Tarot Lovers Relative To Bicameral Mind Theory


Bicameral Mind Theory and tarot Major Arcana Card Lovers Tarot Lovers and the cards’ relationship to Bicameral Mind Theory, by  Julian Jaynes My rendition of The Lovers tarot card defines in its imagery the clash of modern consciousness rising within humankind, thus preempting the automatic responses of previous generations.

Hanged Man Tarot Card, Hunting Ground Of The Paradoxical Bat


Hanged Man Tarot Card The Major Arcana tarot card, The Hanged Man, represents a world where consciousness is given up to sleep and our nocturnal eidolon, in the image of a bat, is released to hunt through our dreams. Here is where the waking mind sacrifices its sense of self-identity to the paradoxical bat so it will be free to roam. This path corresponds to the element of water related to the powerful Plutonian depths of our subconscious minds, where contact is established with other dimensional entities. Because our traditional concepts of language are not understood by the beings we encounter […]

Roger Williamson at Salón Arcano Gallery


Salón Arcano Gallery Salón Arcano Gallery presents and exhibits works that deny the existence of a dividing line between art and hermetic philosophy. Hermetic Philosophy and Hermetic Art are not two independent manifestations that have some connections and links between them: they are one and the same thing. Our tradition teaches that art is the expression of our philosophy and our philosophy is the expression of our art. The Gallery was, in its origins, inspired by the Salon de la Rose+Croix of Paris, created in 1892 by Josephín Péladan, which had the intention of exhibiting art that was related to […]

Tarot Tower Explained


Tarot Tower Explained The tarot Tower card signifies destruction, but it is important to recognize that this destruction comes from within rather than from outside forces. The Tower represents the moment in our journey when we gather the courage to transcend the false self-image we have constructed—the Tower itself. By breaking free from this illusion, we are able to unleash our true selves and perceive the Tower for what it truly is: a mere eidolon (an unsubstantial image or phantom). This card suggests liberation, awakening, and the courage required to shed old beliefs and embrace authenticity. Tarot of the Morning […]
