The Alchemical Visions Tarot
The Alchemical Visions Tarot approaches the cards through the lens of Carl Jung's process of individuation, reading the tarot's journey as a map of the alchemical Great Work as applied to the psyche. The project is rooted in the idea that what the ancient alchemists called the Magnum Opus, working with prima materia to create the Philosopher's Stone, offers a precise and useful metaphor for the psychological integration of shadow and light, known and unknown, conscious and unconscious.
Arthur Taussig's artwork, exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and other major institutions, gives the deck a distinctly fine-art sensibility. The accompanying book develops these ideas at length, making this a set designed for deep engagement rather than quick reads.
