Published for the first time with an index and Cardinal Hans Urs von Balthasar's afterword, this new English publication of Meditations on the Tarot is the landmark edition of one of the most important works of esoteric Christianity.Written anymously and published posthumously, as was the author's wish, the intention of this work is for the reader to find a relationship with the author in the spiritual dimensions of existence. The author wanted t to be thought of as a personality who lived from 1900 to 1973, but as a friend who is communicating with us from beyond the boundaries of ordinary life.Using the 22 major arcana of the tarot deck as a means to explore some of humanity's most penetrating spiritual questions, Meditations on the Tarot has attracted an unprecedented range of praise from across the spiritual spectrum.

Author Biography
Written anonymously and published posthumously in 1980 at the wishes of its author, Meditations on the Tarot has been translated from the original French by writer and esotericist Robert Powell, who lives in Germany. Widely considered one of the greatest Catholic theologians of the twentieth century, the Swiss-born Hans Urs von Balthasar, who wrote the afterword in this new edition, was nominated by Pope John Paul II as a cardinal in 1988, and died in June of that year, two days before his inauguration.

Tomberg’s Masterpiece
Tomberg’s anonymous tome is a modern class in Christian esotericism/mysticism/theosophy. It converted New Ager Roger Buck whose book Cor Jesu Sacratissimum: From Secularism and the New Age to Christendom Renewed is an essential companion. See also the section in esoteric scholar Antoine Faivre’s book Theosophy, Imagination, Tradition: Studies in Western Esotericism on Tomberg’s tome.

An important esoteric title....
This is an early piece of Hermetic literature. It isn't a particularly easy read....early translation and somewhat cumbersome. If you want to know how the Tarot contains many avenues into the esoteric symbols it is an important read....but if you don't have at least a modest knowledge to begin with, this might be a very difficult entre.

Challenging but Fascinating
Love Tarot. Want to learn more. This book has been recommended to me by my meditation teacher. It is not an easy read. It is a challenging but fascinating book. Keep in mind it is quite esoteric. Also this book was written in French by an author who wanted to stay unknown. Robert Tr Powell only translated it into English.
