O Oraculo do Passado, do presente e do Futuro (6/7) by Bento Serrano
The Oracle of Magic, the magic mirror of the dwarf, offers to reveal the secrets of past, present, and future, part of a seven-fold work of astrology and divination.
Bento Serrano's 1883 book, part of a Portuguese oracle-and-fortune-telling series, blends folklore, magic, and popular divination. Curious, atmospheric period fantasy. Read it for a window onto nineteenth-century Portuguese popular occultism, the sixth part of an astrologer's guide to the hidden arts.
