“The St Soleil 2027 Celestial Journal is a yearly astrology almanac and planner of 524 pages. It combines a calendar of the Sun, Moon and planetary movements for 2027 with monthly planning pages, weekly spreads, New and Full Moon spreads, seasonal festival pages and guided reflection prompts, all bound in a soft vegan leather folio.”
“It is both. The almanac side records the celestial events of 2027: Moon sign ingresses, New, Full and Quarter Moons, eclipses, planetary stations, the major outer planet aspects, equinoxes, solstices and seasonal festivals. The planner side gives you monthly calendars, Monday to Sunday weekly spreads and reflection pages so you can plan and journal alongside those events.”
“No. The journal opens with an annual celestial overview, a guide to celestial language, a field guide to the celestial bodies and an introduction to working with your natal chart, the lunar cycle and the Wheel of the Year. It is designed for reflection rather than prediction, so you can begin with the Moon phases and grow into the rest.”
“It is a long-form journal for self-reflection, personal ritual, intention setting and inner growth. Its framework gives structure to self-inquiry without telling you what you should discover. It suits spiritual journalling, mindfulness, shadow work, gratitude, affirmations and personal development.”
“No. The entries are dateless, so there is no pressure to write every day. You can use it intensely for a while, put it aside and return whenever you feel called to reflect.”
“Yes. It works alongside meditation, tarot, oracle cards, breathwork or quiet contemplation. You can record intentions before a ritual and reflections afterwards, or journal through a tarot reading.”
“Yes. It was designed as the original beginner tarot deck with keywords. Every one of the 78 cards prints upright and reversed keywords alongside astrological symbols, zodiac correspondences and elemental associations, so you can read a spread and build confidence without constantly checking the guidebook.”
“Yes. It is a complete 78-card deck with all the Major and Minor Arcana, following the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith system while featuring a contemporary celestial aesthetic.”
“No. The deck contains absolutely no AI-generated artwork. It was created by St Soleil's Britta in 2016 through a meticulous handmade collage process, years before AI image generation became widely available.”
“The artwork is a celestial collage: an intricate pastiche of vintage imagery, original St Soleil design work and public domain artworks spanning the 15th to 19th centuries, inspired by Renaissance masters such as Botticelli and Fra Angelico. Each card is cut, layered, textured and reimagined into ethereal dreamscapes.”
“Only the colourway. The beige edition keeps a soft, creamy palette, while the Black Eclipse edition has a deep, velvety dark finish. The deck inside is identical.”
