Well, the book does not seem to be by Crowley, rather inspired and approved, whatever that means. The illustrations are by one of Crowley's acolytes and artists, and they are impressive in and of themselves. But the text is very brief and infused with lots of "High Magick" kind of stuff. Almost like Monty Python - "And now for something completely different..." ( ) Brilliantly beautiful with descriptions dictated to artist Lady Frieda Harris and approved on every level and every step along the way by Crowley himself. Amateurs will not understand that the symbolism in these cards are arguably the most complicated and true to the Kabbalistic roots of anyTarot deck. If you are an occultist on any level, just having the artwork is reward in itself. Suggest anyone serious about learning about the cards get Lon Milo DuQuette's book "Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot" from Weiser. Some of the reviews are "interesting". Rather on par with one that I read some time ago when I was looking up cataloging information for another title. It said something to the effect that "I 'broadly' categorize my books and then arrange them by color because then my shelves 'look like a rainbow' ". I guess one has to admire the "creativity"? i have to say there's always been something a little off-putting about Crowley for me--don't know if it's been the Masonic thing, the Satanic thing, or some kind of residual male chauvinist (sense) thing but my friend had this deck and i liked the look of the imagery and so i had to get my own and the imagery is pretty cool (and you know the whole Golden Dawn thing birthed Rider-Waite as well) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
