Ancient Minoans meet modern Tarot in this unique, vibrant 86-card
deck and guidebook that call on archetypes of Tarot through
iconography of a civilization that flourished two millennia before
the advent of Christianity. Using the Minoan palette from the ruins
of the temple complexes and cities, the artwork was created
entirely by hand, inspired by beautiful works of art from ancient
Crete. Connect with the mysterious snake priestesses, labyrinthine
temple complexes, and courageous bull-leapers. Explore
gender-balanced face cards reflecting the egalitarian nature of
Minoan society that makes this deck especially relevant for modern
users: Priest and Priestess, Lord and Lady, Youth and Maid. Each
card displays symbols from an ancient writing system and keywords
reflecting literal image concepts or pointing to deeper meanings.
This deck and comprehensive guidebook can also be used for
meditation and personal growth. Experienced or new readers will
find The Minoan Tarot a natural tool. Includes cards and book.
This is a true story of the journey across ten centuries in search
for the meaning behind the mysteries of fears, joys, and emotions
the author experienced during this life. The vehicle is not from
science fiction but deep within the recesses of the eternal
cellular memories within us. We begin to understand the common
threads that had an impact on his current life. A journey into the
past in order to understand today. During the journey he confronted
his spiritual history and the patterns revealed helped him
understand the why's of his life and the reasons for the people in
his current life who have been most important to him.
'I cannot afford to be a participator, by passiveness in such
stupendous and widespread wrongs as I perceive are being abundantly
inflicted upon the African race. Hence my appeal...to the British
Queen and Government...that "Africa for the African" be made a
reality as far as each has the power to bring it about.' Joseph
Booth penned his appeal in 1897 in protest of the racist
stereotpying of the Africans by the colonisers; and witnessing the
unjust and inhumane exploitation of the native peoples, for the
sole benefit of the Europeans. He drew his ideas from the social
and political messages he inferred from the Gospel and his appeal
was published only thirteen years after European leaders met in
Berlin to divide up the African continent. The book, which was not
welcomed by the colonial government in Malawi was first published
in 1897 in the US and is now republished in Malawi. Laura Perry
reproduced the text of Booth's second edition, compared it to the
first edition and added explanatory footnotes.
