.2242

I have been surprised by the complete absence from works by or about Jung which I have read so far* of any mention of the Tarot, and the lack of overall interest in Astrology (but there is still much left to read: about 97%!

But I am intrigued to read that Freud used to play Tarok, ***a card game which uses the Greater Tarots as well as some of the lesser (including all 16 court cards). Cards are laid out in 2 rounds of 8 (does this mean circles? – presumably not!), between which 6 are laid face down as a 'window' (=?).
