Le Tarot Astrologique

Post by Tag Jorrit »

Update: Found that these cards were originally made some time between 1890 and 1917; I didn't know that the tax stamp of 1890 was only on the earliest cards.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?

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. :P :roll:

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!
