The Living Wisdoms Oracle is a 99-card deck for divination. These are altar cards, illuminations for reflection & conversation, sparks for organizing counter-oppressive actions, inspirations for decolonial devotion.
This oracle is mapped by themes including ancestors, bodies matter, organic multi-religiosity™, scholartivism, luminous darkness, al-Andalus ~ intersections between Islam & Judaism, and more.
A portion of the proceeds from the Generosity and Bless the Love sales will support the Baba Makam Fund.
The oracle can be shipped anywhere within the US. For international orders contact us directly.
Each card draws from Baba’s teachings either written or spoken.
