Here’s a look at 10 Oracle decks I added to my collection in 2023. In also discuss random things like reading the cards for clients, where I’ve been, and what’s coming up with video content for my channel.
Here are five Oracle and Tarot decks that are currently on my 2024 wishlist. The video is timestamped and the description box includes where you can check out or purchase the featured decks.
I have been waiting for the creation of this deck for years and not because the creator and artist was slow to start or finish. It is because this deck started out as a Tarot app through Fool’s Dog, LLC. I had the apps for years and always wished for it to be an in-the-hand deck to use and now, it is here! Check out this video, which is timestamped, for my first impressions of the deck.

We are exploring the devastating case of Ellen Greenberg, a 27-year-old first-grade teacher and Philadelphia resident, where she shared an apartment with her fiance. On January 26, 2011, a blizzard hit the city, prompting Ellen to leave work and return to her apartment to hunker down. At approximately 6:40 PM, Ellen was pronounced dead as a result of twenty stab wounds, including ten to her back and neck. There was a gaping wound to her head. The stab wounds reached her brain and spinal cord, which would have surely caused severe pain. There were also 11 bruises on her right arm, abdomen, and right leg. The crime scene was initially handled as a suicide by law enforcement. Following the autopsy, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office initially ruled her death a homicide. Not even a day later, the Medical Examiner backtracked and reversed their position on her death. They officially ruled her death a suicide in February 2011. Her fiance was the one who called the police to report something had happened to Ellen.
In 2019, Her parents filed a civil legal suit against the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office and the Pathologist who performed the autopsy, seeking to change the manner of death to “homicide” or undetermined.” In September 2023, a lower appellate court ruled the manner of death stands, although they found the investigation “deeply flawed.” Her parents plan to appeal the decision to the State’s Supreme Court.
Ellen’s parents have been fighting for over a decade to ensure their daughter receives justice with a proper investigation. What we will be looking at in this reading is, what were the energies surrounding her manner of death – did she take her own life or did someone else have a hand in her demise? If someone else caused her death, who and why? Why was Law Enforcement so set on this being an unaliving situation versus homicide? Is there a cover-up? What’s next in the pursuit of a proper investigation of her death?

Mercedes was headed out for a fun night with friends at Dave & Busters on the night of April 16th, around 9:15 PM. She was last seen entering her apartment’s parking garage on surveillance video. From there, all hell broke loose. According to her loved ones, she was struck on the head, forced into a vehicle, shot in the arm, and abducted from her residence’s parking garage. She was set afire while still alive. The next day, April 17th, she was found on fire when she was discovered in the backseat of a burning vehicle on the side of Interstate 10, near the Salome Road exit. Her own vehicle, a white Dodge Charger, was found illegally parked in the Culinary Dropout restaurant parking lot, in Tempe, Arizona.
The time of death was determined to be 1:17 AM on April 17th. Her cause of death was smoke inhalation from the car fire. The horrifying discovery during her autopsy was she was forced to drink bleach prior to her death. Mercedes was full of life, worked as a part-time exotic dancer, and aspired to be a fitness trainer. She was loved and cherished by her family and friends. And, she deserves justice. Who did this to her and why?

Let’s chill and flip through the cards to see how some of my decks pair with The Beloved Dead Oracle. In this video, I share four decks that share a similar aesthetic or theme with the Beloved Dead Oracle.
Grab your favorite beverage, settle in, and let’s flip through some cards.
LET’S INSPIRE EACH OTHER TO HEAL WITH OUR READINGS AND SPIRITUAL GIFTS!
Check out the replay of this fabulous livestream! Donna from Artists and Oracles and I have come together to talk shop, to answer questions, and to inspire those who are being called to read the cards for others.
We are starting a series called “Artistry of Cartomancy” and we are creating a Cartomancy Colleague Community for those who are or have a desire to read the cards for others. We NEED readers to know just how much their gifts and skills are needed in this world right now. We have a ton of topics to discuss during our Live series and look forward to hearing from you!
There comes a time when things need to shift and change in order to move forward with ease and for me, that time has come. I am embracing the Death card period and leaning into saying goodbye to Choosing Your Next Deck, Curating Your Collection, at least in its current form. No worries – you can now access much of the content on my YouTube channel playlist and for a small fee, you can receive the worksheets and PDF Tarot spreads in my Ko-fi Shop.
There are additional videos that are available to those who pay for the spreads and worksheets that are not fully accessible on the YouTube channel playlist.
I will still host periodic live streams discussing the various topics that were covered in the course – so stay tuned! We will still keep the discussion of curating our collections and practicing mindfulness in procuring new decks.
There will still be ways to LEARN and GROW in TAROT with me, by joining me over on Ko-fi, where my Poised to Leap Coaching/Mentorship resides, as well as upcoming courses and workshops for you to participate (whether or not you are a Poised to Leap member).
WHY THE CHANGE?
The time has come for me to close down the Abundant Life Tarot Academy on my website and move much of the learning/teaching environment over to Ko-fi. With this change, I will be closing the free Choosing Your Next Deck, Curating Your Collection course. This course was born out of my 2020 Depth year experience and I still plan to make sure the content remains available for those who wish to watch it.
Thanks to all those who took and completed the free course, participated in the lives and Zoom calls, and were so supportive of the message I was conveying to the tarot-collecting community.
