the marseille tarot documentary

We are happy to share with you the brand new video documentary about the Marseille tarot and the tradition of “Marseille Maîtres Cartiers” made by «La Maison du Tarot de Marseille» in January of the year 2024.

«La Maison du Tarot de Marseille» is an amazing tarot shop in Marseille owned by Emmanuel Coudreau.

This documentary of one hour and half is composed of an interview in wich I talk about the history of tarot and the history of the «Maîtres Cartiers» from Provence. A discovery of the famous places of the Maîtres Cartiers in Aix-en-Provence.
Then, in a last part, I show you the entire process of handcrafting tarot cards according to the tradition from the XVII th and the XVIII th centuries.
You can activate english subtitles directly on Youtube.

our values : Tradition & spiritualiTY

At Tarotgraphe, we are committed to the respect of the Marseille tarot’s tradition.

Our love of the tradition reflects into our production method that is similar to the method of the “maîtres cartiers” from Marseille from the XVII and XVIII th centuries.

But our love of the tradition also reflects into our spiritual believes and into our way of praticing tarot to reach the perfect union with God (trump n°21)

We firmly believe that the Marseille tarot is a powerfull tool that illustrates the initiatory path of our lord and savior Jesus the Christ through the 22 trumps.

This spiritual path can lead the practitioner to the birth of Christ inside of him and so experimenting the holy presence of God within himself.

Therefore, we strongly advise against any use of divination.


BLESSINGS OF TAROTS :

In order for your decks to be invested by the divine presence, each handcrafted deck is blessed before shipping.
Our blessing, is made accordingly to the “Roman Benedictional”, the aim is to energetically cleanse your decks and to invest them with the Holy Spirit so the love and goodness of God may be manifested through your Marseille tarots.

This blessing also protects your tarot from demonic influences and evil spirits.

Healing & enlightment :

When used wisely, the Marseille tarot enables the healing of body, soul, and Spirit through the intercession of Jesus Christ. Within the framework of the spiritual practice of lectio divina*, the Marseille Tarot fosters total union with God, thus allowing the passage from the biological to the spiritual.
Through the Breath of God, you are led back to key moments of your life,
in order to heal your past wounds.
