Dameon Keller - History of The Tarot and How to Create Your Own Deck...

A modern and informed true history of the Tarot. Dispelling myths and illuminating facts surrounding the utilization of the game of tarocchi for Cartomancy, spanning from the 14th Century Europe to modern incarnations of the modality. Includes examples and descriptions of numerous decks and systems, including an extensive study of Cagliostro's Egyptian Rite Masonry and Ettellia's advanced decks and spreads. A study of the original Golden Dawn system held in contrast to the later works of its individual members, combined with a return to Christian Mystical correlations results in a revealing look behind the veil."I maintain that this is an important, informative, and potentially disruptive book." - Jeremy Johnson
