Charging your oracle cards fills them with positive spiritual energy so they function best. This is the spiritual equivalent to plugging your phone into a charger. Re-charge your cards once a month if you’re using moonlight or another technique (besides crystal-charging, as this method is constant. See more below). Here’s a few ways to charge your oracle cards:

This is in no way a complete list, there are just too many out there that I’m sure I have yet to discover. These are my personal favorites out of what I’ve seen so far and it’s a great list to get you started. One of my favorite parts to Feather’s Green Witch Living Class(if you haven’t taken Feathers course yet, I highly recommend it) was choosing our plant ally for the year. Your plant ally is one you learn about in depth throughout the year and form a relationship with. Plants have spirits too! I have a lifelong connection with exploring the many faceted properties of plants. Botanical, Mythological, Spiritual, Medicinal, Culinary, in fact our whole connection with the Plant World and through this rekindled the ancient tradition of Flower Reading, (Floramancy) Also a teacher of creative arts with a focus on environmental arts, I have enjoyed a 30 year commitment to also sharing my passion for Nature based traditions with a strong centre of environmentalism.

With a crystal or stone: by laying a crystal or stone on top of your cards and storing them in a special box or bag, the crystal’s energy will consistently charge them. A few examples of crystals that I use: clear quartz, amethyst, lapis lazuli and selenite (extra tip: selenite is self-cleansing AND cleanses other items in its vicinity – double purpose!)

The Tarot of Plants, Solar edition or Full Moon edition (https://www.etsy.com/listing/698126174/the-tarot-of-plants-full-moon-edition) It’s wise to ask your guides and the person’s guides to provide a message through the cards that is “for the highest good of all”. On every card is the number at the top for guidebook reference, the elemental symbol, a key word, and the name of the plant (both common name and genus/species name). If the plant has an astrological correspondence, there is also a glyph of the zodiac sign. There are also little sketches of metaphysical objects that are related to the card’s meaning, such as a dreamcatcher for Marigold’s key word ‘Positivity’ and a sword for Fennel’s key word ‘Strength.’ Now it’s time to learn how to read the oracle cards for yourself. The easiest method: ask an open-ended question, shuffle and draw ONE card. Take note of the FIRST thought or sensation that pops into your mind. Write it down. Then notice all of the elements of this card: the colors, theme, characters (if any), numbers, and messages written on the card. Is anything standing out to you? Sit with the card for a little while and meditate on its meaning. I also recommend keeping the card somewhere you can see it throughout the day. As for the guidebook, only reference it when you need extra clarification on a card. Shuffling & Spreads:
