Toltec Oracle

DIVINATION"Victor Sanchez walks his talk. Trust it!" Jamie Sams, author of Medicine Cards"The Toltec Oracle is a powerful and insightful revelation of the core of the Toltec tradition, one of the world's richest sources of ancient wisdom. Victor Sanchez once again gifts us with a highly rewarding and practical way to apply this shamanic knowledge to our daily lives."Jose Stevens Ph.D., author of Secrets of Shamanism"I love Victor's integrity, his insight, and his depth. Using this oracle, I have learned more about Toltec spirituality and understood more about my own presence, as well as how to come into greater harmony with the whole--the holy circle of All My Relations."Brooke Medicine Eagle, author of Buffalo Woman Comes Singing and The Last Ghost DanceBased on the divination tool known in ancient Mesoamerica as the Cross of Quetzalcoatl, The Toltec Oracle conveys the essence of the spiritual wisdom of the Toltec and provides a sacred mirror with which to see the hidden truths and potential of our souls. The deck consists of 33 cards--20 Tonalpohualli cards derived from day-signs in the Toltec calendar that represent the archetypal forces of life, and 13 Ruler cards that depict the main deities and sacred principles of the Toltec tradition--as well as a color layout for readings. Using original sources of Toltec literature, poems, paintings, and philosophical texts, The Toltec Oracle gives the meaning of each card as it relates to Toltec symbolism and metaphysics. The oracle also shows how that meaning is affected by the placement of the card in one of the four layout quadrants that correspond to body, mind, emotions, and spirit. The more than 200 guiding principles and practices that accompany the card explanations provide meaningful applications of the wisdom of the readings.Anthropologist VICTOR SANCHEZ has dedicated his life to the preservation of the traditions of the indigenous peoples of Mexico. He is the author of The Teachings of Don Carlos, The Toltec Path of Recapitulation, and Toltecs of the New Millennium, and conducts workshops on Toltec teachings and personal growth worldwide.
