The Faery Forest: An Oracle of the Wild Green World is a 45-card oracle deck, each card measuring approximately 3.75 x 5.45 inches, in a 4.875 x 6.75-inch box, created by author Lucy Cavendish with artwork by illustrator Maxine Gadd.
Oracle card reading is a long-practiced personal and interpretive reflection technique in which drawn cards are read by the person doing the reading; its outcomes are a matter of personal belief and interpretation rather than a scientifically proven predictive method, and we're describing it in those terms rather than presenting it as a verified effect. Many people find value in the practice as a structured way to reflect on a question and access their own intuition, whether or not a card draw reflects anything beyond chance, symbolism, and interpretation. A quiet moment to center yourself before shuffling is generally recommended, since a calmer, more focused mindset tends to produce a more thoughtful reading. Some readers also keep a dedicated journal alongside their deck, since comparing notes across multiple readings over time often reveals more useful patterns than any single draw on its own.
This deck's earth-rooted cast of Goddesses, Gods, Faeries, Witches, Wise Ones, and Wyzards is original creative work, and we're naming both credited creators directly: the guided journey by Lucy Cavendish, the nature-rich paintings by Maxine Gadd.
The included 136-page illustrated guidebook offers clear instructions ideal for first-time readers, while the sensual, nature-rich artwork gives experienced readers a distinctive deck to deepen their connection with nature's rhythms.
