I’ve been wrestling with where I am at as well. I am 56 yo - empty nester and not really feeling a crone. It has nothing at all to do with fear of aging or not wanting to embrace that part. However I feel I am still learning so much - still garnering more wisdom. I’m no where near what I consider a wise woman/crone. Lovely decks/pairings and video as always - blessed Mabon 🍁🍂❤
I heard someone the other day mention a 4th option for the Goddess. And it makes total sense in my mind. The God is divided as the Divine Child, Father/Warrior, Sage. But the Goddess has always been expressed as the Maiden, Mother, Crone. However, not every woman ends up a Mother or feels comfortable with that. And why don’t we get nuance of not having children too? Then I heard the breakdown as Maiden, Mother/Guardian, Crone. It’s still something I’m researching and teasing out in my mind. But initially it seems to make some sense. As for the Wise Woman energy. I totally understand that feeling of not knowing enough. After all the only time we stop learning in this life is when we die. But, I can teach those that come after me with some of the lessons I’ve learned. To me that’s the way it makes sense to lean into that energy. Blessed be! ♥️
Beautiful pairings! Love the cloth so Victorian goth😍 my favorite aesthetic. I have been pairing pagan other worlds was compendium of witches. It’s a beautiful combo.!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this list of autumn deck pairings--and I need to get a copy of the Cemetery Oracle ASAP. I am also surprised and a little impressed that your list doesn't include any "traditional" Halloween decks: Halloween Tarot, Halloween Oracle, Seasons of the Witch: Mabon or Samhain Oracles. I have to bust those traditional decks out this time of year, I love to see a list where these decks aren't front and center, for a more low key (but still on the head) association or vibe. (Totally nothing wrong with those traditional or season-specific decks, but it's refreshing/interesting to see another option.)
Getting to this late but I needed to let you know that watching this helped me so much! I’ve had the Hush Tarot for a few years and while I loved the art, it never told me a coherent story that has meaning to me. I kept it purely for the art. Then I saw how you paired it with the Earthbound Oracle and my brain fizzed. I spent the rest of last night swimming in stories and loving the experience. Thank you for that. ❤
I Love MLWessels' cards and also her Instagram postings. She shows some great combinations. Thanks for your paired autumnal mix. We're heading into spring here but this was still excellent to watch. Thank you!
Love your pairings Theia, especially with the black tarot and the Brian Frounds one. I don’t have Murder of Crows anymore and now I regret it. The Waterhouse one is online since today, the keywords are adjustable. I didn’t want to use keywords that were in my other decks, which made it more difficult for myself. So I choose 3 keywords for each of the major arcana (because I wanted a good balance of keywords) and tried to match these with the paintings, but I am not sure yet, I have to sleep on these for some time to come. They don’t feel as perfect as the Mary and Cemetery oracles.
It rattled me to the bone when I first put them together. But of course they would be best friends, it makes complete sense. I know you love Murder of Crows, do you use it year round or just select times of the year? Am curious! xx
Misty, ethereal garden beauty! So evocative. Loved the deck pairings too. Maria Wessels decks - do you have both Mary oracle's? If so, thoughts, preference?? Any info would be gratefully received. Thanks Theia 🍂🍁

Breathtaking. Thanks.
The pairing with Heart of the Faerie was amazing! Wish that one would come back in print.
Me too! I would probably even get a backup. Haha xx

Yess her pairings are iconic! Happy Spring! The light we leave is going to you. :) xx

Love a good pairing..so thank you.
I pair the literary Witches oracle with the Pagan otherworlds 👌
Murder with Crows and Cemetary Oracle... WOW. 💗
Thank you! Lovely video. Re the pairing with Pagan Otherworlds, I’ve enjoyed the boardered printing of The Serpent and the Peacock. Again, thank you ❤
Your dark tablecloth goes nicely with the season. Where can I buy one just like yours?
Thank you for providing a link to the Cemetery Oracle! I saw it somewhere before and couldn't find it 😔. Got it ordered now ☺️
Thanks for the post, lovely pairings for this time of year 💚
I'm holding off working with the black tarot until winter
That Cemetery Oracle looks PERFECT with Murder of Crows 👌🏼
It rattled me to the bone when I first put them together. But of course they would be best friends, it makes complete sense. I know you love Murder of Crows, do you use it year round or just select times of the year? Am curious! xx
Merry Mabon! Thank you for these lovely pairings. I'm inspired!
Yess to you as well! Thanks so much Susan! xx
The Cemetery oracle 😍 great photos
I know right?! The best!
Beautiful decks for Autumn. 😍
Hard to choose because there are so many good ones out there! xx
Love love your videos, always. Will be having a look back at the Kyph making videos soon :)
You are not the last person on earth has the antique anatomy. I don’t have it. 😂
Misty, ethereal garden beauty! So evocative. Loved the deck pairings too. Maria Wessels decks - do you have both Mary oracle's? If so, thoughts, preference?? Any info would be gratefully received. Thanks Theia 🍂🍁
The second Mary is just online for a few hours 😊 I will try to make a video will all the cards when I got my own copy.
@@marialouisawessels3835 oh hi! And thank you Maria ✨🙏
I’m considering the Green Witch’s Oracle to pair with my Pagan Otherworlds but haven’t decided for sure just yet. 😊
I loveeee the pairing of the Heart of the Faerie (?) & Into the Lonely Woods 😍😍
Yeah! I put them together totally by chance and I was so surprised how they fell into reading together so well! xx
Aw what a lovely vid, instant subscribe. I want to have a channel like this so bad. Youre such an artist!
Aw that's so kind! Thanks for being here! xx
🌹
These are fantastic! Can you list a list of these cards in the description?
