Mystic Islands Oracle

This captivating and velvety deck offers a rich exploration of traditional Indonesian myths through a feminine lens. Mira, deeply influenced by her Javanese heritage, invites us on an enchanting journey. Each card reveals profound mysteries and timeless wisdom, illuminating the strength and resilience of the female figures entwined in these tales.

Inspired by folkloric Indonesian tales and Javanese magic beliefs, you may see a reflection of yourself through a different lens from these traditions. Mystic Islands Oracle will be your guide in living a magical and serene life, meditating on the Javanese philosophy of memayu hayuning bawana, or beautifying the beautiful world - in other words: finding harmony between the self, nature and the Divine, which are interconnected and have the power to affect one another and, ultimately, your reality. The 44 cards of this fascinating deck are divided into five sections, each with special offerings or suggestions that you can incorporate into your personal rituals. The accompanying guidebook includes a visualisation practice that will help transition your mind from the chaos of daily life into a quieter and more focused state of being before using the cards.
