Celebrating Success

"The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn" - Ralph Waldo Emerson

We made it!
Joyful songs of gratitude and celebration.

Thanks to you and 114 other backers, in the final hours of our five week campaign we managed to reach our minimum goal to cover base printing and shipping costs for the deck to be made.

Here is the presentation about the deck creation process called 'Stone Circles and Visionary Art' on the Vision Train Station Youtube

We will put together another presentation about the deck itself to deliver live and share as a recording in the next month or two. 

Without each and every one of you winging us towards our goal, creating momentum, and inspiring others to participate knowing, it may very well not have happened at all. Thank you, thank you, thank you. A chorus of heartful gratitude. 

Our global creative community successfully came together to crowdfund the Capstone Edition of the Galactic Trading Cards featuring 111+ artists from 24 countries on 6 continents.

Art given freely by artists, design done freely by designers and I entirely volunteer to co-create this global visionary arts initiative.

A number of super generous artists joined our crowdfunder to sponsor cards that will be seamlessly integrated into the deck and they will get 10 decks to gift or sell to recover their investment. We are still open to three more artist sponsoring cards so we can reach our stretch goal of adding foil elements to the box and 8 of the cards to make it even more beautiful and world class.

Remaining from our hand-numbered limited-edition print of 1000 decks, the final 202 decks are available on our pre-order shop 
https://galactic-trading-cards-capstone-edition.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

We will keep you updated as we complete production and go to print on this miraculous artifact. 

Art featured here is ‘Om Gam Ganpataye Namah’ from Vesna Leibowitz from the final Capstone Edition of the Galactic Trading Card Oracle Deck.

Celestial Fleet Alliance 

Awesome gratitude to all of you for helping bring this dream into reality. We have three days left in the campaign are sounding the creative call in all directions. 

Here is a new video we recorded in the Elphinstone Rainforest and put at the top of the story for the campaign. 

Whether we reach our goal to manifest this deck or not, we are so deeply grateful to all of you for being a stand for this global vision. 

The 110 artists involved are also thankful for the opportunity to have their art shared with more people from our beloved planetary community. Follow them on social media and support their work. 

As a jewel in the final days of the campaign we are joyed to feature this painting so generously offered to the Galactic Trading Cards by one of our favourite artists: Geenss Archenti from Peru

A chorus of gratitude to those who have shared the campaign with friends or on social media, and to those who have increased their pledges to help us achieve the miraculous and manifest this deck!

Deeply aligned with this project which was created at stone circles and sacred sites in five of the Celtic Realms : Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Cornwall and England, we share the painting 'Of Wolves and Wild Roses' by Radka SoulArt of the Cayman Islands which will be featured in the Capstone Edition of the Galactic Trading Cards.

Here are a few of the artworks from the upcoming deck that have had the biggest response on our instagram @galactictradingcardoracle
