World Shamans Oracle

An oracle deck of shamanic inspiration, suitable for those on a spiritual journey and for regular use by those seeking a daily opportunity for self-reflection.

Who are shamans? What do they do? Healers. Masters of secret and sacred elements. But do we really know their stories? We hear about them from researchers, poets, ecologists, and spiritualists, during an era in which re-establishing a conscious contact with our world is essential.

This 50 card oracle deck depicts real shamans (both famous and lesser known), sacred plants, animals, and the places that inspire them—all explained in an accompanying full-coloured booklet.

AUTHOR: Francesca Matteoni holds a doctorate in modern history and teaches the history of religions, the anthropology of witchcraft, and mysticism at various universities in the U.S. and Italy.
