Spirit Messages Oracle Cards by John Holland

Today I’m reviewing John Holland’s beautiful Spirit Messages Oracle Card Deck—in the best way possible: by sharing a real reading.

Spirit Messages Oracle Card Deck available on Amazon.

This is one of my favorite decks for daily guidance. It’s comforting, insightful, and helps me feel more connected with Spirit and my loved ones..

About the Deck

John Holland’s Spirit Messages is a 50-card oracle deck designed to:

  • offer support, comfort, and divine guidance from Spirit
  • connect you with loved ones, ancestors, and guides
  • bring through messages from Spirit Helpers
  • offer clarity and direction during life’s turning points

The cards focus on self-love, vulnerability, trust, and relationships, with messages that feel both deeply personal and universally healing.

My Three-Card Spread

For today’s daily spiritual guidance reading, I pulled three cards:

Choices, Support, and Vulnerability.

Each one carried a message that spoke directly to my heart.

1. Choices

Being reminded of the chain of choice and consequence is always grounding.

When we take full responsibility for our choices, we gain deep insights into how our life unfolds—though, of course, it’s not always easy!

I love the imagery on this card: many doors radiating from the person’s heart center.

It reminds me of what I call the Zone of Choice in the Akashic Records—a place where we can step back, look at potential futures, and explore probable outcomes from our current energy.

This is how intuitive readings of the “future” really work: they reflect the trajectory we’re on right now, allowing us to consciously choose our next steps.

As Abraham Lincoln said,

“The best way to predict the future is to create it.”

2. Support

This card always brings comfort. It reminds me that people can come and go from our lives, but support never truly disappears; it simply shifts form.

It also makes me think of my mother, Margaret Elizabeth Hubbard (née Lawrence), who lived from January 3rd, 1928 to July 27th, 2010.

As a single mum myself, I sometimes feel unsupported. Yet I come from a long line of strong women, and I know that web of strength surrounds me even now; from Spirit, from ancestors, and from those who love me here on Earth.

The photo I keep of my mum reminds me that she was the one who told me,

“Write about what you know.”

She inspired me to create this site.

Over the last few years, I’ve even reconnected with family members who share my psychic sensitivity.

It’s comforting to feel that connection both physically and spiritually and to know I’m held in both worlds.

3. Vulnerability

This card is a gentle nudge to embrace vulnerability rather than fear it.

Many of us learn early on—through school or difficult experiences—to hide our softer sides. But being vulnerable is not weakness; it’s the doorway to authentic connection.

The quote on the card says:

“Don’t allow a misguided sense that feeling vulnerable is somehow a negative condition.”

That really resonated with me. It reminded me of a film I watched recently, Switch, where one of the male characters, often teased for being sensitive, defends himself by saying that being introspective is a virtue.

As a Highly Intuitive Person, I couldn’t agree more. Without introspection and vulnerability, we can’t evolve or truly know ourselves.

A Final Message

As I finished my reading and set the deck down, one last card slipped out and landed on my desk.

I knew instantly it was from my daughter, Callie, who passed in 2017. March is her birthday month, and I’ve been feeling her presence strongly these past few days.

This is the first year I’ve been able to write her name and the age she would have been (20), on my kitchen calendar. Until now, it’s always felt too painful.

But this year, I could. That, to me, is healing.

The card that fell features a mother and daughter, both with dark hair (like us).

The energy is wrapped in shades of green, the color of Archangel Raphael, the healing angel.

I know in my heart that this message was from her. It was deeply personal and profoundly comforting.

Akashic Tarot Card Readings

I’ve been reading the Akashic Records (Soul Blueprint and Past Lives) since 2010.

One way to grow your psychic ability is to begin to work with your Akashic Records. This expands the connection to your Soul through your Higher Self (aka your intuition).

If you are interested in an Akashic Records Reading, I always recommend starting with the Soul Star Reading.

This reading gives you 3 different immersive experiences of the Akashic Records: –

  1. Connecting with your Divine Soul Blueprint (Soul-level gifts, talents, abilities).
  2. Hearing about a Past Life that contains a karmic pattern ready for clearing (you’ll recognize this pattern in your present life).
  3. Recognizing and clearing present life blocks and restrictions.
