Understanding Reverse Oracle Cards

Reverse cards in oracle decks can have different meanings than upright cards. The creator of each deck determines the meanings of reverse cards. In some decks, reverse cards point out obstacles or provide protection by helping avoid mistakes. The author believes reverse cards in her decks provide extra guidance, love, and support from the universe rather than opposite meanings like in some tarot decks. Readers should view reverse cards positively and not avoid or ignore them.

  • LESSON 10: Working With Reverse Cards

Working With Reverse Cards

HI!
L

This mini-lesson is all about reverse cards.

When a card is reversed, it means it is upside-down. In many Oracle Card decks,


the reverse meaning is different from the upright meaning. The author of each deck
E

gets to choose what those cards mean and sets the intention. It’s a good thing to
read the guidebook in order to understand the creator’s intention.

If you have any experience with tarot cards, seeing an upside-down card may freak
S

you out. I know people who slip a reverse card back into the deck or turn it around.
There are even some who shuffle their deck in such a way that there are no reverse
cards- ever!

This superstition comes from tarot cards. Traditionally, reverse tarot cards mean
S

the opposite and speak to the shadowy nature of the upright meaning. So when
someone sees a reverse card they automatically think something bad was going to
happen or that it was telling them something unpleasant. This belief carried over to
Oracle Cards.
O

I can’t speak for all Oracle Cards, but I can speak for mine. My Oracle Cards are
not designed this way. In my decks, the reverse cards are not the opposite. They
are asking you to slow down, and protect you from making a boo-boo! They are
pointing out the obstacles you may not be seeing. Who doesn’t want that kind of
help?
N

In Oracle School, we refer to reverse cards as extra hugs from the Universe!

I think that the loving messages from reverse cards are so important and shouldn’t
be avoided, so in my later decks, I refer to them as protection and alignment
messages! When my Oracle Cards are in reverse, they are nothing to be afraid of!!
Rather you should feel so much love and support from the Universe. So when you
1 0

see a reverse card, get excited, I do!

If you have any of my physical decks, I invite you to look through the deck and
begin reading the reverse messages. This will help you better understand the
deck and you’ll be able to accept the messages as I intended - extra love, support,
guidance, and hugs from the Universe!

That’s all for now!
