My name is Rachele and Amethyst Ascension is the place where I share my passions with the rest of the world. Those passions are Spirituality, Mythology, Tarot, Oracle, Astrology, Dream work, Ancestral Work, Past Life Work, and my practice in general.
I have many different series and topics ranging from Tarot to Aliens, Anunnaki to Astrology, Fae or Sidhe to Psychic Abilities and how to develop them. I have interviewed many other spiritual and magical people in our community about their lives and paranormal experiences.
I do reviews of decks and books and share my digital journaling. I am also a new creator of several oracle decks and digital journals and all of my links can be found here on my profile.
If you would like me to review one of your decks please be sure to contact me via my email down below.
These are really great tips. Thank you for sharing! I’ve definitely become more cautious after a recent bad experience. Honestly was hesitant in the first place and didn’t follow my instincts. Bad move. Always trust your gut instincts!
Oooooh I have a thought. Maybe the betrayal came from your sibling? Still feel very strongly that it's some Inner Earth past life, and all of that traveling and traversing the dimensions makes sense with Inner Earth beings - they channel down into our dimension (or up, if theyre below us, lol), for better or for worse, to try to wake up people in this reality. Sooooo juicy and intriguing. Thoroughly enjoying watching your process. ❤ Youre amazing
Yes it was definitely something like that for sure. I do remember all of the information that came from Corey Goode about his visits to the Inner Earth, and seeing the room with the Egg shaped chairs and connecting with people on the surface telepathically. I didn't think about it being a sibling who betrayed me, but that kind of makes sense also because of my identity being the Sibling of someone who played a important role in my life. Thank you for bringing light to that, I didn't see that until this. 💖
Not your past life making you sound like you're an inner earth 4th dimensional druidic being!!! That's so cool!!! I absolutely love how you put this together. I'm super duper behind, but I am adoring and loving your thoughts and dedication in showing us all how you set up this kind of reading. Truly inspirational and I cannot wait to dive into my own lives. Hope you are well ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much sweet lady. I do love doing Past Life Exploration. I definitely think it can shine light onto some of the things that we are drawn to and experiencing in this life. It is the ultimate form of shadow exploration if we choose it to be. Thank you so much for stopping by and your kind words, it is always so greatly appreciated. ❤
I raced to get this deck when I first saw it, I do genealogy and wanted this deck to represent my South Dakota Farmers side of my family for my ancestral readings. Love these cards.
Oh isn't this just the most beautiful deck! I love that you are using it for genealogy. That is wonderful. Thank you so much for watching and commenting. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Rachele for doing this video! As someone who has never backed anything on kickstarter before, this was really helpful for potential future backings! 🧡
Thank you so much sweet lady. The majority of my experience on Kickstarter has been very positive, however there have been a few times now that it hasn't been, so I just wanted to share. Hopefully this will help someone in the future navigate that platform with a little more understanding. ❤❤❤
I'm sure you will still be able to grab some of her decks soon if you desire. I put a link in the description for her website for updates. Thank you darling. ❤
Oh congratulations on backing your first deck! It is a wonderful platform, and I love supporting others in their creative pursuits. I am so pleased that you found this useful. Thank you so much. ❤😍❤
Well Said Rachele ! 🥰I wish this had been up when i was starting kickstarter.This should help a lot of people to get started on Kickstarter. I was intimidated when i first started especially when the second kickstarter i ever did, i got B------ out. I left them a couple of messages in the middle of the night because that is when i am awake and most people just check their messages when they wake up but this person was very mean to me when i had no idea what i was doing. She was mad because i contacted her at like one and two am. I was just worried that i had done something wrong and needed her assistance but the way she spoke to me in the email made me cry. It was a dragon tarot ( NOT THREE TREES TAROT) I love three trees tarot 🥰 I was spending a lot of money trying to support this person. I bought like the whole set up and to this day, it has been a couple years, can i even look at it. It is stuffed in the back of my closet. Hopefully one day i can get over the hurt and negativity so i can use it, it was really cute but every time i looked at it , it made me feel sad 😔I understand that creators are going through a lot of stress but as a backer i did not deserve to be treated that way especially since i said noting wrong , i was just asking for help navigating the website so i didn't miss out. I have since backed about ten more with no problems at all, but that almost scared me away from doing it. I really think your video was very helpful! 😊I adore your "The Magic of Samhain Oracle"! It is perfect! Right up my alley 🥰Much love and many Blessings and have a nice day! 💜💜💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🤗🤗
I’ve been away for quite a while, so it was lovely to come back to see this video of yours full of great advice! I haven’t yet been able to back a deck on Kickstarter, and watching this eased my nerves at the idea of doing so and gave me some very helpful details to look for as well. Also, I absolutely loved the flip through of Lisa Papez’s beautiful new deck! Ooh, and the jewelry you described making sounds positively stunning. I hope you’re doing well, Rachele 💜✨
Well hello there sweet lady. So nice to hear from you again. I hope all has been well with you. Lisa's deck is so cute and such beautiful quality. Thank you so much for watching. ❤❤❤
Thank you for this video. I appreciate the information because I never backed a deck but I'm interested in starting. What a beautiful deck you showed 😍
Thank you so much sweetheart. It is just a few things that I have found with my experience with them thus far. The majority of my experiences have been very positive. Sending you love always beautiful. ❤
I do love Kickstarter and I love supporting others when I can. I have had a few bad experiences but the majority has been very positive. Lisa's deck is so cute and there new one that is coming out is also super cheeky and cute...LOL ❤😂😍
Great video! I love Lisa’s deck so much! I wish I could have gotten the standard, but I love the mini to pieces. She ran a perfect KS - I love how much she kept us in the loop for every step. 😊💛✨
These are all such great points!!! Yes, things can totally come up that are outside the creator's control but communication is *always* within the creator's control. I think another reason I like to back projects by people who back others' projects is because then I know that they have been a backer and know what that's like - they're more likely to see things from a backers point of view - and understand stuff like how important it is to stay in touch and keep people posted. 90% of the time, Kickstarter backers are super patient *as long as* you are responsive. Most of the complaining comments I see on Kickstarter are people saying "even if there's no news - or bad news - just keep us informed!". This was all really good advice! And thanks for the kind words! 🥰🥰🥰
I love Your Unicorn's Journey Tarot Lisa 🥰It's so good!🥰It came out even better than i had hoped for and it was the easiest project i ever backed! Well done! 🤗🤗❤❤Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤❤
OMG... the mini is sooooo cute. I think the secret to any crowd funding is not to jump in uninformed. Some artists are really great at communicating, and others are kind of quiet. Just because they are quiet doesn't mean they are not doing the work. Slow and steady also brings you a deck. I agree that social media presence is a really nice way to check an artist out. Key to me, and I believe Lisa also gives this advice. The artwork has to be finished before I back. Granted, I haven't backed nearly the quantity you have, but I have never had an issue. Sometimes, it takes a long, long, long time (hi Bonestone and Earthflesh!), but yeah, people with a long-term social media presence are more likely to protect their reputation.
I completely agree, however I do think that keeping the people informed is one of the most important aspects of running a kickstarter campaign. It is the ones that are not regularly updating, that can leave a whole bunch of uncertainty for those backing the project. Because many people have been burned by these campaigns, so a little communication goes a long way in easing those feelings. Thank you sweet lady, you are appreciated. ❤
Another tip, if this is not a creators first campaign you can go back and look at the comments from their other campaigns to see if there are any red flags.
Disclaimer: Even though I am doing a walk through of Lisa Papez's new deck I am in no way saying that she believes as I do. These are my opinions only. I am doing a walk through of her gorgeous new deck because it was my most recent Kickstarter deck. 💖
Good evening Rachel 😍 ❤. Very nice new deck presentation. These look so beautiful . I really love the artistry within all the different decks. I hope everything is going well in Your Life 💕😍🙃💘💞💌🧜♀️. Mark Bensette Aux Bois 🇨🇦.
Thank you so much, I appreciate it. This deck in both versions is so gorgeous. I agree with you about the original borders for this deck, but how fun is the travel version also...LOL ❤❤❤
LOL I understand darling. The character cards are really good and the price on that big deck is so inexpensive for what you get really. It is hard to resist...😂
I completely understand. I don't dare put that limitation on myself, because I'll probably buy just to spite myself....giggles. It is truly such a beautiful deck. Thank you so much sweet lady, I appreciate you so very much. ❤❤❤
Isn't is so amazing! I know this is a Venus deck, but I really feel like this is very balanced in the Masculine and Feminine energies also! It is so stunning. Thank you so much beautiful. You are greatly appreciated! ❤❤❤
I agree completely. It was very kind of her to give discounts to everyone that uses that code. She is such a wonderful lady, and her creations are so beautiful. I love them all...LOL Thank you so much my friend, you are appreciated! ❤❤❤
I just received this beautiful oracle...it is so much more beautiful in person...I chose the linen cardstock which is wonderful and durable...for me, this will be an ancestor deck
Oh my goodness, thank you so much. That just made my day. I hope you enjoy it so much. It is a wonderful deck and I love that you are going to use it for Ancestor work! ❤❤❤
I love the decks you used. Robyns reflection showed a día de los muertos and for me and my heritage they were perfect. Carrie has an incredible RU-vid channel and if you join her discord you can get the spreads in pic format. You have become one of my fav RU-vidrs. You, Carrie, Ivy and Robyn’s reflection. Thank you for making wonderful videos and content.
Oh thank you so much, you are very kind to say that. I don't have the dia de los muertos deck, but I bet that can be a wonderful deck for ancestry for sure. Carrie's channel is amazing and so are all the channels you mentioned. Blessings to you, thank you. ❤❤❤
I agree, the border is so gorgeous and it definitely changes the look of it. It just steps it up and makes it look so decadent and elegant. Thank you so much. ❤
Oh the four of wands is illustrated. I think you mean the five of wands, but I haven't noticed much of that at all in this gorgeous deck. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Oh I'm not sure I noticed that. I will have to compare them later to see. I wonder if the gold borders makes it appear that way. I do love them both though. Thank you so much sweet lady. 😍
I love the travel size without the borders and the size. I think I’m going to be adding more minis into my collection. That Empress & Star card are everything. I like how in the ten of wands, he’s carrying a load, but is standing tall instead of bent over. I really love that. Love all the Knights as well. Such beautiful art! I don’t have a fine art deck yet, so this is a contender. Writing a book is a big undertaking, but it’s going to be so satisfying when you see the words in print. ❤ Thank you for sharing beautiful lady & the lighting was fine for me. 😊💛✨
Thank you darling, you are always so kind and supportive. You are greatly appreciated. These are both absolutely beautiful decks. Thank you so much my friend. 😍😍😍
