An interactive, open-source encyclopedia of the Thoth Tarot system.
|
The Thoth Tarot is not a standalone system — it is the meeting point of three ancient traditions. The 78 cards are mapped onto the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, where the 22 Major Arcana correspond to the 22 paths and the 40 pip cards sit on the 10 Sephiroth. Each card also carries an astrological attribution — zodiac signs, planets, and elements — creating a web of correspondences where every symbol illuminates every other. This handbook maps all three systems together, with Jungian psychological interpretation as a fourth lens. |

The original Thoth Tarot deck paintings by Lady Frieda Harris remain under copyright (held by Ordo Templi Orientis), so this handbook does not reproduce the card images. Instead, each card is described through its visual symbolism, esoteric attributions, and Jungian interpretation — encouraging you to study the deck itself alongside the text.
