I have so enjoyed this deck over the years. When I first recieved it, following the easy directions for use, I was able to determine my entire totom (all the animals that influence me). I found it to be amazingly accurate. The system allows the user to understand the symbolic meaning of the animals which appear to us, in dreams, in person, or I even count the ones on TV. Thier messages are always timely and useful. The cards are lovely, the book is complete, easy to use, with just wonderful stories that make it very easy to remember and use the system quickly. I love it. Thanks to the creators.
I love this set, I kept my cards a secret to myself for the first few weeks I had them, but the identification of the reading and the situtaion I was questioning was eerie - so I asked various people who visited if they would not mind having a "Go" with the cards, well now my friends, family and acquaintences beleive I am a Shaman Sacred Card reader, this may be so but I believe it is the book and card set that are the true hero, as long as the person giving the reading has respect for the essense of the set the truth will Out. A teriffic gift to give someone interested in the subject of Native American Wisdom, it is so much fun to see a friends face change into the "Oh my god how did you know that" look. All readings are positive (I don't mean polite I mean give positive guidance for good news or bad) but one would have to be dim not to understand the significance of every card reading. If I can make sense of the set anybody can - The cards are Beautiful and the book print size is big enough for my bad eyesight, for late night reading with a bedside lamp.
These cards are so powerful. I have worked with them before receiving readings from others, but I've never had my own deck. I have such a deep connection to animals I figured it was about time I get these for myself. They are beautiful, and you can feel the love, heart, and soul that was put into them. I picked my totem animals the same night I received them and felt so inspired. If these appeal to you in anyway, I recommend you follow your intuition and get them. They will not disappoint. A must have for any earth lover who has a spiritual bond with animals.
All of my friends who own this deck agree that the Medicine Cards are powerful and accurate. The stories are beautiful tales -- not overly descriptive and bogged down with tedious facts like a text book. They're spiritual stories that open up the reader to the universe and everything in God's creation through animals.Native Americans found their source and power through their deep connection with the land and animals of this continent; and Jamie Sams and David Carson have done an excellent job of sharing some of these stories with us.For those who are "open" spiritually, you should find the readings very accurate. Whether you're a devoutly spiritual Christian, a Buddhist, or simply a spiritual being -- these cards can teach you about the world of the original North Americans.
I have the original version with the Red, woven cloth, hardcover book & cards, but wanted the newer expanded version. I had a hard time making sure I bought the right set, because there are a lot of sellers on now that are deceptive in their products. This should always be a book & card set, wrapped in cellophane and manufactured in the U.S., but I've seen many reviews where people are only getting the book w/o the cards. Don't believe that it's new if it doesn't come wrapped. Now, I realized you can't even rely on that either. I called , trying to find out how I could make sure it's manufactured in the US. They said my best bet was to purchase one that said sold & shipped by .The lack of quality isn't 's fault - it's Jamie, David & the publishing company's, and it's TERRIBLE! I value and use these Medicine cards for years, but this new set will be warn out in no time. Although the book is a hard-back, it has a very cheesy thin paper cover, the pages are super thin and the cards are half as thick as the original deck, very flimsy & poor print quality. Even pulling the brand new cards out of the box, there are lifted edges, so the tacky blue top covering is scratching off & showing white. Wish I could upload a picture to show them to you. I'm returning these. I have a friend that has this expanded version and they are manufactured in the US with the same durable book as the old one. You'll know right away just by the box and should have as well. Right on the bottom of the box, it says Box & Cards Manufactured in China (of course, in the tiniest of writing). Inside the book, it also says printed in China. My friends book says printed in the US and only has 1 ISBN #. These have 2. I assume 1 for the US and 1 for China.SHAME ON YOU JAMIE & DAVID!!! As Native Americans yourselves, I would have expected better. This is disrespectful to Spirit as well as your own culture & mine. Go back to Bear & Co.!
I've been using these cards for years with remarkable results. After trying Tarot, I Ching, and other divinatory practices, I always come back to the Medicine Cards. I'm always astounded by how profound and accurate the readings are. The animals always reveal to me what I'm ignoring or neglecting or give me added insight into situations. The thoughts expressed in the explanations (meanings) of the animals are beautiful and spiritually uplifting. The cards themselves are also beautiful. My whole experience with the cards and the text has been wonderful. I highly recommend them as an adjunct to any spiritual path, especially those that seek greater harmony with nature.
