Product Information

I love the light embryos in the Ace of Swords below! I also love how The Chariot is pulled by two comodo dragons and how the King of Wands is wearing a crown of thorns like another well-known visionary whose resurrection we recently celebrated. I adore the write-up in the Starman Tarot guide book for The Chariot which happens to be my Tarot Year Card in 2019 – Very insightful! Davide is an award-winning Designer, Art Director and Visionary Artist. He is also a Spiritual Teacher, Energy Master, and Explorer of Human Potential. In his personal life he is a skilled percussionist, master didgeridoo player, jump rope fanatic and ultra-runner.

This book emits the same vibrant energy as the cards. Some books can make it hard to connect your question to the stated meaning of the card. That’s not the case here. If you asked a question and you drew a card and found yourself unsure on how to proceed, this book will help you. That’s not always the case with other books; with this book you have an ally. He continues: "I remember him telling me that my art and designs were truly incredible. He described them as ‘Potent Visual Alchemy’. Strangely this didn’t fill me with any great satisfaction or sense of triumph. Instead, it simply felt as if time had caught up with itself. This event – his words – happened in 1973 and it had taken twenty years for the reality to catch up: time is simply a mechanism to stop everything happening at once. In a sense, no matter what the world threw my way to counter it, this meeting had already happened."Since the Sun of Tiphareth is in the sign of Aries, which is the sign of This Path, indicates that THE EMPEROR exercises some control over the solar forces of the Higher Self. The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust was recorded at Trident Studios in Soho, so Bowie and people working with him would often end up in my dad’s restaurant after a late session.My dad was also a musician and he really liked Bowie and always found him very polite and respectful. In those days Bowie liked a few glasses of red wine and he would often hang out with Tony Visconti, his producer, chewing over ideas. ARE YOU READY TO DISCOVER... EMPOWERING ANSWERS - ENRICHING OPPORTUNITIES - NEW DIRECTIONS - EFFECTIVE ACTIONS A Tarot reading is a magical, intuitive and liberating process. I work directly with my own Starman Tarot. A reading seeks to uncover the source-patterns that are flowing through your life. When I work on a piece of art I want to surprise myself, to challenge my own ideas and beliefs about what is true, what design or what art needs to be. If I’m working on an identity project for example, I look to question what 'identity' is in each project, how can I answer this question and find a way to really bring a new feeling to life for my client and their audience, to help them see hidden possibilities within their business and their ideas.

The space surfer, haloed Prince of Cups makes a reference to Hamlet and ‘To be or not to be’ and the 6 of Cups is super easy to read as sentimentality and reaching for the past. And the Ace of Wands is just stunning. It’s so beautiful it hurts. I could just look stare at it for ages. This is how I feel the Ace of Wands energy. I have never looked at another Ace of Wands Tarot card and been able to say that before. Bowie looked at the young boy’s art and said to him: "I can see clearly you are an artist. Can we draw something together?" De Angelis explains: "Bowie and I are now sitting together in an off-world realm, far from the illusion of Soho. We are drawing together. We find a conclusion in the drawing and I hear myself asking Bowie if I can one day create something for his record sleeves." Having grown up in east London’s Walthamstow, De Angelis is now based in Bali, where he lives "a fruitarian lifestyle" (yup, that means he only eats fruit), and as well as his art and design work spends "a lot of time working with energy and movement practices".

What was the process of setting briefs and collaborating? Was he hands on? Or did he just let you do what you wanted?

You are the inventor of your Self-Awareness and therefore, not the fear and desire you are reflecting on. You are the mirror upon which all imagined-self appears and disappears. I treat each session as a sacred act, taking great care to ensure that all my clients leave a session with effective and positively-focused action steps and understandings of the dynamics playing out in their situations and circumstances. Basically, the benefits of a reading play out across all aspects of your life, helping to you to live more fully and openly. Take a look at the 7 of Wands. “Why is he holding his position on a crumbling and unstable pillar?”“What is his real focus?”“Why the hexagrams?”“Why does he look relatively unscathed even though there’s so much chaos around him?”“Why do I see the bird, that the book describes as a vulture, as an eagle and what does that mean?” I could go on but I won’t. I’ll start to answer one of my questions. Maybe approaching the situation I’m asking about as an eagle can help overcome the “vultures”. Or maybe something has run its course and it’s on its last legs and the eagle perspective will make that clear. Or maybe getting caught up in the bird in the first place is a distraction and I need to maintain focus. For me, Bowie’s music literally ignited an energy in the world that had never before been experienced. With him, it was a complete immersion experience – the art and the sounds united in a transcendental wave through our minds and bodies. Ultimately for me it is about 'revelation'; to reveal something that makes people go 'oh wow, that’s a new way of seeing this'. For me beauty is an inherent quality of our reality; it is this quality that helps us to travel through life, to feel connected to something vaster than our own small story.
