    I actually went from Jodorowsky to Yoav Ben Dov and it was such a relief. I felt defeated by J's pretentious rambling and to go to Ben Dov who is so succinct and down to earth was such a pleasure. thanks for the vid

    Jodorowsky is a really, really weird person. After watching several of his interviews and almost all of his movies, I think he has a kind soul and that he's in general not that motivated by things such as greed or fame. I mean, his movies are literally impossible to sell for a profit, and (except for books) his terapeutical is always free. He has a very unique vision, he's very sure of himself and has a strong personality, so it's evident why he comes off as weird.
    I think he's not afraid of speaking his mind (to the point of sounding rude at times) and that he has egotistical tendencies. I can understand that. Growing up in a dysfunctional family in a nowhere town, you kinda have to put all your efforts into believing in yourself, even to the point of being egotistical. It's a way of surviving psychological.
    I hope that his eccentric personality doesn't deter anyone into discovering his thought and work. If there's an artist that made me understand and believe that art can achieve ANYTHING, it's Jodorowsky

    This video brings me great relief, Tom! After much deliberation and attempted online comparisons, I recently invested in the Ben Dov deck and book, and also in your own ‘Tarot on Earth’. They should all be arriving imminently! 🤩

      Ah, good! I'm glad I was able to assuage your anxiety. 😊 The differences ultimately are pretty slight, but I just feel since I've gotten the CBD that I can just feel Ben-Dov's generosity of spirit in the deck--even if it's not his original independently published one. I hope you like Tarot on Earth! And if you want company while you work through it, we've got a Facebook group "Tarot on Earth Study Group" that you can join if you're on that platform!

    I enjoyed this video and especially your treatment of the “professional secret” claimed by Jodorowsky and Camoin. There are parts of Jodorowskys work and reading style that I really love but things he has shared about himself during interviews which make me, as a woman, feel very conflicted about his work.
    You truly can feel the love and generosity of spirit in the CBD deck. Having also watched the videos of Yoav Ben-Dov on his website, I really do feel his openness of Spirit. You can just feel that he was a good guy.
    Just to confirm, you did say the two books by Ben-Dov are one and the same, right? Thank you so much Tom, for a wonderful comparison of these two decks.

    • @thefoolsjournal
      @thefoolsjournal  Před 6 lety +1

      I totally agree -- yes. I don't know much about Jodo's personal life, but maybe that's a good thing -- I already am not a fan. Yes, the two Ben-Dov books are the same. The Llewellyn one is more expensively produced and in color, but they're the same.

      I did not know his story until a friend told me that he publicly said in an interview that he violated someone for a movie. I did my research and it was true. I’m trying to keep my wording sensitive for folks who get triggered. I was so enraptured with how he read cards...ugh.
      On another note, Yves Reynaud and Pablo Robledo and Il Meneghello produce wonderful decks and my conversations online with Pablo have shown me a genuine humility of spirit. He’s a very nice guy.
      Thanks again for your post.

    • @coconinoco
      @coconinoco Před 4 lety +1

      Victoria Ferrell: Obviously I don’t know the truth, but Jodorowsky said fairly recently that what he claimed about that scene was for the sake of shock for publicity, and that would certainly fit with his highly provocative and iconoclastic style. He also explained that there was a large film crew present who would certainly have intervened if he had truly done what he claimed. Jodorowsky said last year that he regrets that he used a fictional statement about violence toward women as a publicity tool.
      The scene as shown in my copy shows a brief tussle, with Mara Lorenzio’s clothes being torn off and a close-up of her face, some nudity but nothing more, and Jodorowsky remains fully clothed. The voices and shouting are dubbed on, and watched with the sound off it becomes clear they are acting. Of course one would like to hear Lorenzio’s recollections too but she has never commented publicly, as far as I know.

      Victoria I worked with Jodorowsky's son Cristobal during 7 years and yes I can understand that feeling as a woman. Think that their background it's latinoamericano and there is an intrinsically macho man inside of them ... but, they are really very nice persons, very loving and respectful ( at least they do their best to overcome their culture even is sometimes they might fall from grace hahaha). At the end all masters, teachers and gurus have their own ghosts in the wardrobe. Let's take the good, what's useful for us and than send them compassion for what they still have to lear :-)

    Salut à vous !
    Depuis quelques jours je m’intéresse au tarot sur le plan iconographique et historique, suite à la découverte de la proposition de restitution par Jodorowsky. J’ai donc remonté (Marteau, Conver, Chosson, Madenié, Dodal, Rolichon, Noblet, Viéville...) jusqu’à retrouver l’origine de détails qui m’intriguaient. Cependant, il y en a toujours quelques uns qui me laissent perplexe :
    -La boule blanche et bleue sur la robe du pape, entre les disciples.
    -Le motif au cou de la tempérence.
    -La couleur jaune d’un des deux liquides versés par l’étoile semble provenir de Rolichon, or l’original était en noir et blanc, et a été colorisé dans les années 90!
    -Et enfin, l’escalier et la porte sur la maison dieu???
    Que dit Jodorowsky dans son livre à propos de ces « détails »? Cite-t-il d’autres tarots, ou anciens moules de cartiers...? Je ne sais pas trop à qui m’adresser, mes recherches sur le net sont toujours infructueuses. Je rappelle que je m’intéresse à l’histoire de l’iconographie, pas aux interprétations psycho-spirituelles. Si vous pouvez me mettre sur la piste, je vous en serais bien reconnaissant !
    Bravo et Merci pour votre travail.

    16:05 Yeah like for example, you see the color purple in the jodorowsky-camoin deck. Purple was associated in history with royalty, and the highest level of synergy, I suppose. You can see that there in the justice card, and in the flowers in the hair, on the lovers card that you showed earlier

    I am a beginner to tarot, having got my deck last September. I got the cbd deck, since that's the only one available on amazon, but am in the middle of jodorowsky's book. Many years ago, I saw 'the holy mountain.' Have you seen that? I suppose I should read ben-dov's book after finishing jodorowsky's
    The ben-dov deck uses less colors, and there are some structural differences. Though I really like the jodorowsky-camoin color scheme, I think simplicity can also be good, which might be what the ben-dov deck goes for. At some point, I'd like both decks, and I do find something mysterious about the jodorowsky-camoin deck. Having said that, the various questions I had asked the bed-dov deck did stimulate thought, which seems to be the goal
    In one of jodorowsky's reading videos, he talks about not having much use for the minor arcana. And I don't think I saw him use them at all in his reading videos, that I saw. He wrote about them sort of extensively, however. I think maybe there is more use for them than he thinks

    Jodorowsky makes a very big deal about the significance of the colors... and says these are more faithful to the older hand painted decks, that could not be reproduced by the later printing tecniques used in Convers. He says this color detail is essential to its meaning. Listening to Jodorowsky, he does come across as arrogant and certain things he says in an authoritative manner, actually seem like he pulled them out of his thumb... so different than Ben-Dov that comes across as so generous and sincere and truely smart with a kind of integrity, that is not the first impression with Jodorowsky, for me. But Jodorowsky has a very large following in Latin America... idolized in some ways be some of my south american friends. His story is an interesting one and he has certainly put in his time with the Tarot.

    Excellent video, but for the love of god, stop saying "um"!

      Would you tell someone with a stutter to stop stuttering? Because the tick is similar.
