The Oracle of Rewilding: A Surreal Bestiary of Spirit and Kinship
Step into a dreamscape where myth and memory blur, and the boundaries between human and animal dissolve. The Oracle of Rewilding is a visually arresting oracle deck that fuses antique portrait photography with visionary animal spirit art—each card a doorway into a wild, forgotten realm of soul-deep connection.
This is not just an oracle; it is an invitation to reawaken your primal self. Each card whispers of an ancient alliance—of shared instinct, mirrored consciousness, and the silent language of the earth. The uncanny human-animal hybrids that populate the deck emerge as surreal totems of transformation, wisdom, and warning. They call forth the Trickster, the shapeshifter, the guide who thrives in times of upheaval.
More than a tool for divination, The Oracle of Rewilding is a ritual in imagery and intuition. The companion guidebook offers rich insight into each being’s message, inviting you to reflect, reimagine, and rewild your relationship with nature and yourself.
In a world increasingly fragmented, this oracle offers a sacred reconnection—with the wild within, and the life around.
