The Story Behind This Deck
Sam Flegal's journey with Norse Mythology began in 1999 during his college years, where he immersed himself in world religions and found a profound connection with Norse lore. This passion consistently influenced his art education. After years as a graphic designer, he returned to drawing and painting as a freelance illustrator in 2009. A client-free month in 2012 led him to personal work, reigniting his focus on Norse gods, starting with a painting of Loki. This personal exploration, particularly his connection with Odin, eventually inspired "Odin's Secrets" and marked the beginning of the Fateful Signs Oracle Deck.
