Must Read!
This book is an absolute must for anyone seeking the higher mysteries of the Major Arcana of the Tarot, especially for the students of Papus and De Guaita. This is not a light read or a how-to for beginners, but for dedicated students of the inner workings of the Greater Mysteries.

The reader does not know who are the translators
This is a good book. We can appreciate the influence that the author (Mebes) had on others who wrote about the subject, like Mouni Sadhu and Valentin Tomberg. The book's translators do a good job of translating, editing and annotating the book. In the notes after each chapter they make frequent connections between this book and Valentin Tomberg's "Meditations on the Tarot". In these notes - and in the book's foreword - they refer to themselves as "we", and they explain their reasons for publishing the book. But I am bothered considerably by the fact that there is no indication in the book of who "they" (the translators-editors-annotators) are.After reading the response below, I decided to edit my comment. I appreciate the translator's wish to remain anonymous. However, there is a difference between remaining anonymous when you actually write something (like Tomberg) and when you translate something (Like Robert Powell did with Valentin Tomberg's anonymous work). We expect to know the identity of the translator. I respect his or her wishes, though.
