Curating the “Light Seed” Oracle

[@MaggieHerbst]

I've been wanting to combine these two decks for a while now but I wasn't sure how to do it. Thank you for sharing your process!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I am so glad you found it helpful! I think they would make one excellent oracle with all the cards combined as well. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@BoyDiviner]

I love how you always brainstorm and find a way to work with the decks you have

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Sometimes people get upset when I do different things with my decks, but it's always done from a place of love and good intentions. Hope you and yours are safe and well! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@valeriegayentrancer]

Hi there. What a surprise! There's a strange feeling that so many people all over the world and also at a most unusual "days out of time" sequence, were drawn to do the same thing. Now you have actualised it, we all can see the result of your efforts. Thank you for all the efforts you put in on both Boho Tarot and Boho Bloom. There's so much to inspire us all. May you be blessed.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Thank you so much, I am so glad you enjoyed it. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@yourwildlifecoaching429]

Wow, thanks so much! I hadn't used either deck much, I think precisely because they seemed so hefty and repetitive. I never would have managed to pare it down if I hadn't been able to follow along with you. Really looking forward to working with this and the Moonchild and Yogic Path. Thanks so much! I love your channel.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I'm so glad you found it helpful. Let me know how it works out for you!! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@theallisoncompendium]

Ahh I just keep goi mg back and forth on the Danielle noelle decks. I loooove her artwork, but the whole starseed concept is further down the woo path than I’ve gone so far 🤣🤣 I really enjoy all of your videos where you combine or reorganize decks. It always inspires me to think outside of the box.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I like the Starseed idea, but I'm with you, sometimes it's a little much for me. With the oracles, I find if you focus more on the imagery than the text on the cards, you can uncover a bit of grounded energy beneath them. I actually have a video coming up on how I work with her decks so that might provide some more food for thought as well. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@KristySlicker]

Same here, I pulled out the really woo woo cards and then combined what I had left of the two decks for me to use together.

[@kirstencorby8465]

It is pretty woo. But I bought the Starseed deck on a whim, and found it more empowering and affirming than I'd expected. More powerful.

[@ultravioletpisces3666]

@@KristySlicker you can take the woo woo cards in a more metaphoric way as well...

[@ultravioletpisces3666]

I'm not gonna do anything like this, but I enjoyed watching your process and hearing your thoughts on the cards! I really enjoy seeing people go through decks and talk about their thoughts on the cards, especially if I already have it and I'm looking for some more insight, rather than just checking to see if I want a deck. I like to see how other people use there cards and see what really resonated with me and what is like a definite "nope that's not for me," and even though I am not eliminating cards, it was fun in my head to think of which of a grouping I wouid keep or get rid of. (A few times I noticed it was defintly the opposite of your choice! Lol).. it's just kind of cool to see someone else's take, outside of my own thoughts which seem to obvious to me but then someone else sees something complety different

[@ultravioletpisces3666]

Also it's cool you didnt have to modify them or anything so you can switch out as you said you may want to do, or return them to normal if you wanted... you could curate this multiple times if you wanted and just use them in whatever combination you want, very flexible.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I do love that about the curated decks I make. I can rearrange them any time I need or even put them back their original structure if I want. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@carriesmysticalmusings]

What a fantastic idea. I followed along and started separating my 2 decks. Thanks for the inspiration

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

How wonderful, you'll have to let me know how it works out for you. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@angelicaclarke7880]

Another name could be the Starlight oracle!!! A friend has the deck which is good enough for me - there was something too fluffy about the oracle for me even though it has the 'darker' cards. But I still enjoyed this vid and how you blended them!!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

That's a good name too! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@kiikat]

This is fantastic 🤩! I had the same thoughts, that cards in either deck seemed quite similar. I totally vibe with your idea of analyzing them and sorting them into a single deck that is less repetitive and more to your taste. I found myself agreeing with a lot of your opinions! Thanks for sharing

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I am so glad you enjoyed it. It works so much better for me as a combined oracle. Feels a lot less repetitive and every message feels like it carries more weight. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@MeadowlarkMystic]

What fun!!! You are such a wonderful card geek. I love this.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Hehe thank you!! It was so much fun to do. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@carmmen1384]

Thanks for sharing. Interesting concept.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I'm enjoying working with it combined and paired down, although I still have all the cards so I can put them back together when I need to. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@crab3696]

For spring I am using both of Denise Linn's cards - Sacred Traveler and Gateway Oracle. Also using Guardian Angel, Hedgewick botanical, roots & wings. Glad you mentioned Nature Whispers as I think that deck is underrated.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Ooh do you like the Gateway? I always look at it whenever hay house has a sale, just never made the commitment. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@crab3696]

@@DawnMichelleTarot Yes I like it. Her cards are very clear and illustrations are very nice.

[@NinetteNickerson]

I did the same! 😆 Except...took out the cards I wasn’t crazy about and made one deck.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

That's a great idea too! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@MixtressRae]

I did the exact same thing! Got rid of cards I didn't like and picked my favorite of repetitive energies and then gave the deck of extras to a friend. I love using these decks together as a personalized whole.

[@starschloneger958]

Great video. Now I want to see the Yogic Path!!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

We'll get a peek in an upcoming video. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@valeriegayentrancer]

Watched your sorting and agree that you have made a good selection for a stand-alone deck. Loved the "Sisterhood of the Rose" that came up at the end, especially as there were so many people with similar thoughts about the two decks! I think the booklets are great on their own for understanding different concepts but the actual words on the linked cards don't seem to follow through with the ideas in the books. There were times that I glimpsed what the authors were intending with a particular card but I felt there was no clear definition of different dimensions (Is this 3rd, 4th, 5th or even a higher dimension?) So their messages became confused and were apparently duplicated. My plan is to work with each deck separately. I think I might cover the text with sticky labels and see what comes up intuitively. The Starchild Tarot has been on my Wish List for a long time and I am hoping that it will be out on mass publishing as that is the only way that I will be able to get a copy. I was also grateful that you mentioned the Yogic Path cards which are available locally. Many thanks for taking the time to video your sorting. It helped us understand your needs and your thinking.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I am so glad you enjoyed it. It was a really fun process to do and I really like it combined together. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@AnnieDusk]

Just yesterday I was looking at these decks in my shelf and wondering: how would they work as one big oracle? I agree, they are repetitive (I started noticing it when I drew both Soul Family and Council of Light in the same reading), but if I ignore the bottoms and work by the image and titles, I can find enough to juice them up differently. Watching your process and hearing your thoughts is so wonderful, I know I'll be rewatching this one haha 💖

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I think you could use them as one big deck too. I played with that idea as well, but I had fun pulling out just the ones that worked for me. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@laurahaviland775]

I love your book !!!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Thank you so much, I am so glad you enjoy it! I appreciate the support! Hope you are safe and well. ❤️

[@memee7854]

How did u come up with this brilliant idea?!!! I really love it! I ordered both decks from Amazon more than month ago and ofcourse the order is late due to current quarantine😔 cant wait to have them and watch the video again 🥰🤩

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I've done similar with other decks. 🙂 I hope you enjoy them when they arrive! Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@grumpyschnauzer]

Gosh, I get frustrated when I buy a deck and a lot of the cards have the same message. I have this issue with Goddess Love and Goddess Dream oracles but I really love the art so you’ve inspired a re-working of decks that don’t resonate or repetitive.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Me too! It’s fun to curate it into your own personalized oracle deck. 🥰

[@kirstencorby8465]

I'm thinking of doing this with Kyle Grey's Angels & Ancestors and Keepers of the Light decks. Same author, same artist, some overlap in the energies.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

That would be a fun one! I'd love to know how that comes out if you do. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@TheShadowMoonWitch]

You're making me want to do this too. I love these decks but there are some cards I just don't know how to feel about. I also feel like some of the concepts in it are too far for me to reach with my beliefs.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

There you go, just take out the ones that don't resonate for you! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@TheShadowMoonWitch]

@@DawnMichelleTarot I am wondering what you plan to do with your cards you left out? Use them in journals or other art projects? If I did this I would be tempted to make my own guide book using the ones that came with each deck for the cards I picked out.

[@tamipie]

I think I would have chopped the bottoms and use the double deck intuitively. But I don't have these. I recently got the Starseed Tarot in a trade, and I am surprised by how much I like it! I always loved Moonchild and thought Starseed would be too "girly"? But it's just different. So now I have a bit more appreciation for the artwork itself. Still, more oracles??🤦‍♀️

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I still may get chop those titles, I'm giving it another read or two just to be sure. I don't know why I keep getting oracles, I don't use them near as much as tarot hehe! Hope you are safe and well. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@TaleRavenTarot]

Can you tell by all my comments that I'm marathoning your videos? 😂 I love this idea so much, and I might do the same thing.I really love the Starseed Oracle, and I like some cards in the Work Your Light. Great idea to combine them. How will you store the combined deck?

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I'm so glad you are enjoying the videos! I store the ones I am currently working with in the Work your Light box on my shelves and then the cards I'm not currently using in the Starseed box in my closet. That way I still have all the cards if I want rework them. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@sophiamarion1812]

Hey! The Starseed oracle really calls to me and the Work your Light not so much but it seems everyone prefers the Work your Light More? If you could only choose one, which would you choose? And what deck would you recommend for different types of people if that makes sense? Thanks!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I actually prefer the Starseed too myself because I feel like the art is bit more polished. But honestly, I like them mixed together. I'm not sure what you mean by decks for different people? 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@sophiamarion1812]

Boho Tarot Thank you! I’ve decided to get that one because the art is just = yes. What I meant is I saw a lot of people saying they were more Earth souls so the starseed didn’t resonate and vice versa 😊

[@BookishWitch777]

I removed a few cards from work your light that I just couldn't with. I do want starseed, but I fully intend to combine them after I remove cards. I find that lightworker decks are just apparently not my thing. I am going to have to start researching card creators more before I buy things. Sometimes I get a deck and the guidebook is basically useless. I read work your light intutivly with just the artwork and I love it that way. I was contemplating chopping the titles off but the back is so pretty. I just ignore them. I recently bought the Isis oracle hoping for some cool Egyptian cards and it's all lightworker. Sigh. Maybe I'll just make my own meanings. I don't know what it is about lightworkers specifically but it's sooo unbelievably woo-y and off-putting to me. I really can't quite put my finger on the issue.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I feel that with some of them too! I love to come up with my own meanings for cards/decks. I say go for it! It's lots of fun. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@BookishWitch777]

@@DawnMichelleTarot I was interested to see someone doing a similar thing to what I've planned to do. I may yet go through and give some cards my own meanings from the ones I've pulled but it's still a work in progress. I want a good basis I'm happy with before I start trying to rework meanings.

Thinking about doing the same with my decks ✨ what did u do with the rest of the cards?

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

They are just hanging out in the other box in my closet right now. I thought it might be interesting to go through them all again at some point and see if I pull out different cards the next time. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@stgeorgesprincipal]

what do you do with the 2nd deck that remains then?

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

They are just in the other box on my shelf. I will keep them because I might want to switch the cards around at some point or use either deck in it's original form. I don't intend to get rid of the extra cards or anything. It gives me lots of flexibility. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@MMSGEE]

I love this artist and have all her decks. But with these oracles the art is really what carries them the words\guide book seem like the author was running out of ideas,.... yet the box has the artist name so tiny on it !!!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I would agree, I'm not overly fond of the authors interpretations of the cards but I adore the artwork and just read it more intuitively, so it works beautifully for me in that way.🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@katriannanonduality]

Do you have the star child tarot as well by chance?
