Venelestis Fructifera Botanical Oracle Deck is a deck that will convince you that you do not need to be a herbalist or a botanist to cultivate a deep relationship with plants and discover a mutual understanding between yourself and plant spirit guides.
It features 49 plants you are surely familiar with, as they guide us, help us, nourish us, and support us every day. They are fruits, vegetables, grains, spices, digestive herbs, and more, but all of them are allies we depend on daily for survival, comfort, and health.
Venelestis Fructifera invites you to view plant magic and working with plants through a fresh new lens and to realize that you are already a practitioner of plant medicine, even if you may not be aware of it.
The 7 customary companion cards are incests and aminal who participate in the cycle of life and nourishment, as pests and predators.

Venelestis Botanical Oracle Decks are tools for divination through relationship.
They are designed for people who don’t want meanings handed to them, but who want to build a personal symbolic language through attention, observation, and repeated encounters. Rather than fixed interpretations, the cards invite you into an ongoing conversation with plants as living presences, shaped by your experiences, questions, memories, and environment.
These decks are for diviners, herbalists, occult practitioners, artists, researchers, and curious minds who trust that meaning emerges through practice, not instruction. They work equally well for beginners and experienced readers, because the system grows with you.
What makes these decks differentBotany as a shared language: Each card carries the internationally recognized Latin name of the plant. This grounds the deck in a neutral, cross-cultural reference point, not a predefined esoteric system, allowing meaning to arise through your own research and lived experiences.
Illustrations meant to be recognized: The artwork is inspired by traditional botanical illustration, prioritizing clarity and recognizability over abstraction. These are plants you can learn to notice in the world, not just symbols on paper.
Curated, not coded: Each deck contains 56 cards: 49 core species and 7 companion cards. They are not arranged into archetypes or hierarchies. Patterns, themes, and relationships emerge through use, and through the way you choose to work with them.
Crafted with care: Printed on FSC-certified matte cardstock and produced locally in the Czech Republic, each deck reflects an intentional approach to material quality, sustainability, and longevity.
