Treat Yourself Like a Goddess: The Sacred Self-Care Oracle
The Sacred Self-Care Oracle by Jill Pyle is a deck all about looking after you. It's made to help you connect with your intuition, which is that quiet inner sense of what feels right for you. It also helps you build a self-care practice that actually feels good, not like one more thing on the list.
The deck is whimsically illustrated, the artwork is playful and a bit dreamy. And it's designed to help you create little rituals. A little something you do on purpose to take care of yourself. The kind of thing that feeds you on a deep level, the stuff your soul has been asking for.
The cards get you asking yourself some really good questions. What do I need to feel centred and balanced today? How can I connect with my body's intuition? If I only have a short time for me this week, how should I spend it?
You can use the cards on their own and see what each one says to you. Or you can use the guidebook, which goes deeper. It has mantras, I love a good mantra to focus on instead of the million thoughts in my head, plus journal prompts and extra guidance. The whole idea is that it gives you permission to put self-care at the top of your to-do list. I really like that.
My thoughts on this one: I love the artwork on this deck. The colours are so bright and happy, and they lift your spirits just by looking at them.
This is the deck I reach for when I'm floundering. Maybe I'm procrastinating and can't get started on something I'm supposed to be doing. Maybe something has interrupted my flow and I've lost my way. Or maybe something stressful has happened and it's taken me completely off track.
When that happens, I grab this deck, shuffle, and do whatever comes out for me. That's it. I don't overthink it. The card gives me something to do, and that's usually enough to get me moving again.
If you ever feel like you've lost your way a little, this might be a nice one to have close by. And if you're curious what pulling a card feels like, you're welcome to try my free one-card reading by email.
