It's funny that you had such a bad reaction to that last card, because I didn't like it much at first either. But then, when I asked my daughter, who's 6, to pick a card, that's the one she chose! And so I looked closer to explain it to her and I saw it... the smile - think Mona Lisa - it's the beginning of the cheeky smile that kids get when they have a secret that they know you know, but they're not going to tell you what it its anyway. The eyes: they are piercing for when children see right through the BS with which you're trying to protect them from the world. The octopus tendrils are the loose, matted hair of a wild child, running freely and with abandon The windmill is the adventure pulling them forward and causing the hair to stream with motion The fish is the companion (Flounder to Ariel) a teddy bear of sorts, reaffirming the need for comfort in young children. They want to adventure, but need reassurance. The jellyfish tentacles remind us that children can be sharp and vicious beneath the surface if you aren't careful. They reflect their environment. If you nurture and love then they'll grow and bloom [a bloom of jellyfish] but if you poke and prod they'll retaliate in any direction. It's a metaphor for a particular stage of youth or youthful state of being. Well that's what I got from it anyway and now it's one of my favourites. Funny huh?!
I'm getting ready to finally do my video on this deck but wanted to see what others thought first. I love this deck and it reads great but I do veer from the guidebook quite a bit. The images and even keywords are great but they take me different places than what the book says. There are so many cards that are a combination of tarot cards or what may come right after or in between certain cards. It's very much a deck about queenship, growth and expansion to me. ❤️ Oh, and I almost took the last card out also but I kept it in, it's my warning card... a jellyfish sting that can sneak up on you. ;-)
This was one of those decks that I couldn’t say no to. For whatever reason I kept coming back to it. Back and forth for months with it. I kept dreaming about it and finally just bought it. Once I had it I had an issue with the card titles, so I chopped them off. It reads clear for me, and I also can’t put my finger on why it reads so well. While I wish the deck as a whole was more inclusive in its imagery, I still love it. I always love your walk throughs.
Eva actually reminds me of the character poison ivy from batman and comics. Who uses plant toxins and mind-controlling pheromones. She’d mesmerize and manipulate people around her and had a poisonous kiss lol. I think she actually had a snake as well or used to do things with their venom.
Terrific! Thank you for taking the time & effort to go through this deck in such detail ... fascinating & very enjoyable to hear what you thought. Of course, i want it now! 😂❤️🌻
I thought this was a deck I did not need to buy. That was before I watched your video. Now, I feel like ordering this one very soon. LOL! The artwork is beautiful AND interesting with all the thought-provoking details. And I like the box and also the card backings. Thank you very much for this walkthrough!
I always read the guidebooks but this deck, because of how the metaphorical, whimsical images are so powerful and can be perceived in such a broad spectrum, the text on the cards are not all that important for me. I will likely read them more as I do the SoulCards, which I’ve had for twenty years and is my most reliable turn-to over the years.

Yupp still MEH TY for the time you spend and the money you save me.
I think that mixing cultures in oracle or tarot decks is not helpful because it is very hard to connect intuitively with decks that you don't understand the symbolism of. Also, we humans, respond emotionally to familiar things much more than to things that are foreign to us.
I love this deck, it’s completly my style of art, with plenty of poetry, flowers. It’s very feminin, realistic but mysterous and strange. Thanks for your video and have a nice day.
You pulled "EVA". Is this that deck?........Your candor is amazing and refreshing.🌻 P.S. "Day & Night" is a Hopi maiden. Her hairstyle tells you she is a very young girl/virgin.
I have just sat down with my cocoa to watch this ... to see if you and I are in agreement ... and we are. My brain ached from trying to connect the titles with some of the images and then connect them with some of the definitions. That ‘All is connected’ one had me scratching my head and going ‘what?!!!’. I love the art but this reminds me of a few other oracles I own, where the whimsical and elaborate titles confuse rather than enhance my understanding. I will persevere with this, since it was a gift, but I wish it was a little more straight talking.
There’s something about some of the art that reminds me of the Nicoletta Ceccoli art..... I’ve just started working with this deck. Some of the pictures are not my favorite but it does read really well. I can’t put my finger on it either. Great video. 🌼🌸🌷
LOL That's what I said about the deck, as well -- soooo white! And it definitely has a softer, more feminine theme to it. Card number 38 (Lullaby) is a favorite and one of the cards that called me to buy it. I do love the Victorian-esque antique yet otherworldly/daydreamy feel to the cards. Overall, it's a keeper!
Hi 🙋🏻, i just paired this deck with the FOUNTAIN tarot and wow- i know you like the fountain tarot... let me know what you think if you try the pair :-)
Back now that I have this deck and I have to say, it's not one I find suitable for day to day readings. It seems to suit better for creative project readings.
Hello Wendy :) I actually just put the enrollment live here: www.thetruthinstory.com/product-page/beginning-geomancy-class :) Thank you so much for your interest!!! :D
