You are so right about this deck. It is beautiful and innocent and safe. It all makers sense. Very useful deck. Love it. Will buy it for my grand daughter. ❤ It's intelligent & brilliant. This is seriously an amazing deck.
One of my goals of 2022 is to consistently do shadow work but I'm bracing myself for some emotional hard knocks. This is the cutest, sweetest, most precious deck I've ever seen and will be the perfect hug when I need it.
I really appreciate you putting words to how the Sacred Self Care compares to I'm Here deck.. Murphy's deck emphasizes the energy to encompass rather than tangible actions. I think that's why no other affirmation / meditation decks have strung a chord with me as much as this one has.
Same. I've not found a self care deck that I resonated with- aside from reclaim. But like Lisa said the Reclaim is about identification. I go to it when I can't quite face the negative feeling. Reclaim doesn't have after care or how to sit with that feeling and let it go. I'm excited for this deck because it's more than identification or actions to feel better temporarily.
Lisa, I appreciate your passion for healing and the specific suggestions for how the decks can be used. As some who has dealt with anxiety from the loss of a loved one when I was very young, my mother's advice of "Just don't feel that way" never cut it for me. Mom did keep it all going which was commendable, but I have found I need to identify the emotion, sit with it, place it in a context, reality test what is going on now, and release the emotion. Finding the opposite emotion also helps restore balance. Thank you, Lisa, for your dedication to healing yourself and others!!
I definitely backed this one and I'm super excited to receive it. These cards just hit me in the feels in the best way! Love the backdrop you chose for showcasing this deck. Perfect pairing!
This deck is really good at highlighting the process of healing; the steps you take on the healing path. I don't think it is the same as self care deck. I really like it and I think the creator did a great job!!! Some of the best decks I find come from the people who have been on this journey for themselves.
This video pushed me over the edge. As someone who suffers from PTSD, this deck could be extremely useful to me and my healing journey. Thank you for sharing!
Oh wow this is so beautiful!! I absolutely love describing it as an aftercare sort of deck lol that seems really fitting. I’m so glad it’s going to be available after the Kickstarter cause I NEED it! XD I’m making a self care oracle deck because I didn’t jive with the sacred self care oracle and this deck will be the /perfect/ supplement to it! Ah! So exciting!
I NEED this deck. Thank you for your preview. This is my first Kickstarter backing EVER! Glad I was able to get in on this. Excited to see those stretch goals come to fruition.
I backed!!! Thank you for shepherding this one, it is so special! This morning I was thinking of more pairings and when I thought of Monstarot, the word that popped in for me was "oversoul". Now I can't think of it in any other way. Though sweet and adorable it feels so big...
Yeah, I'm going downstairs and supporting the Kickstarter as soon as this video is over! I think it will "pair" AMAZINGLY with the Reclaim and Self Care oracles to make some absolutely incredible self care readings!! Definitely beyond excited about this deck! Thank you so much for sharing this because I don't check out Kickstarter all that often.
I backed it too! I hesitated but your enthusiastic love of this deck and how much you wanted to make it happen (even going so far as to contacting the deck creator to help and create a SUPER quick video before the kickstarter ended) made me push the back button.
A thought on how I can see all three decks working in tandem. One card from the Reclaim Oracle to identify the root of the issue. One card from Sacred Self Care to suggest something to do that will assist the mental healing card from the I'm Here. Although the Sacred Self-Care can be used in this hypothetical spread as the physical component, it's not essential.
I think this deck is what I wanted Deja Drewit's Personal Power deck to be. Just in terms of introspection that I didn't feel quite land with her deck (it felt very repetitive after a while). I'm pretty sure I got the last "one of everything" pledge, so I'm excited to see how it works for me. :)
Yayyyyyy!! :) I hear you on Personal Power - I enjoyed working with that one for a time but had the same experience as you eventually! This one feels infinitely *usable* which is what I'm all about!
So glad you showcased this, i had to go and back it! As someone who really is looking to dive deep into shadow work this year and who also struggles with disassociating especially when it comes to processing particularly difficult emotions i feel that this deck could be a really helpful tool and hopefully a good companion for my healing journey. I’m definitely interested in looking into the Reclaim Oracle now too, i find that the Poesis Oracle deck has also been quite helpful to me in terms of identifying the emotion lately, if anyone also resonates with poetry and is looking into decks of that nature it might be worth checking out too. Thanks Lisa! You really are a gem of this community! 🙏💙
I backed it as a gift for my daughter who is now 13 years old. I hope it will help her navigate her feelings and put a priority on self-care. Thank you for the review to help us all decide! ❤️
I backed it this am after I saw your hot takes ! So glad you shared your thoughts 💕 and thank you for the walk through 💕💕 I have to add I also bought the Dream Visions recently and woooo that deck is just amazing! You are wonderful! Thanks for all you share !
Well, I only want to back 3 Kickstarters this year and it looks like I'll only have 2 left for the rest of the year LOL The art doesn't speak to me, but those keywords, phrases, and booklet explanations + prompts DEFINITELY speak my speak! As someone who has cPTSD and gone through depression, anxiety, etc. this deck seems right up my alley. Another Lisa made me do it! (And I'll probably be super glad for it!) Now I'm SO excited to see how many stretch goals we can unlock!
Thanks for making this video, Lisa! I'd seen the deck whilst looking at tarot decks on Kickstarter and passed it by as not applicable for me. However, with things that have come to light within the life and heart of my changeling grrl (teen non-binary born feem), I think they would really benefit from this deck. They need help developing better coping mechanisms and this could be the right match for between actual therapy sessions. :) They used to be really into pastels when they were a little girl, but now that typical teen gothy colors have come into play, but evenso I think the soft fluidity of this deck will be soothing. I love how it looks like a soul not even a body. I think you're other activity-based deck is good too tho. I can see how all your decks work together in steps: Identify the issue (Reclaim), find the spiritual 'solution' for lack of a better word (I'm Here), follow with an actual real world step so as not to just sit in a state (Self-Care), and paired along with that cool Tarot can give the full perspective on circumstances.
Yays .. it is here :) Edit: those pairings … and I had no idea reclaim is back in pre-order. Oh noes! I thought I will order it in march and even with the self care deck .. these three is like a complete care kit! 🥺. Now, when you mentioned the monstarot !!! I never got it but that pairing is perfect too. Ahhhh
I should have shown it next to Monstarot! :D But yes it would work well. I also think it would work well next to other gentle decks I have (like Guardian Angel Tarot). :)
I did back it after your hot take but this solidifies my decision at first I felt it wasn't needed but I don't have a self care deck as I don't want one that tells me what to do. I did have fomo yesterday but today and this walk through its a yes this is a good choice your not missing out on it for the right reasons.
I like your video on 2022 Planning. I made a conscious effort to limit my oracle and tarot purchases this year. I did back this one. So one less already for the year. With the vast amount of new decks being released, it would be good to talk about controlling your purchases, lol, which you are doing a good job on your channel. I kind of made a list checklist.
I was just watching your hot takes videos over lunch and was looking at this on kickstarter when I saw you uploaded this video! I’ve never backed a kickstarter before and I had to skim this video while at work hahaha - my question is, is there a date for when the decks will be finalized and shipped after the kickstarter ends?
It's estimated for March per the campaign page... but essentially - after the Kickstarter ends and funds are in the creators hands (which can take about a month?) then typically files are sent to the printer to authorize production. I always relax my expectations a bit because there have been tons of logistics snafus lately with covid.... so probably sometime between spring & summer we'll have these in hand!!! :)
This makes me regret that I'm in a depth year 😩 Also I have no idea why but one comparison I expected (probably because that's what I've been weighing it with in terms of should I shouldn't I...? 😆) was with the Spread Machine.
A depth year is partly about being introspective and communing with your self. If you have the budget for it, I think this deck would be a purchase that is less about "adding to your collection of stuff" and more about connecting with your self. I think it's justifiable in a depth year. I'm on a low-buy but I backed this deck yesterday because I think it will bring a new facet to my tarot practice and my inner-self work.
I think you should trust yourself - either way. I will say that when I tried to do a SUPER RESTRICTIVE depth year, it didn't really work out for me. I think if you're making mindful purchases that are carefully considered and feel good about them (provided it's in your budget etc), then you can allow yourself that without fudging up your depth year
Oh my! I was about to pledge for the deck in kickstarter but was unable to because it does not accept PayPal ;_; It's beautiful and I hope to get it another time. Thank you for showing it to us, Lisa!
As I back this yesterday after hot takes I just checked and only one last goal to meet, and tbh I’m not sure what that is lol. I’m thinking this deck will match well with my badass baby unicorn 2! Same colours and non humans
The last stretch goal is a set of Enneagram cards - it is unlocked now! The Enneagram is a bit like a personality test but I like it MUCH more than others (like Myers Briggs, etc) bc the enneagram focuses on internal motivations, fears, and behavior. I think it’s a great tool!
I purchased the Linescape Tarot to go with my I'm here deck when it finally gets here. #lisamademebuyit. Hoping this hashtag catches on even though i don't know how that works in UA-cam comments.
Not yet, I don't think - but follow them on Social Media to be in the loop because I know there are plans for the deck to be available to the public once the Kickstarter campaign is fulfilled!
Hi Need to say The place i found to purchase it was the Kickstarter. But is is last comment i made to you hre, not long ago. They received my order and collected me for it but after nothing to tell me when i would get it. Has it been delivered to others yet??? Sorry to bother you about this. I responed to their email saying they had passed payment but i haven't heard back. Thanks for the follow up. I appreciate Carmen Borloz
The last update says they are waiting for the decks and then starts to send it and everyone should have by September/October..there has been delays from the original plan but I guess that is the risk backers take.
Actually, the decks has not yet shipped; at least for me and many others. Anyone had theirs shipped? We didn’t receive any update since the last one posted in July. Until then, Murphy was still collecting extra shipping money after mismanaging her funds and using part of them for her dental appointment + pet surgery. That money is left out of our pockets to that, she promised to pay it back but nothing. We are still waiting. A post was made stating that a donor has donated the remaining money for the shipping fees and she finally can send all the decks to everyone. Yet, that information didn’t go on Kickstarter and was solely kept for Instgram. Nothing about the deck. We don’t even know if the donor money was given to the shipping company. It is sadly taking a turn for the worse. I kept my patience but the red flags are a lot.
You're getting the base deck no matter what, because it's funded. The first three stretch goals (astrology, elementals, and celestial) are funded, but the last two (plants and enneagram) are not. There has to be another ~$15 000 USD before the enneagram set is unlocked.
Hi looks like decks are finally preparing to ship according to the most recent update from the creator: www.kickstarter.com/projects/murphypines/im-here-the-emotional-care-deck-that-feels-like-a-hug/posts/3938082

I really appreciate you putting words to how the Sacred Self Care compares to I'm Here deck..
Murphy's deck emphasizes the energy to encompass rather than tangible actions.
I think that's why no other affirmation / meditation decks have strung a chord with me as much as this one has.
Same. I've not found a self care deck that I resonated with- aside from reclaim. But like Lisa said the Reclaim is about identification. I go to it when I can't quite face the negative feeling.

I might pair this with the spacious tarot as a way to give space for the spirit without competing with other figures.
Omg this is so so pretty 😍 I like the soul looking character.
ME TOO!!!!
Oh wow this is so beautiful!! I absolutely love describing it as an aftercare sort of deck lol that seems really fitting. I’m so glad it’s going to be available after the Kickstarter cause I NEED it! XD
I’m making a self care oracle deck because I didn’t jive with the sacred self care oracle and this deck will be the /perfect/ supplement to it! Ah! So exciting!
