Le Tarot Astrologique
Update: Found that these cards were originally made some time between 1890 and 1917; I didn't know that the tax stamp of 1890 was only on the earliest cards. They were illustrated by Henri Armengol and the instructions were written by a young Georges Muchery (born in 1892) who became a known occultist, astrologer and author.
There are 48 cards, 12 Majors, planets, Sun, Moon, nodes, ascendant, and 36 Minors -- the 12 signs, each with 3 decans. As I worked on these treasures I was more and more captivated. Now, anxiously awaiting my proof copy from the printer. What do you think?

Cards are cards, just pieces of cardboard. What is important is the intent we give them.

The LWB is in French but I have persuaded a friend to help with the translation to English -- since I am unilingual and I suspect there are other English speakers who are, too.

Ordered! (And the Vanderborre Bacus, too!) Can't wait to get them now!
I was going to say in the collection thread that my collection list in my profile is all up to date, but now it's not! I guess it's over to the stork thread instead!
