Product Review
I recently had the honor of being asked to review a non-Tarot divinatory deck and book called the Spirit of Truth. Based on a Native American theme, the 68 cards (and 17 page companion book) were channeled by a spirit energy called Sky Spirit in a dream state through Mr. Maurice Ramsey. (Note: Sky Spirit is referred to as a Virtues Angel, an energy that never takes on a physical body, but prefers to work with us through the dream state. He chooses to come to those that are ready to receive his Love, Light and Wisdom.) Before I talk about the book and deck, I am going to go into a bit of Mr. Ramsey's background. (There is a reason that this material was channeled through him, I believe.) Ramsey holds Doctorates in Metaphysics and Theology, is a Seichim/Reiki Master/Teacher, founder and director of the House of Miracles Holistic Healing Center, and has taught classes in healing and meditation for over twenty years. He is also the author of the Healing With Seichim/Reiki Handbook, and has worked in the areas of healing and Seichim for over thirty-five years. In discussing the cards, Ramsey notes that the symbolic images are a tool that the reader can use to access their inner Spirit, and help develop their individual psychic abilities. As the reader opens up to his or her own psychic awareness, Sky Spirit will appear to them in dream state and help develop the inner meaning of each image. The Spirit of Truth cards act as a guide to revealing inner truths to the reader, as well as helping to guide them on their personal journey through their physical and emotional worlds. In giving the background for this deck, Ramsey explains that the were originally given to a shaman while he was in a deep trance, in the time before time was recorded. The shaman took these images, placed them on deer hide backed with wood, and used them to help foretell the future of his people. They are being given to us again at this time to assist us in living our lives in a better fashion. One --Bonnie Cehovet
It was with a hesitant sigh that I originally agreed to review yet another new divination card system. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised! This package of cards in a soft protective bag with an accompanying interpretation book are very nicely presented. But when I opened the book and started reading I was really stunned. Mr. Ramsey's reading layouts are innovative and easy to understand. No multiple memory references back to the book will be necessary to utilize these simple and logical card spreads, and they are quite transferrable to any other type of prophesy cards. I am very impressed and at times will use his tips and ideas within my own reading practice. And to top this, the next part of the book gives a lovely synopsis about how to begin to meditate on the cards. This again is a universally useful instruction for anyone starting out on the path of trying to understand or energize cards as a psychic tool. I also really appreciate the sensitivity within the text explaining the meanings of the various cards. The skill of predicting a loss while emphasizing the opportunities that are associated with that change. Modern day equivalents are also provided in the interpretations, such as e-mail being mentioned as a possible source of incoming communication. When I progressed to evaluating the images, yet another time I was astounded by the quality and relevance of the pictures. This "Native Peoples" deck does not require you to understand a long list of animal totems. The concepts displayed on each card are as relevant today as they would have been centuries ago. The men and women depicted in this deck, in my opinion, offer more precise delineations of human nature than what can be garnered from individual court cards in ordinary Tarot decks. Each picture has been lovingly illustrated in gentle earth and sky colour tones which suit the subject matter admirably. Obviously they have been created by a person who understands the need for a reading, for the use of the cards --Atham Z
The Spirit of Truth Native American Reading Cards are the creation of Maurice Ramsey, founder and director of the House of Miracles Holistic Healing Center and Reiki/Seichim [an Egyptian healing art] master teacher who has been active in spiritual healing for thirty-five years. Maurice s deck has 68 cards - 68 major arcana, as he puts it - that represent a way of life each person must follow while living on the earth plane . The Sky Spirit - an angelic energy - revealed the deck s images and their symbolic meaning to Maurice while he was asleep, in order for him to make the images available to all. His cards are intended to be used as a guide to reveal inner truth, develop the reader s psychic abilities, and direct them on their sacred journey. The cards seem to take on a life all of themselves and act as guides, and reveal to you the inner truth and direct you on your sacred journey through the physical and emotional of your world. Through Native American imagery and symbols, the cards depict the archetypal stages of life (such as Young Woman, Older Woman, A Mature Young Brave, Chief), objects and elements necessary to sustaining life (Pipe, Shield, Scroll, Deer Hide, Moccasins), native animals (Buffalo, Rattlesnake, Owl, Eagle, Butterfly, Fox, Turtle etc), emotional states (Teepee of Sorrows, the Bowl of Promises, the Broken Lance or the Pipe of Deception), activities (Occupation, Communication, Celebration) and concept representations (Target, where a fletched arrow is embedded in a tree, or Haste). A few card archetypes are analogous to Tarot cards in my eyes Death, Sun, Union (Lovers), Shaman (Hierophant), Disaster (very Tower-ish) illustrating the similarities in life between medieval Europeans and Native Americans. The Spirit of Truth Native American Reading Cards set has been self-published by Maurice in a limited edition of 1000 copies and is very much a labour of love. The set contains the shrink-wrapped cards (68 + 4 cards with keywords), a blue --Solandia
