5.0 out of 5 stars Casting Lots, July 9, 2001

By A Customer

I can't say enough good things about this book and card set. It most certainly will change lives. The guidance is always profound, you may find the truth hard to swallow at times but God doesn't pull any punches. I highly recommend this to anyone seeking, asking and not sure. Allow yourself enough time to ponder and meditate on readings and you will find your answer is surely there. I wish I could give it 10 stars

5.0 out of 5 stars An effective way to use the guidance of the Holy Spirit, January 25, 1999

By A Customer

For many of us, the stories of Jesus are sacred. You may have had the experience of looking into the Bible for inspiration, perhaps by opening it to a random page and reading the message as to how it applies to your life. Casting LOTS gives you another effective way to find inspiration through the stories of Christ. It consists of a book and 78 cards, 60 LOTS and 18 SIGNS. The LOTS tell of Christ's journey and the SIGNS tell of miracles and healings. By choosing a card, you areessentially doing the same thing as opening the Bible at random. Each card is a story in Christ's journey. The book tells the story and gives the scriptual references, and a list of quewtions to help you find the meaning of the story for your own life. For example, the Crucifixion story tells of Christ's agony on the cross. At one time, your message from this story might be related to personal sufferings or a feeling of abandonment ("Hast thou forsaken me?"). At another, it might be a message to forgive others (Father, forgive them.") The keyword for the Crucifixion card is "Letting Go." What do you need to let go of? Or forgive? Activities for spiritual growth accompany each story. This inspired book and oracle lovingly reacquaint you with the deeper meanings of the Christ story and develop your ability to call on the Holy Spirit for guidance. The cards can be used in spreads for further life readings (described in the book).

4.0 out of 5 stars Guidance and Hope, November 13, 2006

By	Courtney H. Smith "Angel" (everywhere) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I think this is a fabulous item. I am a born again Christian, I was Pagan for a few years until I found the Lord again and got saved but it always had been told to me that Tarot is bad and I should'nt get it read. When I was a Pagan I always read my cards with amazing accuracy, but more for direction, so I can look at my past was and the path Im heading on, to better prepare for and stay focused on the future. I think these cards are great becuase they use biblical teachings to give us guidance on our lives. The bible takes on a whole new understanding and meaning to me and I love looking at the bible versus and compairing them to my life and findng "hidden meanings" in the messages. Sometimes I wonder if this is truly Tarot hidden in biblical cards, but I guess the only way to make this bad is if I was reading these to forcast my future instead of to gain better understanding as to what is going om in my life. I love the questions and suggestions she has at the end of every lot or sign. The only reason why I did not give this 5 stars was becuase she wrote in the introduction "I encourage you to treat the life of Jesus as myth, which is not to say that His life didn't happen as recorded. But, rather than viewing it as history, something that occured almost two thousand years ago, see it as a metaphor for you own life today." Casting LOTS, pg.1 I understand her point behind this and wanting us to see these as metaphors, but I dont think treating Jesus' life as a myth helps or harms that. I look at these as metaphors for my life but knowing that this isnt a myth and I think it draws me closer to the Holy Spirit when you read this knowing, Jesus went through this two thousand years ago and how what He went through and what He did can help us now. That one sentence could have been left out, otherwise this was a great book and great cards :)
