I\u2019ve started a fun new project<\/a> that will include oracle card readings & discussion, journaling prompts & printable grimoire pages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been using oracle cards in my daily life, as well as for story inspiration, so I\u2019ve spent the last few months building Sister Moon<\/a><\/strong> where I\u2019ll explore various decks more deeply, as well as work toward creating my own oracle decks! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve had so much fun coming up with perks and special offerings for everyone. What I want most is a community to discuss readings and to share our love of oracle cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you\u2019ll join me<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
