In addition, we invite you to examine
The Spiral Journey Cards,
a deck of cards developed by Honora and Susan
to examine co-creation in relations.

The Spiral Journey Cards™ cards are designed to shed light on relationship issues. The relationships can be of any type—such as love, partnership, friendship, family, work, self, or Spirit/Source. We may at one time or another want to examine our relationships to ideas, physical objects, even the planet itself. The fact is, we are never not in relationship; everything we do while in physical embodiment is in some measure connected with one or many of the relationships in our lives, and how we approach these interactions determines their success. In all cases, the cards will offer insights and gifts the individual may use in working through relationship issues.
In brief, the set consists of 90 cards in divisions of six "suits" based on archetypes delineated by Jungian psychology and further subdivided by 15 gifts related to one’s mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual focus for the day. These 15 gifts are positioned on the cards according to the wisdom of the traditional Wheel of Life as it is used in many cultures. The notes that accompany the cards are designed to give those who want to work intuitively with the cards an overview of some ways in which they can be used and interpreted and some sample layouts for gaining insights. There are over 100 pages on the site for you to examine and enjoy.
