Using the beautiful oracle deck, Seasons of the Witch Imbloc, Lorraine pulls a card every day for the week of February, sharing their meanings and offering spiritual guidance. She begins with a card pull for Monday:
'Monday’s card: peppermint really hit home for me. You all know that I’ve been working on my new tarot membership but while writing the meaning for peppermint, I realized how much guilt I’d felt for ending one membership to start something new. But, I’m glad to have received this card because as you’ll read below, you’re allowed to change directions. You’re allowed to decide that a season in your life has ended and you need something new. So yes, I’m a little terrified but also excited and looking forward to what comes next.
Peppermint is probably the most challenging card of the week but we also have Blackberries on Wednesday which brings with it a fair bit of challenge too. Other than that though, this is a pretty bright and encouraging week which promises to bring about some clarity for you.'
Imbolc, a time steeped in themes of patience, hope, and transformation, marks the season where we begin to ascend back toward the light after the darkness of winter. It’s the perfect time to reflect on the self, especially when the harshness of a spiritually challenging period has left us feeling vulnerable or uncertain about our next steps. This sabbat invites a period of solitary spiritual work—an opportunity to turn inward and focus on your personal dreams and aspirations.
This beautifully designed book and card deck set captures the essence of Imbolc’s energy perfectly. Featuring 44 cards, each one serves as a seed of spiritual guidance, inspired by ancient Imbolc traditions, to help you find answers to your most pressing questions. Whether you’re new to oracle cards or an experienced reader, these messages provide an accessible way to begin or deepen your intuitive practice.
The cards resonate with your energy, guiding you to unlock your inner wisdom while connecting with powerful spiritual forces. Each card also includes thought-provoking meanings paired with word spells, allowing you to invoke its energy and send your intentions of spiritual well-being out into the universe.
