The featured artworks belong to my recent project, the “Battle Of The Trees” ™ Celtic Board Game, a creative and inventive chase and battle game that retains part of the spirit of the ancient Irish "Brandub" and "Fidchell" board games. Inspired by the Welsh poem "CadGoddeu", the object of the game is to get the three creatures of the "Annwn" (The Celtic Underworld).

One of its main features is that you may not only play it as a battle game, but also as a way for divination...

You play as Gwydion, the bard and magician. “Lord of Knowledge” and “Lord of Trees”, and you will be responsible for animating the trees of the forest on their final quest.



 For further information about this game, I wrote a whole eBook as an extended version of the companion handbook, comprising the complete information upon the context and basis of “Battle Of The Trees” ™ Celtic Board Game, and now available on Kindle format at Amazon

 About the Celtic Oracle Decks and Ogham Divination


I have been attracted by divination techniques since the very first time I saw my grandmother performing her divinatory rituals when I was a little child. Like many other cultures, Celts are also inclined to gain insights into a situation at hand, wonder about future events, auspicious times, the proper candidate for a marriage, or even the correct moment to start a new and successful project.

Through the following years I began to find a great passion for Celtic Tree Lore, developing deep inside me a sheer connection with the spirits of nature and divinities that rule the sacred groves. 

Nowadays, we are not so different from our ancients. Though we have further material control of our lives, we can also experience insecurity in our lives, and some of us appeal to divination in order to find a tip, a hint, an omen, or a hopeful answer.

I created the “Wisdom of the Woods”™ decks and Wheel Board, not only as a divinatory oracle that should be used to predict the future, but a compendium of kennings and symbolism taken from the Ogham Tree alphabet, Druidry, and Celtic lore, in order to be used as a guide or a path to find the answer to our questions.

There is no doubt that Ogham symbols were employed as a ritual secret language. This is not only confirmed by the 15th century treatise "The Book of Ballymote", but also by the Highland Society of Scotland's on its "Dictionary of the Gaelic Language" as the "occult" manner of writing used by the ancient Irish, around the late second century.  



 Oracle Decks and Cleromancy

Oracle and Tarot decks are a development from the “cleromancy”, which is a way of divination that employs sortition, casting of lots, or casting bones or stones, in which an outcome is determined by means that normally would be considered random, such as the casting of sticks, runes, or cards, but are sometimes believed to reveal the will of a deity, or other supernatural entities. 
 
The technique of throwing tree sticks on a blanket for divination purposes, was precisely cited by the Roman historian Tacitus on his trip to Germany in the 1st century CE . 

We can also speculate that these sticks were thrown over a cloth known as “Fionn’s Window”
(aka "Fionn's Ridgepole"; being“ridgepole” the english for “fedge”) as depicted on page 170 of the “Book of Ballymote”.



Follow now your journey of awakening...
Divining is a healing art!

With dedicated time and practice, you will be able to make a final and inclusive conclusion which resumes the overall oracle aspects of the "Wisdom of the Woods"™ decks and Wheel Board. Always be true to yourself and follow your intuition. Remember that this baggage of ancient knowledge will assist you not only in your reflections and meditations, but also will help you to explore your inner soul and find out the balance in harmony and connection with Mother Earth.

Moreover you will find it useful for clearing up your mind regarding certain moments and events in your life. Regaining your balance and strength, you will certainly find yourself more reflexive upon the faults and fears that threaten us.

Even though you may use this oracle for your own sake, it is quite important for you to develop your inner intuitions and your empathy abilities in order to help querents. With a correct reading of the guidelines it will be more easy for the querent to apply them for his private benefit.

I do firmly believe that Divination is our personal journey to the Otherworld, it is our personal contact with Nature Sprites and Deities who will surely guide us through the correct options, and warn us from negative events in our lives. With the help of course of our Ancestors, who are certainly aware of how the past affects our future in this life.

Follow now your journey of awakening infused by the ogham kennings and wisdom of the trees... Learn about the divination meanings, create a sacred place of your own, and you will then comprehend the magickal reason why the cards are displayed on this way... listen to their luminous message flowing with harmony directly from the source....
