The song of the goddess has echoed since the beginning of time. Now she is here, in her kaleidoscopic expression, to guide you home to your courageous heart. In this boldly illustrated oracle, feminine deities across many cultures have been uniquely reimagined with a surrealist twist to inspire your multi-faceted gifts. Receive guidance from these all-seeing, shapeshifting beings, who share the mythic stories of ancient Greece, Ireland, Haiti, Yorubaland, Japan and beyond. Each card's messenger—accompanied by their animal, elemental, celestial and botanical allies— brings primordial wisdom to help you navigate towards the visions of your soul. Traditional maidens, mothers and crones as well as enigmatic heroines and gender-fluid spirits dance through this deck. Celebrate the many faces, bodies and colours of the feminine, while witnessing your own dynamic beauty and divine potential in their reflection. Features 50 goddesses from eleven different origins. Artwork was inspired by their cultural references but the goddesses are depicted in a relatable way, without the traditional imagery and iconography. Many of the more familiar goddesses are envisioned in a completely unique way, giving the deck a fresh, modern and slightly surrealist feel. Stands out from other goddess decks because it contains a number of more obscure goddesses/mythic figures — including some gender-fluid heroines. Short and very digestible card messages make it great for quick readings or card-of-the-day readings. Guidebook draws on the power of myths as age-old stories that teach us how to live today. Artwork lends a striking, bold and contemporary aesthetic that's refreshing in the goddess deck arena.
