Herodotus
The Esoteric Tarot: Ancient Sources Rediscovered in Hermeticism and Cabalah, by Ronald Decker.
Is anyone familiar with this book? It piqued my interest when I saw it on amazon, but I'm surprised to find no trace of it mentioned here (I admit, I did not go through ALL of the threads..).
I have one other book by this author, which is the companion text to the Medieval Scapini deck called Art and Arcana. I found it to be well-written and informative, and it left me with the notion that Decker knows his occult Tarot and Tarot history pretty thoroughly, despite having the limited space of a companion book to expound upon it.
I'm aware that he's written other books, some of which were collaborative efforts with other experts in the field, and judging by reviews these are all fairly well-received.
So I reiterate, has anyone read this book? Any thoughts?
Thanks,
- Herodotus.
