Alchemystic Woodcut Tarot


Mind, Body & Soul Ezine Card Deck Review: The Alchemystic Woodcut Tarot - Secret Wisdom of the Ages by D W Prudence, published by Red Feather. £33.99 Quality boxed set of 78 cards and guidebook. Card Size: 5” x 3.5”. 

Daniel W Prudence is known as Dwell With Prudence. He is a hypnotherapist with a background in esoteric topics, such as symbolism, alchemy, Kabbalah and Tarot. The deck has numerous quotes from the Judaeo-Christian Bible making the deck’s system religious in nature, and leaning towards Christianity.

 

This is an intensive course in the use of Tarot with a Kabbalistic foundation, using antique occult images from the 16th to 19th century. Spreads offered are a Celtic Cross; Past, Present & Future; Crusader Cross; and two options on the Horseshoe Cross. I find this era is quite heavy and masculine, and the text is equal to the time in which the images were created. You will learn about these images, the Kabbalah, and how to give comprehensive Tarot reading. Ideal for Tarot readers who lean towards Christian mysticism. The images of some cards are explained in greater detail than others, but where there is a detailed explanation, it is fascinating, and the meaning given is also of considerable depth.
