	Arthur Edward Waite
		They were not well off and Waite was educated first at small private schools in North London and then, from the age of thirteen, at St. Charles's College.
		Waite had always been biased in favour of 'the path of the Mystic' as distinct from that of the Occultist, so he did not see eye to eye with Mathers and never felt at home in the original Golden Dawn ambiance.
		Waite was vague in manner; he would say, 'Do I like mustard, Vigilate?' and she would have to tell him.

	Waite
		Waite was never happy with popular occultism and he rejected from the start its follies and pretensions, for he was an acute, if untrained, critic and recognized the need for historical textual accuracy if anything of value was to be drawn from his chosen field.
		Waite's initial sojourn in the Golden Dawn was short, apparently because he was unhappy with the activities of some of his superiors: 'I began to hear things which, in my several positions at the moment, told me that I should be well out of the whole concern.
		In 1910 Waite was installed as Master of Runymede Lodge, and during his year of office he celebrated the Winter Dinner of the lodge, on 1 February 1911, 'by conferring on all brethren present the Great Mystery of the Vault of the Adepts (under dispensation from the unknown Superior of the Sodality of the Shades)'[60].

		Waite writes: ‘It is regrettable in several respects that I must confess to certain reservations, but there is a question of honour at issue.’ Nonetheless, the Rider-Waite-Smith deck is certainly among, if not the, most popular deck used today, and however vague Waite is, it is an important work.
		Part I outlines the Tarot’s assumed and actual history, and Waite’s accounts of other writers thesis on the origins of Tarot are interesting, though, of course, peppered with Waite’s usual snide remarks.
		In Part II Waite gives a brief overview of the cards of the Major Arcana, with brief description of some of the symbolism, naturally vague and without expanding, and open to interpretation for the uninitiated, presumably assuming it is obvious to others.

	Pictorial Key to the Tarot Review
		Waite writes as if he is relaying the Gospel, and the reader only needs to heed his words.
		Some of Waite's background is gone into - his membership in the Order of the Golden Dawn, his interest in all things mystical (the Holy Grail, Kabballah, magic, theosophy, occultism, Rosicrucianism), and his creation of his Tarot deck as a means of conveying the secret tradition of the ancient mysteries.
		In her introduction, Gertrude Moakley has Waite advising us that the meaning of the Tarot is not occult, but mystical, and that we are to allow the "highest" meaning of each card to come to us, and then allow the separate meanings to combine until all flows in harmony.

		It is the miniature version of the Waite deck, and it roughly fits in the palm of my hand, which makes it very easy to shuffle.
		My last concern is that the Rider Waite tends to veil the darker and more shadowy sides of human nature and our complexities, which makes readings a bit harder to interpret because results tends to be resoundingly "good and moral," or "bad and duplicitous," and few people are so extreme.

		Unlike his friend Arthur Machen, Waite's career was not destined to be fiction writing, but independent scholarship.
		Waite joined the G.D. in 1891; left shortly thereafter (either due to some questionable legal activities of his superiors, as he claimed, or due to financial problems of his own), rejoined in 1896, and was admitted into the Second Order (R.R. et A.C.) in 1899.

		In 1909, Arthur Edward Waite encouraged Pamela Colman Smith to produce a tarot deck with appeal to the world of art that would have significance behind the symbols, and thus make the deck more important than tarot packs previously used for centuries.
		The result was the unique Rider Waite Tarot deck, which has endured as the world's most popular 78-card tarot deck.
		This feature, combined with Pamela Colman Smith's ability to capture the subtleties of emotion and experience, has made the Rider-Waite Tarot the basis for the designs of many twentieth-century packs.
