Nearly three years have passed since the previous Newsletter. During these long months, as the edition of the Tarot of Marseille Millennium Edition 2017 gradually sold out and the release date of the book “The Sacred Code of Tarot ~ The Rediscovery of the Original Nature of the Tarot de Marseille” (first edition, April 2011), long-awaited and repeatedly postponed, the author has continued to work tirelessly so that finally, in 2023, his efforts bear fruit with multiple reeditions. These reissues, characterized by their quality and the depth of content and form, stemming from new research and, above all, unprecedented discoveries, truly mark a major and revolutionary milestone in the history of the Marseille Tarot.

• Tarot Of Marseille Millennium Edition, 2022 •
~ The integral regeneration of the 78 Arcana of the traditional Marseille Tarot ~
Eleven years after the first edition of only the 22 Major Arcana (2011), five years after the first complete edition
of the deck with its 78 Arcana, followed by the “Mini-Millennium” in 2020, here is the 2022 edition,
the most refined version to date of the Tarot of Marseille Millennium Edition, which now represents
the culmination of twenty-two years of research and work.
This new edition is honored by four publications: at Tarot of Marseille Heritage,
a label co-created by Yves Reynaud and the present author in 2012, it is a limited edition of 1,000 copies, produced with high-density paper and high-definition laser printing, accompanied by a numbered original envelope, signed and stamped with the author's personal mark.
At Éditions Trajectoire on the one hand, a box set “Tarot de Marseille Edition Millennium” entirely dedicated to the 2022 edition has been published, containing the 78 Arcana, a booklet (written by the author), and a satin fabric pouch. On the other hand, a box set “Tarot de Marseille Edition Millennium” has been published, containing the 78 Arcana and a book by my colleague Florian Parisse, with an introduction to the Tarot of Marseille Edition Millennium written by the present author. Finally, at Editions Franco Rossi Armonic, a limited publication of 300 copies of the Tarot de Marseille Edition Millennium, in the “Nigra & Alba” version (Latin for “Black & White”), has also been released this year, which is decidedly rich in original productions. |
