The 4Ws, 1H of reporting
What: The creation and independent publication of The Filipino Diwata Oracle Cards (The Filipino DOC), a 44-card deck of gods and goddesses from the multi-regional pantheon in the Philippines + the guidebook + box. A Diwata, in Tagalog, refers to either a male or female deity; hence, Diwata is an all-purpose unisex term, representative of how the Filipino language is naturally gender-inclusive and gender-neutral.
How your support will help us: This will be the only Filipino-based oracle card deck which combines Philippine mythology, the ancient pre-colonial script Baybayin to spell the gods' and goddesses' names, and old Filipino proverbs as the major part of the oracle content.
Where the funds will go: Further research for the guidebook, payment of my co-creators Leandro and Leo, the cost of independently publishing the oracle decks, marketing and promotion
When we need the funds: By Nov. 30, 2018
Who: 1.>writer-researcher: Blesilda Carmona 2> illustrator: my husband Leandro De La Rosa 3>Baybayin speller: Gat Leo Emmanuel Castro
