Description
The Tarot Majors by G. O. Mebes is a long-awaited English language translation of a Russian publication from 1912. This new edition brings the work of Mebes, a respected leader of the Russian Martinist movement, to a wider audience. Mebes was a mathematician and physicist who taught at prestigious schools in St Petersburg before his arrest by the Soviet secret police in 1926. His lecture series on the Tarot has been widely admired, and this book includes images of the Tarot Trumps created by Papus, alongside sketches based on Mebes' own work. This publication honours the memory of the St Petersburg occultists while providing a valuable resource for students of the Tarot and other Hermetic arts. It also features explanatory notes and reflections from important Tarot books and teachers, including Meditations on the Tarot and the writings of Eliphas Levi and P.D. Ouspensky.
