These cards are pretty beaten and worn from lots of being shoved in my backpack, but to give you an idea of what they look like, here’s a picture I took when they were first made
Pictured: The Sprout, The Arrow, The Vine, The Sun
They’re made from those little paint-chip things you get at hardware stores. I tore them off the metal clasp that keeps them together and drew something of meaning on each. The following are the cards and what they mean!
You may recreate this deck however you like! It’s completely of my own creation, and I think that it’s a great starter deck for anyone getting into oracle readings. It’s simple, small, and minimalistic.
The Sprout – New Beginnings The Grass – Small growth in many areas / experimentation / change / “jack-of-all-trades” The Vine – A path / a journey The Wheat – Practical prosperity The Animal – Instinct / natural order / truth Mars – Everything that the *astrological* Mars stands for, especially anger and passion Venus – Everything that the astrological Venus stands for, especially mother figures, femininity, and love Saturn – Everything that the astrological Saturn stands for, especially knowledge, discipline, and authority Jupiter – Everything that the astrological Jupiter stands for, especially knowledgable insight, positivity through hope or thankfulness, and justice The Waves – Change and underlying feelings Water or The Tear – Emotion, especially sadness The Clouds – Indecisiveness (reversed being clarity) The Mountains – Stability The Crystal – The material and practical, usually positive The Air – Change, especially lightheartedly or “going with the flow” / may stand for being unsure The Lyre – Positivity, gaiety, and Apollon The Sun – Positivity, prosperity, and sometimes guidance The Moon – Mother figures, protection, and secrets The Energy – Positivity, a high point, a focus The Ward or Negative Energy – Negativity and all bad things The Cake – Rewards, especially ones that are of momentary excitement instead of long-term helpfulness The Hammer – Hard work (also Ares) The Arrow – Love, a path/trajectory, and Aphrodite Space/Astrology – Prediction, infinite possibility, and inspiration Divination/Insight – Insight, advice, and magic
Feel free to reblog and recreate! If you re-make my deck, I’d love to see it! Send me pictures!
