E100 GREEN ORACLES 255741
€90.00 (In Stock)
The deck contains 54 cards

€ 90,00
Card size approx cm 10 x 15
Cardboard box and jute card pouch with charm
Limited edition of 50 numbered and signed copies by the author
The volume from which the illustrations of the 54 cards are taken is derived from a document by the Greek doctor and pharmacist Dioscorides. It was translated into Arabic in the 10th century, at the time of the Caliph of Cordova Abd al-Rahman III (891-961). In 1518, the work appeared in Latin by Antonio de Nebrija of the School of Translators of Toledo and, in 1555, in Antwerp, a Spanish version was made by the papal doctor Andrés Laguna, not before consulting numerous botanical texts, including those of Pietro Andrea Mattioli (1501–1578). This text continued to be reproduced in facsimile until the 19th century.
To create this unusual oracle, among the six hundred images included in the volume (of plants and animals), by an anonymous author probably Belgian or Italian, 54 images were chosen, for which brief notes are given on their history and mythology, and meanings were chosen drawn from different and certainly not exhaustive traditions.
The elaboration and contact with the suggestions of each plant will help to better understand one's present, entering into connection with an enchanted world where divinities, heroes, fairies, elves, and other fantastic creatures become the basis for a deep personal analysis, aimed at recovering that sacred world that surrounds humanity and that nature that asks for respect, devotion, and care.

The book from which the 54 card illustrations were taken was derived from a document by the Greek physician and pharmacist Dioscorides. It was translated into Arabic in the 10th century, at the time of the Caliph of Cordova Abd al-Rahman III (891-961). In 1518, the work appeared in Latin by Antonio de Nebrija of the Toledo School of Translators and in 1555, in Antwerp. A Spanish version was also drawn by the pontifical doctor Andrés Laguna. This text continued to be reproduced until the 19th century. To create this unusual oracle, 54 images were chosen among the six hundred included in the volume (of plants and animals), which were most likely drawn by an anonymous Belgian or Italian. The explanations and suggestions of each plant’s essence and meaning work with a clearer comprehension of their qualities, while connecting with an enchanted world where divinities, heroes, fairies, elves and other fantastic creatures become the foundation for a profound, personal study and analysis. To recover that sacred realm that surrounds humanity and become more in tune with nature requires respect, devotion and care.
