🪶 Collector's Note

Created during the golden age of French astrology, Le Tarot Astrologique is one of George Muchery's most intriguing and elusive creations. Unlike conventional tarot decks, it was conceived as a genuine astrological divination system, incorporating planets, zodiac signs, the Ascendant, and other key elements of traditional astrology.

The artwork by Henri Armengol perfectly captures the elegance of the Art Deco era, while the large-format cards make the deck particularly striking in use and display.

Complete examples are seldom encountered today, especially outside specialized occult collections. Its combination of historical importance, astrological content, and period artwork makes it a highly desirable acquisition for collectors of French esoterica, astrology, and early divinatory card systems.
