The Goddess Card Pack

It's a divination deck, a way to experience 25 aspects of the goddess, and an aid to meditation! Packed into this exquisitely decorated flip-top box are 25 large and beautiful full-color cards, each dedicated to a different female divinity, and a wonderfully informative guidebook. Anna Franklin, the well-known pagan author of The Wellspring and Illustrated Encyclopedia of Fairies, explains the imagery and symbols for every card; describes the function and lore of each goddess; and gives instructions on how to use the card in both the upright and reversed positions. The goddesses come from a variety of traditions and places, including Artemis, the wild and free Greek huntress, and the Egyptian Matt, who stands for justice, truth and balance. Look carefully at the cards and see how each one touches you at the deepest level: they're designed as visual triggers and feature key symbols to help you feel the sacred feminine within yourself.

The history of the runes is mysterious. According to Norse mythology, Odin, the chief of the gods, hung himself in self-sacrifice from the world tree Yggdrasil for nine days and nights in order to receive cosmic wisdom. This was granted to him in the form of the runes. The word rune is derived from rúna, an ancient Germanic word meaning whisper or mystery. The runes make up an alphabet that, with local variations, was used across most of northern Europe from pre-Christian times until the thirteenth century. This book explains the meanings of the runes and the Norse mythology that underpins their basic concepts. The straight, angular lines of the runes are ideal for carving into bone, wood, or stone, or forming with twigs. Different methods for making runestones are described with instructions on how to use them for divinatory and magical purposes, from making talismans to petitioning the Norse gods. In addition to the history of runes and how to use them, this pack comes with 36 handy cards so that the wisdom of the runes can be carried with you at all times. The cards include handy carry-size information on the 24 runes and their meanings, plus some essential runic blessings and wishes.
