How do I choose the cards and receive the messages for the daily card reading blog page?

It has always been my intention to use this blog page to share my learnings on the Spiritual path, and to address and answer questions and commentary directed my way.  Recently I received a beautiful e-mail from someone who had been referred to the 'Daily Card Reading' page on my website by her sister-in-law.  She told me that she now visits the site regularly and that the cards drawn each day have had meaning for her...she wondered how I choose the cards and how the messages come to me...  I am in deep gratitude for her feedback and acknowledgment (thank you, Wendy!) and I honour her enquiry with this attempt to explain what is often hard to put into words! 

The photo above was taken of my basket of card decks...I have a black silk cloth that I drape over the basket to 'protect' it and I ensure that this basket is in a space where it will not be exposed to a lot of energy. I have acquired this collection of card decks over the past decade or more.  I purchase decks that I resonate with energetically, and that is how I choose which deck I will draw your reading from each day. I choose the deck to draw your daily reading from intuitively~it is simply the deck that I feel 'drawn' to at that moment. If you have been following my 'Daily Reading' blog, you know that Spirit presents the cards in interesting ways at times!  My role is to trust, allow and believe!
Once I have purchased a deck, consecrated it and aligned it with my energy, I do not allow others to touch my decks or cards.  I DO have a couple of decks that I have acquired with the INTENTION that they be used by and for others, and those decks are kept separate from these.
I teach an afternoon or evening course on how to work with oracle card decks, and I LOVE sharing with others how to use this beautiful divination tool!  Working with oracle cards is also a component of my weekend 'Conscious Connections' course.  You select your own Doreen Virtue angel oracle card deck which is included in course cost, and then I teach you how to work with them.  Anyone can use oracle card decks to assist them in making the connection!

So, that's how the cards themselves are chosen...'stay tuned' for how the messages come forward for each reading!
Blessings to you,
Linda
