The way she masterfully depicts animals is so deeply expressive, and in a way that feels raw, as they are, and not filtered through a human imagination.

Sawyer is a tattoo artist by trade and you see an American Traditional influence in her style– bold use of color, a strong emphasis on symbolism, and a timelessly-preserved-in-a-time-capsule vibe. I love the inclusion of several animals sacred or symbolically significant to East Asian culture: the bat, the cicada, the cow, the fox, the horse, the hummingbird, the panda, the praying mantis, the rabbit, the snake, the turtle– just to name a few. I also noticed that animals native to the different continents are all included, along with representation of land, sea, and sky, so even as an animal deck, it’s very inclusive.

I have a few other animal oracle decks that are just full of white wolves, bears, panthers, eagles, and crows, and while you get those here, too, you also get the caterpillar, the horseshoe crab, jellyfish, skunk, and wasp, etc. The first thing I noticed about the animals featured in Nature Portals is how many unsung heroes are here. The free companion journal is a 119-page full-color beautifully illustrated guidebook that labels what animals are depicted on each card, facts about each animal, keywords associated with that animal spirit, and then first-person insights into spiritual experiences with those particular animal spirits, written by both Jamie Sawyer and her mother, Gail Sawyer.

The deck also comes with a Nature Portals Companion Journal. click on image to visit Jamie Sawyer’s page I also love that Sawyer went with a more artistic box design, rather than it being too commercial-focused. You can really feel the intention of the portals transporting you to the animal world in that card back design. The cards are 100 mm in diameter, at 400 gsm cardstock, so there’s a noticeable sturdiness to them. The premise of the art is to capture a moment in that creature’s life, and allow us, an observer, to watch, listen, and to learn. Ooh…this is my first circle animal oracle deck! Jamie Sawyer’s Nature Portals is a 52-card circle deck that features open portals for looking into the life of animals, amphibians, insects, birds, and marine life.
