About This Deck

The Oracle of Freya is an original oracle deck created by Bela Síol, a Brazilian pagan priestess based in NY. This deck is inspired by the Norse goddess Freya and the spiritual journey of the Völva, a seeress or wise woman in Norse tradition. Síol emphasizes that her decks are not only for divination but also for self-knowledge and divine connection, aiming to provide spiritual guidance and inspiration to users.

Following the successful publication of The Oracle of Nehalennia (2018) and The Transformational Oracle of The Morrighan (2019), The Oracle of Freya continues Síol's work in developing oracle decks inspired by the goddesses she works with. The campaign, launched in 2020, successfully raised $5,863 from 143 backers, indicating a strong community interest in her unique approach to oracle creation.

Each pledge tier for the deck included a complete set with a box, the deck of cards, and a user guide, ensuring that every backer received a comprehensive tool for their spiritual practice. The deck is designed to be original and effective, reflecting Síol's personal dedication to paganism and her experience in creating spiritually resonant tools.
