Manifesting
Your Greatness is
a freshly stylized, abstract oracle deck. Chance designed this deck
to offer wisdom and insight in a fun, colorful, and artistic way.
The deck has 46-cards and comes with a 104-page paperback guide-book. The book and deck are housed in a heavy-duty, cigar style box. The box has a magnetic closer and royal blue pull tab and stays.
The cards measure slightly over 2 3/4" wide x 4 3/4" tall. The images are printed on thin and flexible card stock. The edges are gilded royal blue. The finish on the cards makes them noisy when shuffled. They do fan well. The card backs are not reversible friendly but the deck is meant to be read in the upright orientation. The card fronts do not have the card number but they are alphabetical in the guide-book.
The guidebook has a very brief opening and jumps right into the cards. It is fully illustrated and gives many amusing and smart interpretations. The messages are witty, insightful, and look to the bright side.
The deck's stylized art is vivid and lively. Here are some fun examples:
Card
26 Mull it Over
The guidebook says "Your allowed to say let me
think about it unless talking to a cop. My mother says she has a
crock-pot mind (as opposed to a microwave mind). Not everyone who is
smart is also quick.”
Card 30 One Small Change
Here the message is to change one little thing. Buy a new plant for your desk, try a new channel on Pandora, or don't' answer the phone.
Card 36 Simplify
With this one we read about making life easier by lightening the load, letting go of stuff, and not getting bogged down by emotions, possessions, or details. Manifesting Your Greatness can be used right out of the box by the beginner all the way through to the professional reader. It would be used for well suited for a daily draw for insight and inspiration. It would be wonderful for a d for one card draw, for clients at the close of a reading session.
