The images on the Marseille Tarot cards started out as
illustrations of Sumero-Bablyonian myths, preserved through the
centuries on cylinder seals. They were copied by people who didn't
understand them but who also had access to some form, whether
written or oral, of the wisdom encoded in those myths and in Bible
stories. That wisdom is identical with Sufi teachings as espoused
by teachers like Ibn al 'Arabi, Rumi, and others, including
Gurdjieff and his teachings about the enneagram. The myths and
stories are decoded in this book using the multiple meanings
conveyed by Arabic consonantal word roots and by reference to those
doctrines and to modern discoveries about conditioning and the
hemispheric specialization of the brain. Arabic is the closest
existing descendant of the ancient Protosemitic language. The
Kabbalah, long rumoured to be linked to the Tarot, is shown to come
from the same sources, and originally had eight, not ten, sefiroth.
The visual evidence alone is overwhelming: the mystery of where the
Tarot comes from has been definitively solved.
