The Tarot

Its Occult Signification, Use in Fortune-Telling, and Method of Play

by S. L. MacGregor Mathers

A short booklet by the future co-founder of the Golden Dawn, published to accompany a pack of cards. It gives brief meanings for all seventy-eight cards, largely in the French cartomantic tradition of Etteilla, along with simple methods of laying them out. It was one of the first English handbooks of tarot divination.
