A profound esoteric study that bridges the worlds of Tarot and Freemasonry, The Masonic Tarot: History and Symbolism (1999) offers a rare exploration of initiatory philosophy through sacred geometry, alchemy, and the Kabbalistic Tree of Life.

Originally published in France as Tarot Maçonnique – Histoire et Symbolisme, this text analyzes the 22 Major Arcana as initiatory paths, each reflecting Masonic principles of light, construction, and universal order.

🔹 These two digital editions (PDF in English & French) accompany the Masonic Tarot deck and provide an in-depth reading of the parallels between Tarot archetypes and Masonic degrees, with extensive references to Greek, Egyptian, Oriental, and Kabbalistic traditions.
🔹 Includes diagrams of the Tree of Sephiroth, numerological correspondences, and the geometry of the Triangle and Cross as key to initiatory progress.

🪶 Collector’s Note

This study forms part of a rare corpus linking Western initiatory traditions to the symbolic structure of the Tarot. Long out of print and originally reserved for Masonic circles, this work now offers researchers, tarotists, and esotericists a unique window into the architectural language of initiation and the Tarot’s universal symbolism.
