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.
'''[[Amaymon]]''' is a prince of [[Hell]], and, according to some [[grimoire]]s, the only one who has power over [[Asmoday]]. He is usually named in grimoires alongside [[Oriens]], [[Egyn]], and [[Paimon]] as kings of the cardinal directions. He variously described as the king of the north, east, or south. According to ''[[Clavis Inferni]]'', he is king of the north. The ''[[Lesser Key of Solomon]]'' states that the [[exorcist]] or conjurer must be in possession of a silver ring, that is duly consecrated and worn on the middle finger, as a form of protection against this poisonous astral breath. In ''[[Book of Abramelin|The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage]]'', translated by [[S. L.

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

Amaymon is a prince of Hell, and, according to some grimoires, the only one who has power over Asmoday. He is usually named in grimoires alongside Oriens, Egyn, and Paimon as kings of the cardinal directions. He variously described as the king of the north, east, or south. According to Clavis Inferni, he is king of the north. The Lesser Key of Solomon states that the exorcist or conjurer must be in possession of a silver ring, that is duly consecrated and worn on the middle finger, as a form of protection against this poisonous astral breath. In The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage, translated by S. L. MacGregor Mathers, Amaymon (as Amaimon) is one of the eight sub-princes, described as an Egyptian devil, who Abramelin restrained from working evil from the third hour until noon and from the ninth hour until evening.
