Weare planet ‘of wondrous ereatures of earth, sky and sea, soaring mountains and splendid forests and intelligent, astonishing beings. Behind ‘what we se li further wonders ~ realms berween realms, worlds between worlds, Some arewich wail just beyond the veil ofsight, and some we will experience when we ae in between lives. These ‘other worlds have been placed eatefully and deliberately behind the veils of whae we humans call ceality, in onder to provect and preserve their wisdom and energies. They are now slowly revealing themselves allowing themselvesta be experienced and discovered, remembered and restored "To connect with them, we must use our inner vsion and out deepest intuition, return to our most natural and crue self and learn listen, co see, to remember, Their wisdom iscallingto you, and within this deck le some of their secrets, and many of theit messages, filled with loving and inspcing guidance ‘Creating this deck hasbeen ajourney ~one which I undertook asakind of vision quese into realms that are most often explored ‘within deep shamanie workor when we deliberately set out to walk beeween the worlds, What is found chee is ofen misunderstood in our world a cis at present ~ a beautifl world, filled wih ‘wonder, yes itis, but a world also in the birthing stages of ies neat evolutionary sep. We humans are at a very interesting point in our development, We have been seduced by a world that is4 construction ofthe human imagination ~ one in which large ‘companies rule countries and where these countries are locked in false baces, a world in which the exenial, he simple, the loving, ‘the magickal, ate unseen and sometimes i seems, drifting further into the mists, deeper inc che forest, ou of ight ro most people, asthey are numbed bythe drugs of television, violence and despair. Butifwecurn away from these forms of amnesia, we wil begin ‘ofind our way back tothe kinds ofconsciousnes that allows to ‘walk beeween the worlds and visicchese dimensions these hidden worlds. Some are galactic, others ae realms oftime, others still are the afterlife and the in-between ~ and some are the reals where beings who no longer fel safe ro walk with the humans have been placed, until such time 2s che humanised earch becomes a shelter forall, noc forthe Few. Uni then, we cn connect - we need simply stretch slightly beyond what we ae encouraged to think we have within uso fully begin to work with our capacity to sense what is juse beyond the fagade of whar seems tobe. This journeying to the hhidden worlds 2 beautiful, comforting and inspiring adventure. “The hidden worlds hold great gifts forthe pope and they remain safe within hose places, until such atime as we can begin coco «create world thats safe fr us all While we ae still evolving, we «an connect with the heavenly and earthly energiesby working with clear and sacred intention and divine instruments created for the purpose of illuminating the hidden worlds This deck is one such divine insrumene. ‘Some peoplc have been intermediaries between the world fhe ‘humans and che hidden worlds. These places have been searched for in vision quests, in meditation, in seeking the consciousness that allows us to see within, and beyond, The people who have most ‘offen journeyed co these worlds have been the mystics, the shamans,the witches and wizard, the monks, the philosophers the healers, the seers and sometimes even the saints. They have included the herbalise ofthe village, the wise woman, the sage, the oracle, the people who understand that finding hese worlds means movingour consciousness and awareness toa different place through changing the way wesce the world. or when we change the way wesee, what ‘wesee changes, too. Where once there was mountain peak, chere now is a goddess emerging behind the mountain, tending co its energy. Where once there was flower, there now i faery and a flower. Where once there was ansland in the sea, we can now see thedance ofthe dolphins and theholy man standingon chtisland, weaving the energy of their dance. “There are many ways to awaken to our own abilities to connect with whae is unseen. They include a quieting, 2 slowing of the chatter ofthe mind, a new way o focus and sil, undil the world ‘opens up lke the petals of a Bower. Some people drum, others chant, some walk barefoot, others speak tothe plants. But inthis world, most of us are not encouraged to do this. Even meditation has been taken over as something tha will help us work better, become better a our socially prescribed roles. But when we slow down and quieten, and really begin to feel our way back into our relationship withthe Universe, we willbe offered something richer = aspiritul connection tothe Divine tothe mystery within us,¢0 the sublime wonders that ie beyond ws. The hidden woeldsarenot simply places thaieberween words folded into other dimensions: theirmystrisals li within ou own cells,our DNA, the mysteries ‘of what is our soul, our awareness. ‘With this deck, and through the profound images of Gilbere ‘Williams, an artist who has seen beyond the veil and capeure, in pint and canvas, che realms that lie beyond the vision ofthe eyes, °yout0 wl ind your wayo some of those worlds sowell-hdden, bh now revealed to you within cis deck.

But i is worth approaching them with respect and honour. Ie is worth approaching yourself with the same “The Hidden Worlds you may encounter when working with this deck include: “The Afterlife We ate beings who experience many lifetimes ~ but-when we pass from the form we are in at this time ~ a precious and sacred being, and an articulation ofthe soul in material form ~ we will “go home” for a time. What this home is has been the source of great mystery: Within this deck, the afterlife as an experience is present ~ the sublime moments of eunion, the sense of peace and rightness, the reconnection with the higher selfand che knowledge of our other liferimes. “The In-Berween When weare beeween lifetimes, we have experiences, too — we lead the life ofthe higher self, or the most connected, most whole self foracime. We return to our own selfin avery rel way and we also connect with other souls who are apart of our soul family - these «an be family membersand friends, or people we have had dficule relationships with. There isasense of recognition and reason for out ‘encounters. Irisimportan to note thar weate not only connected tocother humans, or people who have been humans in their most recent incarnations.

Faris protec, cenergise, awaken and nureure. They are also fierce and protective, wild and fice, There are many, many diferene beings wichin che realm of Faerie, and you will encounter some of them within this deck, ‘Angelic Realms ‘Angels are messengers ~ sometimes understood to be the intermediaries between a being known as “God” and humans However, angels are inter-universllifeforms ~ able co move beeween realms, dimensions, galaxies and time itself. They are connected to a great source of creation energy. They are offen benevolent andhealing.Arother times, they are fierce and powerful in their energy. Angelic beings work to help and asiscus, and they also can be associated with particular places and energies. Within this deck, when chey appear, you are being shown the angelic forees ae work within che world, nd you will only encounter anges who are trustworthy, kind, and endlessly lovingDreaming Worlds ‘When we enter our dreams, we enter other worlds - and chese realms are often forgotten by our minds upon awakening, leaving usonly with ectng, ofenrancalsin glimpses of places and spaces wwe have journeyed to. Dreams are read, revered, and considered sacred ~ and within the most powerful of our dreams we journey into the hidden worlds. Within your cards, you will member where you have travelled and learn more about the importance of your ovn dream journeys, the lessons you have learned, the ‘universal truths you have remembered when in thae beautiful, magickal consciousnes. Galactic Worlds Beyond this plane le the heavens, within which dwell intelligent beings of many kinds. Sometimes called star-beings, they dvell fon the many otherworlds which area par ofthe cosmos ~ and they interact wich usofen through the energy ofigh and sound, sending messages telepathically, leting us know we are part of| something much lager than simply our earthly home. Some of | these energies ae interwoven into cis deck and willhelp us make contac with these most extraordinary hidden worlds, Beyond the Veil If we were tose, hear, fel and sense with all ofthe potential that lies within our DNA, we would not be able to physically handle it But wecan open up alittle atime = like the petals of lower ‘opening co the sun ~ and wean then begin o see more flly what is there, and what les beyond. We call his ling the vei, and this vel exists beeween worlds to protect those realms, and to protect us, oo. When we can see what lies beyond the vel, we ean more 8fully appreciate and sense the magick and the blessings that are alwaysaround us. These veils are lifted naruallyat particular times inthe earthly and galactic calendars ~ Samhain (known today a, Halloween) lifs che veil beween the realms ofthe ancestors and the humans. Litha,or the summer solstice iff the veils chat shroud the realms of fee, ach full moon and new moon, each solstice and equinox, every turning of the seasons means merging of the ‘known and he unknown, and foratime, we dance together, Within this dec, che realms that most often li juse beyond that veil can beseen and re-xperienced, HOW TO WORK WITH YOUR ORACLE OF THE HIDDEN WORLDS ‘You can begin immediatly to work with your deck for readings, bu it ean be precious wo take just afew moments to bles i before you begin. like to open my deck, feel che cards within my hands, then place chem in my lef hand, as this isthe hand that is most receptive and connects tothe righ side of che bran -thesde that ismose likely to grant us acces tothe hidden words [As Thold che dec, I feel its weight, and weleome i into my life introduce myself, quietly, in my mind - or you can introduce yourselfout loud ifyou wish ~ and then Thold the deck co my heart and infuse i with my love. then hold the deck to my throat, for the power of communication, then to my spire eye, fr insight and inspirstion, Tike to smudge my deck, play musi while Ise open it, oF simply have sweet silence. OF course, ifyou eannot wait to open your deck ifyour reading hisbook you've already openedit up!),you can open iton the ran, orin acafé on your way home aera busy day at work or simply st within your room or space within your home and open it up there. ‘You may like to smudge your deck, which can bea wonderful, calming exercise. Sage would be a wonderful choice, as would any herb bundle you feel drawn to, Like co keep alte mugwort (also known as artemisia) around as I work with this deck, asi is dreaming her, and dreams open the gates berween the worlds, as at lase our rational minds step back, and the powers of the ‘consciousness within us are given a greater degree of freedom of ‘expression during dreams Preparing to read Ieisawonderful practice tohavea space for yourself ead within. Justa table where you can comfortably si, with a candle, and a cloth you can spread your cards upon. Ilike my cloth tobe silk, i possible (chi a eradition for Tarot and Oracle card readers, due tothe energy of silk). Others prefer different fabrics ~ the choice ‘yours. ike a simple cloch, so che images havea background out of which eo emerge. fhe background cloth is very busy, it begins co interfere slightly withthe images. ach of usis different, so see what works for you, ike to, ata minimum, take cree deep breathsin and out, quite long breaths.

Other times, use nothing very much al, juse my hands, my breath the cards. (And sometimes, these are the most powerful tools ofall!)Shufling and handling your cards with sacred intent “To shuflle your cards, frst of all, if you have small hands, wen them so they are upright in your hands, rather than holding chem lengthwise. Why? Because ic will beso much easier! Ihave small Ihands myself, and I shufle this way and ie’ smooth and has ots ‘of flow.

There isa teal art to asking a question, and cards arenot oingto give yous yes/no scenario well, notalways. They sometimes canbe that blunt | find that iF do not have a question, o if 1am too shy ot nervous to ask the question (it daes happen), 1 ask the cards to share with me what I most need to know. However, once youinoduce a question, the cards are going tbe ableto get much -more precise for you, and give you alot more insight, I believe. Sometimes when I read for people, they shy away from asking a {question a all, and so I trust thatthe cards wil put together the story they need to hear for cheir soul's progress that day IFT was to have a reading myself, I would think about the {question before the reading, and then go withthe energy ofthe session and see what comes to mein that moment, aswell x what had contemplated in preparation.

Hike t include the date, the moon phase, the time, my mood and, ofcourse, the casds I received and what fel they meant. Ifyou are learning bout the deck, this is when i can be very helpful to read carefully ehrough ‘the guidebook, and make some note from the meaningchere,and scethe connections between what you fle from the cards, and what the meaning of che card is, This combination will help you find deeper meanings, est and develop your intuition, and help you get oknow the guidebook very well.Some people prefer gostaight to the guidebook, others never even use it~ I think a mixture of| ‘your intuition and the guidebook i always a great balance when ‘working with your Oracle ofthe Hidden Worlds (Clearing your deck csa matter of personal choice whether you allow other people to ouch your deck. I would suggest building up a very good bond with your eads before you share your cards with others ~ itis not selfish or rude, itssimply a way ofensuringthe primary connectionisberween you and your card.
