The enigmatic and richly illustrative tarot deck reveals a host
of strange and iconic mages, such as The Tower, The Wheel of
Fortune, The Hanged Man and The Fool: over which loom the
terrifying figures of Death and The Devil. The 21 numbered playing
cards of tarot have always exerted strong fascination, way beyond
their original purpose, and the multiple resonances of the deck are
ubiquitous. From T. S. Eliot and his "wicked pack of cards" in "The
Waste Land" to the psychic divination of Solitaire in Ian Fleming's
"Live and Let Die"; and from the satanic novels of Dennis Wheatley
to the deck's adoption by New Age practitioners, the cards have in
modern times become inseparably connected to the occult. They are
now viewed as arguably the foremost medium of prophesying and
foretelling. Yet, as the author shows, originally the tarot were
used as recreational playing cards by the Italian nobility in the
Renaissance. It was only much later, in the 18th and 19th
centuries, that the deck became associated with esotericism before
evolving finally into a diagnostic tool for mind, body and spirit.
This is the first book to explore the remarkably varied ways in
which tarot has influenced culture. Tracing the changing patterns
of the deck's use, from game to mysterious oracular device, Helen
Farley examines tarot's emergence in 15th century Milan and
discusses its later associations with astrology, kabbalah and the
Age of Aquarius.
