Readers seeking a divination tool that connects them to ancient archetypes and powerful mythological figures will find this deck particularly resonant.
The Story Behind This Deck
Sam Flegal's journey with Norse Mythology began in college in 1999, where he immersed himself in world religions and found a profound connection with Norse lore. After years as a graphic designer, he returned to illustration in 2009 as a freelance artist, working in gaming and concept art. A client-free month in 2012 reignited his passion for personal work, leading him to paint Loki and later 'Odin's Secrets,' which he identifies as the true beginning of the Fateful Signs project. His art is deeply inspired by his personal connection to the Norse gods and myths.
