Brilliantly insightful. An excellent treatise on the human condition and the cycle of birth-to-death using the trump cards of the tarot to scaffold the concepts (supported by myriad religious-text, sociological/psychological research, and historical references). I had no idea what a "scholarly" read this would be when I picked up. Still a manifesto and by no means a reference text, a truly insightful explanation of the human condition. It pulled a few triggers for me...particularly the insights into the "Chariot" parking spot on the life-road. I will read more by Rosznak, to be sure.
