About This Book

A comprehensive manual treats the Tarot in three parts: a historical and antiquarian survey situating the cards within occult traditions; an exposition of inner symbolism and secret tradition that elucidates the Greater Arcana and their esoteric meanings; and a practical section that explains the Lesser Arcana, the four suits, and methods of divination. The author harmonizes meanings from published sources, presents a simplified, broadly applicable reading method alongside alternative layouts and a thirty-five-card system, and supplies black-and-white card designs with attributions. A concise bibliography and references round out the instructional material.
