just another oracle, serving as a portal to higher channeled wisdom.

These first divining board, Place and Era, allows readers to uncover the time period (prehistory, antiquity, middle ages, modern era, and contemporary times), location (Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceania, and America), and if the lifetime was as a man or a woman. The second divining board, Date, goes even further into specific times, offering the chance to figure out the exact day, month, century, decade, unit, and whether it was BCE or CE. These boards can be used to find out more about a past life or to divine the timing of future events.

I definitely recommend journaling the readings done with this deck, as it can be a lot of guidance to take in all at once, and readers may need time to integrate what comes through. I’ve often found that when working with Akashic Records that pieces of a certain lifetime or specific wounds that span lifetimes are revealed in bits and pieces, so as to not overwhelm. Having a detailed record of previous readings will help to keep track of the information that’s coming through, better allowing readers to put together the whole story in a holistic way. Similarly, it’s always great to write down divinations about the future to see how they ultimately manifest.

Overall, Akasha Oracle is perfect for anyone drawn to soul evolution and karmic healing. This deck offers a rare and transformative way to access wisdom that transcends time. The Akasha Oracle serves as both a guide and a key, helping readers access forgotten knowledge, heal wounds from past lives, and realign with their soul’s purpose. Whether looking to understand recurring challenges, discover hidden gifts, or simply connect more deeply with your higher self, this deck provides a sacred space for reflection and revelation.

The Oracle of Rewildling, by Sherry Salman and Alexandra Eldridge

The Oracle of Rewilding: Pathways to Renewing Our Kinship with All Things, by Sherry Salman and illustrated by Alexandra Eldridge
Red Wheel Weiser, 9781578638239, 176 pages, 44 cards, June 2025

In Sherry Salman’s new deck, The Oracle of Rewilding: Pathways to Renewing Our Kinship with All Things, she pays homage to the transformative power of rewilding—both as a practice and as a mindset. The author intertwines fairy tales, ecological insights, and spiritual messages to craft a narrative that is insightful and inspiring. Rewilding, as presented in this deck, is not solely about returning to untamed landscapes but also about rediscovering the instinctive, untamed animal essence within each of us.

Sherry Salman, PhD, LP, is a Jungian psychoanalyst, who teaches and writes for the Jungian Psychoanalytic Association. She also consults for the Archive for Research in Archetypal Symbolism in NYC. Known internationally as a speaker on “the creative imagination in postmodern culture and psychological life”16, Salman’s work has been published in numerous books and journals.  Her book, Dreams of Totality, discusses symbolism and imagination and our struggle with modern living.  You can learn more about Salman on her website.

Eldridge says this about her work:

“My paintings emerge from a place where contradictions are allowed, paradox reigns and reason is abandoned. My search is for the inherent radiance in all things… the extraordinary in the ordinary.”17

The Oracle of Rewilding is a collection of 44 cards and a guidebook that shares a rare glimpse into the kinship between man and the animal kingdom:

“Although we will never really know what it’s like to be a stag or a rabbit, a wolf or a bird, we can still imagine it. In fact, as humans, we have always done so-in art, in story, and in myth.”18

Eldridge uses a combination of the glass plate negatives and the addition of artistic elements to create these windows into the heart and soul of this kinship. The glass plate negatives hail from 1880-1920 and the author explains that this time frame was selected purposefully:

“It was an era when there was excitement about Charles Darwin’s findings that emotions exist in both humans and animals; it was the beginning of land conservation and wildlife preservation, the emergence of modernism in the arts, the invention of photography and the X-ray. Simultaneous with these developments, there was an enthusiasm for peering into the ethereal beyond.”19

Although the glass plate negatives are used as a base for Eldridge’s art, these are only a starting point. For example, Eldridge paints bird, lioness or wolf heads on ladies and fox, stag and goat heads on gentlemen.  She adds angel wings to children and lots of birds and flying insects throughout the deck. Fish, octopus, and other water creatures also come to play.

Although the glass plate negatives would create black and white images, Eldridge has skillfully colorized the images.  Sometimes, she highlights the eyes, sometimes the clothing and other times the background. The colors are soft pastels, reminiscent of colorized versions of these photos from another time. 

To fully explore this deck, I pulled a daily card for seven days.  The cards never failed to mesmerize and bolster me with the guidance and symbolism shared. One of my favorite cards is called Forgiveness. It features a woman in a blue dress with a crisp, white collar and the head of a dove. She is shown handing a rose to a cat on a table. The guidance recommends “it may be time to come home to the tranquility and peace that forgiveness offers.”20

Salman presents a unique way to welcome and honor forgiveness:

“Start with just cultivating the feeling and tangible scent of forgiveness itself. Then let that feeling radiate outward. This takes a lot of practice and includes the soothing of vengeful impulses that persist.”21

I love and appreciate the softness of this type of forgiveness, as well as Salman’s narrative of the myth of the dove in literature and history. Including this information provides a backstory that grounds the reader in preparation for the wisdom that is shared at the end of each section.

One of the best aspects of The Oracle of Rewilding is its lyrical yet accessible prose. The author’s voice is filled with passion and clarity, a rare combination that makes complex ecological and spiritual concepts understandable for a wide audience. The deliberate pacing and vivid descriptions evoke a sense of wonder, pulling readers into a world where each animal, insect, and natural habitat holds a story.

The guidebook is designed for easy navigation with the cards arranged in alphabetical order along with a Table of Contents. Salman explains that she has done so only for the reader’s convenience, and she invites us to use them in a “nonprescribed order.”22 Salman includes a lengthy introduction to the concept behind the cards, including some history, notes about Jung and a discussion of shapeshifting. She also includes two ideas for card spreads.

The guidebook includes a four-color copy of each card, a brief description of the card images, keywords, and the background of the card.  The final entry is guidance or wisdom. At the back of the book, Salman includes a list of books for further reading. 

The cards are standard card size and are printed on good quality card stock. The edges are dipped in silver and the back of the cards features a soft mauve background and a white bird. The cards also feature a matte finish, which blends well with the feel of the artwork.  The kit is housed in a beautiful two-part box with an indentation for the cards. The box color is also mauve.

The inside of the box features a frog; the box lid highlights a jackrabbit and the back showcases four of the cards.  On the cover, Eldridge has chosen to feature two women wearing the heads of crows, paying homage to the card entitled Divination. While the box cover is printed with a matte finish, Eldridge has added stamped, silver type for the title, corner accents and other bits of type around the edges of the box lid. The effect is quite striking.

Whether you are an environmentalist, a mystic, or simply a seeker yearning for a deeper connection to the natural world, The Oracle of Rewildling holds profound messages and guidance.  The images will awaken new insights and whisper magical words of hope and inspiration. I recommend this deck for any level of oracle or tarot reader.  For those who might get lost in some of Salman’s Jungian prose and mythology, you can go directly to the section called “When this card appears” and enjoy the wisdom she shares.

Every card I pulled left me with significant guidance to ponder or a new view of my world.  The interplay of poetry, prose, and evocative imagery ensures that every page delivers a beautiful experience and allows individuals to seek wisdom tailored to their unique journey.
