follows the adventures of The Metabaron. This volume collects the
entire Second Cycle of The Metabarons in one paperback edition.

warrior. This collection introduces the history of the Metabarons
and reveals the origins of their deep-seated principles, their vast
wealth, their cybernetic implants, and their most brutal custom:
that the only way for a son to become the next Metabaron is to slay
his own father in mortal combat. Follow generations of Metabarons
as they struggle to overcome the forces amassed against them in a
galaxy corrupted by greed, power, and terror.
This edition completes the hardcover release of The Metabarons:
Second Cycle, and is a limited printing for those who wish to
complete the book in hardcover form. The return of the greatest
warrior in the universe: The Metabaron! The Metabaron character was
created by legendary artist Moebius and writer Alejandro Jodorowsky

bestselling series, The Metabarons, with art by Juan Gimenez. The
new series The Metabaron is a collaboration between Alejandro
Jodorowsky and Jerry Frissen, exhibiting the work of talented
artists including Valentin Secher, Niko Henrichon, and Pete Woods.
Writer/director/ producer David S. Goyer (Man of Steel, Batman v
Superman: Dawn of Justice) called The Metabarons: “The greatest
work of graphic fiction ever produced,” and it has sold millions
of copies globally.
Filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky's insights into the Tarot as a
spiritual path
- Works with the original Marseille Tarot to reveal the roots of
Western wisdom
- Provides the key to the symbolic language of the Tarot's "nomadic
cathedral"
- Transforms a simple divination tool into a vehicle for
self-realization and healing
Alejandro Jodorowsky's profound study of the Tarot, which began in
the early 1950s, reveals it to be far more than a simple divination
device. The Tarot is first and foremost a powerful instrument of
self-knowledge and a representation of the structure of the soul.
"The Way of Tarot" shows that the entire deck is structured like a
temple, or a mandala, which is both an image of the world and a
representation of the divine. The authors use the sacred art of the
original Marseille Tarot--created during a time of religious
tolerance in the 11th century--to reconnect with the roots of the
Tarot's Western esoteric wisdom. They explain that the Tarot is a
"nomadic cathedral" whose parts--the 78 cards or "arcana"--should
always be viewed with an awareness of the whole structure. This
understanding is essential to fully grasp the Tarot's hermetic
symbolism.
The authors explore the secret associations behind the hierarchy of
the cards and the correspondences between the suits and energies
within human beings. Each description of the Major Arcana includes
key word summaries, symbolic meanings, traditional interpretations,
and a section where the card speaks for itself. Jodorowsky and
Costa then take the art of reading the Tarot to a depth never
before possible. Using their work with Tarology, a new
psychological approach that uses the symbolism and optical language
of the Tarot to create a mirror image of the personality, they
offer a powerful tool for self-realization, creativity, and
healing.

collaborator. Albino, hero of this space odyssey, remembers here
his childhood, his apprenticeship, and the big and small battles he

cruelty and the barbarism of the forces controlling it. This

A healing path using the power of dreams, theater, poetry, and
shamanism
- Shows how psychological realizations can cause true
transformation when manifested by concrete poetic acts
- Includes many examples of the surreal but successful actions
Jodorowsky has prescribed to those seeking his help
While living in Mexico, Alejandro Jodorowsky became familiar with
the colorful and effective cures provided by folk healers. He
realized that it is easier for the unconscious to understand the
language of dreams than that of rationality. Illness can even be
seen as a physical dream that reveals unresolved emotional and
psychological problems.
"Psychomagic" presents the shamanic and genealogical principles
Jodorowsky discovered to create a healing therapy that could use
the powers of dreams, art, and theater to empower individuals to
heal wounds that in some cases had traveled through generations.
The concrete and often surreal poetic actions Jodorowsky employs
are part of an elaborate strategy intended to break apart the
dysfunctional persona with whom the patient identifies in order to
connect with a deeper self. That is when true transformation can
manifest.
For a young man who complained that he lived only in his head and
was unable to grab hold of reality and advance toward the financial
autonomy he desired, Jodorowsky gave the prescription to paste two
gold coins to the soles of his shoes so that all day he would be
walking on gold. A judge whose vanity was ruling his every move was
given the task of dressing like a tramp and begging outside one of
the fashionable restaurants he loved to frequent while pulling
glass doll eyes out of his pockets. The lesson for him was that if
a tramp can fill his pockets with eyeballs, then they must be of no
value, and thus the eyes of others should have no bearing on who
you are and what you do. Taking his patients directly at their
words, Jodorowsky takes the same elements associated with a
negative emotional charge and recasts them in an action that will
make them positive and enable them to pay the psychological debts
hindering their lives.
