Oracle Cards 101—Because Sometimes You Need a Softer Deck

Tarot can feel like handing your life to a cosmic drill sergeant (“Fix this or else!”). Oracle cards? They’re the cool guidance counselor who hands you a latte and says, “Breathe, you’ve got this.”

I confess: I collect more decks than I actually use (who’s counting, anyway? certainly not me…). But as I sharpen my tarot chops, I’m itching to weave oracle cards into the mix. Got tips, favorite decks, or reading requests? Hit the comments and let’s trade card wisdom!
