ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Odete Lopes Mazza was born in Mozambique and has her roots in Goa, India. She currently lives in the Italian part of Switzerland (Ticino).
She comes from a long line of fortune tellers and astrologers spanning four generations, and began her journey into the world of fortune telling at the tender age of five with an ordinary deck of playing cards. In the following year, 1971, she was introduced to the “little French cards”, as her grandmother called the Petit Lenormand deck.
The author’s profound knowledge of symbols has led her to work and collaborate with several writers and archeologists on various projects. In Italy, she published two best-sellers (Hermes Edizione-Roma): L'Oracolo della Vera Sibilla Italiana (1999) and L'Oracolo di Mademoiselle Lenormand (2001). She also wrote two books under the pseudonym Sheyla as a tribute to her grandmother.
In 2015, Odete Lopes Mazza published the book Baralho Petit Lenormand, Introdução às Combinações (CapitalBooks) and co-authored the deck Sybil of the Heart with the renowned Italian historian and writer Giordano Berti. Also in 2015, she published the Grand Tableau kit.
She is the founder and administrator of the Fórum Místico Lusitano (2017). Her book, A Bíblia do Baralho Petit Lenormand, published by Farol, was released in Portugal in 2021. After its success, the book has been translated into Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and now English.
