New Isis World Goddess Oracle Card


I recently redid the Isis card for the World Goddess Oracle. I was never quite happy with the original; besides being skewed from the astigmatism in my left eye (in a way that will probably drive only me crazy), I always thought She was a bit too passive in Her mourning. Isis should be more active, I think. That old Isis was just numb. Which is part of mourning, I know, but it didn't really work for me.

The new one has Isis in a pose after mourners depicted on ancient Egyptian tomb paintings, with disheveled hair and stylized tears on Her face.

I've put the new art up as a print at my deviantArt page, as well.

This Isis card shows her as She suffered the loss & death of her beloved
spouse Osiris. She did cry a river of tears, searching for him.
A moving tribute showing us that even the Goddesses suffer,
so they can understand our pain too.

Continued blessings,
