Created by bestselling author Deborah Harkness and illustrated by Hester Aspland, The Black Bird Oracle Deck transforms the centuries-old family oracle at the heart of Harkness’s The Black Bird Oracle into a divination deck readers can explore for themselves.

Within the world of the All Souls series, the oracle has been handed down through generations of the Proctor family before its secrets are discovered by witch and scholar Diana Bishop. Here, that imagined history becomes a working oracle in its own right, with cards exploring elements, birds, covens, magical tools, guiding principles, alchemical processes, moon phases, and forms of magic.

The deck’s richly detailed imagery draws together birds, celestial symbolism, alchemy, nature, and magical objects into a visual language designed for both intuitive and more structured interpretation.

The accompanying guidebook develops this symbolic world through card meanings, affirmations, correspondences, relationships between cards, and methods for reading the oracle. Rooted in the magical world of The Black Bird Oracle yet designed to be explored on its own, the deck offers a rich meeting place of folklore, nature, magic, and divination.
