The Tarot of the Alchemical Magnum Opus is a redesign of The Alchemical Tarot in a simpler, iconic form, like the iconic images found in traditional oracle decks, such as the Lenormand oracle. The 78 cards are an alchemical distillation of the original deck.

These pared-down images capture the essence of each card's message. While the Alchemical Tarot images are strongly based on actual 17th-century alchemical engravings, for this version, Robert created original images expressing each of the alchemical processes.

The deck came in the mail right on time. I noticed the sturdiness of the case right away. It makes it easy to stand it to the side during a quick reading. The feel of the deck is amazing. The imagery and symbolism is perfect for new and experienced readers.
