5.0 out of 5 stars A unique and healing book 19 Jun 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This book is utterly astonishing and quite unique. The author integrates, within a deeply-rooted Christian perspective, a vast range of intellectual and spiritual streams. I am nearing the end of my second reading of the book, and find it never ceases to challenge, to inspire, to enlighten, even to heal.

My copy has a picture of the Hermit on the front cover, and studying it can quite appropriately be a very solitary pursuit...

5.0 out of 5 stars Luminescent Esotericism 26 Jun 2004
Format:Paperback
It is difficult to summarize the book without trivializing it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A seemingly bottomless well of spiritual insight 11 Sep 2009
Format:Paperback
This book takes work (for example, it's one I found almost impossible to read whilst there is something else going on in the background) but it is endlessly rewarding. It has nothing to do with the divinatory applications of the Tarot, presenting each card instead as an arcanum, a pictorial representation of a spiritual exercise that as a whole, represent the hermetic tradition.
