The "Restored" Tree of Life
The Qabalistic Paths of the Major Arcana in The Kingdom Within Tarot are distinctive in that they are based on “The Restored Tree of Life” as proposed by Aleister Crowley’s star initiate, Charles Stansfield Jones (who wrote under the pen name Frater Achad.)

After achieving high distinction within Crowley’s organization for his revolutionary epiphanies and insights into the Tree of Life, Achad found himself asking a rather obvious question: If Qabalah teaches that the serpent of wisdom ascends the tree, how can the Paths begin at the top and descend? He began the radical exploration of reordering the paths so that they began at the bottom rather than the top, creating a model that, quite simply, works.

The Kingdom Within Tarot (using the Restored Tree of Life as conceived by Frater Achad) expands beyond previous tarot decks to create a workable model that is easily accessible and universal to any model of Truth.
