MÍSTICAS: Brujas, diosas y ocultistas en los arquetipos del tarot
Místicas. Witches, goddesses, and occultists in the archetypes of the tarot claims the participation of women in the history of the occult through twenty-two portraits that engage with the arcana. Artists, poets, mediums, goddesses, and warriors who experienced contact with the supernatural and whose lives illuminate a tradition so often told without them.
The book draws precise correspondences between biographies and symbols: Sylvia Plath (The Moon) confronts the bond with her mother; Sappho (The Lover) reminds us that love is —also— bitter; Dion Fortune (Temperance) marches to war with a battalion of meditators; Marie Anne Lenormand (The Chariot) goes from orphan girl to seer of the French elite. Their paths confirm a central idea: women can be dark; we have been dark.
What it includes
- 22 major arcana following the numerology of the Marseille tarot.
- 56 minor arcana inspired by the illustrations of the Rider–Waite–Smith.
- 16 court cards with other enigmatic characters throughout history.
