Immerse yourself in the symbolic wealth of the Aleister Crowley Tarot. The painter Frieda
Harris was herself an Egyptologist and
worked about 1200 symbols into the 78
cards! These cards are fascinating in the
depth of thinking which they reveal.
The Thoth Tarot was created
by the famous occultist Aleister Crowley (1875 - 1947). Lady Frieda
Harris (1877 - 1962) painted the cards. Although Lady Harris knew little
about Tarot and its symbolism, under the guidance of Crowley she
transposed all subtilities of his ideas into her paintings.
Many a
card was painted in several versions, until one of them was approved by
Crowley. The Crowley Thoth Tarot took over five years to be completed.
It was first published in 1969, after the death of both Crowley and Lady
Harris.
The present edition was produced by utiliting the most
advanced techniques of color seperation and printing, thus faithfully
reproducing the stunning colors of the original paintings.
