I'm curious as to what the Camoin method is, if not the Jodorowsky method. If different, how do I find out about it in English?

Hello, Sainte Jeudi:

Please see Philippe Camoin's site for information on his unique method. en.camoin.com/tarot/-Home-en-.html

An English-translation of his work is coming this year, by my reports.

Best regards,

Paul

Ah, oui. Thank you, Paul. I am just beyond excitement over the release of Jodorowsky's THE WAY OF TAROT and now a book on Camoin's method of Tarot reading!!!!????!!!
I have to add to my aresenal of reading the Marseilles decks what a fine teacher passed on to me in the late '90s...Carol Sawyer. Alas she no longer teaches Tarot, or I have no reason to suspect that she does, judging from her website. Ms. Sawyer's method of reading the cards included the following indicators:
(1) card meanings
(2) position meanings
(3) suit meanings
(4) the numerology of the cards and the numbers in general.
I've also been aware of Fred Gettings' book and wonder how that is received in these circles.
I wonder what will happen to the Tarot de Marseilles when or if it enjoys the universality of the Rider-Waite decks. Being a believer that the Marseilles Tarot has a place in the occult systems of knowledge (The Underground Stream), I am secretly delighted that it might come to the foreground in ever widening circles, largely through the assistance of this website and the release of two (!) books in English. Stuart Kaplan may want to sob in the corner for a time. Who is publishing the Camoin book and who is writing it?
Thanks again for your impressive and energetic site.

Paul, et al,
Are you aware of the upcoming Marseilles-material translation from Jean-Michel David? I believe the publication date is this summer?

By the way, I am in possession of the Jodorowsky book now, "The Way of Tarot" and am reading it with a group of Tarot friends.

I am about to refer a friend to your forum. He is translating some writings from the French, all Tarot-related, and has been requesting assistance from me in regards to the translation of some words he has come across, looking for subtleties. I am not equipped to offer subtleties so I am happily referring him here. I hope he will "pop up" in a forum soon.

Best!!!
