Jewish Mysticism Knowledge - 48 cards on the language of Kabbalah
This is not an oracle deck. These are knowledge cards. Each of the 48 cards explains one specific Kabbalistic concept, with a term or symbol on one side and a clear explanation by Ira Steingroot on the other.
The set is published by Pomegranate and designed as an educational tool. You can use the cards to build your knowledge of Kabbalah step by step, or to refresh what you already know. The format is compact enough to take anywhere.
What the cards contain
The cards cover the core of Kabbalistic thinking. The Sefirot, the ten divine attributes or emanations, receive attention. So does Tikkun Olam, the concept of repairing the world through human action.
Each concept is described in clear language. Steingroot translates abstract mystical ideas into understandable sentences without erasing the depth. The texts are concise but precise.
The cards are printed on sturdy cardstock and delivered in a durable storage box. These are not playing cards, but educational cards you pick up regularly and work through slowly.
How you work with them
Many people draw one card each day and read it through calmly. This gives the Kabbalistic concept time to settle. You can also use the cards thematically, for instance by studying all cards about the Sefirot one after another.
The set works both as a first introduction to Kabbalah and for people who already have some prior knowledge. There are no practical instructions or spreads, just a clear explanation per concept.
Draw one card and let the text work on you for a day or longer. The concepts are rich enough to reread several times.

Questions we often get
Can I use these cards as an oracle or for readings?
These are educational cards, not a divination tool. They are designed to transfer knowledge, not to predict future events or give answers to personal questions.
Do I need prior knowledge to work with these cards?
No. The explanation is clear enough for beginners, but also offers depth for people who already have some knowledge of Kabbalah. Each concept is explained on its own.
