The Belline Oracle
The Belline Oracle
Its author, Edmond Belline, used to tell those who consulted him that, in addition to knowledge of the future, his oracle gave self-confidence. Belline created her game by choosing symbols known to all (the owl, the boat, the moon, the sun, the star, the trunk, the key) and which evoke in each of us reminiscences and intuitions: Belline was the king intuition. He always repeated to those who consulted him that the best thing to do is to listen to yourself, the advice of others, but always follow your heart, and not feel forced to do something you do not want.
Why oracle and not game?
Belline said that every time the cards were drawn, an oracle was consulted: a kind of reading that each one made of a moment of his life thanks to the cards that the soothsayer extracted. In this way, everyone could become his own oracle or someone else's oracle, the only thing that mattered was the spirit with which the results were interpreted. The more disinterested and concerned about the good of the other, the more the oracle would respond correctly.

The oracle of Belline is made up of 52 cards, 49 of which are regulated by the 7 planets and 3 prime cards, and generally contains an additional card that is not counted in the deck.
The additional card
It is a unique card, it is not influenced by any planet and it has no number, it is the beneficial and positive card par excellence.
The 3 prime cards
Description: a golden key. This key, symbol of knowledge, allows the one who possesses it to open a door or close it, to let other people into the room, to block them or free them.
Destiny is a card that promises luck and success in all fields. Whoever extracts it must know that it is an omen of good luck which must be taken advantage of by making the best use of the key. In fact, is it not said that God helps you?
2) The star of the woman
Description: the face of a woman in Egyptian style surmounted by a star: each point of the star is divided into 2 parts. Everything is located within a dotted circle, it is like a flower that opens, a lunar symbol that allows for great spiritual growth.
If it is a woman who consults the cards, this sign will represent her. If a man is consulting the oracle, this card will refer to a female presence among his loved ones: his wife if he is married, a friend or lover, a woman in her professional future, etc.
3) The star of man
Description: the face of a man, perhaps even a pharaoh, surmounted by a star formed by two crossed triangles. It is the Seal of Solomon, synthesis of opposites ... The Seal of Solomon expresses the right means that connects the terrestrial world and the celestial world, the material and the spiritual.
If a man is consulting the cards, this symbol will represent him. If it is a woman, this card will refer to a male presence among her loved ones: the husband for a married woman, a new man among her acquaintances, etc.
