The Water Energy
I have always been pulled to the water energy. Ever since I was a little girl, it’s been in my heart. I grew up blocks away from the shores of a big Wisconsin lake. Water has always been close by. As I started to explore oracle cards any that were water related I seemed to be drawn to. However something was always missing. All the oracle decks I found were focused around ocean energy or nautical themes. None of them gave the same energy I felt when you are at Lake Michigan looking out to that horizon that doesn’t end.
Story of the Oracle
As if it began like a fairytale, this all started as a dream. I had a dream I was proofing cards to a oracle deck. I went to turn over one of the cards and saw a sea lamprey. If you have ever seen one you know they are made of nightmares! It caught my attention enough to know that I was dreaming. A lucid dream now, as I started taking notes in my dream. I finished my nights sleep and in the morning I instantly remembered my dream. It seemed all to real. I grabbed my phone to see if I was dreaming or if there really was notes. I checked my phone and just like in my dream, there they were, 42 card design names and the last line in my note read...

They are a system. Just as the heart works with the lungs and brain, the lakes have a living energy that beats within us. A majestic, freshwater collective system.
