A little musing and play with the What Three Words of my favourite spot.

I will be sharing more writing on my Substack when the whimsy takes me there.

I've been trying to sit with what direction to take this part of me on.

I've have changed a lot since I started my socials in 2018.

What I'd like to know is where people are needing help, guidance, or are struggling right now.

I'm very much aiming in my work to help empower people to navigate their own paths, and was hoping to see what areas people need help with.

I'm not offering magic wands that will sort your life out for you, but possibly tools or ideas to help with that.

So let me know what could help you on your path. Feel free to inbox if you'd like to share that privately rather than on this post.

The next catch up post is for the Wandering Witch Oracle by MJ Cullinane.

As with all MJ's Decks the artwork is beautiful and unique.

The guidebook is incredible, insightful and full of wisdom as all MJs work contains.

I have shared three of the stories from the November Alchemical Composting workshop with (You should do this if you get the opportunity)

This is the fourth and final story that came from that weekend. It is still raw as it was that day, but here is the link to my substack post with it.

The next catch up post is Bonestone and Earthflesh Tarot.

This was incredibly popular and desired when released as an Indie. And I can see why. I won't be trying to get an Indie version (due to price tags involved) so there won't be the indie/mass comparison to know or show any differences.

The artwork is beautifully illustrated and has movement and symbolism in them.

It has a rich and deep book with so much extra texture to the deck.

I've been listening to my body and energy levels this past 6 months or so. When I feel depleted or low, or even just comfortable where I am at, I have allowed myself to rest or leave things be.

It is allowing me to take time to discern where I put the capacity that I do have. It has been refreshing and I may talk on that soon. Until then....

This is a from November (I am hoping to get new videos up soon - there is still lots waiting to unbox)

This on is the Lost Oracle by Fiona Horne.

I love the muted palette backgrounds and how it allows they contrast and pops of red, black , white and occasionally green through out.

The messages in the guidebook seem to be a nice beginner/intermediate level guidance to it.

Well worth having a look at the video, to get a feel for it. You can watch that here - https://youtu.be/uyt1Rpna-Jg or via the links in my bio.

I hope your 2026 is starting in easefully.

I know I've seen around that a lot are eager to get the year of the Horse going, with some "professional" pages doing posts about it being that already. Unfortunately, Chinese New Year isn't until February. So, we're still in that beautiful Snake energy.

Anyways, let's have a pull shall we? If you'd like a card pulled from this deck, just comment on this post. Pull offerings close when you can now longer comment.

I'm rearranging the Tarot room, so I'll be pulling between sorting.

Moving 500+ decks, and all the books in here was not fun 🤣

I am wishing you all a safe evening and blessings for the incoming year. May this year be smoother, healthier,and filled with growth, peace and magic for all./

I am now signing off for 2025.

I have finished off the last of the Year Ahead readings.

I will be back to messages tomorrow during the day.

The next is Arcanum Tarot by Lo Scarabeo, one of those that are part of the Total Tarot magazine collaboration.

This deck has a popular art style, with ethereal feels to them, and a mix of photo and artwork collage.

I have a heavy negative that this deck is a white wash. There is no diversity at all in this deck.

The card stock is the same as all Lo Scarabeo decks. Thin but good quality cardstock, matt printed that smoothly moves over itself with ease.

The next live on the YouTube channel is the Universal Celtic Tarot by Lo Scarabeo, this is the version that came with the Total Tarot magazine.

This had beautiful artwork, that isn't my favourite style but I can still appreciate it.

It features stereotypical imagery of a Celtic deck, from all the cultural areas that are considered Celtic. I'd say it is what is describes itself in its title, but nothing outside of typical depictions. There's no new angle or deeper connection to definitive specifics. But if you like generic homogenous Celtic themed decks then this ticks those boxes.

If you're looking for one that honours the various individual cultures and identities that exist within that blanket label of "Celtic" then this may not be the deck for you.

The next is Tarot Illuminati from Lo Scarabeo as part of the Total Tarot Magazine collection.

This deck was incredibly overstimulating by the end of this exploration - which surprised me for a deck I have wanted for a few years. There were lots of bright colours and unnecessary layers. It is also very White-centric.

The art style felt jarring to me personally. The people in the artwork are somewhere between drawn, CGI and photographic in a way that unsettles me.

I did enjoy the deck and the symbolism. It has a Tudor energy to it, and the Tudors are a special interest of mine. I am watching a Tudor history YouTube on the split screen as I'm writing and scheduling this post, ironically.

It wasn't an awful deck. It just felt loud and overly busy. The card stock is thin but great quality. Matt printed stock, that slides smoothly over itself and has a decent weight to it as you hold it in hand.
