Egyptian Oracle

[Sobek] [Udjet] The Egyptian Oracle is based on the symbols and myths of ancient Egypt. Maya Heath learned the outline of this divination system during a hypnotic regression. Through memory and research, she has worked to reconstruct it for modern use. The oracle includes 28 ceramic tiles. Each one has a hieroglyph at the top and assigned number on the lower left (the upside-down "U" = ten). In the lower right is a symbol for the tile's element group (fire, earth, air or water) and number within that group. The Sobek or Crocodile tile is number 18 and fourth in the water group (see left). A two-sided consultation board is used for readings. One side shows the twelve "houses" of this system, each ruled by a different god or goddess. The meaning of a tile is influenced by the house where it lands during a reading. The companion book The Egpytian Oracle by Heath explains how to use the tiles with the board and describes each tile and its meaning.
