Birthdays and New Oracle Decks

Lil Cryptid Oracle Deck

Yesterday was my birthday - my 52nd - and like many people who definitely need our paychecks, I worked my full 6.5 hour Saturday shift at the vet clinic (I kiss puppies all day long and get paid for it), but afterward, since I only work till 2pm on Saturdays, I met my sister at a new (it's been there 5 months but this was our first chance at going) rock shop in Round Rock, Texas, called Unearthed. I planned to buy yet more crystals and maybe a new ring, and the cool thing is that my sister's birthday present to me was one of those Visa gift cards that can be used anywhere.

So I spent the whole amount (and a little over) to buy myself so much stuff there - their prices are AMAZING. Stones, a new ring, I adopted a coyote figure (they put broken or chipped figures or stones up for 'adoption' for $5 - and then you name them on the spot, and they make you a little adoption name sticker for it!), and while I wasn't going to buy myself yet another tarot deck (though they had a mushroom one that had tempted me), I did break down and buy the Lil Cryptid Oracle Deck (above). It is so precious, and it meshes well with my other decks that I read with regularly since I use multiple decks at a time to do my readings. Now what they advertise on the site above is the deck in a tin and there's even a "Lil Cryptid Field Guide," I only had the opportunity to get the deck in a box, no field guide booklet. However, the deck comes with three extra cards that have slightly more detailed information on each Lil Cryptid.

Did I mention that they're precious?

Now unfortunately on the creators' website above, they're out sold out of the deck, but I bet if you contact them, they'd let you know when they'll have them in stock again. Or maybe if you're lucky, you'll stumble on them in a quaint little crystal and new age shop like I did. I recommend them big time, though. Only 36 cards plus the guide cards. Looks like the website also offers another little deck they did together and two cloths to go with each deck for reading on. They're sold out of the little pouch, too, or else I might've bought that right now.

Also if you're in Round Rock, check this store out. They've got a lot of fun and gorgeous stones, and I know I'll be going back often. Especially since the owner offered that I could do readings there from time to time, so hey, I might finally have an outlet to jump in here and there to make a little extra on my Saturdays after my usual work shift.

This is a bit of a larger spread that I made for my birthday, but can be used for the new year as well! I typically like to do this on my birthday because it is a more personal way of counting years! Anyways, I really love the result I got, Honest, but what I needed to know! Looking forward to next year’s new adventures!

The Witch

This Servant shows us how to do sorcery and conjure. She encourages us to see the mystery and magic of life.

When The Witch appears in a reading it is a sign that there is a touch of magick in the air. The Witch tells you to become aware of the sense that something wyrd is at play that seems to have a life and volition of its own.

Something special is happening or about to happen to you- something that may seem strange and unusual at first but will leave you with a sense of wonder. People, events or things may appear suddenly in your life as if by magick, or you will find yourself perfectly in the right place at the right time. Events will magically fall into place and good luck will abound.

The Witch leaves you with a sense of wonder, just like a knowing smile or wink from the universe. Magick is at play, and it is a joy to behold, so make sure you watch out for it.

MANTRA: I feel the magick.

KEY WORDS: Magic, Alchemy, Allurement, Bewitchment, Conjuring, Devilry, Occultism, Incantation, Mystery, Mystification, Power, Enigma, Strange, Secret, Wyrd, Preternatural, Extraordinary, Miraculous.

THE WITCH PRAYER: Oh, great servant The Witch, who has the power to do anything she desires, help me escape my current dilemma so that I once again see the magick and wyrd of life. May my magick be as great as yours.

The Thinker

This Servant shows us how to solve problems using our analytical and rational mind. He encourages us to always go with what is logically correct rather than relying on what our hearts may be saying.

The problem you face will be best solved using reason and deduction. The Thinker is a sign that you need to put aside any emotional feelings or needs you have for the time being, and instead try to focus on the rational and intellectual thoughts instead.

There is a time to feel your way through life and there is a time to really think things through, and The Thinker instructs you that now is a time to think rather than intuit. What is the most rational way out of the problem? What will be best long-term even if it feels bad in the short-term? What is the clever move here? What is the most intelligent next step?

The Thinker wants you to think everything through rather than act on impulse or emotion. The right solution may not be the answer you want to hear but it is the most logical, and the one that should bring you the best long term results. The Thinker requires you to not be fooled by your emotions but instead to really think about what is the wisest path to take.

MANTRA: All is logical and coherent.

KEY WORDS: Astute, Intelligent, Rational, Bright, Brainy, Brilliant, Wise, Analytical, Deliberate, Impartial, Cohesion, Enlightened, Judicious, Logical, Level-headed, Lucid, Prudent, Sane, Sober, Objective.

THE THINKER PRAYER: Oh, great servant The Thinker, who sees the logic and reason behind all events, lend me your steady eye and astute mind so that I can make the wisest and best decision. May logic and understanding light my way.
