The Oracle Dice sets come with a guidebook to walk you through how to read the dice, and the reading cloth has 2 grids (one on each side) that you will learn to read on. When asked a question, you will choose dice that feel pertinent to the reading, anywhere from 4 to all 22, and shake them in your hand, then cast them down on the reading grid as centrally as possible. Where dice land on the grid, what face of the dice is facing upward, what shapes groups of dice make, and how they are oriented can all lend meaning to the dice. You will typically start in the center and read what the dice there mean, then start clockwise around the mat to address what each element in this reading is sharing. In this way, they are similar to both charm casting and tarot. Consider the dice to be the cards or charms, and the grid to be like the tarot spread.

The Oracle Dice, like a Tarot Deck, does what you use it to do. For some people, they have complete faith that their cards connect to the angels, spirits, or perhaps even demons, and those are what give them information about the future. Some believe it is personal magical talent that makes the cards, or dice, work. But for those who do not believe in any of that, I share a simple answer: These are a psychological tool. I will use these random shapes and symbols to form a story that I will tell you. You will then connect it to things you're already dealing with or thinking about in your life, either challenging your narrative or ideas, or reaffirming them. In any case, the tool has helped you think broader than you had before or accept the final push you needed to take action you were hesitating to take. If you use them in your spiritual practices, or in witchcraft, they are now a sacred tool. If you do not, they are a narrative tool. They are what you make of them, no more, no less.

Oracle Dice are predominately meant to be a tool to build stories or narratives, typically with the intention of divination or helping to guide someone on their life path. This means you or another might have a question that they need answered before taking action in their life, and you would use the dice to do a reading to help find the answer. They may also be used to direct story scenes in a book, in a TTRPG or game, or to help you come up with a unique trait for a character in any of those things. The dice are a generative engine that can push along story.

Yes! The dice found in those deluxe editions are featured in the Key Keepers Dice Set as well. They have meaning in their home sets as well. The Housewives Dice can be used in conjunction with the Hot Housewives Tarot to empower those readings. For this reason, you can get both the Key Keepers Dice Set and the Hot Housewives Tarot Deluxe Edition and have two sets of the Housewives Dice for different purposes. Keep one with your other dice, and one with the tarot deck, and use them separately. This is the same for the Black Lantern Dice, which are found in the Key Keepers dice set and in the Misery Tarot's Deluxe Edition. Alternatively, if you're getting the Hot Housewives Tarot's Deluxe Edition, you can choose to grab just the pieces of the Key Keepers dice set you don't have, skipping a duplicate of the Housewives Dice. Please note that you can ONLY get the Key Keepers dice set piecemeal during this campaign. After this crowdfunding campaign, we will not offer the dice sets in pieces like this.

Yes, they definitely will if they go into effect. At the moment, books aren't affected, so our guidebooks won't be targeted, but the boxes that contain them are a more gray area, and then our cloths and dice certainly would be hit in most cases. This is a complex situation, but the plan at the moment is to not change our product price, as when the tariffs end or are walked back, (or annoyingly could increase) that is not the part that we would change. We will plan to charge tariffs similar to VAT or other taxes and fees for shipping-- as part of the shipping price. Please keep in mind Tariffs are not based on the item's market value, it's based on the manufacturing price. So if we offer an item for $10 to customers, but it costs $2 to manufacture, the tariff percentage is based on the $2, not the $10. It's also worth noting that Tariffs change all the time, and could well go down before we manufacture and ship, or perhaps could entirely go away in ways that it affects our industry.

We are looking to potentially ship yet this year in October. Shipping will come in phases, with people who backed just the Hot Housewives or Misery Tarots getting their items first before October, then the dice will go out around October and into November. We will make regular monthly updates letting you know the timeline and any adjustments to it! So please stay tuned to those for all relevant information.

Not yet. You have not paid Shipping, VAT, Taxes, or anything related to the package coming to you until we announce we are adding it to your orders in the pledgemanager. So please stay tuned to the Updates as they come. Note, you will not receive your items until you've paid for your shipping.

A few reasons: 1) Prices of things have gone up to manufacture. 2) This is more in line with a proper tarot deck or oracle deck, with more items in the package and a broader pallet of 'cards'. A tarot has 78 cards, each of these dice sets has 138 faces. 3) The 2nd edition made very little money after paying manufacturing, platform fees, and artist payments. Simply put the 1st and 2nd editions were deeply underpriced. To pay Seven a living wage (hopefully 5 digits) for doing this full time, we did the math and this is the proper cost the items should be.

The Oracle Dice have always been a personal creation. I have since become aware of other divination dice of different flavors, but they do not seem similar to mine to me. I began at the start with what the gist of each tarot card was, and wondered if I should base the dice around that. But simply put, the dice don't work the same way. Once a die has come up with one face, none of the others can come up. Additionally, as dice land together, or in different parts of the grid, they can change meaning in unique ways. For me, these dice are an intuitive tool that makes use of our understandings of symbols and archetypes. They are not from another piece of media, or based on a specific divination system.
