In Season 3 of Present Moments, we use a variety of oracle card decks as prompts for self-discovery. Each episode takes an affirmation, intention and/or message from the card to assist with exploration and evaluation. Oracle cards have been used to reveal blind spots and/or to bring awareness to thoughts, experiences, relationships, and behaviors that may or may not serve us. Additionally, they can be a powerful tool to remind us of what is truly important and activating energetic motion in the direction that supports our divine purpose.

This episode is all about the 'why' behind using oracle cards, setting intentions and holding an affirmation in your heart. I use these cards as a process for slowing down and tapping into my feelings about the message and image. It gives me a small pause in the day to evaluate how I feel about a concept I may or may not have otherwise explored. Using oracle cards, affirmations and intentions offers a direction and a focus for my energy beyond my daily tasks and familiar routine. It's a brief moment to reflect and come into the present moment as the card is held in my hand. They are an excellent tool for anyone beginning a mindfulness practice that needs a bit of structure without it becoming too prescriptive.
