Nature Divination
Category: Divination
Website Profile: Nature Divination with the Earth Deck
"The Earth Deck is a wonderful, magical tool for divination that reminds us what our true sacred text is: nature herself. A great tool for activating the intuition and imagination. And Gaiamore's beautiful images can be enjoyed
just for themselves!"
Starhawk, activist, organizer, and author www.starhawk.org
The Earth Deck contains 52 laminated, 8x8 inch large photocards of many aspects of Nature. The cards are durable, easily seen in group settings, and perfect for a variety of interactive or solitary practices. The photo that appears on the back of each card is a compelling picture of a crystal ball on the earth, suggesting the idea that if we look deeply to the earth for guidance, we will gain all the knowledge we seek. As a display object, each card is beautiful to look at and evokes a sense of awe in the magnificence and power of nature. A reversible handcrafted cloth pouch is available for the Deck.
Nature divination with The Earth Deck is a unique and powerful experience that leads to self-discovery through attunement with the inherent wisdom of Mother Earth. Because the images are unaltered photos of nature herself, no esoteric explanations are necessary. The teaching comes from each individual's personal relationship with the image - visually, emotionally, intuitively, and spiritually. Because of this, The Earth Deck is an ideal tool for earth-based spiritual practitioners as well as for professionals in traditional fields of psychotherapy, counseling, and education.
The Earth Deck appeals to everybody. People of all ages and gender, from all walks of life, from various religious beliefs, and of different cultural backgrounds can use this deck for personal growth and enjoyment. All of us belong to the Earth. There are no particular credentials needed to appreciate and learn from nature.
One of our main challenges in life is to create space for deeply honoring the gifts of nature and to achieve balance with the natural world. Nature divination with The Earth Deck is one creative and easy way to do this. The Earth Deck with its simple elegance makes it easy for everyone to return to Mother Nature for healing, comfort and wisdom.
"Reading the book of nature, becoming acquainted with nature's patterns by watching the sun, the moon, and the stars, can educate a person in the mysteries of the body and soul. The byproduct of this kind of education of the heart is a life full of warmth, charm, and meaning." -Thomas Moore

Gaiamore, (Gail Morrison, M.Ed.) , artist and photographer, is an eco-therapist and teacher of earth-based spiritual practices who facilitates personal growth and healing through deep seeing using images of nature.

More Testimonials
It's hard to put into just a few words the magic that has come into my life through my sessions with Gail Morrison. I would describe her elegant therapeutic approach as a complex web of techniques woven seamlessly together and crafted for each individual. Attending to my dreams, somatics and feelings, she has listened to Psyche and has guided me—through active imagination/trance—toward my own healing. Gail is an exemplary therapist, holding my uniqueness sacred and empowered. Embedded in the life giving forces of Nature, Gail has guided me safely, with dynamically compassionate skill, to new levels of awareness and self-understanding. My process with her has enabled me to move beyond the limits of inescapable conditioning into the expansiveness of my core potential.
With so much love and gratitude,

"The Earth Deck has a lot of power. Extremely riveting and compelling, the images of the earth remind us of our deepest, most primitive selves. They take us into our own inner landscape where we don't often sit. Working with this deck is not a mind game like some other tools of introspection. The pictures evoke a non-verbal response that remind us of who we are."
Donna Read, Canadian Filmmaker

"When I cannot make the opportunity to actually step out onto the land and immerse my self in her beauty and gifts, I sometimes pull a card from the Earth Deck. When I do so, I am often thrown into a reverie, a dialogue with that aspect of grandmother's beauty that is suddenly gracing my vision close up through the wonderful photograph. While not a substitute for encountering the earth first hand, this beautiful set of cards can serve as a reminder of what awaits us just outside our door and can stimulate imagery journeys that deepen our love and gratitude for the other than human beings that populate our planet."

"I have just received your stunning nature Divination deck and I had to tell you how much I love it! In presentation and use, it is so delightfully unexpected, and so beautifully produced. Having the cards so large and enigmatic makes for a very unique and wondrous experience.
As the producer of the SF Bay Area Tarot Symposium (SF BATS) - not to mention something of a divination system junkie - I would love to be able to have more people experience this wonderful work."

"I've had the good fortune to have a Japanese woman staying here for the last few days. She is friend to the Buddhist nun who organized the Peace Walk I was on last summer. Tonight, after the lovely meal she prepared, I shared your gorgeous deck. Simply put, Kioko is in awe. I wish you could see her excitement.
She speaks very little English and I don't know any Japanese, but her face and vocalizations say it all. Your images of the Goddess pour forth from every card and are clearly a universally understood language."

This month's recommended set of cards is a non-tarot deck, the Earth Deck by Gaiamore (Gail Morrison) . It's made up nature photographs on 52 sturdy cards measuring 8" x 8". They're laminated and large enough for differing eye strengths to see. ...When I first opened the gorgeous bag and looked through the deck, I kept gasping, "Sooo beautiful..." Whether for meditation, divination, counselling, ritual, journaling, group work, or admiring beautiful art, the Earth Deck is a pack of cards you'll treasure. If you choose, they can come in a handmade cloth bag.
I asked the Earth Deck this question: "Whom do you serve?" to which it responded with an image of the Grand Canyon. This suggests to me that the Earth Deck serves those who expose the many layers of themselves as they slowly and patiently carve a deep, grounded place within. These cards serve the wilderness within and the wilderness without, offering insights that create sturdy channels within ourselves through which life might flow. Wow!

"Last year, I purchased one major thing, and that was Gaiamore's deck. I wanted to share with you that the Earth deck is a powerful divinatory tool that will settle into your soul once you use it for readings. I used mine last night to begin a tarot reading and the images were clear and powerful.
If you can support Gaiamore's work by purchasing her deck, you will be rewarded with the most beautiful inspiring and spiritual images that will remain with you long after you put the deck back in its sacred spot."

"When we learn to read Tarot we study the meanings of numbers and elements, and most of all, especially from modern decks, we learn to think in pictures and interpret them. Gaiamore's Earth Deck not only furthers our skill in finding our own meanings in the beautiful images from Nature, but also leads us into divination by simply gazing at the sky, the lake, and the patterns of leaves in the world around us. Gail's beautiful mystical photographs help us feed our souls."
