In March of 2018, I signed a contract with Hay House to create two new decks. People are always surprised at how long it takes to publish something like a tarot deck. In comparison, books are a piece of cake. But tarot and oracle decks require way more planning – not to mention the work of an artist. One of those two decks is scheduled to come out in October of 2022. The other one, will be released on Wednesday, October 6th. It feels to me like it’s taken closer to four years to get here rather than two and a half. But I am more excited about Angel Wisdom Tarot Cards than anything I have ever done before.
When I envisioned Angel Wisdom Tarot, I wanted something different. Something unlike what I had done in the six decks that had preceded it. I wanted something that blended new and old symbolism and concepts. I wanted it to contain elements that I had never seen before in a tarot deck. But more than anything, what I wanted to give people was a deck that offered them an extra bit of help during challenging times. I never could’ve envisioned in my wildest dreams that Angel Wisdom would be published during some of the most difficult times my generation had ever seen.
One of my favorite things about working with the angels is that they can see what is coming even when we can’t. Clearly, their loving wisdom guided my hand in the creation of this deck in ways I couldn’t have foreseen. The Major Arcana is said to reflect major events in our lives. Well, we are certainly living those now. The Minor Arcana is seen as more day to day in nature. And yet, the day to day seems to be constantly turning us on our heads with major events!
Angel Wisdom Tarot Cards link every Minor Arcana “Pip” card (that’s the cards numbered Ace – Ten) to a Major Arcana card to help people get additional guidance on how to get through difficult situations. They also give us counsel on how to make the most of uplifting and exciting events in our lives. In addition to that, Angel Wisdom links those same “Pip” cards back to a particular Archangel who can provide comfort, protection, and wise counsel in both our daily lives and the big events that can define who we are.
The artwork by Dan Craig is luscious, sublime, and full of symbolism. Dan is my favorite artist I have ever worked with. He gave me what I asked for and more.
I have never been so proud of something I authored than now. I am so very honored to have been the angels’ and archangels’ channel for the time we are living through.
More than anything, I pray that it will give those who need it most comfort, insight, a sense that everything is going to be alright.
And it is going to be alright.
Angel blessings,
~Radleigh
How Memories Transform from “Meh” to Magical
I remember as a kid not particularly enjoying the fact that my birthday was so close to Christmas. My mom’s birthday was Christmas Eve so I’m sure it’s something she could relate to. Still, we were pretty poor. Money was very tight. And the cakes in the stores...
Energetic Weather Report for December 9th – 15th
This week I grabbed Archangel Power Tarot Cards for our Energetic Weather Report. The messages seemed designed for the Holiday Season. Monday and Tuesday be aware of your relationship with money. Don’t go crazy with gift giving if the result will be pain afterwards....
Manifesting with Archangel Ariel During the Holidays
Archangel Ariel is “the lioness of God.” My perception of her is as a flaming redhead with green eyes. She carries a bag from which she pulls gold coins that she tosses at those who request her help manifesting their needs. It’s important to think of those “coins”...
Energetic Weather Report for December 2nd – 8th
This week’s Energetic Weather Report comes from Angel Tarot Cards! Monday and Tuesday show creative work getting rewarded! Wednesday and Thursday is a rather emotional time - but in a good way. The weekend would make a great planning session with your guardian angels!...
Finding Joy with the Angels During the Holidays
I talk a lot about how (what I call) "The Season of Light" brings me so much joy. I use that phrase in order to be inclusive for as many belief systems as I can since they all seem to use light (presence or absence) as part of their practice. It’s easy for me to be...
Dear Radleigh – well, tomorrow (Tues) the cards will arrive (pre-ordered) and I’m so looking forward to receiving them. Just wanted to let you know how much I love you and the angels. Did you say somewhere we’re not to open the deck until party-time on the 13th? You’ve got to be kidding?!!
Omg! No! Of course you can open them! We’re just having a party to play with them on the 13th.
Hi! Radleigh, I am also excited about your new deck. Can’t wait to pre-order and start using them. Thank u
for being an awesome teacher.
Thank you for your guidance and inspiration. You are a ‘kick’ and I enjoy listening to you.
Oh Radleigh,
I feel this message straight from your heart! I am so happy for you!
I will definitely look at purchasing them, partly because they have been a true labour of love & because you always speak your truth from your heart.
Thank you for sharing your messages of love through Tarot cards <3
Thank you so much for your Love & light service Radleigh. I started to order them and got distracted. It’s very noisy these days. I have others and will definitely get back to completing my order.
I just purchased the new deck! Can’t wait to get it. I, too, link the Pips with Major Arcana cards when I’m reading them, so I’m eager to see how that is done in this new deck. I’m very excited to learn all of the symbolism embedded in each card! It’s funny, I have to confess that I have never resonated visually with any of Radleigh’s decks. It isn’t that I don’t think they are lovely (they are!), but I’m just not visually (or thematically?) drawn to them as I am to other cards. It’s just a personal preference. BUT–I can honestly say that Radleigh’s approach to the tarot (and other cards) does resonate with me more than that of others. I only say that to point out to anyone else who might not feel immediately drawn to the deck that it might still be worth checking out because when it comes to learning the tarot, I find that Radleigh’s decks are the absolute best there are to learn from, whether you are a beginner or someone who has experience with the tarot. (Having said that, I prefer to read Strength as 8 and Justice as 11, but I just make the adjustment as I’m reading them.) So for my intents and purposes, which are to use this deck as a study tool to learn more about how to read ANY tarot deck, I would agree that this definitely does look like it’s going to be the best deck yet! All that symbolism. Woohoo!
My dear heart Radleigh, i just received your new deck in the mail, the process of prayers and blessings and open the box and clearing, and then finally greeting each card as my newest friend- giving thanks to each Archangel for loving me and asking for continued clear counsel and guidance for my readings- the colors, the art work, the exquisite messages, the overall feel is magic- I continue to be so very proud of you- your life’s work is exemplary, as is your genuine love and heartfelt universal caring – in your own words: “Life is magic” Sending you abundant Love-Blessings.
I am from Canada and I pre-order your new deck on Sept 30/2020 and still have not received them, and I wonder do I still get the free gifts since they were ordered through Indigo ( the only place to order from Canada)
Of course you can! Just go to https://www.radleighvalentine.com/angelwisdom and drop in your info!
