Cartouche is a word with French origins and represents an oval figure, especially as it relates to Egyptian monuments or papyri, which contained the name of a sovereign or person of rank or note. Cartouche is based on ancient Egyptian knowledge and should not be confused with tarot cards. The nine major cards correspond to the principal gods of the early Egyptian pantheon. Each card can be used for meditation, divination, healing or magical or talismanic purposes and when arrayed can provide insight and answers to dreams, family or emotional problems, financial or business matters, healing and health, crafts and skills, protection, spirtual seeking, or any of life's many enigmas. Contents in Seven Chapters: The Nature of Cartouche, Cartouche's Versatility, How to Handle Cartouche, Methods for Use in Divinaiton, The Cards Meanings Symbols and Legends, Correspondences, and Other uses for Cartouche. Plus Bibliography. Cards NOT included.
