Words of wisdom with a sense of humour!
So, what’s with the Zoltar?
Well… when we finished renovating and opened up the Oracle at Sechelt in 2012, a friend mentioned that ‘now all I needed was a Zoltar’.
I don’t know if she was serious or just kidding, but it planted a seed that grew until I just had to do it!
I believe that life should be lived in joy, and with that comes a sense of humour.
Zoltar is just that – he’s a funny guy with a mechanical jaw that spouts tongue-in-cheek words of wisdom.
With a low rumbling voice and rolling eyes, he brings carnival corny fun to his prophecies. He softens the hard edge of taking ourselves too seriously.
Zoltar hails from south of the border, Las Vegas to be exact (of course!). He has spent time in the Whistler and West Van Oracles and currently holds his court in Sechelt.
One of the BEST things about our Zoltar is that he is quite a philanthropist. Since 2018 his funds have been designated to the Oracles Be the Change Scholarships offered to his hometown high schools – currently Chatelech Secondary and the Sunshine Coast Alternative School. Any additional funds are combined with sales from the ‘Be the Change Cards’ and ‘Be the Change for Kids Cards’ to assist children in either Mexico or Bali – depending on the need (there is always a need – we know – but sometimes it’s greater in one place than the other due to unexpected circumstances, or someone else has made a contribution and lessened the urgency).
You’ll find more out about his philanthropical endeavours here.
