About this deck
The
Barbieri Unicorns Oracle, illustrated by Paolo Barbieri with lyrics by Rachel Paul, offers a unique take on unicorns that transcends traditional cutesy stereotypes. This powerful oracle deck can be used for both divination and inspiration, restoring a sense of sublime wisdom to one of the world's most magical beings.
Background and imagery
This fascinating and unique deck contains 34 cards featuring Barbieri's popular fantasy artwork, originally from his 2019 book. Each card depicts a unicorn in various guises, such as birds, butterflies, snow, planets, mountains, flowers, demons and dragons. The titles of the cards remind us that what we see with our eyes is only symbolic of the message the unicorn wants to convey. For example, the autumn leaf unicorn is titled 'Not a Leaf — Ending', which heralds change, and the fire unicorn is 'Not a Fire — Creativity', which is brimming with inspiration.
How the deck comes to life in readings
The included guidebook offers a meditation, an affirmation and an action for each card, all aimed at bringing unicorn-like transformation into our lives. The overall atmosphere is light, positive and fun, and surprisingly irresistible in its sheer ingenuity.
