As you may already know, I operate a one man studio. Meaning every inked illustration, designed graphic, directed/edited video, and written text was passionately created by yours truly. Add this to the plethora of research, planning, organizing, and communication required as a Creator to launch not one, but two crowdfunds in a 4 month period while making effort every day to support the campaign's goal. Yet this barely epitomizes a fraction of dedication poured into birthing ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ โ ๐ป๐ธ๐ ๐ต๐๐ฟ.
My overall goal to release ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ โ ๐ป๐ธ๐ ๐ต๐๐ฟ is to gift a unique one-of-a-kind creation to humanity. The deck's first campaign goal was to self publish & print 500 decks, with a second campaign launched attempting to print only 1/5 of that amount for 1/2 the cost. Unfortunately, the Kickstarter's campaigns were unsuccessful & were unable to find like-minded individuals to bring the collection to a physical release.
With all this in mind, ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ โ ๐ป๐ธ๐ ๐ต๐๐ฟ may very well be too ahead of it's time. I, for One, welcome enriching future generations, trusting that Universe will guide & provide this unique Oracle via synchronicity to those drawn to work with Nature by Nature for Nature.
Offering ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ โ ๐ป๐ธ๐ ๐ต๐๐ฟ on Kickstarter aimed to help lower costs for both pledges & production. The whole set was first available to pledge for $100 USD with an included 300 page guide book. The book was then delayed as to retool the deck for a second campaign. Upon scaling production & prioritizing printing over profit, cost for a deck set still increased to $123 for the second campaign.
The next logical step to scale down print is to offer this one-of-a-kind collection on an individual per-person-print basis. This allows for the campaign goal to always be funded, but would raise pledges to $200 USD plus shipping for the three volume deck set. Luckily the Full Moon has illuminated a path to success!
To eliminate added fees & services Kickstarter requires, I will instead be offering Pre-Orders for the ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ โ ๐ป๐ธ๐ ๐ต๐๐ฟ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ via my studio shop for $175 USD a set or $60 USD individually. With this decision, many of you may be on the fence, so I will be offering the first 10 Pre-orders who use the coupon code "EarlyBird' to lock in their $123 USD pledge price at check out. I will also be applying an automatic 10% discount for any additional pre-orders placed before March 2024.
To be clear, each deck will be printed on a per person basis in the United States. After a total of 15 pre-orders (or 15 days), a countdown will begin limiting the amount of orders that can be locked in before production begins. Printing will begin April 2024 (or earlier) with a 6-8 week turn around aimed for a Summer 2024 shipping date. As production status updates become known to me, you also will be kept notified via email.
For any and all questions, you can contact me through my website, shop, or Kickstarter & will be happy to answer any additional questions you may have.
Thank you again to all of you, and especially you reading this right now in the moment, yeah you. You are drawn into this moment by the dance of synchronicity so I appreciate your being & always know that you are so much and more!
May you continue to discover all the blessings each path has to offer,
