You hold in your hands a wealth of ancient wisdom - a secret language of the Celts.
Open the pack, place the sticks in the hessian bag and you are ready to access this knowledge for yourself. Each of these authentic 'woods' is inscribed with a letter of the ancient ogam alaphabet. Each letter in this form of the alphabet represents a tree, and so the sticks are imbued with the poetic tree memory, and the magic and folklore of Celtic tradition.
By casting the woods and rolling the indicator stick you will invoke the sacred winds of direction for guidance. You can then consult one of 80 possible oracular answers to your question.
So become silent. Dwell on your issue and seek the heart of the oracle. Let the 2,000-year-old wisdom of this ancient tradition now reveal its secrets.(From back cover.)
Pack contains 20 authentic ogam woods, plus indicator stick, hessian bag, and 96-page illustrated guide book.
