Faces of Oshun Oracle - 44 cards devoted to the Yoruba goddess
Not all oracle cards approach spirituality in the abstract. This deck has a specific source: Oshun, the Yoruba goddess associated with rivers, love, fertility and abundance. Abiola Abrams brings that tradition into a contemporary setting without letting go of its origin.
The deck contains 44 cards. Each one highlights a different aspect of Oshun or a theme connected to her energy. The 160-page guidebook goes beyond card meanings: you will find historical background on the Yoruba tradition, meditations and concrete rituals.
What you see on the cards
The cards are large (100 x 137 mm) and show different manifestations of the goddess. The imagery is contemporary, with clear illustrations that invite reflection. Colours vary, but gold and blue appear often, referring to water and prosperity.
The focus lies on three areas: self-love, inner transformation and material abundance. These are broad subjects, but the cards make them concrete by returning again and again to the symbolism of Oshun herself. Rivers flow, blockages dissolve, wealth begins to move.
How this deck works in practice
You can pull a daily card, but the guidebook also offers longer spreads and exercises. Each card comes with a meditation or ritual that translates the message into something you can actually do. Not just reading, but acting.
This is not a deck that stands apart from its cultural context. The author writes with respect for Yoruba traditions and explains where the symbols come from. That makes it accessible, even for those without prior knowledge, as long as you are willing to work with intention.
Pull a card before a conversation about money, relationships or creativity. Read the corresponding ritual and carry out one action that matches the message.

Questions we often get
Do I need knowledge of the Yoruba tradition to use this deck?
No. The guidebook provides enough context and explanation. What matters is that you work with respect and are willing to learn about the background.
How does this deck differ from the African Goddess Rising Oracle?
That earlier deck covers multiple African goddesses. This one is entirely devoted to Oshun and her different faces. The focus is narrower, the exploration deeper.
