A. E. Waite Collection
Category: Ebooks
Website Profile: Arthur Edward Waite was an Occultist, Mystic, Freemason and co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. Waite joined the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in 1891, becoming one of its leading figures. He also joined Runymede Lodge, a Masonic temple, in 1901 and the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia, a Rosicrucian temple, in 1902. He rose high in both of these orders, eventually becoming Master of Runymede Lodge in 1910. The Golden Dawn was torn by internal feuding until Waite's departure in 1914; a year later he formed the Fellowship of the Rosy Cross, not to be confused with the Rosicrucians. Waite was a prolific author with many of his works being well received in academic circles. He wrote occult texts on subjects including divination, Rosicrucianism, freemasonry, black and ceremonial magic, Kabbalism and alchemy; he also translated and reissued several important mystical and alchemical works. His works on the Holy Grail, influenced by his friendship with Arthur Machen, were particularly notable.
Waite is best known as the co-creator of the popular and widely used Rider-Waite Tarot deck and author of its companion volume, the Pictorial Key to the Tarot. This was notable for being one of the first decks to illustrate all 78 cards fully, as opposed to the 22 major arcana. Golden Dawn member Pamela Colman Smith illustrated the cards. The deck was first published in 1910. A number of Waite’s volumes remain in print today, which shows his degree of popularity.
* Book of Ceremonial Magic
* A.E Waite A Magician of Many Parts
* Hermetic and Rosicrucian Mystery - AE Waite
* Ordo Roseae Rubeae et Aureae Crucis
* The Doctrine and Literature of the Kabalah
* The Hermetic Museum
* The Secret Doctrine in Israel, and
* Turba Philosophorum
It is hoped that these Books and will offer readers gems of enlightenment on their path, and stand as a tribute to a unique and dedicated seeker of truth, Arthur Edward Waite.
