Product Description:
Many students of the Western esoteric tradition consider Paul Foster Case's The Tarot the finest explanation that has yet appeared on the occult meaning of numbers, the construction of the Tarot, and the attribution of the 22 Major Trumps to the Hebrew alphabet.
In clear and understandable language, Case elucidates the Tarot tradition and technique for the modern thinker. Students of the Tarot will find in these pages the necessary information to understand and apply the principles of Tarot-and the correspondences of symbol, tone, color, and number-to the art of daily living. The author also includes extremely useful chapters on methods of study and Tarot divination.
In this 2006 edition, the book appears for the first time with an index and an appendix of resources. Here is a genuine underground masterpiece, made available to a broad new readership.

The book was printed in black and white. I wanted a version in color. The description did not explain that. I received the book in a very timely fashion. Many thanks.

I really like the book as it describes the images in the card. Hints by a tarot reader in the past,regarding these matters, but I was never given full details, therefore found this book particularly enlightening. Rachel Pollack does refer as to what to look for, but not in as much detail. The language rather old style, but that's ok.
