Product Information

On The Tarot’ gives some thorough information on how to use the cards, which includes; using the cards regularly, how to phrase a question, taking time to do a reading, tarot journalling, and tarot as the mirror of your life. The Minor Arcana (0-21) are all about beginnings and first steps. This means that they are associated with concepts like trust, courage, new beginnings, and growth. So if you’re having a difficult time figuring out what your dream is all about, try looking at these cards first. Each card is a delight in itself, with sensual images and vibrant colours. For example, card XXII, Intuition, depicts a cloaked woman sitting on a golden throne. In her right hand, she cups a sphere. Inside the sphere is the cosmos. Sitting atop the sphere is an owl. In the foreground, there is a spider’s web which contains a spider and a full moon. This is the card of the unconscious mind and intuitive skills and feelings.

Heal – there are experiences in your past that can do harm in your present because you have bound them to you by holding on to the emotions and beliefs they have fostered. These bonds are the foundation of all that limits and restricts you in the present, and prevents you from moving forward with confidence and trust. Awareness will help you heal and let go. Another example would be if you’re seeking guidance on a personal decision you’re facing. The Justice card might represent what’s best for you in this case, but you may need to explore other options before making a decision. The tarot can help guide your exploration by pointing out potential pitfalls or hidden truths along the way. The Minor Arcana Seek – reveal the answers to the questions within. Learn who you were, who you are, and who you wish to become. The tarot will help you communicate with the Divine, and your inner self; know your conscious mind, and explore the unconscious forces – the hard-wired beliefs and patterns that influence your behavior and choices. Knowledge is power. Self-knowledge and awareness are the keys to empowerment.

Now onto the Minor Arcana. It’s presented in a similar fashion to the Majors. The cards are grouped in their suits with keywords, key phrases and meanings for both the upright and reversed positions. The only difference is that there’s only one set of meanings provided rather than the past, present, future groupings found for the Majors. Spreads The Dreams of Gaia Tarot is designed to help readers connect with their intuition and divine guidance. The 78 cards are divided into four suits: Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles. Each suit has 14 cards, making it easy to read tarot readings for yourself or others. As you can see, it makes for an interesting approach and one that becomes easier to understand once you see the groupings.

These cards represent different aspects that have a major impact on our ability to make choices and act upon them. If you are a supporter of the arts, and of Ravynne's art, know that a few dollars a month - less than what you would spend on a cup of coffee - can go a long, long way to bringing more beauty and magic into the world. For example, if you are looking to gain insight into your creative side, you might choose the Temperance card in the Major Arcana. This card suggests slowing down and taking time for yourself – something that can be difficult to do when we’re constantly bombarded with demands from the outside world.The images feature both an idealised Pagan world, the worlds of myth and legend, the Faerie realm of mystical beings, and of course Ravynne’s famous and extraordinarily powerful dragons. The Major Arcana cards offer a glimpse into the subconscious mind, and can be used to read for general qualities such as intuition, creativity, and imagination.
