Dreaming in Color:  Luman Deck
Art and meanings by:  Mindy Hope Sommers ©2002-2005

The Dreaming in Color Luman Deck is not just all about dreams, as the name may seemingly imply, but just like a dream, these cards can help us explore what is at work in our subconscious -- things that will be helpful to understand on a more conscious level.  Through these beautiful, flowery, colorful cards, you can gain powerful and spiritual messages of guidance to assist you in adopting a calmer and more peaceful state of mind.

I have also found how these cards are amazing to help one truly "feel" their emotions and feelings -- especially for anyone who tends to repress certain emotions.  One needs to truly feel their feelings in order to work through them properly.  It doesn't work well to keep pushing aside certain thoughts and emotions because one doesn't want to deal with them.  That can turn a molehill into a mountain rather quickly and just make matters worse.  So the value of these cards is truly extensive from my own experience in working with them.

In fact, with that said, some psychologists, psychiatrists, and therapists have used these cards with patients or clients in their practices.  The cards are definitely not limited to just oracle or Tarot card readers who work in the realms of metaphysics.  Anyone can benefit from the cards, even those who have no experience in metaphysical, healing, or therapeutic pursuits.  The Dreaming in Color Luman Deck was designed with the kind of visual stimulation that can allow one to unlock the subconscious mind (or the Higher Self).  Each card contains a keyword to help the user absorb the energy of that card's meaning and to provide a focus that leads to insights on questions and/or feelings that one is struggling with.

These cards can help bring out the things that you really need to understand, learn, or keep in mind to help you with the situation you are asking about -- from the emotional aspects to the intuitive aspects of a concern.  Sometimes the messages can bring up surprising elements that you hadn't considered before or didn't see how it could relate to your issue at hand, and sometimes you may see the message as a confirmation to your own intuitive thoughts that you've already been feeling about a situation.

The vibrant art in these cards is intended to portray what could be a dream scene -- in color!  Whether you dream in color or not (or even if you don't know whether your dreams are in color or black and white), the Dreaming in Color Luman Deck can help you on a subconscious and intuitive level. It is a deck that has even helped some bring out and advance their own intuitive and psychic abilities.  Therapists have used this deck with clients, and the imagery has been noted as being comparable or better than a Rorschach (inkblot) test.  The Rorschach test seems to be considered outdated in this age, but the Luman cards could be said to have far more to offer since they have been used by some therapists and counselors in their practices.

This 60-card set can be used for divination, but also for healing, meditation, and spiritual work.  The cards are not cluttered with useless things intended to dictate a card's meaning, but they serve to bring immediate information intuitively.  They can help bring the subconscious thoughts that are difficult to access down to the conscious level in order to be acknowledged, understood, and worked with.  Vital guidance can come to the surface through the use of these cards.  This is not to say that the deck will appeal to absolutely everyone, because each person has individual tastes and preferences . . . but the appeal of these cards for me is, in part, that they seem to have such a calming effect.  And when you are able to quiet your mind and reduce the "noise" and "clutter," you can better see inside yourself where it really counts!

This card set can also be used to help those who wish to change negative personality patterns.  It can be used to help understand frustrating relationship themes that continue to be repeated.  Most of the cards are vibrant in color, but there are a few that are intentionally done in black and white.  They are very attractive aesthetically.  There are a variety of uses for these cards, so divination use is just one possibility.  They can be used for therapeutic purposes, healing, journaling, meditation, and self-awareness, as well as divination.

The ultimate goal of the cards is to help people discover information about themselves and their lives.  From the spiritual to the psychological, there is certainly a wide array of applications for the "Dreaming in Color Luman" cards!  One does not have to be a Tarot reader, a student, or even a believer in the spiritual to gain value from this deck.  All that is required is a willingness to "test the power of the mind" . . . and if one has that sincere willingness, the cards can be used quite successfully.  This is not a card set where there is really any one "right" or "wrong" way to apply them.  It can be a very individual experience for each person.

Those who work with this powerful and enlightening deck successfully have discovered some profound insights into whatever information they were seeking to find.  Natural psychic abilities exist within each person, some to a greater or lesser extent than others . . . and the use of these cards can also serve to enhance one's natural psychic ability.  It's like a bridge between spirit and science that can be accessed when one gives their mind a chance to freely explore and imagine.
