我在洛杉磯長大，從小接觸藝術(shù)。我從小時候就開始畫畫并收集各種各樣的物品、小盒子和小寶物。長大后，我開始學(xué)習(xí)藝術(shù)，學(xué)習(xí)如何在圖片中表達(dá)自己的聲音(后來又通過文字表達(dá))。

2013年，我創(chuàng)建了Light Visions。這是我的第一副塔羅牌，一年后，它啟發(fā)了Prisma Visions。棱鏡幻象的成功是一個驚喜，但它重申了我與這些神秘對象的鏈接。

2015年，我迷戀上了前世的想法，我的靈性也慢慢開始展開。我想做一些關(guān)于靈魂之旅的藝術(shù)，以及我們每天掙扎的宇宙糾葛。我花了幾年時間重新學(xué)習(xí)自己。

2019年，我創(chuàng)建了第一個綠色符合牌組——一個雷諾曼牌組，它將在幾年后激發(fā)這一系列牌組的其余部分。那時候，我并不知道綠色雕文會擴(kuò)展成四個占卜牌的集合，也是我迄今為止最大的項目。

2020年，我發(fā)布了宇宙視覺（cosma visions）神諭卡和geoman tic visions。這是我對傳統(tǒng)塔羅牌和雷諾曼系統(tǒng)最大的背離，這副牌的一夜成名教會了我，我們可以把自己的世界變成我們想要的樣子，對集體更有利。

I grew up in Los Angeles and was raised on art. I began drawing at a young age and collected various objects, boxes, and small treasures. When I got older, I studied art and learned how to speak my voice in pictures (and then later through words).

In 2013, I created Light Visions. It was my first Tarot deck and a year later, it inspired Prisma Visions. The success of Prisma Visions was a surprise, but it reaffirmed my connection to these magical objects.

In 2015, I became infatuated with the idea of past lives, and my spirituality slowly started to unfold. I wanted to make art about the journey of the soul and the cosmic entanglement that we struggle with each day. I spent a few years relearning myself.

In 2019, I created the first Green Glyphs deck--a Lenormand deck that would inspire the rest of this series of decks years later. Back then, I had no idea that Green Glyphs would expand into a collection of four divination decks and my largest project to date.

In 2020, I released the Cosma Visions Oracle and Geomantic Visions. It was my biggest deviation from traditional systems of Tarot and Lenormand, and the overnight success of this deck taught me that we can make our own world into what we want it to be, something better for the collective whole.

所以，我開始制作綠色符合集:一套四套牌，涵蓋了占卜的四個角:塔羅牌，雷諾曼，如尼石和神諭卡。我制作綠色符合集的目的是處理各種各樣的占卜工具，并將它們統(tǒng)一起來，從而提供一組可以混合在一起的卡片，以擴(kuò)展我們對與自己和我們旅行的道路相聯(lián)系的意義的理解。

你會在所有四本指南中找到這條注釋，但從這里開始，所有的信息都是不同的。每本書都有一頁專門介紹牌組中的每張牌。在卡牌含義之后是關(guān)于在實踐中使用套牌以及將套牌與其他綠色雕文套牌一起使用的部分。

So, I set out to make the Green Glyphs Collection: a set of four decks that cover four corners of divination: Tarot, Lenormand, Runes and Oracle. My intention for the Green Glyphs Collection was to tackle a wide range of divination tools and to unify them, in turn offering a collection of cards that can be mixed together to expand our understanding of what it means to feel connected to ourselves and the paths we travel.

You'll find this note in all four of the guidebooks, but from here on out, all the information varies. Each book has a page dedicated to each card in the deck. Following the card meanings is a section on using the deck in practice as well as using the deck with other Green Glyphs decks.

綠色符號，嗯，對我來說，是一種冥想。它是一本魔法占卜形式的選集。它是真實的，但簡單而輕松。它不會高聲尖叫，也不會帶你去無光之地。這是歡迎，是熟悉的。它是你還不知道你依賴的安靜的負(fù)空間。它會在你的日常生活中出現(xiàn)。一只黃蝴蝶。放了一天的咖啡。太陽。月亮。你。我。都在那里，像老朋友一樣編織成綠色字符。

綠色符合是我試圖彌合差距的嘗試，創(chuàng)作不是那么神秘的作品，更像是功能型藝術(shù)作品，展現(xiàn)出四種不同的占卜方式。

當(dāng)我在2019年創(chuàng)建綠色符號時，我從未想過它會發(fā)展成今天的系列。我做雷諾曼牌組時感覺很輕松。它給人的感覺是平靜和治愈，就像呼吸了一股新鮮空氣。我需要它。然后我做了Cosma Visions，一個神諭卡牌，花了我近兩年的時間和一場疫情才完成。這讓我付出了很多。它深沉、黑暗、美麗。

我想再次感受到綠色符號的輕盈，所以我開始制作一副同樣風(fēng)格的塔羅牌。在創(chuàng)作這副塔羅牌時，我開始畫很多不適合塔羅牌的人物和觀察。他們有了自己的牌組，綠色符號神諭。這些卡片很快就從我嘴里冒出來了。我立刻把滿腦子的事情列了一張清單。我打算讓神諭套牌一套60張牌，就像第一組從我身上傾斜而出，沒有任何阻礙。但奇怪的是，在第50張卡左右，它選擇了完成。

我早在一兩年前就開始研究如尼文，并花了一段時間試圖弄清楚我是否想要以及如何接近這個系統(tǒng)。說實話，我被如尼文困住了。它對我來說很遙遠(yuǎn);我無法把握這個集合的意義，我不斷地讓自己對每個如尼文的含義感到困惑，感覺這個符號不足以讓我抓住。

Green Glyphs, is, to me, a meditation. It's an anthology of magical forms of divination. It's realized, and yet simple and light. It doesn't scream, it doesn't take you to dark places. It's welcoming. It's familiar. It's the quiet negative space that you don't yet know you rely on. It finds itself in your daily life. A yellow butterfly. A day old cup of coffee. The Sun. The Moon. You. Me. It's all there, woven into Green Glyphs like old friends.

Green Glyphs is my attempt at bridging the gap, making something that is not overtly occult but more of a functional art piece that unfolds into four magical forms of divination.

When I created Green Glyphs Lenormand in 2019, I never intended it to grow into the collection it is today. I felt really light when I made the Lenormand deck. It felt calming and healing, like a breath of fresh air. I needed it. And then I made Cosma Visions, an oracle deck that took me nearly two years and a pandemic to finish. It took a lot out of me. It was deep and dark and beautiful.

I wanted to feel that lightness from Green Glyphs again, so I set out to make a Tarot deck in the same style. In the middle of that deck, I started drawing lots of characters and observations that just didn't fit into the Tarot deck. They became their own deck, the Green Glyphs Oracle. These cards came out of me fast. I immediately put together a list of things that filled my mind. I intended to make the Oracle deck a set of sixty cards, thinking that the way the first set poured out of me, it would be no problem. But oddly, around the fiftieth card, it chose to be done. I pushed for more, but everything I added after that point felt forced and unnecessary. And so the Oracle was finished.

I started to study Runes a year or two earlier and had spent a while trying to figure out if and how I wanted to approach the system. In all honesty, I was stuck on Runes. It felt distant to me; I couldn't grasp the significance of the set and I kept confusing myself on the meanings of each rune, not feeling like the symbol was enough for me to latch on to.

所以我做了我最擅長的事情，開始把它們畫出來。我打算做一個除了綠色符號之外的如尼文套牌。但它一直把我引回這里。有一些東西非常適合綠色雕文和古代北歐如尼文的風(fēng)格。在雷諾曼，曾經(jīng)放撲克紙牌的地方變成了展示符文符號的好地方，這些符號足夠大，所以它們?nèi)匀豢梢猿蔀榧埮频闹饕糠?。簡化的顏色也有助于在我的腦海中引導(dǎo)符文。使用顏色編碼的卡片和干凈的圖像使卡片簡潔而熟悉。因此，與神諭套牌交織在一起，綠色符號如尼符文誕生了。

我花在制作這套牌上的時間總是和我思考和寫牌的時間一樣多。這是創(chuàng)造這副牌最重要的方面之一，至少對我來說是這樣。當(dāng)我完成三個新套牌的初稿時，我關(guān)閉了文件，有一兩個月沒有看它們。這是它的一部分，我可以退后一步，敏銳地觀察它。我可以放手我喜歡的卡片，知道他們只是不適合。我可以編輯和重新審視那些需要更多愛的卡片，我可以真正理解這副牌在說什么。我認(rèn)為我制作的所有牌組都有不同的個性，我想確保這些牌組感覺像是兄弟姐妹，但每個都有自己的獨特性。

So I did what I do best and started drawing them out. I was going to make a rune deck apart from Green Glyphs. but it kept redirecting me back here. There is something that fits really well with the style of Green Glyphs and the ancient Nordic Runes. The places where the playing cards once were in Lenormand made great spots for displaying the runic symbols large enough so that they could still be a main aspect of the card. The simplified coloring also helped guide the Runes in my mind. The use of color-coded cards and clean imagery allowed the cards to be concise and familiar. So, intertwined with the Oracle deck, the Green Glyphs Runes were born.

I always end up spending about as much time on the creation of a deck as I do thinking and writing about it. This is one of the most crucial aspects in creating a deck, at least for me. When I finished the first draft of the three new decks, I closed the files and I didn't look at them for a month or two. This is the part where it stews and I can take a step back and look at it discerningly. I can let go of the cards I love, knowing that they just don't fit. I can edit and revisit cards that need more love, and I can truly understand what the deck is saying. I think that all the decks I make have different personalities, and I wanted to make sure that these decks felt like siblings, but cach with their own uniqueness.

我又花了六個月到一年的時間來寫這本書?？ㄆ呀?jīng)寫好了，但一旦你開始寫它們，它們又變了。這是一種推和拉的關(guān)系。它讓我精疲力竭，然后又讓我重新振作起來。它令人興奮，令人傷腦筋，有時它對我有點太嘮叨了，但我還是喜歡它。

在綠色符號牌上潦草的符號是為了增加一個額外的符號系統(tǒng)，就像表情符號一樣，這些符號可以自己說話。

綠色符號牌可以被從未有過占卜經(jīng)驗的初學(xué)者和高級讀者使用。整個集合的意象簡單、大膽，且易于解讀。完成這個系列之后，我讓它靜置了一會兒。我渴望與世界分享新的綠色符號套牌，但作為占卜工具的創(chuàng)造者，我知道這些東西需要時間來展開是多么重要。

在2022年寫這篇文章的時候，我已經(jīng)創(chuàng)造了超過10種不同的占卜工具和套牌。我越深入這個神奇的世界，我就越渴望發(fā)現(xiàn)新的方法來制作神奇的工具，為生活增添輕盈。我希望你的旅程能帶你走上許多曲折的精神探索之路。

與愛，

It took me another six months to a year to write this book. The cards were done, but once you start writing about them they change again. It's a push and a pull. It wears me down and then builds me back up. It's thrilling and nerve-wracking, and sometimes it nags at me just a little too much, but I love it all the same.

The glyphs that are scrawled throughout the Green Glyphs decks are meant to add an extra system of symbolism—like emojis, these glyphs can speak on their own.

The Green Glyphs decks can be used by beginners who have never had experience with divination and by advanced readers. The imagery throughout the collection is simple, bold, and easy to decipher. After I finished the collection, I let it sit for a while. I was eager to share the new Green Glyphs decks with the world, but as a creator of magical tools, I know how important it is for these things to take their time to unfold.

Upon writing this in 2022, I have created upwards of 1o different divination tools and decks. The deeper I get into this magical world, the greater my hunger is for uncovering new ways to make magic tools that add lightness to life. It is my wish that your journcy takes you down many winding paths of spiritual discovery.

With love,

我在試圖買牌的時候發(fā)現(xiàn)商家給的翻譯：青色符wen很容易被屏蔽，所以我在文中都叫綠色符號，如果要買，盡量打英文的名字，或者“青色符”，詹姆斯其他的牌，幻象系列都可以直接搜原名與棱鏡幻象，這是很輕松的了。

light visions 耀光幻象

prisma visions 棱鏡幻象
