How To Make a Tarot, Altar or Oracle Card Divination Cloth Mat for Spiritual Readings

10th December 2020 by Georgie xoxo Leave a Comment

Today, I’m bringing you a beautiful, easy tutorial for how to make your own altar, Tarot, Oracle Card and divination cloth mats for your spiritual readings and rituals.

As many of you know, I am totally besotted with Oracle cards, and they are one of the richest sources of seeking everyday whimsy for me.

These gorgeous Oracle, Tarot and Altar cloths would make the most exquisite gift for your loved ones this Christmas, and of course for yourself!

What is a Divination Cloth?

Firstly, what is a divination cloth and how can they be used alongside Oracle and Tarot card readings?

A divination cloth is truly whatever feels most sacred to you. You can use it to display sacred items in your home, on your altar, for your card readings, or even as a wall hanging. 

They are truly gorgeous to help you give readings of love for yourself and for others, and overall just enhance this sacred moment you are taking for your reading.

Ultimately, for me, taking time for a daily Oracle reading is an important ritual in my day, so to have a dedicated cloth to perform your reading on makes it even more special.

How To Make a Tarot, Altar or Oracle Card Cloth Mat Tutorial for Spiritual Readings

How to Make an Altar, Tarot and Oracle Card Cloth for Spiritual Readings

Let’s get started with how to make your very own divination cloth that you can customise for your exact needs.

If you’re looking for some inspiration before you start, typically divination cloths are made from luxurious materials such as velvet, satins and silks.

In my tutorial, I have used a gorgeous enchanted fairytale fabric and matched it with a silky baby pink. To finish, I’ve added a glittery ribbon.

What colours or patterns resonate for you? You can think about what fabric feels particularly gorgeous for you.

Another beautiful touch is to research the spiritual significance of certain colours. All of this will truly add that extra magical dimension to your sacred piece.

For more inspiration, you can see what other fabrics I have used below. What stands out for you?

How To Use an Altar, Tarot or Oracle Card Cloth

Hopefully you now have your finished divination cloth and you’re ready to use it! If not, enjoy finding inspiration for when your cloth is ready to be used.

And now it is made, or nearly finished, how do you use a divination cloth?

Well, there are many ways to do so as explained above. From your altar, to a wall hanging, to so much more.

In terms of readings, using Tarot or Oracle decks, this can be a perfect use for your divination cloth, that’s beautiful to utilise for yourself and for others.

However whatever the aim, you can be sure that you will find and illuminate clarity and wisdom directly related to yourself/recipient’s unique energy and personal circumstances from using this handmade cloth.

For a reading, you can take advantage of the space of a divination cloth by creating grids for even 7 cards or more. Alternatively, you can stick to the typical 3 card spread reading normally broken into the past, present and future.

I also adore to use crystals and other spiritual items on my cloth such as essential oils and my pendulum. What feels good, and needed, for you to add to your ritual?

In case you’re wondering what cards I am using, this is the gorgeous Oracle Cards Inspirational Wisdom From The Angels And Fairies deck I will be reviewing very soon!

I hope you enjoyed learning how to make this divination cloth that is perfect for altar, Tarot, oracle cards and so much more!

In combination with my Oracle Card deck of choice, this truly lifts and illuminates my spiritual readings in particular. I hope it can do the same for you!

How many of you use and love divination cloths, tarot and oracle decks? If so, what deck is your favourite? I’d love for you to share your favourites in the comment below!

As for my favourite decks, you can find some of the Oracle Cards that I have reviewed to date in the link below.

Dear younger Georgie, These are the things I woul Dear younger Georgie,

These are the things I would have wanted you to know this time last year as you celebrate being another year older. 

You were right to choose the word abundance for this year. Although, I don’t think you truly understood the true meaning at the time. Now you’ve learnt that true abundance, magic and the blessings of the universe are within you and around you always. 

You’ll find yourself on an alchemical process of turning dis-ease to simple ‘ease’. The flowing and harmony of life. You’ll finally learn how to move through emotions rather than allowing them to calcify in your bones. You’ll utilise a sense of watery spaciousness. Like the ebb and flow of the gentle tides you watched with awe in Saadiyat Island and the Caribbean. You will become that water. All your sacred energy will be charged by these waters.

You will sink into the golden nectar of your internal world and it will keep you centred and grounded without the pressure from the external world. And there you will finally feel at peace.

Ultimately, life is going to ask you to be constantly courageous. A chance for you to be really brave again and again. So know that no matter what you choose in life you will be met with depth. But to be alive is to be connected. Look only to your own divinity. A beautiful vehicle that carries your soul through life.

Holding you more closely than I ever have before and I promise to look after you from now on. A celebration of a year around the sun means that life gives you another gift. So, keep going small whimsical one. It must be so nourishing to feel the current of life within you again. 

Love, older Georgie xoxo

One of my bucket list goals in life was to see fla One of my bucket list goals in life was to see flamingos in the wild and I got my dream this January 😭🦩.
.
Bonaire is abundant with their love for flamingos. Their airport is even pink and called 'Flamingo Airport'!
.
The Pekelmeer Flamingo Sanctuary is one of only 4 areas in the world where Flamingos breed, making Bonaire the ultimate spot for those who love flamingos as much as me.
.
Tourists are not allowed in the sanctuary, but the birds can be watched with binoculars from the road or nearby Pink Beach. The Caribbean flamingo is also the most colourful of all species of flamingos, due mainly to the red carotenes in their diet.
.
Before I go, some flamingo facts no one asked for but I need to share (🙈): A group of flamingos is called a ‘flamboyance’. Both flamingo and flamboyance come from words referring ‘to fire’. And Flamingo comes from the Spanish and Portuguese flamengo, literally, ‘flame-coloured.’ And finally, Flamboyance comes from French, meaning ‘to flame’ or ‘flair.’ 🦩🇧🇶💓

If you have been to Bonaire, you might have spotte If you have been to Bonaire, you might have spotted the distinctive line of white salt pyramids at the southeastern end of the island. Each pyramid, roughly 50 feet high, contains approximately 10,000 metric tons of 99.6% pure salt. Within these huge mounds of crystals is the Flamingo Reserve that is protected. Bonaire is known for its love of nature and I have so many more images to illustrate this coming soon. And yes I did spot some flamingos in the wild and it was indescribably magical 😭💓🦩🇧🇶

Bon Bini to Bonaire! Along with Aruba and Curaça Bon Bini to Bonaire! Along with Aruba and Curaçao, it is 1 of 3 islands that make up the ABC Islands in the Lesser Antilles.
.
The islands are all part of the Kingdom of Netherlands and have a distinct Dutch flair compared to other islands on the Caribbean map.
.

Among its 18,000 inhabitants, Bonaire counts no less than 4 languages! Whilst Dutch is the official language, it is the colourful Papiamentu that the locals commonly use, along with glimpses of English and Spanish, as well as other languages associated with the many religious faiths found on the island.
.
With colourful architecture, and unique culture that awaits you on each of the ABC islands, it’s a trip that you’ll forever cherish. And honestly, I’m VERY seriously thinking about moving into these colourful flamingo buildings🦩😍❤️
.
Much more from Bonaire soon. Has anyone been? Or to the Caribbean? I’d love to know! 🇧🇶

The history of the Caribbean is rich with adventur The history of the Caribbean is rich with adventurous tales, blended cultures, and natural diversity.
.
The most important thing I wanted from this trip back in January was to connect deeply to this history and the beautiful souls who call the Caribbean home.
.
From meeting artists in Barbados, to the honour of meeting Carib-Indians in a community in Dominica, I feel so thankful for the blessings of this trip that has enriched an even more powerful exploration of what it means to connect through our shared compassion and humanity.
.
I’ll be posting them on my blog so I’m not restricted by words and images and post when they are up (I can’t believe it’s 10 years since I opened this space!).
.
But before I go, I was really touched by an interview I watched recently between @brenebrown and @chasejarvis. In it, Brene calls for ‘a minstry of presence’ with people and how this and empathy are the most powerful gifts we can bring to the world.
.
I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this because I truly believe that wherever we are today, even just as we move through this online landscape, and through our own communities in the safest way we can now, that arriving with our full presence and the deepest empathy we can bring is a form of medicine that is indescribably powerful.
.
I met so many people on my travels who just long to tell their stories and talk to us. I feel so privileged to share these stories and that I have your presence with me as I share them 🇦🇬☀️

I was just looking through some of my photos from I was just looking through some of my photos from the Caribbean and this capture of a Rainbow in Bonaire really spoke to my heart and soul.
. 
Rainbows are one of the most potent reminders of hope as they often appear when the sun follows a heavy rainfall. They serve to remind us that there is hope and light to follow even after dark times.
.
Now, more than ever, we need hope. For if we are to sink into the uncertainty the world is facing right now, the most natural thing to do is to succumb to hopelessness and despair.
.
But in the midst of this suffering and in times like this I know it can seem impossible to find hope.
.
But ultimately hope helps us process the uncertain times to blossom into something beautiful. Even if it’s fleeting in our imagination.
.
This year, the arrival of spring has reminded me of the powerful message of hope that the sacred rhythm of the universe brings.
.
For the light begins to shine brightly once more, animals emerge once again, and plants and flowers ‘spring’ into bloom.
.
And just as the bulbs of blooms come to break through the earth searching for the sunlight, I hope so dearly that this message of hope will give you a glowing golden light at the end of the tunnel to lean into.
.
Because I am always determined, even when it feels impossible, to remain focused and hopeful on my quest to find the gold at the end of all 🌈s 💖🌈💖🌈💖🌈 (from Whimsy Wednesday April 2020)

The Orthodox Alexander Nevsky Cathedral with its g The Orthodox Alexander Nevsky Cathedral with its golden domes dominates the city and is a symbol of Sofia. Started in 1882 it was finished in 1912 and named after the patron saint of the Russian Tsar Alexander II who was in power at the time.
.
The peal of its 12 bells can be heard from 30km away and it is considered to be the largest operating Eastern Orthodox church in the Balkans. Inside you can see wonderful icons, huge chandeliers and the royal thrones.

I thought this stunning spot was the perfect place to end my adventures in Sofia and now I’m going to get back to savouring every single second I have left here in the UAE 🇧🇬❤️
