"The book devotes around six pages to each card. A monochrome image of a card is shown accompanied by lines of poetry or other texts. An in-depth look at the mythology surrounding each tree or plant follows, encompassing many tales of deities from India, Egypt, Greece and Rome. There are Buddhist tales alongside Native American, European, Amazon, Mesopotamian and African. A study of the botany and history of each tree is included, followed by an interpretation of the card's meaning, both upright and reversed. This is not an oracle where you draw a card, have a quick peek at the relevant page and move on! ...The Green World Oracle is a substantial body of information bringing layers of history and traditions to a beautifully produced deck." - Treewitch - TABItarot blogspot

Paperback. Condition: new. Stanton, Sandra (illustrator). Paperback. The Green World Oracle focuses on trees and plants as primal symbols of life. Each has an oracular voice, as do the nature spirits, devas, and deities associated with them. Trees speak to us of living in balance with all of life. People often refer to their "roots," the "fruits" of their labor, trees of wisdom, and trees of good and evil. Abused women in Greek mythology are rescued by being turned into trees; children are born from them; gods like Osiris are entombed in them; sacred fire is struck from them; the voice of Moses' deity came from one. We plant a tree to celebrate a wedding, a birth, or to mourn a death. Humankind has always sensed the presence of spirits, or "otherness," around trees. This oracle gives voice to their rich, caring insights. A beautifully designed deck of thirty-three cards offers access to these mysterious realms.
