Here are some snippets from a few of my favorite books

Tarot Triumphs: The concept of a ‘world soul’ was apparently first formulated by Plato in the Timaeus67 and was also embodied in mystical teachings from the early centuries CE, such as the kabbalistic and hermetic philosophies.68 In Kabbalah, it is personified as Shekinah, the feminine grace of God as it descends to the garden of creation, and is there symbolized by the beauty of woman. Perhaps it also accords with the representation of the sacred force of nature in alchemy. Other early versions of this card may also back up the notion that she was no ordinary dancing girl, but a representation of holy truths; the main counterparts, alternatives for the Triumph of the World, were images of the Holy City Jerusalem and the Holy Grail.

Elements of the Psychic World: Attempts to disappear are a fairly common goal in magical practice. Methods of ritual magic aimed at invisibility are common in medieval and modern sources.

Psychic Abilities : This was a psychic who did not realize he was a psychic for a long time. From a very early age, he showed that he did have psychic abilities as he knew things about what had happened in the family before he had been born, though no one had told him of these events. Since his family were accepting of his abilities, they had the room that was needed to flourish. It was when he came into another psychic called Lydia Clar that he was able to really understand his abilities, and start on the path of teaching others how to appreciate being psychic.
