Step Into the Hidden Magic of the All Souls Universe

A breathtaking oracle deck inspired by Deborah Harkness's bestselling world of witches, alchemy, and ancestral magic.

Some decks are created for divination.

Others are born from legend.

The Black Bird Oracle Deck brings to life the mysterious family oracle first encountered in The Black Bird Oracle, the latest novel in Deborah Harkness's internationally bestselling All Souls series. For readers who have long imagined the Proctor family's treasured oracle, that imagined artefact now exists as a beautifully realised 52-card deck, inviting you to explore its wisdom for yourself.

Whether you're already enchanted by A Discovery of Witches or simply drawn to beautifully crafted oracle decks steeped in folklore, alchemy, and witchcraft, this is a remarkable addition to any magical collection.

🖤 A Fictional Oracle Brought to Life

Few oracle decks have such a fascinating origin story.

Rather than being created first and then inspiring a novel, The Black Bird Oracle Deck emerged from Deborah Harkness's storytelling. Within the pages of The Black Bird Oracle, the seventeenth-century Proctor family oracle plays an important role in Diana Bishop's journey. Now readers can hold that very oracle in their own hands.

Beautifully illustrated by British artist Hester Aspland, the deck weaves together symbolism inspired by nature, birds, moon phases, alchemy, magical tools, covens, and the elements. Every illustration feels as though it has been lifted from an ancient grimoire, blending historical elegance with contemporary artistry.

Collector's Note

One of the things that makes The Black Bird Oracle Deck so special is that it isn't simply merchandise inspired by a bestselling series. Deborah Harkness developed the oracle as an integral part of the fictional history of the Proctor family, giving it its own symbolism, structure, and magical traditions before bringing it into the real world as a fully realised oracle deck. The cards are organised into eight distinct categories: Elements, Birds, Covens, Tools, Principles, Alchemical Processes, Moon Phases, and Magics, creating a reading system unlike traditional oracle decks.

Why We Love It at Oneness Emporium

At Oneness Emporium, we love decks that tell a story.

The Black Bird Oracle doesn't simply accompany a novel, it extends its world. It allows readers to continue their journey long after the final page has been turned, while offering an oracle that stands beautifully on its own.

If you've ever wished you could step into the magical libraries, hidden gardens, and ancient family traditions of the All Souls universe, this deck offers exactly that.

And if you've never read the books?

You don't need to.

The symbolism, artwork, and gentle wisdom make this a captivating oracle in its own right, one that celebrates intuition, transformation, and the enduring magic found in stories.
