Crowley authority Lon Milo DuQuette starts by providing an insightful historical background before delving into descriptions of each card in depth, from a tarot perspective and from an expanded, magickal point of view. He first describes the tarot meaning of each card in detail and then explains all the other attributions Crowley intended.

Since the beginning of time, humankind has stood in awe of the universe and its many magickal marvels—even the very planet Earth that we live on—realizing that there is a Goddess and God the created all that is. Their greatest creations were their children: the Wicces of old, and the Wiccans of tomorrow. There have been many secrets within all religious orders, but the coffer of knowledge of these esoteric occult and religious organizations has now been opened for all to learn and understand. In Tarot Mysteries of the Thoth, author Tamara Von Forslun shares these secrets of Wicca and brings clarity and sensitivity to budding seekers of the craft as they come to know and learn the religion of old. As the third book in her series on witchcraft and Wicca, this guidebook focuses on the training of the initiated Wicce by working the tarot as internal alchemy for the modern Wicce. It will challenge modern-day Wicces with a series of training lessons that are practical in the advancement of becoming a priest or priestess of the old religion of Wicca. In order to develop on your magickal journey as a Wicce, you must learn to connect at a very deep earthly level, and you must have an intensity that will help you gain the ability to positively change the very world you live in—not only on a microcosmic level, but on a macrocosmic, universal level as well. The lessons in Tarot Mysteries of the Thoth will aid in your development.
