Collaborative project between Italian kabbalistic expert Marco Marini and beloved art historian and tarot illustrator Luigi Scapini. As the title suggests, the deck and book are focused on the kabbalistic tree of life, and tarot's correspondences to the Hebrew alphabet. The symbolic structure is closer to that of Crowley-Harris than that of Waite-Smith, with the Marseille ordering of Justice and Strength (Force) at 8 and 11 respectively, and the court cards titled Princess/Knight/Queen/King. There is a fair amount of nudity depicted -- though tasteful and artistic, this makes the deck generally unsuitable for younger querents and practitioners. The full set includes a poster-sized foldout of the tree of life diagram, illustrated by Scapini.
