The '''[[Tarot de la Reyne]]''' is a [[Tarot]] deck published in 1911 by French [[occultist]] Madame de Maguelone. An extremely unusual and rare deck, it purports to utilize the writings and predictions of [[Nostradamus]], however, the cards are mostly based on the life of Catherine de Medici, the Queen of France in 1556. The deck is believed to have been published in 1911 by Eugène Figuière & Cie of Paris, although there is some evidence it may have been printed as early as August 1909. It was featured in the February 10th, 1911 issue of the bi-weekly [[occult]] magazine ''La Vie Mysterieuse'', although the article was merely a reprinting of a few pages from the guidebook.
The '''[[Stele of Ankh-ef-en-Khonsu]]''' (also known as the '''Stele of Revealing''') is a painted, wooden offering stele located in Cairo, Egypt. The designation of this object as the "Stele of Revealing" was given in April 1904 by the [[occultist]] [[Aleister Crowley]], in connection with his ''[[The Book of the Law]]''. According to Crowley, his wife Rose had already reported a revelation from the god [[Horus]], through his messenger [[Aiwass]]. The couple went to the newly opened Egyptian Museum (where the stela had been moved), to see if she could recognize Horus on Monday, March 21, 1904. Rose recognized an image of the god on this painted stele, which at the time bore the catalogue number [[666]], a number holding religious significance in [[Thelema]].


In February 2023, the deck was revised and transformed into the [[True Oracle of Nostradamus]] by [[occultist]] [[Travis McHenry]].

Stelae of Ankh-af-na-khonsu.jpg

The Stele of Ankh-ef-en-Khonsu (also known as the Stele of Revealing) is a painted, wooden offering stele located in Cairo, Egypt. The designation of this object as the "Stele of Revealing" was given in April 1904 by the occultist Aleister Crowley, in connection with his The Book of the Law. According to Crowley, his wife Rose had already reported a revelation from the god Horus, through his messenger Aiwass. The couple went to the newly opened Egyptian Museum (where the stela had been moved), to see if she could recognize Horus on Monday, March 21, 1904. Rose recognized an image of the god on this painted stele, which at the time bore the catalogue number 666, a number holding religious significance in Thelema.
