goddess inspiration oracle: reviews and a signing!

It’s September, which means that (drumroll, please!) the Goddess Inspiration Oracle is officially out and about in the world. For those of you in the NYC area, I’ll be having a signing for the GIO at East West Living. Here’s the official information:

Wednesday, October 24, 7 pm:

East West Living

If you can’t make it, the GIO can be purchased online from Amazon.com here. (Link opens in new window.)

As well, reviews for the GIO are starting to appear. Here are quotes from a few of them:

Corrine Kenner:
“I don’t know about you, but every now and then I’ll do a reading that flows beautifully from one card to the next, gracefully unveiling a story that makes perfect sense … until I reach the final card. That’s when I slam head-first into a brick wall with an outcome card that brings the whole reading to a screeching halt.

In those cases, I realize that I really didn’t want an ordinary outcome card: What I really wanted was guidance and advice. So I throw clarification cards — sometimes, one after another, which only complicates the issue.

That’s what makes the Goddess Inspiration Oracle such a welcome addition to my collection. It’s a quick and easy way to clarify any card in a tarot reading, and answer one of our most pressing questions: What should I do?

I love the fact that the Goddess Oracle cards complement the Goddess Tarot deck so well.“ read the rest of this review . . .

Aeclectic Tarot:
“The “Goddess Inspiration Oracle” kit consists of an 80-card deck of oracle cards based on a Goddess theme, a 120 page companion book (the “Goddess Inspiration Oracle Guide”), and a lovely gold colored organdy bag to act as a home for the cards. As always with Waldherr’s work, I am in awe! . . .

I found it interesting that Waldherr defines oracles as being both the vehicle for the message, and the message itself. Waldherr sees her messages as offering creative solutions, Whereas one of her previous works, “The Goddess Tarot”, offered wisdom through the venue of Tarot, Waldherr see the “Goddess Oracle” as opening this knowledge to those who do not necessarily work with Tarot . . . Incredible artistic talent, combined with a bent for serious research, is a trademark for Kris Waldherr!” read the rest of this review . . .

“The Goddess Inspiration Oracle is very multicultural which I always like and it was also something very user friendly. It is perfect for a one card pull. This deck is something that I would use as there are times when I don’t want to use my own decks especially for my own personal readings, cuz let’s face it using my own deck can get to be, just too much “me”sometimes.

I think even though there are some cards that have grown up themes I
would still highly recommend this deck for teens. My daughter just
turned 15 and I think she would enjoy the ‘girl power’ energy of
this all goddess oracle with the meanings printed right on the card.
I found the Goddess Inspiration Oracle to be both educational and
inspirational. . . .

I give the Goddess Inspiration Oracle a thumbs up for content, multicultural, the feminine divine and art.” read the rest of this review . . .

Meanwhile, I’ve got several posts percolating within me. One of them is about this piece of art (detail posted below):

A tip of the hat to anyone who can identify the painting, the artist and the quote. A hint: think fin de siecle Vienna.
