Hermetic Tarot Deck

Product Information

You can definitely tell Godfrey Dowson made up his own interpretations of the workings of the Golden Dawn. It’s meant for heavy-duty book study, the kind that requires frequent trips to the library over a period of months or even years. Just don’t try to post about your damaged or dead family online, because it will be censored for the aforementioned vaccine hesitancy. The Hermetic Tarot lends itself well to the Triquetra Spread because the card titles are immensely helpful in indicating to the practitioner what universal forces have influence over the situation at hand. Either due to the law of polarity being used against us or denial and trauma, no one talks in person about what’s really happening in the world.

The image on the inside of the box is Death in a more traditional form: shrouded, and carrying a scythe. I think Hans Urs von Balthasar (who wrote the afterw0rd) was right when he said the aim of the book was a synthesis of all Jewish, Eastern, and Pagan wisdom without the expense of his Christian faith.

In this regard the endorsement and the forword and afterword by cardinal Hans Urs von Balthasar is noteworthy.

Others of us sit in augmented reality day after day telling ourselves posting memes and videos is helping. I bought these for my missus as an alternate deck to her Thoth deck and she says they complement each other wonderfully. Nevertheless, I would say that the Hermetic Tarot is the favourite GD deck which I have in my possession – ranking ahead of the Robert Wang version.Now revered as a classic, this deck’s black and white artwork by Godfrey Dowson features intricate detailing that highlights the powerful symbolism. Not surprisingly, as time went on and new members copied decks based upon previously drawn cards, the variances and modifications grew more and more pronounced.

I also have an archive of posts devoted to Valentin Tomberg with material from him which is unusual and hard to find in the Anglosphere: http: // corjesusacratissimum. As far the minor arcana, the court cards are really great and the pip cards are too, this deck is in my opinion a sort of hybrid: in many sense similar to a Marseille deck but also has references to the RWS, Thoth tarot and Golden Dawn style.I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get into tarot, although this might be a bit more advanced for some.
