About this product

Product Information

Arthur Edward Waite was a profound scholar of the occult. He was a member of the Order of the Golden Dawn and made the tarot accessible to the reader with the release of his seminal work, The Pictorial Key to the Tarot, in 1909. The book is broken into three parts: The Veil and Its Symbols which provides a history of the tarot along with traditional symbols associated with each card; The Doctrine of the Veil comprising 78 black and white images of the Rider-Waite deck along with regular and reversed meanings; and The Outer Methods of the Oracles which discusses the art of tarot divination, including the now famous Celtic Cross Spread.340 pp, bandw illus., pb.

I received the "The Incredible Discovery of Noah's Ark" book on 8 December 2023 early within the original eBay estimated delivery date of 7-12 December 2023 tightly wrapped in a poly mailer slightly different than the listing page description with some damage to the spine and pages of the book. After messaging the seller I was generously refunded 50% of the book price. The book is intact with full content. This seller made extra efforts to make this a satisfactory purchase. Thank You!

    Waite-Smith Key to the Tarot

    A great beginner book, possibly even for seasoned readers as a touch up, follow-through explanations or as a reference book - a keeper. I've had several copies all marked up, underlined and referred back to as greater knowledge was attained. Not the end-all summary of everything ever known, but a true asset in the knowledge base. Whenever I read something new & different I always refer back to Waite-Smith. Read up on how these tarot cards were developed and the lives of its author/illustrator pair and you'll appreciate both the book and the cards ever-more!

    Thought there'd be more to this

    This book doesn't describe the cards with detail like you think it would being that the author designed their symbolism. Disappointed.

  • Spine cracked and disintegrated upon opening for first time

    Must have been stored in some pretty gnarly conditions. Otherwise looks new (but of course now unusable)
