Discover Your True North With Animae: The Source
A deck-of-values designed to help you reconnect with yourself — your values, your purpose, your path.

Or felt stuck making decisions about relationships, career, community, or creativity because you weren’t sure what your deepest values are?

For Whom This Deck Is Designed
Animae is for anyone seeking to live with deeper awareness — whether you are:
A therapist, coach, counselor or facilitator, wanting a tool to help clients explore values
A teacher, group leader, or parent, looking for ways to build connection, empathy, and meaning in community settings
An individual on a path of personal growth, creativity, or spiritual exploration — desiring clarity, purpose, and inner grounding
If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your true priorities, or overwhelmed by life’s many demands — this deck can help you rediscover what matters, and choose consciously from there.
How It Works & Why It’s Different
Each card is rooted in symbolic art — hand-crafted via traditional printmaking (collagraphy + oil-ink + printmaking paper), giving each value a unique visual and tactile presence.
Use intuition — reflect on how each symbol, color, and texture resonates with you. Let the abstract art itself activate memory, emotion, or insight.
There is no one “correct” way — sometimes draw one card to guide your day, sometimes draw many to explore internal conflicts or emerging desires.
This deck is not a “how-to” formula — it’s a journey of inner wisdom and self-discovery.

The Art Behind the Deck
Each image began as an intuited design and hand-cut collagraph plate, inked with oil-based inks and printed on printmaking paper using an etching press before being digitized.
The textures, symbols, and abstract forms were intentionally crafted to evoke the subconscious — allowing each viewer to project their own meaning and insight.
The artwork itself becomes part of the intuition process:
What does this shape evoke in you?
What memory does this texture stir?
What feeling arises before the mind steps in?
