Golden Wirth Tarot: A Radiant Journey into Esoteric Symbolism
The Golden Wirth Tarot invites us to explore the mystical
realms of the Major Arcana through shimmering holographic gold foil. Created by
Swiss occultist and artist Oswald Wirth, this deck is a beautiful reproduction
of his original work.
Origins and Influence
Wirth, a student of French mystic Stanislas de Guaita, revolutionized tarot
by infusing it with esoteric knowledge. His Major Arcana-only deck, published
in 1889, drew inspiration from the Tarot de Marseille. Wirth emphasized the
symbolism of numbers, imbuing each image with numerological significance.
A Gilded Transformation
Lo Scarabeo’s Golden Wirth Tarot replaces the white background with dazzling
gold foil. The 22 large-size cards retain their original French titles—Le Fou,
Le Bateleur, La Papesse, and more. The delicate line engravings, preserved from
the hand-colored originals, gain new radiance under the hologram foil.
