ORACLE "Ars Goetia" (special edition)

ORACLE of ARS GOETIA THE 72 SPIRITS REIMAGINED BY WOTAN An oracle dedicated to one of the most enigmatic traditions of Western ceremonial lore. Oracle of Ars Goetia presents the 72 spirits of the Goetia through an original artistic interpretation, transforming an ancient system of names, hierarchies and symbols into a complete visual oracle created for contemporary collectors and readers. Each spirit has been developed as a distinct presence — with its own visual identity, symbolic language, character and recognizable attributes. This is not a reproduction of an old manuscript. It is WOTAN's artistic interpretation of the Goetic tradition. THE 72 SPIRITS The oracle contains 72 fully illustrated spirit cards, each dedicated to one of the spirits traditionally associated with the Goetia. The cards are created in a distinctive 90 × 120 mm format, giving the artwork a substantial presence while maintaining the intimate character of an oracle deck. Each spirit has been developed individually rather than treated as one of a series of interchangeable figures. Distinctive attributes, symbolic elements and visual characteristics allow each spirit to remain recognizable throughout the collection. The result is a visual catalogue of 72 distinct identities within one coherent world. THE FIRST 50 — A SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S EDITION The first 50 decks of the edition include 5 additional Key Cards created specifically for the collection. These cards are not part of the standard 72-card oracle. They are an additional collector's element, included only with the first 50 decks of the edition. Once these first 50 editions are gone, subsequent editions will contain the standard 72-card oracle without these five additional Key Cards. For collectors, this makes the first 50 decks a distinct chapter in the history of Oracle of Ars Goetia. A COMPLETE COLLECTOR'S SET Your Oracle of Ars Goetia includes: 72 Spirit Cards A complete collection of the 72 spirits, each with original artwork and an individual visual identity. 5 Additional Key Cards — First 50 Editions Only A special supplementary set created exclusively for the first 50 decks. Full-Color Guidebook A dedicated illustrated guidebook accompanying the oracle and providing the meanings and interpretations created for the collection. Velvet Card Pouch A soft velvet pouch bearing the WOTAN mark, created to protect the cards and complement the ceremonial character of the deck. Signature Magnetic Presentation Box A substantial presentation box created specifically for the collection, designed to turn the oracle into a complete presentation object rather than simply a deck of cards. CREATED AS AN OBJECT OF COLLECTION The physical experience of Oracle of Ars Goetia was considered as carefully as the artwork itself. The 90 × 120 mm cards have a distinctive presence in the hand, while the combination of carefully selected materials, tactile surfaces and luminous details gives the collection a sense of depth and refinement. Subtle contrasts between dark surfaces and illuminated details allow elements of the artwork to emerge as the cards move through the light. The presentation box, velvet pouch and guidebook complete the experience, creating a collection designed to feel substantial from the moment it is opened. The result is an oracle that feels closer to a small-batch art edition than to a conventional mass-market deck. A VISUAL LANGUAGE OF THE GOETIA One of the defining ideas behind the oracle is that every spirit should be recognizable beyond its name. The collection therefore develops a visual vocabulary of recurring attributes, symbolic details and distinctive characteristics. Animal forms, crowns, weapons, celestial references, garments, gestures and other elements become part of each spirit's identity. These details create a visual hierarchy throughout the deck, allowing the collection to be explored almost like an illustrated bestiary or an occult catalogue. The more closely the cards are studied, the more details reveal themselves. FROM MANUSCRIPT TO ART OBJECT The Goetia has survived through manuscripts, reproductions and interpretations across generations. WOTAN approaches this tradition not as a historical reproduction, but as an artistic source. Ancient names and descriptions become the foundation for a new visual language. Historical associations are reimagined through composition, symbolism and character design, creating a collection that feels connected to the tradition while remaining unmistakably contemporary. The result is an oracle that occupies the space between occult reference, symbolic artwork and collectible object. EVERY EDITION IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT WOTAN collections are produced in small batches rather than continuous mass production. With each new edition, the artwork may return to the studio for subtle authorial refinements. A spirit may receive an additional symbolic detail. An attribute may be refined. A composition may evolve. A visual element may be newly introduced. These changes are intentionally subtle and remain faithful to the identity of each spirit and to the overall language of the collection. Because of this, a new edition is not simply an identical reprint. Each edition represents another stage in the artistic development of the oracle. For collectors, this means that different editions can carry their own small visual distinctions — making each one a particular chapter in the continuing evolution of Oracle of Ars Goetia. MORE THAN AN ORACLE Oracle of Ars Goetia was created to be experienced on several levels. It can be used as an oracle for personal readings and symbolic reflection. It can be studied as an artistic interpretation of the 72 spirits. It can be displayed as a collection of dark symbolic artworks. And it can be preserved as a collector's object for anyone fascinated by the history, imagery and enduring mystery surrounding the Goetic tradition. Each card is a doorway into a different identity. Each spirit carries its own visual language. Together, the 72 cards form one complete world. CREATED FOR COLLECTORS OF THE UNUSUAL Oracle of Ars Goetia was created for collectors who are drawn to occult history, symbolic art, dark aesthetics and unusual interpretations of traditional systems. For those who want more than a generic oracle deck. For those who appreciate recognizable characters, layered symbolism and artwork that rewards close observation. For those who collect objects with a story behind them.
