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.

The Art of Fine Gifts: The tarot cards in this pack are adapted
from a Tarot of Marseille deck by Nicolas Conver that dates to
1760. It was one of the earliest confirmed decks and has been
beautifully reproduced here. The Major and Minor Arcana cards are
accompanied by an informative booklet, which gives a history of
tarot, information on each card and a step-by-step guide to get
started with a tarot reading.
Paul Foster Case was an American occultist of the early 20th
century and author of numerous books on occult tarot and Qabalah.
Perhaps his greatest contributions to the field of occultism were
the lessons he wrote for associate members of Builders of the
Adytum. The Knowledge Lectures given to initiated members of the
Chapters of the B.O.T.A. were equally profound, although the
limited distribution has made them less well known. Case was early
on attracted to the occult. While still a child he reported
experiences that today are called lucid dreaming. He corresponded
about these experiences with Rudyard Kipling who encouraged him as
to the validity of his paranormal pursuits. In the year 1900, Case
met the occultist Claude Bragdon while both were performing at a
charity performance. Bragdon asked Case what he thought the origin
of playing cards was. After pursuing the question in his father's
library, Case discovered a link to tarot, called 'The Game of Man,
' thus began what would become Case's lifelong study of the tarot,
and leading to the creation of the B.O.T.A. tarot deck, a
"corrected" version of the Rider-Waite cards. Between 1905 and 1908
(aged 20-24), Case began practicing yoga, and in particular
pranayama, from what published sources were available. His early
experiences appear to have caused him some mental and emotional
difficulties and left him with a lifelong concern that so called
"occult" practice be done with proper guidance and training.
