While Tibetan and Egyptian Books of the Dead are recognized as well-known guides to the afterlife, few people realize that the immrama - or voyage stories - of the ancient Irish reveal an indigenous Celtic tradition. Featuring 33 Island cards (representing the isles visited by Maelduin on his voyage - and the wonders and challenges encountered there), 2 Guide cards and 7 Gift cards, this striking deck can be used in conjunction with the book in a variety of ways, whether as an oracle to discover the path ahead, a guide to the soul's direction, a meditational tool for personal and environmental healing or even as a `Book of the Dead' for the dying and the `soul midwives' who attend them.
Use these windows between worlds to guide your own voyage of self-discovery, as you journey forth on your life's path.

Includes 42 beautifully illustrated cards plus layout template
