A new card deck from best-selling author Diana Cooper to help you understand the animal world from a new and higher perspective.By popular demand, author of The Archangel Guide to the Animal World Diana Cooper has created a one-of-a-kind oracle deck combining the divine wisdom of the Archangels with the natural beauty of the animal kingdom.Each of the 44 cards in this deck represents an animal, bird or insect, and shows symbols associated with each creature to help you interpret its spiritual messages. For example, if you pick the Hyena card, your guidance is 'dare to be different'; the card then advises you to be true to yourself and make change happen in your unique way. Every animal also works with a specific Archangel, who is indicated on that card. The accompanying booklet offers the reader unique information about each animal, both practical and spiritual, as well as its soul purpose and service mission, and the direct guidance the Archangels want to give you through these beauti

A story about difference, exclusion, experience, and ultimately the embrace of one's core self, Child of Glass explores the interplay between inner and outer and the journey we have to go on to be at home within ourselves.Child of Glass is about Gisele, a fragile, strong, transparent girl who denounces the meanness that can mark life in the world. In sparse, poetic language that all of us, however young or old, can understand, Child of Glass reminds us of our birthright to become ourselves. Freedom isn’t about accepting what is; it’s about asking the questions and taking the actions that allow us to be at home in the world.Beautifully illustrated in a painterly, drawn, and collaged style, this is a story of layers, textures, and transparencies in every sense. It is also a book that explores the possibilities of form to render idea, thereby providing connective tissue between the world of the book and life in the world.“To draw is to tell. Everyone who feels emotion has something to tel
