The Smoke, Ash & Embers Tarot (Volume 2.1) is a 79-card dragon-themed tarot deck created by Stephanie Burrows and illustrated by Adam Oehlers, published by Three Trees Tarot. It serves as a deeper, more atmospheric continuation of the Oak, Ash & Thorn tarot, moving from the bright, sunny forest to a deeper, more magical, and often darker woodland realm inhabited by dragons.

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.
