The Original Golden Dawn tarot cards with their correct esoteric designs and colouringThe
Magical Tarot of the Golden Dawn Deck comprises 78 fully illustrated tarot cards and an instruction booklet, based on the Hermetic Order Golden Dawn tarot lectures.
The colouring used in this Golden Dawn/Stella Matutina tarot deck is unique and is based on the four sets of Golden Dawn colour scales.
A comparative study between the current Regardie/Wang deck and the classic
Magical Tarot of the Golden Dawn Deck will reveal a large difference in the colouring, especially in the in the minor arcana, where the Wang deck does not use the four colour scales.
This coloured deck of tarot cards is intended as a companion to
The Magical Tarot of the Golden Dawn book.
