Work with the “darchetypes” of your shadow self through the tarot• Uses alchemical reconciliation through opposition to illuminate the shadows in our lives for a more complete sense of self• Explores the dark side of the Major and Minor Arcana where the Fool becomes Hubris, the Magician becomes the Manipulator, and the Empress becomes the Cannibal Mother• Offers techniques and card spreads to investigate the “darchetypes” that lurk in our personal and collective unconsciousAs a tool for shadow work and divination, the Shadow Seer Tarot deck and guidebook give methods to see through the blind spots of ordinary tarot readings into the heart of what is often hidden. Using Hermetic principles, Maja D’Aoust defines oppositional energies as they relate to the cards of the tarot. With the alchemical method of reconciliation through opposition, she looks deeper into the familiar meanings of the Major and Minor Arcana to give readers insight into the shadow energies at work in their lives to reveal a path toward wholeness. By inverting the archetypes and revealing their shadow side, or “darchetypes,” Maja opens portals of understanding to the bad behaviors that we often attempt to conceal, repress, or deny. For example, shadow forms are represented in the suit of Cups by cards such as the Toxic Family, the Glutton, Addiction, and Betrayal. In the suit of Wands, the dark side of our drives and passions are exposed in cards like Propaganda, Slander, the False Martyr, and the Avoidant. Working with our secret shadows, rooted to the underworld and our ancestors, reveals deeper truths and a more balanced perception of the world.
