The 12-Step Recovery Oracle

The 12-Step Recovery Oracle is a 64-card deck designed to offer support and insight to individuals in recovery from addiction. Created by Katie Sargent, who is herself an addict in recovery, the deck translates the principles and healing concepts of the Twelve Steps into an accessible oracle format. It provides a tool for daily reflection, meditation, and guidance, helping users connect with the core tenets of recovery in a personal and intuitive way.

The deck's creation stems from the creator's personal journey, aiming to share a resource that can aid others in their process of 'getting it together.' The cards are intended to be used for introspection, offering prompts and affirmations that resonate with the challenges and triumphs of sobriety. The focus is on fostering self-awareness, spiritual growth, and resilience, all within the framework of the established Twelve Step philosophy.

Funded successfully on Kickstarter in 2022, the deck was offered with an option to donate a second deck to an addict or alcoholic in need, underscoring its mission of community support and shared healing. The 64 cards are designed to be a companion for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of recovery principles and apply them to their daily lives, whether they are new to the Twelve Steps or have been in recovery for years.

This deck is specifically for individuals in recovery from addiction, particularly those who resonate with or are engaged in the Twelve Steps program. It serves as a supportive tool for daily reflection, meditation, and personal growth within that framework. It also appeals to sponsors, therapists, or counselors who work with individuals in recovery and are looking for a complementary resource to aid in their practice.

Katie Sargent, the creator of The 12-Step Recovery Oracle, is an addict in recovery. Her personal journey through the Twelve Steps inspired her to create this deck as a tool to help others navigate their own paths to sobriety and well-being. She describes herself as "just a recovering addict in the process of getting it together—one card at a time," highlighting the deeply personal and authentic motivation behind the deck's creation.
