Oráculo de Los Ángeles Amazónicos, El

Shamanic artist Pablo Amaringo left countless unfinished drawings and paintings when he passed away in 2009, along with hundreds of pages of writings about his knowledge of the spiritual universe of the Amazon. Working with these unfinished materials, Howard Charing, a lifelong friend and scholar of Amaringo, has created an oracle deck and guide inspired by Amaringo's visionary art and spiritual wisdom. It includes 33 full-color playing cards, each depicting an angel, deva or nature spirit against an intricate backdrop of Amazonian jungle plants and animals, celestial bodies, ancient temples, spiritual symbols and ayahuasca visions. Many of these angels and devas have appeared in Amaringo's paintings, and are part of the details that make this work unique and connect it to the magic and mystery of the Amazon. The guide that accompanies the deck discusses the meanings of the angel, deva or plant spirit of each card and provides spreads based on traditional shamanic practices, such as those of the Mesa Norteña of northern Peru. This book also includes thoughts to reflect on each card to help you connect with the shamanic spirits and angelic beings of the Amazon, as well as the visionary art of Pablo Amaringo.
