What is an oracle?
Oracle cards are also known as divination cards.

Which oracle cards to choose?
There are plenty of oracle card decks, all with different characteristics.
It is best to listen to yourself to choose the deck, with appealing images.

Some people pick one card, others pick several.
The main thing is not to think too much.
