Riassunto

The Merlin Tarot takes you back to a time of legend, fantasy and enchantment. Based entirely on the adventures of Merlin and drawn directly from authentic twelfth-century sources, this classic tarot is now available in a stunning new edition.

The Merlin Tarot brings to life a set of powerful magical images which predate the earliest known set of Tarot cards by over 300 years.

The images are superbly illustrated by Miranda Gray and the accessible and informative handbook by R. J. Stewart examines the cards and their relationship to ancient Merlin texts.

Dalla quarta di copertina

The Merlin Tarot is one of the most powerful and unusual tarot decks ever produced. Based entirely upon the magical and spiritual adventures of Merlin, and drawn from authentic sources dating from the twelfth century, it has been developed for modern use in meditation, visualisation and prediction. In 'The Complete Merlin Tarot', R.J.

For all users of the Merlin Tarot, this comprehensive volume will be an invaluable reference, providing complete details of all the cards – their key attributes, meanings and relationships, their power to mirror universal energies and reflect human situations – as well as an out line of the Merlin tradition as a whole.
