This Week's Oracle Card Reading Roundup: Oh Dear, BBC, PLUS download some quick oracle card meanings cheatsheets!
Week ending Sunday 16th November 2025
Not a great many readings this week, for which I apologise; had some unexpected family stuff to attend to. The readings we did do, though, with the Bohemian Cards and the Kipper cards, turned out to be quite juicy in the end.
It’s been a bit of a “thing" going on here in the UK, with the BBC Trump-editing saga (they have a apologised but Trump is still saying he will sue) , with, on the one hand, its critics (and Donald) out for blood, and on the other, the Beeb circling the wagons as usual which I don’t think is necessarily going to help. I don’t think a shakeup is a bad thing, though personally, I’d hate to lose our national broadcaster. They absolutely need to do a lot better than this though. And it feeds into the much wider energy of “trusted” (or formerly trusted) institutions crumbling and really needing to start taking a good look at themselves as we go into the future.
So below, we have a recap.
We looked first with Piatnik’s Bohemian cards at what the BBC needs to do to restore trust, and then took a more in-depth multi layer reading with not just one but TWO Kipper decks on crumbling institutions in general (but seemed to mainly relate to the BBC).
For those not planning to sign up to a paid subscription on the newsletter here (where you can get access to a TON of oracle card info such as detailed card meanings for multiple decks as part of your subscription) but still with a hankering for card meanings lists to refer to, you might want to check out what I’ve got for you here .
While I can’t give you freebies, I’m afraid, these two printable 2pp Quick cheat sheets on the decks we used this week will give you the easy peasy at-a-glance stuff (although it doesn’t include any in-depth info about directionals etc, which you might be more interested in for the Kipper). But these are the nuts and bolts.
Meanwhile, what of the readings themselves now that the week is over? Let’s take a look at them again.
We used the traditional “Gypsy’s Answer”, a classic for the Bohemian deck, as well as a doubled up 9-Card spread for the Kipper, which is an interesting technique to try.
Subscribers can remind themselves of how to lay and read the Gypsy’s Answer on the Daily Oracle website here:
So This Week’s Readings: How Did They Do?
Yep, it was all about the Beeb… but there are lessons there for other institutions, I think. A reminder of how the first spread looked.
