I recently had the pleasure of reviewing an oracle deck called Spirit de la Lune created by Marissa Rankin and Rachael Caringella of Tree Talker Art.

Firstly I love the holographic Moon-Glowing box - it delites my Faerie Heart - soooo magickal!

Then when I open the box the card backs are are Moon-Circle Round and perfect for shuffling in their thickness and weight plus they offer more magickal silvery glowing holographic graphics sparkling with sacred geometric patterns.

So, for my birthday reading I pull a card for my year ahead and I sit psychically with the card for a bit.

Then a message comes to me intuitively:
“Get down to it.
This is it!
Center yourself in your Magic.”

I feel a space opening within me as though this Moon-Shaped Card is inviting me to make space for the possibility of excellence and I’m inspired to jot down my year-goals in my Moon Journal.

Note to self: “Oh GOOD! This is a deck with a practical, applicable vibe - I love a good list!” (Virgo that I am).

Card Chosen: Full Moon Fulfillment 21

Next I turn to the Guidebook and it’s soooo thick and juicy with wisdom - yum!

A Snippet of Wisdom from the Guidebook:
”I embody my magic, I embody my womb, I embody the power of this Full Moon!”

PERFECT!!!

More Guidebook Wisdom:
”Take a salt bath…honor your energy…celebrate your tribe.”

Summary

All in all, the Spirit de la Lune Deck has symmetry; its finely etched, magickal, glowing powers simmer and bubble beneath the surface to speak to our Moon-Hearts; wise words of magic with a grid-like geometric precision. The cards are filled with Moon paintings and with Rachael’s beautiful animal paintings too within a geometric mandala such as “Wolf Moon” - to help us sharpen our instincts.

There are several oracle card spreads within plus their meaning along with 16 Full Moon Mandala (‘Moondala’) cards (for the BIG picture) ie. Pisces/Aries Moon Cycle for the Seed Moon representing New Growth. There are also Eclipse cards and a Super Moon card along with 28 Moon phase cards for Daily Energy readings plus 12 Zodiac Mandala Cards.

Obviously a whole lot of research and interpretation has gone into this deck that includes an exploration of Moon Ceremonies which can be further explored on the website: Spiritdelalune.com

I look forward to trying some of the oracle card spreads mentioned to further deepen my own intuitive, psychic, clairvoyant divination practice in tune with Mama Moon.
