The Tarot of ZAL - Paperback

by Sean Woodward (Illustrator), Sean Woodward (Author)

The author has readily embraced the communicative and spontaneous flow of Legbha through this medium. While this web of communication and media is littered with so much intended to keep humanity in the throes of a spiritual void, the author and artist performs his magic. As Blake would say, he is opening gates "inward into the world of vision." In Voodoo, these gates connect dimensions. By means of a deep contemplation of his images, one may enter those dimensions, the distant times and spaces of ZAL.

The Tarot of ZAL may confuse Traditionalists with its array of imagery bordering on sci-fi. It is NOT a traditional approach that the author takes. Working in the field of Voudon-Gnosticism, his work is saturated in many streams of modern occulture through which the Spirits have found vital vehicles. This includes the works of H.P. Lovecraft, Thelema, Witchcraft, Qaballa, Quantum Physics and many other areas of research.

All of these elements are effortlessly woven together into an expansive vision of worlds within worlds. In the parlance of Palo Moyambe, these are the patipembas within patipembas. They are the wheels within wheels of Ezekiel.

if you can hear those distant chimes bending with the curvature of time, ringing from a Tibetan temple blasted by snowstorm and hidden from all impurities of karma, if you are ready to step onto that curious train which arrives at the depot with the rarity of some once in a lifetime comet...

Then step aboard, Destination Leng.
