The Anubis Oracleis a shamanic guide to inner Egypt, a place of mystery, ancestral wisdom, and abiding love that resides within each of us. It is a place where the neteru--the archetypal deities and elemental spirits from the Egyptian pantheon--lead us on our journey of transformation, a journey designed to open our hearts and teach us the inner workings of the soul. The full-color deck contains a Key Card, a card for each of the 22 deities and 4 elements, and 8 composite cards that portray several deities together. These composites represent 8 major portals of initiation and complex archetypal relationships. The accompanying book provides detailed interpretations for each card and instructions for 8 divinatory spreads that include entering into the mystery, achieving higher love and wisdom, and identifying our sacred purpose. By divining with the neteru, the shaman within awakens. This allows the neteru to reveal the answers we seek in our personal lives and in our interactions with the world by connecting us with the wisdom, guidance, and shamanic mysteries of Egypt that live within us.
“Experiencing the archetypes of the alternate reality is a way to become a fully realized human being. The alternate reality is a parallel world filled with wise spirits, in this case the Egyptian neteru. They love us and long for us to seek their knowledge and are deeply involved in our lives whether we know it or not. The Anubis Oracle offers many easy and fun ways to play with the spirits so they can gently guide you to greater wisdom. The spreads created by the authors open uncanny doors into the alternate reality, the mysterious world of the neteru. This is a critical tool for all students of divination, a significant exploration of the pre-tarot divination tradition.” * Barbara Hand Clow, author of THE MAYAN CODE: TIME ACCELERATION AND AWAKENING THE WORLD MIND *

“A work rich in tarot resonances--cosmological, psychological, spiritual, emotional, and symbolic--focused directly on the sacred science of Egypt where tarot almost certainly has its roots. In a sense, The Anubis Oracle is more original than the original. An intriguing and convincing concept.” * John Anthony West, author of Serpent in the Sky *
“Nicki Scully and Linda Star Wolf are modern mystics who have gifted us with access to the deities of ancient Egypt whose archetypal force is expressed through this Anubis Oracle and card deck.

With Anubis as your pathfinder and these cards as your map, you will chart the course of your own creation. Let The Anubis Oracle guide you to an awareness of the interdependency of all creation through the accumulated wisdom of the ages.” * Mary K. Greer, author of MARY K. GREER’S 21 WAYS TO READ A TAROT CARD *

“This oracle pack provides an excellent introduction to the timeless practice of self-initiation through the empowered image. The gemstone-colored emblems seem to be drawn directly from the dreamtime of the immortals. Meditation with the text accompanying the cards opens doorways to deep communication with the neteru, initiating the reader into a realm of higher awareness and spiritual vision.” * Christine Payne-Towler, author of THE UNDERGROUND STREAM: ESOTERIC TAROT REVEALED *
“This book and its imagery is a gift to our limited ego. I applaud the authors for giving us a way to seek answers to our deeper questions.” * Brenda Schaeffer, author of IS IT LOVE OR IS IT ADDICTION? *
