A Textbook Of Mystical Philosophy
The Qabalistic Tarot is both a textbook and a valuable sourcebook on the symbols of the Western Hermetic Qabalah, a corpus of mystical ideas, which have, for centuries, exerted a powerful influence on the development of Western thought. Dr. Wang traces the development of Qabalistic ideas throughout history and uses tarot images to explain the symbolic intricacies of the Path. This book can be used as a companion guide to the Golden Dawn Tarot, the Thoth Tarot, Rider-Waite decks or Marseilles style decks. Hailed by reviewers as "a masterpiece," and as "the single most profound reference of its kind," The Qabalistic Tarot has become the standard in its field, a book essential to all students of Tarot symbolism.

What Customers Are Saying About The Qabalistic Tarot Book
There are books that don't come close to the quality of this one that will sell for twice this one's price and more.
—Yamamushi, Amazon customer
This hardcover book has an excellent introduction to the Tree Of Life/Kabbala system of Tarot. The rest of the book has very deep write ups (and their association with the Tree Of Life paths) on each card in the deck, and also extra chapters in the back regarding additional information on scrying and divination. Overall, I would highly recommend this book for anyone studying/using/learning about the Tarot, and it's related meanings/systems.
This book supports the Rider-Waite Tarot, the Golden Dawn Tarot, Crowley's Thoth Tarot, and the Marseilles Tarot.
This book covers much more than a standard introduction. It is also well written for beginning students to the Tarot, and also more long-term diviners. Either way, fantastic addition to have and Wang's writing is a witty read.
—Byron, Amazon customer
This book is a must have. It has diagrams that you wish were in your other books. Sometimes an author has that moment o perfect clarity and conveys a message in all of it grandeur. Buy this book.

There are many great books about Qaballa and Tarot but this one pulls so many aspects together in a logical and engaging way. I've learned things from this book about this system that have been so exciting — it's a keeper.
