The Ofrenda Oracle: Celebrating the Day of the Dead / Celebrando el Dia de Muertos (60 Full-Color Cards and 136-Page Guidebook)
Nancy Hendrickson
Welcome to The Ofrenda Oracle, inspired by the celebration honoring the Beloved Dead during Dia de los Muertos— Day of the Dead
Ofrenda is Spanish for “offering.” These are the items placed on a home altar during the annual (traditionally Mexican) Dia de los Muertos celebration. An ofrenda, which may be quite large and elaborate, is usually created by the family members of a person who has died, and it is intended to welcome the deceased to the altar setting. The initial inspiration for this deck came from San Diego’s close association with Mexico and the yearly celebration of the Dead that runs October through the first days of November. From those vivid images and joyful celebrations came the idea for this kit of colorful cards.
The Ofrenda Oracle includes a sixty-card deck, designed to be read as an oracle. Included is a 136-page guidebook. Cards 1–36 mirror those found in a Lenormand deck, and can be used separate from the remainder of the deck. The additional cards beyond 1–36 depict the vibrant symbolism seen during the Day of the Dead celebration. The Ofrenda Oracle uses its illustrations, colors, and stories to create a sacred space that is perfect for this reunion, preserving traditional elements of the religious and cultural syncretism that is lived and breathed in Mexico.
This deck was birthed by three artists: authors Nancy Hendrickson (Ancestral Tarot and Ancestral Grimoire) and Carrie Paris (The Relative Tarot, The Beloved Dead, and The Sirens’ Song), and graphic artist Angelica Castro.
