Description

Design and Artwork

Portals of Presence: Faces Drawn from the Subtle Realms by Deborah Koff-Chapin is a unique 72-card oracle deck that offers a profound way to engage with the subtle realms. Each card features a captivating face, drawn not with traditional tools but through the artist’s hands directly, creating an intimate and direct connection with the artwork. The large card size (4.5” x 6”) provides ample space for deep contemplation, while the glossy stock enhances the clarity and subtlety of the muted colors.

Symbolism and Themes

The deck is a visual exploration of the human face as a universal language, each card radiating a unique presence and energy. These images, created in the presence of ancient trees, mountains, and sacred places, invite users to form a deeper relationship with themselves and the world. The deck encourages an intuitive approach, without specific meanings, numbers, or keywords, allowing for a personal and transformative experience with each card.

User Experience

The accompanying guidebook provides creative suggestions for working with the cards, such as pairing them with SoulCards for deeper insight. The focus is on using the cards as tools for tuning in and cultivating intuition, encouraging users to engage with both the faces they are drawn to and those that challenge them. The deck is versatile, suitable for exploring personal insights, spirit guides, and emotional landscapes.
