I'm going to get more serious with reading oracle decks when I get the Earth Wisdom oracle. Right now I only have one that isn't Lenormand (Oracle of Visions). I realize that oracles can be much more personal than universal in the way that tarot is (I intend to stay well away from "angel" cards and that whole industry), so methods of reading them can be anything that strikes your fancy. It's probably telling that there is no "Oracle Spreads" sub-forum here.
I like at least a little bit of meaningful pattern and flow in my layouts, and I like to create my own. I'm assuming that the LWB or companion book for an oracle deck will go into the subject regarding that creator's particular vision, but I was wondering if there is anything more cross-cutting in terms of spread design. Of course, I could always use the same approach I use for tarot spread creation, but I'm looking for a new direction.
Any recommendations or ideas?
