Synopsis

There are many tarot sets on the market?but not one like this! The first thing you’ll notice about this unique book-and-card set is the deck’s square shape, which allows each card to be positioned facing not just two, but all four cardinal points of the compass: this provides readings of great depth and accuracy. Then, the original design eliminates the conventional human figures of the tarot, replacing them with mandala images that aid meditation. What’s more, the 22 major arcane signs are divided into three groups corresponding to the signs of the zodiac, the elements, and the planets. This spiritually aware approach to the tarot provides a remarkable new set of tools for understanding the forces that shape our lives.

About this title

From the Author:

Mandala Astrological Tarot is a unique synthesis
The Mandala Astrological Tarot is a unique synthesis of tarot and astrology. Its original artwork brings mandala magic to its potent symbolism of the ages. Even beginner's knowledge of astrology will enable you to swim the depths of ancient wisdom.

From the Back Cover:

Discover the meaning of past, present and future – an entirely new approach combining the art of astrology with the magic of Tarot.

Every tarot pack carries many layers of meaning, illustrated through the cards in a pictorial, symbolic language. 'The Mandala Astrological Tarot' is unusual in that it does not use human personifications, but instead portrays the tableaux of the Egyptian mystery temples with all their imagery and colour. Each of the 72 cards is presented as a circular mandala – an Eastern term for a consecrated place. Meditation upon any card enables the reader to discover the inner meaning of the mandala, to identify with the forces of the universe and contact their own psychic power.

These mandala are combined with the ancient psychological and archetypal language of astrology, which gives the tarot its structure. The two elements combine to form a tarot of unique vitality and power. The accompanying book explains the cards in a clear, accessible way, and the tarot as a whole offers an exceptionally attractive system that serves both as a method of divination, and as a stimulating meditation for anyone questing after a deeper understanding of life's processes.
