The Twenty-Two Keys of Wisdom

Book excerpt: This study of the twenty-two Major Arcana of Aleister Crowley's set of Tarot cards gives an in-depth analysis of the meanings of each card. Hughes looks at the card as an individual yet also refers to its implications on the whole set and shows the reader how each card interlinks and carries on from the others. Furthermore she demonstrates their relevance to the evolution of mankind and the progression of each Aeon. With explanations of how the cards or archetypes operate within our own lives, Hughes also gives us the key to understanding our own behaviour and the next possible step in our development. An insightful read, this book is suitable for newcomers to the realm of the Tarot or someone with background knowledge of them.
