1.1. Oswald Wirth Mini Tarot Cards Wirth's Influence and Symbolic Legacy

• Initiatory Roots: Oswald Wirth is famous for being a disciple of the great French esotericist Stanislas de Guaita. It was Wirth who, under de Guaita's guidance, designed the first "occult" and symbolically correct version of the Major Arcana, influencing entire generations of scholars and readers.

• Reformed Design: Unlike previous decks (such as the Tarot de Marseille), Wirth has deliberately incorporated alchemical, astrological, and Kabbalistic symbolism evident in each Arcanum. For example, he has restored the use of the Serpent and the orientation of the figure in some cards to align with the Jewish Kabbalah, making this deck a must-have for enthusiasts and professionals studying the Kabbalah.
