About
IT ALL STARTED WHEN…
Julie Pepper was inspired by the ancestors and the ones to come.
Fountain Of Trabazon is a oracle deck comprised of 56 images Julie complied over 20 years of painting. The cards were aligned with positive affirmations from Julie's studies in herbalism and Raja - Hatha Yoga Therapies.
"The Deck's characters have elaborate patterned garb - divine and powerful, thoughtful, always contemplative , always free. Most have a white background, the only content being the space and energy created inside them. Each cards positive affirmation is available in a booklet that comes with the deck!"
