Today’s pull from Georgie’s Magic Card Collection is the Happy Soul Yes/No Crystal Oracle Deck by Diane Kewley and Joey Wargachuk. I’m not sure when it was published, but I got my copy this past summer.
5 Points About This Deck
- Purpose: The Happy Soul Yes/No Crystal Oracle Deck is meant to offer a straight up affirmative or negative answer to a querent’s question … which is often what people are looking for when they’re wanting a divinatory reading, and Tarot isn’t always so good at that.
- Oracle Deck: The Happy Soul Yes/No Crystal Oracle is an Oracle deck, not Tarot. There are no Major or Minor Arcanas, simply 28 cards – 7 Yes, 7 No, 7 Maybe, and 7 Defer
- Crystals: Each card shows a different crystal along with a short phrase connected to the energy of the pictured stone, and the answer, ie. yes, no, maybe, defer
- Works Well With Others: This a great deck to use in tandem with other Oracle or Tarot decks … the Yes/No Crystal Oracle can suggest a yes/no/maybe/defer answer, while the other decks can fill in the details of that suggestion
- Happy Soul: Happy Soul is a crystal and metaphysical shop in Toronto with two locations, one on Bloor Street West, and the other on Queen West (I’ve only been to the Queen Street store). The founder of the shop, Diane Kewley is one of the deck creators, and as far as I know, Happy Soul is the only place to get a copy (in person, or online).
If you’re looking for a straight and easy answer from your cards, this is a fun deck to try. And if you’re already familiar with the properties of crystals, you might especially like it.
Remember though, nothing is definitive with Tarot, or any Oracle deck, so always use good judgement and your own discernment when making decisions that matter.
