Tarot Roundup

BY: Mark

A couple of things I’ve run across this week while attempting to keep up with other projects.

Alternate Thoth Tarot Cards: Lady Frieda Harris was the artist of Crowley’s Thoth Deck. Caduceus Books has a page linking out to images of some alternate versions of the cards which have been in a private collection for many years.

‘Projective Synthetic Geometry in Lady Frieda Harris’ Tarot Paintings and in Aleister Crowley’s Book of the Law‘ by Claas Hoffmann: Yes, I know, and no, there isn’t an easier way to describe the article. Except to say “harmonic collage,” which is probably equally a head-scratcher.

Mary K. Greer on Jung and Tarot: Ms. Greer runs through the data articulating Jung’s awareness of the Tarot, and includes his descriptions of the Major Arcana. Plus, Mary K. Greer has a Tarot blog. Bonus!
