About this piece:
This is a reproduction print from a series of oracle imagery by Erika Karl. The original artwork for this piece was created with homemade black walnut ink on cold-press watercolor paper. Erika makes her own inks from ingredients found in her environment or with specific ingredients she seeks from other makers. Walnut ink gives a warmer tone than black inks.
Anima & Animus:
The concept of Anima & Animus reflects the soul, as inspired by Carl Jung’s psychological explorations. It symbolizes the union of the feminine and masculine energies present within us all, regardless of gender. Traditionally perceived as feminine, the Anima offers empathy and understanding while highlighting qualities such as intuition, emotional depth, and creativity. Conversely, the Animus emphasizes masculine energies such as rationality, courage, and determination while inspiring action and conviction. This card encourages a blend of these energies, symbolizing the balance and unity that is achieved when we acknowledge and accept all aspects of our being. For those who identify beyond the traditional binary, the Anima & Animus card is a celebration of the fluidity and diversity of the human spirit, offering a message of completeness and self-acceptance.
