Description

Based entirely on the adventures of Merlin, drawn directly from authentic twelfth-century sources, this is a modern restatement of a set of primal, powerful magical images which predate the earliest known set of Tarot cards by over 300 years. The Merlin Tarot includes The Merlin Tarot deck, illustrated by Miranda Gray, together with the Merlin Tarot handbook, R.J. Stewart's examination of the cards, their relationship to the cosmology and psychology of ancient Merlin texts, and their use in: meditation; vizualisation; and divination.

User reviews

LibraryThing member Drakhir
Not so good for divination, which is what your casual or shallow user is probably wanting, and thus feels disappointed.
Excellent for pathworking though, if you want something more powerful and subtle than just a way to impress your friends...
