The Celtic Book of the Dead

This completely revised and updated edition of this classic oracle features 42 beautifully illustrated cards based upon the ancient Irish text of the Voyage of Maelduin.

---

While Tibetan and Egyptian Books of the Dead are recognized as well-known guides to the afterlife, few people realize that the immrama - or voyage stories - of the ancient Irish reveal an indigenous Celtic tradition. Featuring 33 Island cards (representing the isles visited by Maelduin on his voyage - and the wonders and challenges encountered there), 2 Guide cards and 7 Gift cards, this striking deck can be used in conjunction with the book in a variety of ways, whether as an oracle to discover the path ahead, a guide to the soul's direction, a meditational tool for personal and environmental healing or even as a `Book of the Dead' for the dying and the `soul midwives' who attend them.
Use these windows between worlds to guide your own voyage of self-discovery, as you journey forth on your life's path.
