Bernd A. Mertz made various trips to Egypt after he had begun to specialize in astrology and to work on its important links to modern psychology. He tells us himself why he was so fascinated that he wished to create an ’Egyptian Tarot’ for our times. During his extensive reading he discovered that in the Paris of 1781 the occultist Court de Gebelin had attracted great attention in esoteric circles by asking: ’Imagine the surprise which might occur if an Egyptian book were to be discovered today, a book from ancient Egypt which might have been spared from the flames in the burning of the famous libraries and which were to contain the deep and clearest knowledge. Would I not surprise you very much if I were to assert that this book had in fact never been lost at any time past and that it has been in the hands of, so to speak, everyone in most parts of Europe? The most astonishing thing would be if one were assured that no-one ever suspected that it was Egyptian. The fact is: this Egyptian work is the only one to have survived to the present day after all the treasures and all the knowledge of the Egyptian libraries had been lost. It has become so popular that no wise person has ever taken the trouble to think about its origin. No-one has done so apart from me.. It is the Tarot.' Bernd A. Mertz decided to issue his own edition of this tarot with his commentary. Michael Lacey and Rick Leaman resolved to provide a new edition to a wider public in the English language with a website offer as a challenge for those interested to take more control over their lives.
