Way of the Oracle- Throughout history, the uncertainties of life have driven people to seek council from prophets, seers, and oracles. People everywhere have shared this desire to talk to lost loved ones, find out about work and love, and determine what the future will bring.
In The Way of the Oracle, noted author, scholar, and pagan priestess Diana L. Paxson offers a broad overview of the traditions of famous oracles in history: from the Pythia at Delphi, the son of Beor, the Irish Druidess, and the Greenland volva to today's modern seers who are resurrecting ancient skills to serve their communities. Paxson identifies the core elements of prophetic practice and offers exercises and examples, illustrations and chants, to demonstrate how to do oracle work and do it wisely - by Diana Paxson.
