“If you're drawn to pull a card, just do it.”

–Crecia Cipriano

I’m infatuated with oracle cards. They’re such a cool entry to start trusting your intuition more that I’ve woven them throughout the new FLOW Planner. I’m excited to talk with Crecia Cipriano, an intuition-driven decisionmaking coach who uses cards in her coaching practice.

Cards can give guidance, validation of something happening, new perspectives, and new connections. And there are all kinds of cards, so everyone can find a deck (or several) that fit their vibe.

You can do year or quarter ahead spreads. You can do daily pulls. There are so many different ways to use oracle cards to tap into your intuition (and use that for planning). Are oracle cards part of your toolbox?

We talk about: 

• What exactly a pull and a spread are
• Year or quarter ahead spreads, daily card pulls, and pulling a card when you felt drawn to or need guidance
• Reminders of claiming statements or affirmations from your pulls
• Coming into new relationship with the cards we pull for a year or season
• How to interpret cards
• Why to use or not use the guidebook information

DOABLE CHANGES

At the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action. Change comes from action. 

Doable changes are things that you can add into your life, one at a time to make micro shifts and really create a ripple effect that will create a big change over time. Choose one that really piques your interest and roll with it. 

Here are three Doable Changes from this conversation:

• CHOOSE AN ORACLE DECK. There are so many different kinds of oracle cards. They come with quotes or various kinds of artwork. They have different themes and styles. Find a deck that resonates with you. Can’t decide? Choose more than one … they will serve you at different times.
• PULL A CARD. Take a minute to get grounded and detach from what else is going on. Shuffle the deck. Pull a card. Look at it. Start with what you see without trying to attach meaning. What does it evoke in you? If you know something about symbolism you can add that in. If you choose you can read the guidebook that comes with the cards.
• TRY A SPREAD. You can do a past-present-future spread, a card a month for the next quarter, or a 5-card spread for the coming season with these questions: Where should I focus my energy in this season? What must I clear in order to grow? How can I live in alignment with the energies of this season? What should I explore? What’s waiting for me in the next season?
