Heal Yourself Reading Cards ~ An Older Deck I would Recommend

Hello everyone, this is Sandra at Spirit of Avalon. Welcome to the summer house. So there will be traffic noise because there is a road right next to the fence that this summer house is next to. So unfortunately we will get that but I thought it might be nice to do a video out here and today I'm going to be showing an older deck of mine that I've had for a long time. And this deck is still available. I noticed on Amazon when I checked because I wanted to see if it was still available before talking about it and there was a couple of copies on UK Amazon in the same box as this but they have Rockpool have reissued it in a totally different box and probably the card stock in that new edition is matte I would imagine and possibly the cards might be a little bit smaller but it is still the same title Heal Yourself Reading Cards by Ina Seagal. So I just wanted to show these because I've been working with these and I think they're so good really for healing but it's also such a good deck in that it's not all rainbows and unicorns and love and light and all of that type of thing we've got cards that are not all positive which is good so on the back of this it says at last a card deck by Ina Seagal that is focused on healing transformation and the raising of consciousness this deck is visceral emotional and raw and I would agree with that in both text and visuals expressing both the lighter and the darker side of life which again definitely and it's brilliant the cards access the higher states of awareness as well as challenging emotions thought patterns and energies people have to transform in this 36 card oracle deck the text for each card gives the meaning of the card the reason the person has chosen the card and an empowering statement and a short process so as I said this is by Rockpool so I have like I said the older edition of this so the cards are glossy they are larger I just put that down there I want to make sure that you can see the cards when we look at them and we do have a book so you get like a large picture of the card and you get like this one is inner child and you get your inner child is urging you to lighten up a little get out of your comfort zone and have fun and then we get an action for each card which is really good so the action for inner child find a photo of you as a child between the ages of three and eight look at the picture what do you see in your eyes what is the expression on your face if this little child had a voice what would she or he say to you take some paper and using your non-dominant hand write dear your name I feel give the little you a chance to express itself then write a loving response from the adult you ask the child in you what she he needs to feel better then follow the child's recommendation so this card I absolutely love love love this card um so I don't know how many pages this is uh 84 yeah it's about the illustrators about 85 pages so it is really good and the reason I wanted to show this was you know you don't I have well I haven't seen a lot about this deck I mean my edition is from 2017 when it was published by Rockpool but like I say there is an updated version of this now in a in a different box and I'm imagining the cards might be slightly smaller but I would think they'd be matte so we just have introduction how to use the cards and then you go into the cards so let's put that over there so these are the cards now they're not going to be in order because obviously I've been using the deck and I've just been using it on its own sometimes I'll just do like a one card pull but sometimes I'll do two just just to see just to see what it comes out with um so they are glossy these ones and they are now they didn't come edged I edged them myself in this like old gold type colour so they don't come like that I don't know about like I say the new edition now because you know I thought about getting the new the newer edition and I thought no this is the deck that I'm sort of I've been using and are I suppose bonded with I mean there's marks on these cards because they've been used but this one is help from above and I love the artwork in this these are the backs quite nice backs too and home and I love the way the women are dressed and that in these but yes you've got the guidebook but you can also go on your own intuition with these and these are working you know for me I love it I love this card so much look at it soul mate wouldn't that be nice um because as it said there they're a healing deck as well as like uh raising your sort of consciousness um a bit um but they because I suppose I mean it's the first of July is always like difficult for me because it's the day my dad passed away eight years ago now so I tend to get out this deck um I mean I use it at other times anyway but I mean um to help me navigate that but also at the moment I've actually got a friend who's in the hospital so this is trying to help myself with that by using cards and also I use the cards alongside my own way of sending healing to this friend um so I've already sent two lots of healing I've been doing it most most nights so this card is discover your life purpose look at this up here you can see like a figure in that temptation so this could be you know telling you you know temptation and are you gonna take that temptation of this this man or are you you're going to resist that and you know is that a good idea um to do that you might think no it's not don't do that but then it depends on your circumstances maybe it would be a good thing to do that to give in to that temptation courage love this so you know there might be some of you there might be quite a lot of you that think yeah I've seen this deck before um but there might be some of you that haven't and I just thought I'd just make you aware of it because it works so well I mean look at this victim consciousness I mean shall we see what the book says for victim consciousness so this is number 12 so victim consciousness stop blaming others and take responsibility for what you are creating you see what I mean about it being quite tough and hard hitting some of these cards are but that's good it's easy to think that life is unfair and point a finger at others if you hear yourself saying life is unfair bad things always happen to me I'm not good enough nobody cares about me why me I can't do what I want to do etc then you are losing your power nourishing your victim aspect and ascertaining your place in the victim club your inner victim can stop you from moving forward by creating dramas making you judge others telling you that you don't deserve better and keeping you stuck in a financial rut you need to build your internal confidence self-worth and courage get out of your comfort zone and work on expanding and growing in all areas of your life the light side of the victim archetype is the victorious part which can help you to hold your power without getting angry and attacking others it can also assist you to create healthy boundaries and act from a place of honesty integrity compassion and love action is visualize your inner victim ask to be aware when you are acting like a victim then ask your inner victim to show you how you could behave in a more empowered way how do you need to think feel and act to be empowered on a daily basis ask yourself am I acting from an empowered victorious perspective or a victim perspective so that's just um to give you an idea and that's why i think that little guidebook is quite good because you get an action with these which you don't have to do it but it's useful to have it there if you want to so we have wild love i mean this could be love as in loving someone else or it could be as in loving yourself alchemy and i use different things in in healing as well which maybe you could call alchemy sometimes i use herbs or crystals cycles beauty and this might not just be outer external beauty it could be inner beauty as well but we've got the snake here so maybe it could also be you know not to be too vain perhaps you know vanity could take over letting go i love this letting go and she's with this lovely stone like a celtic type cross on it and you've got these people in the background here that look like possibly they look a bit like monks but they could be druids or anything couldn't they um so this this is another thing where sometimes we do have to let go even if we don't really want to procrastination this is me definitely i do procrastinate i've tried to get better at doing that especially if this card comes out i'm like right yeah it's telling me something here about that and i know that i do that say what you mean so unleash your creativity yes is there something creative that you could do you know being creative can help with healing as well can't it how teachable are you pay attention to signs yes definitely yes you should i do um with different things that happen i always think that could be there for a reason that sign might have um come now because i need to see that take off your mask or masks yes and be your your true self and don't hide behind that mask pride yes because pride can be a bad thing it can be a good thing but it can also be a bad thing it can be both can't it hole in the soul and yes yes definitely um you can feel that you feel like there's something missing there um yeah i mean i even kind of feel that even when i think about about my dad even so healing yes definitely and i use my hands a lot in healing i do it in my own way i'm not like rightly trained or any of that i do it in my own way sadness so you see these cards are not all um uplifting phoenix rising we have sexual arts in a child we had a look at this one in the book didn't we look at that in the woodlands as well this see this is perfect for me because when i was a child that's where i grew up in the woods in the countryside i'm still kind of not far from that now rejection yeah that can be really tough rejection it can be be very hurtful how do we heal from that have faith selling out this is quite a tough card isn't it self-sabotage yeah how many times do we do this self-sabotage yeah i've definitely done it family and tribe which are always important and can be helpful to you self-love i'm really bad at this really bad sexuality dreams this is lovely look at this patience and the last card is entrapment which yes that that is also difficult so those are the 36 cards in the deck um and i just wanted to show them to you because you know it's not one that i see talked about very often so i thought i'm just gonna show it even though mine is as i said an older older copy if you like this particular one um uk amazon did still have a couple of these on there if you just type in heal yourself reading cards and then you will see the more up-to-date deck will come up as well i think um if you look at the date you can see that it's that it's more up-to-date but the box looks totally different and everything and i would imagine as i said the cards would be matte if that's what you prefer um so yeah i just thought i would show you these um i've been using them a lot for healing for myself and healing for others i'm hoping healing for others anyway um for my friend that's in the hospital i'm really hoping you know that things turn out well there but yeah definitely a deck worth worth having i think um and it's really useful it's not just like pretty pictures or whatever it's a very useful deck so yeah so anyway i hope you enjoyed seeing this um i will be back um with another video at some point um i've just received a deck from which i'm planning to pair with a particular tarot deck that i think will go well with it and is why i ordered it so it's an oracle deck but i'm going to compare it with a tarot deck that i already have so i will show you those and see how that goes so i hope everyone's doing really well and i will talk to you all soon bye for now
