[Inner Traditions] A new deluxe miniature edition of the iconic Marseille Tarot • Includes 78 full-color, gilt-edged cards of the classic Tarot de Marseille originating in the early Italian renaissance • The accompanying booklet allows for intuitive, spontaneous readings through a keyword approach for each card, along with different drawing methods and spreads • Features a travel case with magnetic closure that allows for easy handling and enhanced portability of this mini deck One of the oldest Tarot designs in use, the Marseille Tarot traces back to the card-playing traditions of the early Italian renaissance. Introduced into Southern France at the turn of the 16th century, the deck developed its particular visual style and symbolism during the 1600s and is today seen as a precursor to many modern Tarots. This beautifully designed mini deluxe edition of the Marseille Tarot merges the traditional visual approach with French illustrator Nicolas Galkowski’s distinctive primary color style. Bold, symbolic-rich imagery in the Major Arcana is contrasted with the Minor Arcana’s simpler, abstract displays of the suit symbols. Encased in a sturdy box with magnetic closure, the smaller-sized, gilt-edged cards are easy to handle and display in spreads. The 104-page guidebook provides unique interpretations and various drawing methods and layout spreads. Each card provides three individual key words and a question that help you develop a greater and more intuitive understanding of your reading. Spontaneous, original insights will arise more easily and bring discernment to your questioning. Whether for daily guidance or spiritual exploration, the Mini Tarot de Marseille helps you quickly master its symbolism and apply it to your life with astuteness and clarity.
