Hexen Tarot 2.0
Description
This deck goes deeply into the histories of cybernetics, the internet, military research and social engineering, particularly focusing on the post-WWII era. It examines the Macy Conferences (1946–1953), which aimed to establish a general science of the human mind, and explores how these developments contributed to the emergence of a "control society." The deck also reflects on countercultural responses, including anarcho-primitivism, technogaianism, and transhumanism, drawing connections to thinkers like Thoreau, Heidegger, and Adorno.
Each card features hyper detailed alchemical drawings, a harmony of text, diagrams, and esoteric imagery.
Another feature we love: the author assigns historical figures and concepts to traditional tarot archetypes; for example, Aldous Huxley as The Fool, Timothy Leary as The Magician, and cybernetics as the Wheel of Fortune.

Before Aleister Crowley, before Arthur Edward Waite and Pamela Colman Smith, before the Golden Dawn, before Papus, Éliphas Lévi, and Etteilla, the first author to describe an occult version of the Tarot was Louis-Raphaël-Lucrèce de Fayolle, comte de Mellet, writing in Antoine Court de Gébelin’s, 1781, eighth volume of his monumental encyclopedia, Monde primitif.
The comte de Mellet associated the Tarot’s trumps with the Classical Ages of Man: the Age of Gold, the Age of Silver, and the Age of Iron. He correlated the Trumps with the letters in the Hebrew alphabet, he described the minor suits in detail, and he provided the earliest discussion of a divination technique for the Tarot.
