Conventional wisdom traces Tarot cards to medieval Italy, but their
roots go back much further in time and draw on a surprisingly rich
variety of cultures and spiritual traditions. Combining pioneering
scholarship with practical spiritual instruction, "Origins of the
Tarot" is the first book to unveil the full range of the ancient
streams of wisdom from which the Tarot emerged.The timeless
principles of conscious realization and cosmological unfoldment
underlying the Tarot have never been explored in a comparably
extensive and detailed way: herein the teachings of a tremendous
range of traditions, including Kabbalah, Western esotericism and
alchemy, Buddhism, Taoism, yogic disciplines, Sufism, mystical
Christianity, Gnosticism, and Neoplatonism, are masterfully
incorporated and synthesized.Author Dai Leon explores a confluence
of philosophical schools from East and West as they relate to the
Tarot, giving each its due in the exposition of a universal
procession of evolution and the soul's quest for enlightenment. In
the process, the Tarot is seen as a unique exemplification of
perennial teachings on the soul and its liberation, as well as a
still-unfolding window into concealed currents of human history.
The book's profound learning and unprecedented range of references
are sure to attract close study among students both of the world's
most enduring esoteric tradition and of esotericism itself.
