Liba Waring Stambollion "The Tree and The Tarot" Guidebook

Signed Edition! Modern Tarot is thought to be based on the Kabbalist Tree of Life. Yet the Tarot came out 100 years before the Kabbalistic Tree. So why are they so similar? The key is in the most ancient esoteric Hebrew system, the Sefer Yetzirah. This short text was examined, translated, and diffused during the early Renaissance and was used in both the Tarot and the later Kabbalist Tree. In this first book of the trilogy, you will find: A look at the Tarot’s historical origins, beginning with the first 15th-century decks to the 19th and 20th-century Golden Dawn decks. Insight into how the Sefer Yetzirah and other mystical systems affected the Tarot. A four-point perspective on each of the 22 major arcana: the Traditional, Qabbalist, Sefer Yetzirah, and Modern-day viewpoints. A system for understanding the minor arcana, which relies directly on the Sefer Yetzirah and Pythagorean numerology. This 200-page book is the perfect complement to the Dreams and Divinities Tarot and is illustrated with its paintings as well as 74 other beautiful illustrations.
