The Buddha Tarot: Exploring the Mandala of Siddhartha's Journey to Enlightenment and the Collective Unconscious

Ancient philosophers and alchemists believed that the highest wisdom was to see through the eternal and unchanging laws of life. Just as Siddhartha saw the intertwining and mysteries of countless reincarnations when he attained enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree, he became the "Buddha."

The Buddha Tarot, designed by renowned occult scholar Robert M. Place, reveals the collective archetypal connections between Siddhartha's journey to enlightenment and the Major Arcana. This deck views the Tarot as a grand mandala, with the four suits representing the four cardinal directions and the Major Arcana symbolizing the sacred center. Users can use this deck to elevate their consciousness and embark on a journey of individuation.

The deck includes a 288-page in-depth guidebook that guides users through the practice of divination to understand the truth of the oneness of all things, establish a deep connection with the unconscious, and bring latent wisdom into awareness.

The archetypal similarities between Siddhartha's journey to enlightenment and the story told by the Major Arcana are brought to light in The Buddha Tarot.

The ancient philosophers and alchemists taught that the highest wisdom is to see the patterns that are timeless. This is what happened to Siddhartha as he sat under the Bodhi Tree—he saw the pattern of all his incarnations like a great wheel and became the Buddha, “the Enlightened One.”

Now the archetypal similarities between his journey to enlightenment and the story told by the Major Arcana are brought to light in The Buddha Tarot. By viewing the Tarot as a mandala, with the four suits representing the four cardinal directions and the trumps as the sacred center, you can use this deck to change your consciousness and progress toward individuation.

With this deck you will understand how the practice of divination itself prods us toward the realization that all is one as you begin to communicate with the unconscious and bring its wisdom into consciousness.
