A poetic new collection of essays, where the symbolism of tarot meets life in a changing world.
The Tarot de Marseille is a set of 16th-century cards that formed the basis for the occult use of tarot. When Jessica Friedmann bought her first pack, the unfamiliar images led her into an in-depth exploration of the art, symbols, myths, and misconceptions of Renaissance tarot.
Over the years, as tarot became part of her daily routine, her life was affected by floods, droughts, devastating fires, and a pandemic, creating an environment where the only constant was change.
Twenty-Two Impressions: Notes from the Major Arcana use the Tarot de Marseille as a reference point, combining historical research, art history, and critical approaches with personal reflections. In these essays, Friedmann shows how the cards of the Major Arcana can be used as a lens to examine the unexpected — and subtle beauty — of 21st-century life.
