Not the best photo but the latest little baby cardi for a local charity group. My box is getting fuller for them. Thank the gods for something to keep my hands busy while covid runs wild.

DinoMom I am envious of people who have the knitting and crochet skills. It‘s lovely. 2y

This just came in the mail yesterday. I‘m always trying to find better ways of caring for myself especially during the crazy times we are living in.

One of my #newyear #resolutions was to embrace my intuition. I‘ve been exploring crystals and tarot as part of that goal. (I‘m already into essential oils, astrology, and meditation). The Spirit Almanac recommends getting a tarot deck that resonates with you. I have an old Rider-Waite deck, but it has never resonated with me. Any recommendations for #tarot decks? 🔮

NotAJot I like the Druid Craft Tarot Deck - the artwork is beautiful and I prefer the Druid re-imagining of some of the cards 😀 5y
Weaponxgirl I like the wild unknown deck but the best thing to do is look at a few different ones and see what you are personally drawn to. I‘ve got a few different ones now that I use for different moods 5y
REPollock I use the Crowley deck. I don‘t care for Crowley himself but the woman who did the art for the cards made some really cool images. 5y

nudibranch Agree with @Weaponxgirl , the wild unknown tarot is great. Although it's also a lot of fun to out together a tarot deck of your own, starting with a blank deck 😊 5y
Weaponxgirl @nudibranch I would love to do that but I haven‘t got the talent vs how much of a perfectionist I am when it comes to that sort of thing. 5y
nudibranch @Weaponxgirl Haha yeah, it's a lot of work for sure! I've seen some really great collage decks, though, too. 5y
Weaponxgirl @nudibranch oh I admire the people who do it so much! I just know that I would be stuck playing the fool trying to get the fool right for years and getting cross with myself 😂 5y
catiewithac @NotAJot @nudibranch @Weaponxgirl @REPollock thanks for sharing your recommendations! There are so many great decks out there that it‘s hard to choose. But I think I‘m going with Morgan Greer! (edited) 5y
