Hi!
Does anyone have (or have had) the Crystal Mandala Oracle by Alana Fairchild?
I got it a week ago after reading and watching so many reviews that were super positive and recommended it.
I like the artwork, and I am usually a fan of Alana (I love three of her decks! And the guidebooks!), but this one... Hmm. I don't know.
I'm a bit annoyed by the constant references to her other products in the guidebook ("if you like numbers you should get the book Bla Bla Numbers by Alana Fairchild as well" and similar).
I feel like it's a bit of an odd mish-mash of things too... Crystals, mandalas, ascended master, goddesses, angels...?! I was personally drawn to the crystal part of the deck, not so much the angel stuff, since I don't agree with the Virtue/Fairchild idea that angels are here to just serve us anything we want etc.
With that said, bad first impression yeah... But I want to try it out (it's pretty )and might just go fully intuitive and ignore the guidebook for now. I was thinking I'd go with the card title and the crystal, but maybe ignore the number and angel stuff...
Any thoughts on this deck? The guidebook? Ideas on how to use it?
