Secret Woods - A Deeper Look Reading

On Monday, I posted a review of this deck, Secret Woods. Because I'm so delighted with the deck, I wanted to go a step further and offer a quick view of them in action. Below, is one of many amazing insights I've gained from the cards so far. 

The deck is made up of unique guides offering advice and guidance from a hidden place just beyond the veil. Whether you use the one card pull or one of the two spreads offered in the book, you're sure to discover an inspiring solution to any situation.

~~~~~~

Recently, I've found myself in the midst of an overwhelming situation. I feel like I have no control over my life, everything seems upside down, and sometimes it's as if I'm going to drown. I'm at the point where I have no idea what to do, or where to turn for help. I won't go into too much detail because the nature of the situation has to do with other people in my life. But the cards revealed a very interesting solution to the matter.

Naturalist - A secret to protect your power.

The Naturalist collects creatures by offering them golden pellets, which then turns the creature into a pellet, which the Naturalist buries to release the creature into the invisible realm away from the harms of our world. 

A deeper look suggests that some things should remain secret. It warns you not to reveal everything to those who could judge and destroy your beliefs. You should bury the belief and watch it take on more power. 

My Take Away: I'm in more control of the situation than I realize, but my silence is more important than my voice. Actions speak louder than any words. I should remain neutral in my opinions, watch in silence, and only act when necessary. 

Recent Results: After revealing this message, I took the advice and stepped back from the situation. Being quiet and watching is hard when you're faced with those you care about making self-destructive decisions. But I bit my tongue, watched, and waited. Within a couple of days, things began to shift and seem to be correcting themselves. I have a different perspective now on the whole situation. For the most part, it seems like everything is running a course and settling back into place.

Review: Secret Woods

Secret Woods

Author: Kelly Patton

Red Feather/Schiffer Publishing, 2021

Description: 28 card deck, 72-page companion guide, a die-cut sleeve that offers a peek at the box, which has a magnetic closure lid.

Card Size: about 4x5

"Welcome to the Secret Woods, an immersive realm that surrounds you but is hidden from your normal daily perception - one that is only a peek beyond a thin veil that separates your world from the home of countless peculiar spirits."

The Secret Woods deck is destined to be one of my favorite decks. The artwork pulled me in instantly. I've already had some amazing one card readings. 

The cards feature animals, nature scenes, and some unusual creatures. The images are rich and creative. The intriguing borders and gilded edges are a nice touch to this deck. Printed on thick, mat card stock, the cards shuffle well and fit perfectly even in the smallest of hands.

The Guidebook offers suggestions of how to use the cards, along with a couple of spreads, but the bulk of the book focuses on the cards, which are in alphabetical order. Each card entry contains a picture, its title and phrase, a description, and a deeper look to reveal its message.

I highly recommend the Secret Woods deck to animal and nature lovers. The cards have amazing images and inspiring messages. 

Stop by Friday for A Deeper Look Reading featuring the Secret Woods deck.
