card deck



Picture


In these one-to-one sessions, I do an (up to 10 cards) oracle deck. The handmade images are based in the images that are triggered in my imagination by the person's presence, as well as based in life events that person shares with me.

When the cards are finished, we together define each card's key-meanings. The last part of the session is dedicated to testing a simple 3 card spread. Assuming the querent's role, the person asks a question about a personal challenge or meaningful doubt. The question can be verbalized or asked in silence. The querent randomly chooses 3 cards and displays them in a line facing down. I then turn them face up and propose a way of reading this specific 3 card sequence, but do so with the main focus of triggering the person's own intuition/embodied wisdom around the topic. From now on, the person is the owner of the deck and it is entirely up to her/him to develop a way of reading the spreads.

This work is grounded in my belief that life's inherent intelligence is made palpable by synchronicities that happen all around, inside and in front of us. It is also grounded in the belief that we access that intelligence chiefly through tapping into our own heart's "small still voice".
This work is dedicated to inspire and open new view-points, it intends to read not the future but the present's immense potential.
