I use several decks depending on the subject of the question posed. Some decks are best suited to specific situations. I use my intuition when choosing which deck to read from.
oracle /ˈôrək(ə)l/noun
the word comes from the Latin verb ōrāre, “to speak” and properly refers to the priest or priestess uttering the prediction. In extended use, oracle may also refer to the site of the oracle, and to the oracular utterances themselves, called khrēsmē ‘tresme’ (χρησμοί) in Greek.

I choose from several decks to compliment the Tarot deck along with the question posed. These cards relate to unconscious subject within the question asked.
rune, runic letter (noun)
any character from an ancient Germanic alphabet used in Scandinavia from the 3rd century to the Middle Ages. “each rune had its own magical significance”.

The original meaning of the word rune is something hidden or secret.
“an air of the mystery will always surround the origins and sacred use of the runes. The word itself means a “secret” or “mystery” and is associated with things whispered.” …Ralph H. Blum
Rune can be used singular or with a spread. I randomly draw the rune stone that comes forward from a grouping and apply it’s meaning to the question posed.
crystal (krĭs′təl) (noun)
a homogenous solid formed by a repeating, three-dimensional pattern of atoms, ions, or molecules and having fixed distances between constituent parts.

Crystals are made up of natural elements deep inside the earth, and each one has unique properties and they are formed over thousands of years. It is also believed that everything contains a form of energy each crystal has its own vibrational signature.
“In a modern age of science, however, it may be difficult to understand how a rock can bring about any type of healing. The answer lies in the vibrational energies found within crystals and how they affect the energy fields around them, including the human energy field.”… Karen Frazier, Crystals for Beginners
I use crystals to basically up level the energy desired and at times to cleanse but also to aid in sharing and increasing vibrations where needed. The use of crystals and gems compliments a reading and can increase the human consciousness and understanding.
