Long ago, many cultures relied on real and mythical animal spirits for guidance. Based on ancient Greek and Celtic oracles, The Magical Menagerie is a divination system for today. Combining the primary elements (earth, air, fire, and water) with animal spirits, this modern oracle is a helpful tool for self-exploration, problem-solving, magic work, and divination.
Each card represents a spiritual entity and an associated elemental quality. The 42-card deck includes common animals, fantastic beasts (unicorns, centaurs, dragons, etc.), elemental gnomes, undines, sylphs, a fetch, and quintessence (the fifth element).
Detailed descriptions of each card, a history of the elements, spreads, and sample readings are provided in the Companion Guide to The Magical Menagerie, included in the kit.
