Discover the real meanings of the tarot cards. This extraordinary and exciting approach will bring your readings to remarkably high levels: it dispenses with those "cookbook" classifications and teaches you how to combine your own intuition with over 200 years of tarot wisdom. It all begins with a "card of the day." Shuffle the deck and pull out one card each morning and evening, and use it as a motivation force or to reflect on. Or, find your own personality card, determined from your birth date. Select from among 15 different layout, from the simplest 3-card spread for everyday situations to special ones for decision making and fulfilling your ultimate desire. A visual comparison of the symbolism used in each card of the three major decks (Waite, Crowley, and Marseilles) comes accompanied by a full-page analysis of each of the 78 cards--deep, powerful interpretations that bear no resemblance to the "fortune telling" readings of the past. You'll see how to deal with each card, capture your immediate response, and ask the questions that will bring a increased knowledge. If you work with tarot, you cannot do without this! For readers who want to do it all: The Tarot Gift Set! It contains: * A paperback copy of Tarot Basics * A boxed set of 78 tarot cards, beautifully illustrated by artist Jacquir Mair You'll uncover a whole new world of interpretation of the ancient art!
