I was at the bookshop last night , again on a quest to find another fairy
deck ( no luck ) , when I saw a small face peering out at me . Picking the
box up I thought , Ah ! So you are the froud faeries ......and on a whim bought them . ( Sorry ...that sounds bad . I , er , invited them home .)
I have looked at the cards , and did do one draw ( below ) but really want
to know what kind of readings I can expect from these cards . I've been
using tarot since I was a teenager , but have no experience of oracle cards.
A quick flick through the book's introduction stated that readings would be
"light hearted" , but I was a little sceptical about this ! Some of the images
on the cards look rather dark to me ! Do these cards never deliver bad news ? What's your experience ?
Anyway , I asked what I should be focussing on right now in life and drew
the blank faery guide card !! As I have not had time to meet my own guide
I asked the cards which faery in the deck , in their opinion , would approximate my guide . Got card 16 'the bright mother ' . Went back to the book ..... she feels not unlike the Empress (tarot ) , tho' I may be totally wrong to cross reference . But ...actually makes alot of sense . I think that this is a time in my life where I need to create new opportunities / experiences and yes ..... I think there was also a message there to nurture my relationship with significant other .
One last thing ...... these faeries came across as pretty sexual ! I don't think it was just a case of their not wearing clothes !! ( I've seen other 'naked' tarot decks/ cards etc etc and as I remember , my response was quite dispassionate/objective . ) This was totally unexpected !!!! Hmm ...
Edit : "bright' not "earth " . Tarot conditioning there .
