Using mythology, art, and psychology, the author takes you through the Major Arcana in its aspect as a journey toward self realization and an exploration of Jungian archetypes.

Highly innovative work presenting a piercing interpretation of the tarot in terms of Jungian psychology. Through analogy with the humanities, mythology and the graphic arts, the significance of the cards is related to personal growth and individuation. The major arcana becomes a map of life, and the hero's journey becomes something that each individual can relate to the symbolism of the cards and therefore to the personal life.
