Lenka se vyjádřila, že »upíři jsou teď také v módě,« tak jsem neodolal a na tento zbrusu nový tarot sem dávám upoutávku s anotací. Zřejmě o tomto předmětu budeme muset pojednat šířeji rovněž…
Mezitím si dovolím upozornit alespoň na články na portálu Okultura: Eseje o magických aspektech moderních dějin a soudobého umění, jmenovitě, a z různých úhlů, např. Chtít vzít nebe útokem…, zasvěcené eseje a výklady Upíři a Komentáře k AL: IV. část (zcela dole), Amrita od Aleistera Crowleyho, a konečně trochu moderněji u Dariusze Misiuny: Tři principy sociální metafyziky chaosu.

The Tarot of Vampyres by Ian Daniels
Blood-red roses entwined in briar stems. Glistening pale-marble skin. Coiled serpents staring with eyes of fire. The vampyre legend is rooted in darkness and seduction, but its enduring message is one of spiritual hunger—to drink in the everlasting divine.
Featuring Ian Daniels‘ masterfully and meticulously crafted artwork, The Tarot of Vampyres is the most visually stunning vampyre deck on the market. This sumptuously rendered tarot is a tool for spiritual awakening, inviting you to delve into your inner shadows and emerge in radiant light.
Inspired by the Rider-Waite structure, the 78-card deck includes familiar figures such as the fool, the empress, and the lovers, depicted with Gothic style imagery steeped in the entrancing world of vampyres.
A companion guide interprets the symbolism in each card and provides enriching exercises, innovative spreads, and instructions for creating your own shadow profile and vampyre character.
Ian Daniels (United Kingdom) is a professional painter and illustrator. He has produced artwork for gallery exhibitions, book jackets, fully illustrated books, and numerous other projects whose themes include fairy tales, dreams, ghosts, and vampyres.
