Where can I buy a set of the Egyptian Tarot as shown in the Ra material?

Anybody know?

Jeremy's link is the closest, but my understanding is that they used a set that is no longer in print in the exact form.

It is however possible to recreate the deck with custom card printing. There are quite a few sites that print custom cards if you upload the images; the black and white images of the exact cards used during the channeling are floating around somewhere. Perhaps someone will have a link - it was linked in some thread in the forum earlier.

Here's the images:

The tarot in question is based on an earlier work by Maurice Wegener illustrated in R. Falconniers' book in 1896. The book is in French and are the original source of the non-edited images, however these are localised to the book and were not specifically made for cards (It was advised the images be cut out from the book):

Comte de Saint-Germain (what he went by) then introduced the above to the west in 1901 with minor edits in his Practical Astrology book, and if you're after the closest representation of the deck, this would be it, however it's in yellow monochrome if I recall.

C. Zain later further revised those images multiple times into the brotherhood of light tarot, which I think may actually have the most promise. There were multiple revisions and tracking each of these is difficult, however I suspect they used a variation of the deck by these guys. The deck Jeremy pointed to is the latest culmination, though ideally you want to look for the monochrome versions by Zain in the 30-90's period with latter having inclusion for both major and minor arcana (full 78 as opposed to the 22).

This site again does a good job tracking the various changes:

Edit: Found it. This a high res PDF of the Falconniers book containing the original illustrations. If you're so inclined you could print them out and make a deck that way as Xise suggested. Alternatively go for Germains deck (If you don't mind the yellow monochrome):

Thanks, Horuseus, for the info!

Anagogy, also see http://www.thirddensity.com/tarot/ and http://www.lawofone.info/links.php#tarot

One option for buying the cards would be ebay. For example, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1964-Vintage-U...1098438465. That auction has ended but maybe more will come along.

It might also be worth contacting the Church of Light to see if they have some old decks lying around.

Someone please create a physical (non-digital) deck that is based on the Ra Material and start selling it on Amazon... It appears the thirddensity.com one is the best verison so far.

Another idea... It would be super awesome if one of the talented artists on this forum would create a deck from scratch based on the descriptions in the material.

A third idea: Label the cards (mind body spirit), color code, AND label them matrix, potentiator, etc.

[βαθμιαίος]

Speaking of Amazon, that's another option (used or new).

Woah... $95‽‽‽‽

I've been attempting to create a post-modern deck from scratch with my wife for some time now. It's an excruciating task as there is so much subject to interpretation. I'll release a deck one of these days but I'll suspect most of you won't like my interpretation of the Ra material. I'll use the names in my signature (first ones for each pair of four names).

Woah... $95‽‽‽‽

You said you wanted them to take your money!

Touché

[Horuseus]

These are similar at a more reasonable price: http://www.ebay.com/itm/121378213964

Box itself has seen better days though.

Edit: As always whenever purchasing used decks be sure to clear them .

Edit 2: Scratch that, this is a bargain: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261527130509

I am no artist by any stretch of the word, but perhaps I should try to put something together myself that is color coded and labeled appropriately that is based off the images on the LOO.info website... If I come up with something good, maybe LLResearch could sell tarot decks? If you think about it, it is by far the most accurate tarot system available on this planet (that I know of anyways).
