🤫 I have to again be very careful with my verbiage here, because everytime I have written something about this, the reach of that post has tanked incredibly - besides the kind and so appreciated reposts and shares. I love you all for this ♥

We are cultivating, building and remembering our gods-given gift to be able to commune with nature directly.¨ Comment what comes up for you when you look the Violet in the eyes. What does she tell you about herself or you? Trust your ability to connect. Trust your intuition. #divination

I will have to remind you underhandedly from time to time that this event is going on as we speak, and to ask you for your support - either by participating yourself, sharing it with your friends and circles ♥ Any help is appreciated so much ♥

Divination is a dialogue - between you and the spirit asking your question (be it your higher self, your psyche, your deck, or ideally another spirit all together, your deitiy, nature, the universe, what have you).

Meet Fructifera, the deck that will show you, that you are a plant magic practitioner. You work with, depend on and enjoy the relationship with a myriad of plants already and maybe you didn't realize. For what is cooking and enjoying meals if not an act of healing, transformation and communion?

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

I want to show the graphical difference between the classic Venelestis decks and the new Lenormand deck I have created, the difference in the artistic liberty I have taken:)

I would like to adress a small, cute elephant in this room. Do you need to be a herbalist to work with plants on a spiritual or any level? The answer is a resolute NO. Unless you have a one in a billion lifestyle, you cooperate and work with plants, plant allies and spirits in your daily life.

I seem to have hit the spring part of my folder (or brain). Last year I made a delicious wild garlic pesto with olive oil, parmigiano and nuts, and I would love to gave some more :) I hope I will get to make that this year also.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 22/01/2026

If there is card in the Lenormand I am particularly proud on so many levels, of it's this one.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

As a small number of you may know, I went on a health and fitness journey last spring/summer. I meal prep, go to the gym 3-4 times a week and am really trying to build strenght and muscle to protect myself (and my back especially) from more injury.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 15/01/2026

Winter barely even started and I can't wait for spring already. Autumn used to be my favorite season (still is), but spring is the most wondrous season of the year, things change and grow every day ♥

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 13/01/2026

Maybe the Garden card from the upcoming Naturalis Lenormand will give you an idea how I dealt with man-made objects and what the changes to the traditional system look like :)

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 05/01/2026

So, let me talk a little about the Lenormand deck that I recently finished :) My working name for it is Venelestis Naturalis Lenormand, and in it I challenged myself to paint more complex animals, birds and mammals, as well as insects and plants and for the first time.

100

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 02/12/2025

so, I am going though my image portfolio for newest to olders and choosing plants to who you that way. Today it's Valerian, my stress and anxiety relieving sleepy-time friend :)

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 20/11/2025

Today and tomorrow are the last days when you can get a copy of the Venelestis decks and stickers with a discount AND with a delivery guarantee in time for the Christmas holidays :)

010

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 16/11/2025

I don't have a mental capacity to think about what to say, but maybe I can find it in my creative juices to keep sharing some of my illustrative and photographic art :)

Please, if you have a copy of any of the Venelestis oracle decks, please support my work by leaving them a review at my page ♥ I am immensely grateful for any feedback, experience, opinion and I know others, who are still considering would be too ♥ Thank you so much! www.venelestis.com

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 29/05/2025

It always makes me so happy to see the decks in their new homes:)

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 29/05/2025

If you know of anyone, who would like a plant-based deck like this, please share it with them, and of course, you can be as selfish as you like and just purchase a deck for yourself in secret:) Find them here: www.venelestis.com/category/all-pro…

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 20/05/2025

1/x Spring is here and exciting things to do are piling up :) This is the time of year, where I start feeling like the wintertime mental hibernation is finally going away and I not only have energy to do things, but also ideas start piling up and dialing my activity level up o 11.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

I have just published a video on the ytube with some tips and inspo for using your plant oracles. One thing I know now I forgot to mention is, that I firmly believe your guides your spirits and even your decks will give you cards and messages in a way YOU will be able to understand correctly.

101

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

I wanted to thank everyone for their support over the past 2 weeks :) Creating these decks is such a joy, as is sharing them with everyone :) As a glimpse to the future, I am now working on the late summer / early autumn release of a food / crop themed deck (think tomatoes, potatoes, grains etc.).

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

Last call, my dears ♥ No pressure - there will be extras, but the bundles will be going away:) Get yours here: www.venelestis.com/category/all-pro…

I have just uploaded a video under the guise of curating myself a deck, but if you want to hear some of my thoughts and silent laments too, check it out:) www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCQV...

I am also now hoping, that the algorithmic gods will smile upon me, because I am collecting ᴘʀᴇ-ᴏʀᴅᴇʀꜱ for the new oracle decks, and so far, I have had trouble reaching people :(

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 26/03/2025

Spring season is officially here and I am so here for it. My nature walks are back on the menu, as are my weekly trips to the botanical gardens to chase each miniscule lifestage of every plant living there. In the meanwhile, my own first seeds for this years garden are planted, too.

030

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

I am super excited about being able to offer you all the decks I have created so far. I myself can't wait for the opportunity later this week to curate myself a working deck of plants I already work with, want to work with or want to deepen my relationship with.

100

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 24/03/2025

The preorders are now officially open here: www.venelestis.com/category/all-products ♥ Each deck is a stand alone tool for divination, plant spirit work, deepening the understanding and relationship with the plants. All of the decks are designed to be freely combined and mixed among each other.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 23/03/2025

The sample prints of the upcoming oracle decks came just in time for the Equinox :) Today and over the weekend I will be producing picture after picture, flipthroughs on video, so that you can see each deck, and by Sunday evening hopefully, the listings will be ready for your enjoyment. #greenwitch

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 19/03/2025

In other news, the samples of the new prints are here and I am just too excited to shut up about it! :) #botanicalart #oracledeck

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 19/03/2025

I have just uploaded a video talking a little bit about something people call "tulpamancy" and going deeper into thoughtforms, servitors, "natural" spirits and created entities. Check it out: youtu.be/Ya2JuDeVOFI :) As always, I am excited for a deeper discussion in the comments ♥

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 17/03/2025

Talking to myself on camera reminded me, how much I enjoy guided meditation, and that LEARNING to perform rituals though reading them from grimoires, especially when those rituals require visualization is... not ideal for me. =

Sorbus aucuparia aka Rowan tree from the upcoming Venelestis Caelestis oracle deck. #plantoracle #botanicalillustration #botanicalart

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 07/03/2025

I am so impatient for my test prints of the new oracle decks to arrive. I want to look at them. I also want to make the most of the coming spring time to catch the opportunity to photograph the updated cards of Snowdrop and Crocus with the plants in bloom. #botanicalart

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

I have been recording myself talking about stuff... Not witchy stuff 100%, but stuff... Language, cleansing, protection, mental constructs and thoughtforms. I think having a witchy-only channel is great, but sometime, under all the witchy stuff, we forget that real life affects the magical one.

020

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

Tomorrow I will have new video up on my channel, talking a bit deeper about language and how "creating content" and "consuming content" are inherently very ugly, contraproductive terms, and how we should do our best to use different descriptors of what we do on the internet.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 02/03/2025

I am using my last spoon today to bring you this message :D If you are interested, like I am, in exploring living (!) Slavic spring traditions across Europe, I had the honor to be a part of an amazing panel discussing it :) The video is live since yesterday here: youtu.be/cKWtC4cKKbo

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 26/02/2025

The #Occultea video is up:) You can click through via the crossroads in bio :) With the few days of space since I recorded that video, I had the opportunity to digest a lot of things that seemed to come out out of nowhere and I gave myself a lot of food for thought as well.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 24/02/2025

Yesterday, I had a blast recording my first Youtube video since 2021. In a burst of creative and productive energy, I not only recorded, but edited, uploaded and readied it to go up on Wednesday :)

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

There are not many plants that I have memories of from early childhood, but Deadly nightshade is surely one of them. In my young, girl scout mind she was an ever present danger and temptress, lurking in the woods to seduce young children with her blueberry-like fruit.

Venelestis @venelestis.bsky.social · 17/02/2025

Snowdrop season is here :) Reminds me, I should buy a bouquet of it to press and keep. One of the personal projects I have envisioned for myself this year is creating my own herbarium/pressed flower scrapbook :) The snowdrop card is part of Venelestis Caelestis oracle deck. #botanicalart

Fly agaric holds a special place in my heart and in my herbal cabinet :) Here is a gallery of amanita muscaria including the original card before the reimagining :) The illustration is a part of the reimagined Venelestis Caelestis oracle deck :) #sciart #mushrooms #naturalart
