Oracle Cards A Wikipedia Definition This short introduction is taken from the wikipedia online encyclopedia and offers an overview on the different types of oracle card decks...   Oracle card decks claim to provide insight and positive outlooks to people. They are conceptually similar to divinatory tarot cards, but they are often not divided into playing card suits. They often lack what is often seen as the "darker" images of traditional tarot cards. Unlike the Tarot, oracle cards are not known to be used for card games. Oracle decks often differ in the number of cards. Common themes used in oracle card decks involve the power of positive thought and metaphysical beings such as angels, fairies, mermaids and unicorns. These cards are sometimes called "fortune telling packs"   Some of the earlier "Oracle" or "fortune telling" cards are similar to conventional playing cards and may even carry the French suit system. These fortune telling cards often claim a "Gypsy" tradition of cartomancy and pre-date the New Age movement by a great many years. One type of early fortune telling pack named after famous cartomancer Marie Anne Lenormand is popular in Europe. In recent history tarot cards have been used for divination, however this is not known to have been their original use. The earliest uses of tarot cards are for trick taking card games which are still enjoyed today in Europe.   Websites with further information: Free Tarot Reading Psychic Mystery - free tarot reading cards and online information about how to tell your future! http://www.psychic-mystery.com/free-tarot-reading
Kwan Yin The World’s Most Consulted Oracle Kwan Yin is venerated by most Asian religions as a savior and the Goddess of Mercy. For thousands of years, in one way or another, Eastern cultures have been worshipping Kwan Yin, Kuan Yin, Quan Yin, Kannon, and Guan Yin, as the Most Compassionate Goddess of Mercy.	Wikipedia Definition: Oracle An oracle is a person or agency considered to be a source of wise counsel or prophetic opinion. It may also be a revealed prediction or precognition of the future, from deities, that is spoken through another object or life-form (e.g.: augury and auspice).   In the ancient world many sites gained a reputation for the dispensing of oracular wisdom: they too became known as "oracles," and the oracular utterances, called khresmoi in Greek, were often referred to under the same name — a name derived from the Latin verb orare, to speak.
