The Hermetic Tarot

The Hermetic Tarot's esorteric designs emphasize the Golden Dawn's astrological attributes with further sephirotic, angelic, geomantic, numerical and kabbalistic elements. Now revered as a classic, this deck's black and white artwork by Godfrey Dowson features intricate detailing that highlights the powerful symbolism.

This deck was created by the members of the secret esoteric society the Golden Dawn. The Golden Dawn was founded in 1887 and had some important members like Arthur Edward Waite, Bram Stoker and Aleister Crowley.

The members of the Golden Dawn studied Kabbala, Tarot, Astrology, Alchemy and Magic
