Arthur Edward Waite fue un místico erudito que escribió extensamente sobre temas ocultos y esotéricos. Su nombre ha perdurado porque fue el primero en intentar un estudio sistemático de la historia del ocultismo occidental. Lo abordó como una tradición espiritual, en lugar de como aspectos de la proto-ciencia o la patología de la religión. Su prolífica escritura en este campo dejó un legado duradero.
Esta edición incluye una caja plegada y un folleto de instrucciones de 32 páginas. Las cartas tienen el mismo diseño que la edición Premium, y la cruz rosada en la parte posterior alude a la membresía de A.E. Waite y P. Colman Smith en la orden cruciana de la "Aurora Dorada".
