This book situates Tarot in its ancient roots, with particular emphasis on the tradition of the Mystery Schools. The suites are designated as "Earth, Water, Air and Fire" rather than the conventional Pentacles, Cups, Swords and Wands. The first part of the book is a review of the ancient sources of Tarot and the dynamics of the archetypes, with interesting sidelights on the author's personal experiences in this realm. The reader is instructed by The Magician, The Priestess and The Hermit about the meanings and wisdom of Tarot, which he discovers to be a "Book of Truth."
