A fab idea for displaying the daily card.

Whenever i've drawn my card for the day it usually spent the day propped against something on my spiritual table.  This has been fine but sometimes the card has fallen over and also the position doesn't lend itself from being seen easily.  My spiritual table is in the conservatory and faces away from the door to the rest of the house and no matter what the card rested against it just wasn't facing at the right angle to be seen as I passed by.  Then yesterday an idea pop up out of the blue, to purchase a lovely frame to sit my card within.

What's great is now it can be easily seen during the day when i'm not in the conservatory and going about my day (usually involving domestic goddess duties).  Also the frame highlights it so my eyes are drawn immediately to it from afar.  I'm really loving how special it makes the daily card feel and look.

The aperture is big enough for any of my cards to sit within and the white sheet that it came with was replaced by a blue piece from my craft stash.

You might also find this a useful addition to your spiritual or inspirational space.

Same card, different personality.

I've been having quite a lot of fun all of March comparing the same card from various decks and writing my thoughts and keywords in my working file, noticing personalities and vibes from each.  It's also been fun getting out some decks i've not visited with in a while and being reminded of their personalities and beautiful artwork.
I've done the comparisons in the past when there's been a card that just hasn't been speaking with me and i've gotten stuck.  Taking the same card from a few decks has helped me see the messages and clues within the card i'm struggling with and so getting thoughts to flow and barriers floating away.

This has been especially useful when buying a new deck and meeting the new cards for the first time.  Even after reading the accompanying book, the meanings can sometimes not sit comfortably until you've sat with the new card and corresponding cards from your collection and begin to see and feel the message.  Equally the new card can show you another perspective for looking at and reading your existing cards.

An example of differences can be seen here in this photo showing the Page of Pentacles taken from the Faerie, Chrysallis, Llewellyn Classic, Druidcraft and Anna-K Tarot decks.   They are all so different yet there is a common thread within them all,  though some are easier to see than others.

This past week I decided to select one deck as the constant or guide deck, and to compare some of the cards i'm needing clarity with from other decks against it.  The deck chosen was the Psychic Tarot Oracle by John Holland.  I love this deck for it's clarity and it really gets my intuition flowing.  I will be continuing with this into next week and write down observations in my working file.  Have you also spent time with your decks in this way?  What have you learned and experienced?  I'd love to chat about it so send me a message using my contact form at the top of my blog or leave a comment.
