The ubiquitous, ambiguous, twilight world of fairy. More then a fairy story, more than a dream, this deck is a fascinating journey into love and the epic, into pain and fear, into the deepest magical roots of all human emotion. The masterful art of Raffaele De Angelis opens the gate and allows us to glimpse a little of the fairy realm.

Illustrated. "The Pictorial Key to the Tarot" is Waite's
influential guide to Tarot symbolism, first published in England in
1910. While Waite was an occultist, he was very much concerned with
the accuracy of the symbols he used for his deck and he did much
research into the traditions, interpretations and history behind
the cards. The book is divided into three parts. Part I is a short
overview of the traditional symbols associated with each card,
followed by a history of the Tarot. Part II contains 78 black and
white plates of the Rider-Waite-Smith Deck and a discussion of the
unique symbols chosen for each card. Part III concerns matters of
divination with the cards, including a description of the famous
Celtic Cross Tarot layout, which the book helped to popularize.
This editions contains additional material, including a chapter on
Waite's subsequent thoughts on the Tarot and a new introduction by
Gertrude Moakley.

In TAROLOGY Enrique Enriquez sees the Tarot de Marseille through
the prism and science of pataphysics, the science of imaginary
solutions. By following into the footsteps of Oulipian writers, he
applies the idea of constraint and the rule of restriction to the
surprisingly visual and gestural nature of Tarot. The result is not
only illuminating but also enriching for all those interested in
the history of Tarot and its divinatory practices. Enriquez
develops a whole new method of reading cards, which combines
careful considerations of chance with choice. By using a
phenomenological and constructivist approach to the cards, Enriquez
shows how the Tarot de Marseille speaks poetry and thus reveals
some of our deepest concerns with language, with what we can say
when we are at a loss for words. --- "In TAROLOGY, going from
pataphysics to poetry, Enrique Enriquez PERFORMS tarot in a way
that is marvelously free of cultural preconditioning to the
workings of myth and symbol, while at the same time proposing
following the rules of 'watch and learn', 'keep it simple', 'stay
on track', 'be surprised', 'be fearless', and 'let the image talk
the walk'. This is no small achievement." (Camelia Elias, Professor
of American Studies and Tarot de Marseille Reader)
Tarot has never been so interesting and easy to use. This vibrant

2011 Reprint of 1911 Edition. Arthur Edward Waite (1857-1942) was a
scholarly mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric
matters, and was the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. As
his biographer, R.A. Gilbert described him, "Waite's name has
survived because he was the first to attempt a systematic study of
the history of western occultism - viewed as a spiritual tradition
rather than as aspects of proto-science or as the pathology of
religion." "The Book of Ceremonial Magic" is the second edition of
a work which in its first edition was titled, more provocatively,
"The Book of Black Magic and of Pacts." It is an attempt to
synthesize the procedures of all of the famous Grimoires. It draws
on the "Key of Solomon," the "Grimorium Verum," the apocryphal
Fourth Book of Cornelius Agrippa, and many others, including the
famous "Black Pullet," or "Poulet Noir." The result is an
unparalleled look at the details of ceremonial magic.
Combining 20th-century physics, astronomy and quantum mechanics with the traditional archetypes of a tarot deck, this theoretical investigation lends poetic expression to extraordinary scientific theory. With gorgeous illustrations that offer a new glimpse of the universe, the accompanying cards offer both wonderful meditation images and basic tarot functionality. This fascinating analysis examines how the most important theories in modern physics play out in two extreme worlds - the vast expanses of the universe and the strange, invisible world inside the atom itself.
Healers, visionaries, advisers, intermediaries between the
physical and spirit worlds--shamans have played a variety of roles
throughout the ages. This unique tarot--built upon a multicultural
mosaic of spiritual traditions--can put you in touch with a vast
collection of shamanic wisdom for guidance in the modern world.
"American-born British author and master of esoterica ARTHUR EDWARD
WAITE (18571942) was cocreator of the famous 1910 Rider-Waite Tarot
deck, and in 1911, he published what is still an essential guide to
unleashing the prognosticatory power of the cards. Discover the
history of the tarot, the secret traditions that inform it, andmost
vitallydetailed explanations of each of the cards in the tarot deck
and what they signify, including: the High Priestess (and what the
scroll in her hand represents) the Lovers (and what mythological
couple they evoke) the Wheel of Fortune (and what dangers it
implies) the Hanged Man (and the significance of the tree of
sacrifice) and all the rest of the cards. Complete with all the
illustrations from the original 1911 edition, this information and
entertaining work will delight anyone interested in the tarot, in
mythological symbology, and everything arcane."
Roberto De Angelis re-interprets the icons of the most famous deck using modern style and graphics. Faithful to the esoteric symbolism adopted at the beginning of the twentieth century by the greatest English occultists, each Arcana is interpreted through a precise pictorial key, offering immediacy and depth to the divination. Each card is imprinted with gold bringing a lavish and decadent feel to the deck. 78 full colour cards with Gold foil impressions and instruction booklet
The drawings in the tarot deck by Karen Vogel and Vicki Noble
reflect Goddess and earth-based cultures from all over the world
and throughout history. Set is complete with the Mini Motherpeace
Tarot and Motherpeace Tarot Guidebook. Vogel's own reflection on
the meaning and use of the cards is described as "a fundamental
healing process for reaching beyond the limitations of gender roles
found in our society".
Intuitive Tarot, tools for consciousness, is not a book about
tarot, but a unique and practical manual for using the Aleister
Crowley cards as a tool for bringing consciousness into daily life.
Mangala Billson's descriptions of the cards are coloured by her
studies in psychology and many years of therapeutic and meditation
practice. Consequently the meanings are brought up to date with
twenty-first century language and a keen clarity into the way the
contemporary mind functions. The layouts taught are unique spreads
found only in this book. They are designed to stimulate the
intuition and promote a deeper reading and understanding of the
whole being. Intuitive Tarot is presented in an original way that
supports beginners by allowing them to give accurate readings from
the very start of their learning. At the same time it can provide
an invaluable added dimension to the skills of established readers.
The approach focuses on bringing awareness to the individual psyche
while also dealing with everyday life situations and relationships.
