The TOTEM Flower Essence Deck is now available for sale on Amazon and Etsy.
I know. I kind of can’t believe it either. I mean, what does one even do with their life if they’re not slowly dying of intense anticipation while refreshing internet browsers to see if pallets of decks are being delivered to an Amazon fulfillment center?
I guess I’ll find out;)
Review Raffle
If you are compelled to order one of these 60-page decks— with our signature booklet, detailing the card meanings and interpretations— please remember that our Review Raffle is still very much underway! If you feel compelled to share your experience with the TOTEM Flower Essence Deck, just shoot me a screenshot of your review to rachel@totemreadings.com to enter (and don’t forget to share your full name and snail mail address so that I can send you a thank you and/or grand prize!).

You are entered to win as many times as you enter. And the grand prize— a TOTEM Flower Essence Deck and accompanying reading with me— is pretty f*cking great.
Just saying.
Upcoming Events
And, if you want to dig deeper into the deck and learn some inside baseball from its creator, we’ve designed a series of summer events (both in-person and virtual) that are featured on our website HERE.
If you’re planning on joining us for the Summer Solstice-themed garden party/ deck launch at The Herb Bar, please note: all attendees will receive one copy of the deck and a LOT of other goodies!
We’ll also be continuing to post previews for paid subscribers here on Substack, diving into the TOTEM Flower Essence Deck much the way we did (and continue to do) with the TOTEM Tarot Deck. We’ve also planned a few Instagram Lives to highlight the deck and pull cards for the upcoming week, so make sure you’re following us on Instagram HERE to get the notifications to join!
If you want a more customized, 1:1 experience, you can book a TOTEM Flower Essence Consultation with me HERE anytime. I leverage the TOTEM Flower Essence Deck in this session to access the intuitive, energetic data in addition to chatting about herbalism— and our flower essences— in pragmatic detail.
If you build it…
Emma Cook (the artist) and I made The TOTEM Flower Essence Deck with the intention of crafting a new kind of spiritual tool for a new era in human evolution.
Nothing like this deck exists in the marketplace and, while that’s scary, it’s also a tremendous opportunity to be at the ground floor for a renaissance in herbalism, organic gardening, plant medicine, and hedge + kitchen witchery!
And I think the deck is here to do this just in time.
For years, many of us have felt a shift in the power, efficacy and crucial spiritual importance of plant consciousness. I think this shift, manifesting as plant medicine ceremonies and the embrace of herbalism more broadly, is the result of a nature spirit resurgence— one that just might offer us mere mortals a major cheat code for spiritual (and personal) development and wellbeing.
Flowers are medicine. Herbs are medicine. Trees are medicine.
We are surrounded by living things seeking ways to support our healing and awakening— all we need to do is listen.
This deck is one way to hear that message.
Thank you all so much for your support as we went through the gauntlet of creating, printing and publishing this labor of love— it’s your interest and excitement that keeps us going, even when we feel like walking away (as anyone that’s ever made a deck knows all too well!).
I can’t wait to see your feedback and hear your stories as you use the TOTEM Flower Essence Deck in your personal and professional spiritual practices!

My deck arrived today and the artwork is absolutely gorgeous! I can't wait to dig into the accompanying book. Congratulations to you and Emma!
YES!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I get the feel of "what am I supposed to do now?!" after big big creative pushes too. It's an odd feeling, but yes, echoing other comments - enjoy the exhale, give yourself a big hearty pat on the back and celebrate. Cheers!
