This book is about the Triumph of Spirit Archetype System (TOSAS). The TOSAS is a set of twenty-two archetype cards and associated commentary designed to provide individuals and cultural creatives an alternative to the racist, sexist, hetero-normative, and colonial Master Narrative (Blaut, 1993) or Master Story (Ellens, 2001) that currently dominates the consciousness of this planet. This book is divided into two parts. Part one introduces some key terms, like master narratives, ideological institutions, archetypes, and the elite nature of this planet’s current, dominant master narrative. The goal of part one is to make you aware of the oppressive elite master narrative and its constituent archetypes. Part two introduces the Triumph of Spirit Archetype System, which is my alternative to the dominant elite master narrative. The goal of part two is to provide you with an overview of the TOSAS so you can understand the significance of the archetypes, with a view towards using them to remove the elite master narrative from your own consciousness and also to use the TOSAS to help create new narratives and stories that heal and empower others, rather than damage, enslave, and oppress, as the current elite master narrative does.

Characters and events in King’s Dark Tower series are inspired by the Fisher King, Arthurian, and other mythologies and legends, as well as the works of more contemporary authors who derived inspiration from similar sources. This paper explores King's use of Tarot motifs in the Dark Tower series with attention to similarities and parallels to the presentation of Tarot in T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land. King’s central character Roland, whose cards are read by his nemesis, has the satisfaction of knowing when the cartomancer is dead and of saving multiple universes, but then discovers that he is doomed to keep saving those universes over and over again.
