Publisher's Synopsis
What does the Dæmon Tarot hold in store for you? Summon the power of infernal beings to guide you on your path . . .
For the 1863 sixth edition of his Dictionnaire Infernal ("Infernal dictionary"), a volume filled with entries about magic and the occult, demonologist Jacques Auguste Simon Collin de Plancy commissioned over five hundred unique engravings-including 69 signed illustrations by Luis Breton, mostly compelling portraits of named demons. Now author Ariana Osborne has created a matched set of 69 cards out of Breton's works and written a companion book of illustrated entries for each. These entries detail each dæmon's attributes compiled not only from the Dictionnaire, but from a variety of other sources; Osborne's own interpretations and insights into the subject of each card; and focused meanings to use in a traditional one-card draw or a six-card spread-"the next best thing to dragging a dæmon into your living room to answer all of your questions."
