Sisällön kuvaus:
Among Tarot readers, the Thoth deck, designed by Aleister Crowley, is considered one of the most mysterious and difficult to use. Comparative mythology scholar Angeles Arrien uses this deck as the basis for an in-depth examination of the Tarot and its relation to the symbolism of the psyche. The result is far more than just a how-to guide; Arrien draws heavily from the writings of Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell, Marie-Louise Von Franz, Robert Bly, and others to create an ambitious overview of symbols--their origins, meanings, permutations, and relationship to each other in regards to the Tarot. This is also a great guidebook for how to read the cards. Arrien presents several of her own spreads (the pattern in which the cards are laid out) each dealing with issues such as self-esteem and relationships. Arrien is an intense and intelligent writer and this book may initially confound readers with no prior knowledge of the Tarot, numerology, or archetypal psychology. For anyone at all familiar with these realms, or interested and eager to learn more than just a parlor trick, this is a book to treasure.
