Believe

Usually, I comment about the particular deck I'm using at the end of the reading, but since this one is much different, I thought I'd do it at the beginning.

This card comes from an intuitive oracle deck I've made that I call Ocean Therapy. Here's a little of the explanation of this deck:

Believe.

It's such a simple word. And when we were young, it was really easy. Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy. All accepted without question. We wanted to believe in magic. 

Growing up, we got jaded. I don't know that the magic lost its luster. I think we slowly lost the ability to see it. 

But it's still there. And it believes in us.

Belief can be such a powerful thing. And it can mean so many different things for each of us. It's not just about Santa. And it's not just about religion (organized or not). It's really about everything.

To paraphrase Henry Ford, if you believe you can do a thing or believe that you can't do a thing, you're right.

Look at the picture on this card. Is the weather turning as a storm moves in? Or is the storm over, and moving away? And is a storm moving in to your life, or is it moving away?

Too often, we spend too much of our time looking for something or someone to believe in. We may not even realize that while we're searching, we're also coming up with reasons not to believe in that same something or someone.

All the while, we resist believing in ourselves.

What does "believe" mean to you? What came to mind when you first saw the picture of this card? And how does that apply to what you're dealing with right now?

If you're interested in getting one of these decks, you can order it RIGHT HERE! Each deck will be made especially for you when you order, which is why it's still showing up as a pre-order. And if 111 cards sounds too big to you, there are two smaller versions that are also available on that same page (along with samples of what some of the other cards in the deck look like).
