About this title

Synopsis

You may have seen tarot cards in use, and you may even have had a reading, but learning to interpret the cards for yourself will probably seem daunting. Why, for example does The Fool stride bodly off the edge of a cliff? Why is The Hanged Man so serene? And what can these figures tell you about yourself and your future? Understanding the Tarot answers all these questions and will introduce you to the tarot's rich and fascinating world of symbolism and divination.

The vast range of tarot decks available can quickly baffle the beginner, and so twelve popular decks have been selected here and are illustrated in brilliant colour. All seventy-eight cards of the Major and Minor Arcana, their imagery and meanings, are discussed and compared. Then, Understanding the Tarot goes on to guide you through spreads of varying complexity, accompanied by real-life case histories to highlight the unique powers of insight the cards can have on your life. Throughout the book, the author draws on her enormous teaching experience, using question-and-answer panels to anticipate your queries as they arise.
Understanding the Tarot is the ultimate learning tool to master using the cards.

Store Description

I have a large inventory of children's books, cookbooks, collectibles, classics, first editions, signed books, history, biographies, science, textbooks, and more. Each book to me is a "precious jewel" and I try and describe it, giving you a good understanding of its content, and also its condition. One example, I have a John Muir book where he has written in the margins all through it to correct mistakes made by the publisher. (this was confirmed by John Muir historic site for me) I have over 50,000 books and some are quite rare from 1800's to 2020's. I've been collecting books for over 50 years and now am a spry 80 and going strong. I try and get books out same day as order comes in and love it when someone writes that they's been looking for a book for years and finally found it with me!
