Ajani is definitely being considered cause of his wowlue
the new enchantress is definitly being added in replace of one of the recursion cards
and heres to the white constellation being useful as well
Did you see the most recent cards!!!! Most def adding this one:
Kruphix's Insight 2G
Sorcery
Reveal the top six cards of your library. Put up to three enchantment cards from among them into your hand and the rest of the revealed cards into your graveyard.
You can choose not to take any and put them in GY for replenish too (key word 'up to')
If you're running a moat effect, why not run Gravity Well? It might also shut off your creatures (not 100% how that interaction works) but it lets you build board state until you or someone else gets rid of it, and then bam you should be able to knock off everyone one by one, correct?

"This ability triggers and resolves during the declare attackers step. The creature will no longer have flying by the time blockers are declared"
Courser of Kruphix: 3 things: counts toward enchantments, card advantage, gains life.
Eidolon of Countless Battles cheap value creature that can be beefy by itself, beef up another creature (cast it as an aura), and we are left with a creature after a wrath (and counts toward our enchantments)
My Thoughts on your list of potential cards
Eidolon of Rhetoric (check your spelling) I am not in love with this card. We can't replay enchantments in a turn to draw cards.
Eidolon of Blossoms: instant add. period.
Kruphix's Insight: instant add. period.
PS: Let's also discuss: Primeval Bounty
Your comment: "This card is good if you have Sigarda on the field, but this doesn’t synergize with flickerform as Sigarda will lose her counters, still worth considering though, as it powers Sigarda really fast."
I understand some people will see this as a win-more card, but it also allows us to 'rebuild.'
Heliod? yeah i have him currently cause i still dont have a rector and his tokens have slowed down the board long enough for me to drop some dangerous stuff. definitely worth using if you have one.
JOU has been included (look in the thoughts on sets section for details)

I personally don't like it because on its own it is a dead draw and it costs quite a bit to cast... Their are just better things you can do at that cost and card slot IMO. A card that I have been running to great effect in this deck (due in large part to the tiny enchantress creatures) has been Sublime Archangel. Strongly recommend that guy!

My bad, I overlooked the list. I do have a rector and she can deter attacks and board wipes on her own.

That has to be some of the weakest explanations ever given. It was also not directed at you, as you are not the original deckbuilder.
Boar Umbra, you give no alternatives, just blatantly state better options already exist, care to name a few?
Umbra Mystic: Independently of rancor like auras, this 3CMC creature allows for your aura to protect from a destruction effect. Not to be overlooked that lands with auras on them will not be destroyed in case or armageddon like effect, or single target removal. Enchanting a serra's sanctum for destruction protection is now a valid and viable play.
Instill energy: How is the only green aura to give haste in these colors useless? If haste is so useless why would the list bother using a land that gives haste at the cost of 3 life? Also it gives pseudo vigilance.
Daybreak Coronet: It does not work solo but is the most expensive aura money wise and for a good reason. It is a true MVP in modern GW aura decks and is the 3rd good lifelink aura which is a solid idea for redundancy. Lifelink is very important in creature centric and battlecruiser heavy metagames like mine.
Yavimaya Hollow: Glad you agree it is good. Saves you from certain board wipes.
Banishing light: Since oblivion ring is already in the decklist I suppose you meant you consider adding it for redundancy?
Land tax: no comment.
Wild growth and overgrowth: Since lateral options are already inluded they can be considered for redundancy? An overgrowth with an enchantress in play yields more profit than a Cultivate.
Verdant haven is indeed overcosted but allows for draw and life gains, a nice option to consider for redundancy.
Plea for guidance is expansive and does not get over the tax for Gaddock Teeg but the effect is powerful, it can fetch alternate victory conditions like sigil of the empty throne, or get an answer all card in oblivion ring. Also it can fetch alternatives enchantress that are also enchantments or courser of kruphix. It's also the only card to fetch in 1 spell the sylvan library/abundance combo. It is worth stronger consideration than that, I think.
Courser of Kruphix: So it was an oversight, alright.
I would also suggest a Green sun's zenith and a dryad arbor. The dryad arbor can wield auras which is close to none factor, but will also add exalted count for Sublime archangel and can help Green sun's zenith to double up as a ramp spell for 1G which is not to be overlooked. Ultimately the zenith will be able to grab utility creatures like any enchantress, a Gaddock Teeg or Qasali pridemage or finding a tucked Sigarda. The zenith is also repeatable, making it never a dead draw unless you first used it to grab Gaddock himself.
That has to be some of the weakest explanations ever given. It was also not directed at you, as you are not the original deckbuilder.
way to be a flamer. No need to be rude or threaten. And yes, anyone will answer your questions. It is called a forum and threads. A lot of people run similiar builds/themes; therefore, some cards are valued differently (as in courser of kruphix: some see it as a low effecient creature that adds no real value to the board. It takes a bit to generate any value. The card could be replaced with more synergy cards or better creatures. I value it high, as I need creatures and enchantments along with some sort of lifegain options).
Please refrain from attacking each other. As ajprokos said, anyone is free to respond to another users question. If you do not like his answers, ask him to explain or explain why you don't like them. But there is no need for either of you to get snippy with the other.

These are cards that you have not talked about that I think you should consider and tell why you did not add them. Let us know.
most of these cards have been in the deck at one point or another and have been cut because something that i felt was more useful was found.
Boar umbra - 3 mana for +3/+3 totem armor. it still puts you on a 3 turn clock. would rather have less power and more utility like having armadillo cloak or righteous authority. alternatively using the vows is also usefull as you have a psuedo pacifism. as for the totem armor on the umbra, sigarda is alread hard enough to remove. in the decks of my meta most decks dont run more than 2-3 boardwipe spells so i have chosen to forgo the totem armor for other ablities.
Umbra mystic - at 3 mana, she doesn do a whole lot on her own. since i dont use auras on creatures other than sigarda, mystic for me has often been a dead draw. if your meta is removal heavy then maybe consider it
instill energy - pseudo vigilance and haste. very nice but it doesnt add any extra damage or evasion
daybreak coronet - this card feels like a win more than anything else. if i put one aura on Sigarda it should be more than enough to start taking someone on the pain train. the clause where it requires another aura on the creature leaves you open to 2 for 1
yavimaya hollow - again this is a meta call. if your group uses *** alot then its pointless to try and regenerate it.
banishing light - a strict downgrade of o-ring. if anything i would rather use a more mana intensive card that has oring text.
land tax - if you hit your ramp then you shouldnt need land tax. since you dont use scroll rack there isnt much of a point to grab lands and fill your hand.
wild growth/overgrowth/verdant - heaven i like using the other ones more )
courser or kruphix - a pretty good card but idont like the idea of revealing all the cards that i draw. it also requires a land to be useful
For Boar umbra I could see if your meta is not packed with everywrath.dec you would forgo it. Mine is slightly different, it started battlecruiser, so the tokens deck took over so the arms race turned to heavy wrath effect decks to combat tokens.
Which brings me to the next card: Instill energy. Since my group is wrath heavy casting Sigarda and waiting is suicide. She will be blown off the table before the turn comes back to me. Having a haste effect is invaluable to me. Also I hav wn games of rebuilding by casting a 7cmc Sigarda an pulling off a replenish or retether that brought back all auras, including instill energy and attacking immediately for the win.
For daybreak coronet, it is leftover from the days where we played battlecruiser and tokens heavy, and I really needed more than 2 sources of lifelink auras. It is by far the third best option, no contest.
As for wild growth overgrowth, you could remove kodama's reach to add overgrowth. Same cost, nearly all upside with an enchantress in play. It is interchangeable cards.

Decks should and need to run at least 4-6 ways to destroy a land. So many problematic lands to not have them. Bounce lands get hit early and lands with enchantment land auras get destroy most of the time before untapping. Great early, but sometimes a dead draw later on in game (unless you already set a board presence but at that time any enchantment would do). At least Kodama thins out your deck. But yes, I have seen people only have ramp enchantments and others that want kodama like spells due to enchantment hate.
for the two i personally think that there are better enchantments Prison term can be moved to a more dangerous creature when it drops story circle i feel is better since you already will know the colour of your opponent's deck will save the 2 life as well.
although these cards are 1 mana more, they i feel are not just one time answers and can be used over and over again.
a tad expensive on the CMC, but if I understand it correctly, will let sigarda ignore non-targeted board wipes, besides all is dust type cards? seems like the ultimate aura
Edit: ah it seems that non-targeting bounce spells and -x,-x spells will still get around it? guess it helps against blasphemous act

boar umbra better options at 3 CMC to provide evasion or stats
umbra mystic niche card. Need all 3 rancor-like auras.
instill energy useless
daybreak coronet win-more card and can't work solo
yavimaya hollow I have it in mine and other Green decks. It does not produce color and other colorless land options might offer more utility
banishing light same reason for oblivion ring. They can still get it back.
land tax great card, can have great synergy - deck builders call
wild growth/overgrowth - lateral options already included
verdant haven overcosted
plea for guidance way overcosted and only gets 2 cards.
courser of kruphix might have been overlooked. I added it and enjoy it.
