The Scent of plum flowers
saturates
my sleeve quarrels with the moonlight
leaking into the bed
Fajiwara Sada'ie (1161-1241) Zen follower
The historical moment in which the demand of dominating a vegetal world in order to obtain the powers was expressed in the imagine of a garden, was when human moved from his nomad condition to that of resident.
Settling down in fixed tribal groups, which needed to maintain a contact with the ignorant powers of vegetation, human felt the need of bringing the magic of the plants into the village. Which was a way to propitiate health and wealthy, trying to reconstruct the forest and its symbolic meanings in a defined and restricted space.
The Nature was perceived as the symbol of the circle of life, with femminine and moternal characteristics, well manifested in the connection with the Moon and the Great Mother, the lunar and primordial goddess of the World, of fertility and of vegetation, in strict analogy with the esoteric Water element, conceived as a
vital lymph, which ran through the trunk of the plants in an archetypal conception of moternity.
The same way that the Nature was divinized, the garden became anthropomorphic. If in its perfection, it represented a god, the garden was the representation of the human, who in his imperfection, tried to lean towards the heaven. The most antique structure of the garden proposed, in fact, paths – on the left and on the right – as a supporting structure, where the borders appeared to become the spines.
The main road was cut by the perpendicular line of the other road in such a way to form a cross, symbol of the union of the opposites and illustration of fecundity and birth.
At this precise point of the garden, arised a fountain, the beating heart of the park and, similar to a head, a flowering pergola. The fences and borders represented human skins, which contained the essence and the mystery of the soul.
In the garden the beneficial forces were strong and intense. These positive energies were concealed inside the plants, which had the power to chase away the evil and to preserve serenity and love.
The garden became a sort of a small world, which reproduced the mysteries and the secrets of the universe in a worldly level. The Elements necessary for life – Fire, Earth, Air, Water – entered into this restricted world. And since then they have accompanied human into the difficult art of gardening.

Tarots are universal symbols and, as such, find a precise correspondence with the vegetal world. The exclusive garden bound to this world permit drawing the archetypes from the profound world and enjoying the magical vibrations of the plants. The studio can be performed also on the proper onomastic horoscope, or can provide the cards of Tarots which are more in tune with the essence of the person.
It is undeniable that Tarots are universal symbols, in which lavish each emotion and sentiment.
Loving the nature and its circle pursuing life, I believed to see an archaic image of the vegetal world in each card of the
Major Arcana of Tarots.
Each Arcanum corresponds, accordingly, to a mystical plant of the vegetal relm and with them, all reunite in a circle, I created a garden, a magical garden, where each step vibrates of antique wisdom.
Each word is superfluous.
I hope that, like me, the others, desire to experiment this magical world and, learn to let themselves be carried away with leaves and fragrant flowers, enter into contact with the the elemental forces of Nature.
