Your Animal’s Oracle cards docked into Brisbane today.
The cards will sit in customs until next week and then will make the journey to Lucy’s home a few hours away. Very soon they will be available to buy for your very own.
Stay tuned for more updates!
Here is the Hercules Publishing logo! The logo was designed by Naomi Baker of Intuitive Creative. I asked Naomi to include an image of a horse or a winged horse to honour my horse Hercules after whom this business was named. Great job Naomi!
Just three very special advance copies of Your Animal’s Oracle have arrived!
These three decks of cards lead the way for the first shipment of oracle cards that are due to arrive in Australia in mid-June this year.
The official launch of Your Animal’s Oracle is to be held at Canine Cubby in Yatala (Brisbane) on Saturday 1st August 2009. Festivities will kick off at 2pm with animal readings and a mini workshop on animal communication. Food and drinks will be supplied. Come along and meet the author and pick up one of the first sets of Your Animal’s Oracle–the first of their kind!

Your Animal’s Oracle contains 32 cards. What is the significance of this?
When I was being guided to create Your Animal’s Oracle I asked Source early on in the process how many cards there would be in the pack. I immediately received a clear number: 32.
For me there are two things of interest in this number. The first (as suggested by my husband) is that 32 is the multiple of 4 and 8. Four is the number of foundations and the elements of nature. (It could also be symbolic of ‘four paws’.) And eight has always been my favourite number and symbolises infinity and realised vision. Both of these numbers work well with these cards as we take the energy of nature (in our animals) and realise its full potential.
The second thing to note is that 32 becomes the number 5 in numerology (3+2=5). Five is an interesting number because it sits right in the middle with 1-4 behind it and 6-9 in front of it. So the number 5 becomes the point at which we can choose a direction in which to live. If we don’t like what has come before this moment in time then we can choose to look ahead into a new direction. Five becomes one of those numbers that people see as a flip number: either good or bad. But I think this is terribly simplistic. The key to the number 5 is choice. You have a choice as to which direction to take. In this sense 32 (5) becomes a very powerful number for Your Animal’s Oracle because it empowers the user to make a choice about their relationship to their animal.
For further interest in this numerology:
32 is the flipside of 23 and if you happen to get hold of the DVD of the 2007 movie The Number 23 (starring Jim Carey) you will find in the extras a lengthy and detailed discussion of the numbers 23 and 32.
You can also read about the number 32 here.
After many years in production, Your Animal’s Oracle is on its way!
The final design of the cards has been sent to the printers and the cards should be in Australia in June 2009 (all going well).
I’d like to especially thank my designer, Naomi Baker, of Intuitive Creative for her beautiful work and guidance in getting the cards this far. Creating cards is much like creating a picture book, I think, requiring a finely balanced dance between the writer and illustrator. Naomi has done a wonderful job!
To stay up-to-date of the progress of these cards, email herculespublishing@live.com with ‘Mailing List’ in the subject line. You could be one of the first to receive your copy of Your Animal’s Oracle.
