Hi guys, I have a bit of a long thread for you all coming. I have noticed some followers using Doreen Virtue decks, and I thought I would bring forward some information in regards to her.
Just know that everyone is welcome to follow their own spiritual path, however I previously owned her decks and so have family members of mine which we no longer have due to the path Doreen Virtue took.
You may not be aware of this information, so I wanted to put this here.

Let's start this by saying Doreen Virtue has a networth of about $116 million. Her success came from her presence in the New Age industry. She has sold millions of decks (which she wants you all to burn), and was a large part of the community through teaching and the works.
These days, she's a born again Christian. She changed her spiritual path, fine, but she has turned her back on absolutely everything she built. She has turned around and condemned anyone who admired and supported her.
Imagine how those who learned all they knew from this woman, who has said practicing New Age is demonic, an illness, and that Jesus is the only cure.
Words spoken from her directly "If you practice New Age, apologise, get on your knees and ask for help. Repent. Seek forgiveness. Practicing New Age is seeking peace and love, never finding it, and hell is your final destination".
It hits a sore spot for many vulnerable new beginners, or those who have been practicing for a long time and held her closely to their hearts. Faith is sacred, it's a special connection, and imagine seeing this unfold.
She references worshipping Goddesses as women who have had bad experiences with men. She says Goddesses are demons, or our imagination.
Yoga is is deity worshipping. Reiki and Crystal Healing it is demonic. You can't boost confidence. You can't believe in yourself.

She has said that the heart is misleading and deceitful. You can't worship creation, only the creator. Essential oils are bad. You can't call upon Angels.
Doreen Virtue has said that New Age is similar to alcoholism.

In addition, this woman has said to a black woman who's son was suicidal that suicide is a form of attention seeking and that those who are suicidal, never do it.
She has numerous articles online about being an anti-vaxxer, which is horrific to spread on such a wide platform.

Remember, this is a woman who people turned to, trusted, and found a place in their heart. She made millions from this. Many learned their belief and practices from her, and she ripped the rug beneath their feet.
So, take what you will. Overall, be careful using her decks.
