    Description

    This booklet is ideal for Christians who are unacquainted with the Tarot OR  for Tarot enthusiasts, who are not familiar with the deeper currents of Christian spirituality.
    This is a 12 page, full color "saddle stitched" booklet (8 pages + stapled self-cover , 8.5" X 5.5").  It is printed with an Ink-Jet printer on standard 20 lb. paper.
    NOTE:  The pictures are from an online printers' preview--the pink line does not appear on the printed copy.
    NOTE also
    that  while
    Meditations on the Tarot
    :
    A Journey into Christian Hermeticism
    is the primary inspiration behind the CMOTT booklet, the interpretations of the Tarot images contained in the booklet— while generally consistent with that work —sometimes diverge from those of
    our anonymous author.
    Note also that the Tarot Aces are not discussed in MOTT...
    The arrangement of Tarot images on the back cover of this booklet reflects an integral understanding of human existence that is extremely difficult to come by in our post-modern age.

    tableau
    of images—
    mere Tarot cards
    —is, in fact, a very intelligible
    map
    offering a unique point of entry into the moral and spiritual
    territory
    which is sought—namely, a realization of
    the Way, the Truth, and the Life
    (of which Jesus said) “
    I AM
    ”.
    Remembering
    our anonymous author’s
    caution to avoid trying to
    explain
    a symbol by “reducing it to a few general abstract ideas”, readers should approach the image captions and comments below (pages 1 – 5) as a collection of
    sacred keys
    — “not as an end but as the beginning of the way of knowledge”
    —
    so as to facilitate the aforementioned realization (
    Meditations on the Tarot
    174-175).
    As such, let us meditate on all the images in our
    tableau
    in an orderly fashion, beginning with
    The Lover…
