Peter Occhiogrosso

The inspiration for this deck of 50 cards derived from Peter Occhiogrosso’s study of the healing wisdom from the world’s spiritual traditions. Working with renowned teacher and author Caroline Myss, he extracted insights and direct quotations from the sacred writings of Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, Native American and other traditions. This healing wisdom is part of the universal spring of mystical insight that all the great traditions have in common, and that transcends sectarian beliefs and dogma. Caroline created a brief suggestion for applying each of these healing wisdom insights in everyday life, in a form designed to heal whatever aspect of your life you choose to address. The healing wisdom appears on the front of each card, the practical application on the reverse. The cards come with a booklet that Peter wrote to explain and elaborate upon the source of each card’s healing wisdom.

 

The cards, featuring the artwork of master illustrator Janice Fried, are produced and distributed by Hay House, Inc., and have remained in print continuously since 2003. A media company has produced a mobile app that puts the cards at your fingertips. The fully illustrated front and back of each card is included in the app along with the complete text of the booklet that accompanies the original deck. That text explains the provenance of each card's healing wisdom, including sourcebooks for further reading, along with Peter’s own insights into the universal mystical wisdom that Aldous Huxley called the “Perennial Philosophy.”
