We’re closing out the season with something truly special.

In this final episode of The Natural Animal for 2025, I’m joined by bestselling illustrator, author and gardener Jessica Roux — the creative force behind the Woodland Wardens oracle deck, Floriography, and a whole world of nature-inspired art that celebrates the wisdom of animals and plants.

Jessica’s work feels like a love letter to the natural world. Her illustrations are rich with symbolism, story, and spirit — inviting us to see animals not just as beings, but as messengers.

This conversation is soft, soulful, and deeply rooted in reverence — for creativity, intuition, and the magic of the wild. We cover:

• The inspiration behind the Woodland Wardens oracle deck

• How animals and plants guide Jessica’s creative process

• The link between intuitive art and animal connection

• The symbolism woven into her animal–plant pairings

• How she balances soulful creativity with the practical side of being an artist

• What it means to honour animals as sacred beings through illustration

• Gentle ways to reconnect with nature and tune into animal wisdom

Whether you’re an animal lover, a card reader, a creative — or all of the above — this is a beautiful note to end the season on.
