ABOUT THE ARTIST AND THE ARTWORK
ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Nicki Scully, who has taught Egyptian mysteries since 1983, lectures worldwide and specializes in spiritual tours to sacred sites. The author of Power Animal Meditations and Alchemical Healing, she lives in Oregon. Linda Star Wolf, founder of Venus Rising Institute for Shamanic Healing Arts, has led transformational workshops worldwide since 1984. She lives in North Carolina. Scully and Star Wolf are co-authors of Shamanic Mysteries of Egypt. Kris Waldherr is an illustrator, author, and creator of several oracle sets, including The Goddess Tarot, The Lover’s Path Tarot, and The Goddess Inspiration Oracle. She lives in New York.
“Experiencing the archetypes of the alternate reality is a way to
become a fully realized human being. The alternate reality is a
parallel world filled with wise spirits, in this case the Egyptian
neteru. They love us and long for us to seek their knowledge and
are deeply involved in our lives whether we know it or not. The
Anubis Oracle offers many easy and fun ways to play with the
spirits so they can gently guide you to greater wisdom. The spreads
created by the authors open uncanny doors into the alternate
reality, the mysterious world of the neteru. This is a critical
tool for all students of divination, a significant exploration of
the pre-tarot divination tradition.”
*Barbara Hand Clow, author of THE MAYAN CODE: TIME ACCELERATION AND
AWAKENING THE WORLD MIND*
“In this remarkable text and its accompanying deck, the authors and
illustrator have given us keys that can unlock the mysteries of
consciousness. They offer us a luminous understanding of the great
archetypal principles that formed and informed ancient Egypt and
that are part of the organizing patterns of the cosmos.”
*Jean Houston, author of The Passion of Isis and Osiris*
“A work rich in tarot resonances--cosmological, psychological,
spiritual, emotional, and symbolic--focused directly on the sacred
science of Egypt where tarot almost certainly has its roots. In a
sense, The Anubis Oracle is more original than the original. An
intriguing and convincing concept.”
*John Anthony West, author of Serpent in the Sky*
“Nicki Scully and Linda Star Wolf are modern mystics who have
gifted us with access to the deities of ancient Egypt whose
archetypal force is expressed through this Anubis Oracle and card
deck. As one who walks the shaman’s path and who is also loved by
the neteru, I recommend it most highly.”
*Hank Wesselman, author of the Spiritwalker trilogy and THE JOURNEY
TO THE SACRED GARDEN*
“The in-depth concepts and provocative images embedded within The
Anubis Oracle will touch the hearts and souls of all those who
earnestly engage it. Meditate upon these unveiled mysteries and
benefit.”
*Leonard D. Orr, author of BREAKING THE DEATH HABIT: THE SCIENCE OF
EVERLASTING LIFE*
“An enchanting way for you to enter the realm of the Egyptian
neteru and the archetypes of nature. With Anubis as your pathfinder
and these cards as your map, you will chart the course of your own
creation. Let The Anubis Oracle guide you to an awareness of the
interdependency of all creation through the accumulated wisdom of
the ages.”
*Mary K. Greer, author of MARY K. GREER’S 21 WAYS TO READ A TAROT
CARD*
“With The Anubis Oracle we have been given eons of ancient wisdom
unfolding through the bodies of the divine.”
*Normandi Ellis, author of AWAKENING OSIRIS: THE EGYPTIAN BOOK OF
THE DEAD*
“If you resonate as I do with the pantheon of the ancient Nile
valley, then the beautifully rendered images of this innovative
oracle will surely speak to you and avail you inner guidance and
meaning from the archetypal world.”
*Jeremiah Abrams, coeditor of MEETING THE SHADOW: THE HIDDEN POWER
OF THE DARK SIDE OF HUMAN NATURE*
“This oracle pack provides an excellent introduction to the
timeless practice of self-initiation through the empowered image.
The gemstone-colored emblems seem to be drawn directly from the
dreamtime of the immortals. Meditation with the text accompanying
the cards opens doorways to deep communication with the neteru,
initiating the reader into a realm of higher awareness and
spiritual vision.”
*Christine Payne-Towler, author of THE UNDERGROUND STREAM: ESOTERIC
TAROT REVEALED*
“This book and its imagery is a gift to our limited ego. I applaud
the authors for giving us a way to seek answers to our deeper
questions.”
*Brenda Schaeffer, author of IS IT LOVE OR IS IT ADDICTION?*
“The Anubis Oracle is a significant tool for the modern shaman that
taps in to ancient and current wisdom, guidance, and insights.”
*Baba Dez Nichols, coauthor of SACRED SEXUAL HEALING: THE SHAMAN
METHOD OF SEX MAGIC*
“The Anubis Oracle is a visionary immersion into the experience of
Egyptian wisdom and points us toward the living and timeless
mysteries of Christ Consciousness. The reappearance of Anubis as
the guide through the darkness of today’s world is something we
have all been waiting for and can help us return to our hearts, in
peace.”
*Padma Aon Prakasha, author of THE CHRIST BLUEPRINT*
" . . . anyone with an interest in the Gods and Goddesses of Egypt
will probably feel an extra special draw . . .
*The Pagan Review, Jan 2009*
"What's really fun and interesting about this deck is that it is
based on the mysteries and knowledge of Egypt, so if one is not
familiar with these, this is a chance to learn something new."
*Krysta Gibson, New Spirit Journal, Vol. 4 No. 10, Jan 2009*
"As a big fan of Nicki Scully's books on journeying with animal
spirits, I eargerly embraced this deck, created with her
clairvoyant colleague in shamanism, Linda Star Wolf, and artist
Kris Walkherr. Its are has all the soft, open color and popular
appeal we've come to expect from Walkherr, known especially for her
Goddess Tarot. This is a lovable oracle."
*Eva Yaa Asantewaa, reviewer*
"A lush journey into the mysteries of ancient Egypt, this deck
takes the reader on a quest of self-knowledge. The advanced user
will enjoy the rich imagery and the depth of care and understanding
utilized to create each fully realized aspect of the deck, while
the beginner can use the images to advance her own understanding of
greater mysteries."
*New Age Retailer, Spring 2009*
