Context, an aunty of mine got into angel oracle decks back in 1996, and since I was a still toddler. She did her practice around me. So I've grown up around card divinations for the past 30 years.
I got into tarot on my own in 2018 and started more tarot practice since 2020. I'm better with oracles. I'm getting angel decks to show appreciation for how i started out with divination readings, and also bring back some memories of my childhood.
I also use the Ancestor(s) term, instead of the angel term. So, I'll be re-wording some stuff.
Past:
• Archangel Micheal
Expressing of all the hardships and troubles. Yes, I have dealt with quite a bit of a struggling past, just more on the environment that was difficult to get away from. Just from sone individuals that were stagnate.
Life lessons, and just more hope to help another to work on their healing process a bit more better than I have been dealing with. I would assume to give the past problems and issues onto the other realm for some help on a spiritual level, I guess. For me, I'm more with using the term ancestors, instead of angels. I have experienced asking ancestors for help, helps a bit more for me to be given signs when it's been heard.
Present:
• Meditation
Meditation is a common message I've been getting for a long time, now. It's been pretty difficult to find a spot that is quiet to do this. I'm also trying to heal this, cause one of my shadow selves is irritated with silence. The past was pretty rough to be in. I haven't had a monkey mind before, so it's a learning curve with meditation. I do yoga, too, but I also have a little monkey climbing on me 🤭 I'm a mom to a toddler, so it's just a lot of movement and noise for now 🤭😊
Future:
• Emerging
Meditating would be able to help bring me back to myself. Sense of self that would be emerging and coming out again. Expressing myself would also help, sharing about my things in life would help and/or inspire others.
Yesterday, this self reading and my other self reading, that I shared on my blogs-have both stated to just express myself and share what I've gone through. My Messy Truth deck was straight needing Trigger Warnings, and this deck, is a bit more gentle and more on the advice of what to do, what would help, and why it would help. (Messy Truth Blog Post)
Bottom of the Deck Energy:
• Celebration
This a bit complicated, cause my 20s was pretty chaotic to live in, back then. Indication of this card, is that whatever I was manifesting is starting to take form now. I was only 22, and made a big mistake of not listening to my intuition that just screamed at me back in 2016 "Turn around now!", "Leave. Go back home.", cause if I listened to that, I would have saved myself a lot of grief. Things turned chaotic real quick, and lost myself in it, including my hope to even get out of it. 7 years felt like life times and life times, but eventually got it out. If your intuition screams at you, listen to it. Just to say.

Back story of this deck. When I got the deck, I realized i recognized 3 cards from when I was like 5 or 6 years old. I do remember seeing how this deck looked brand new and just published. But it isn't the first deck I was first introduced with, back in 1996. Cause this deck was published in 1999.
