As a complete beginner to the Tarot.(I have read playing cards for years but still have to refer to a book for some meanings). I decided to try this book. 1 week later I am doing accurate readings for my friend family and myself without having to refer to the book at all. It is so easy to follow and interesting and it gives a lot of insight into how the deck is set out and how to use your intuition. Beginner or not I think everyone will get something out of this book. Go for it. The cards it uses in the pictures is the Universal Waite but it does recommend using a pack that suits you. I recommend using a rider waite type pack to learn then you can fly with any pack you choose, as I have.

I've read many books on tarot over the last 20 years, and this is my absolute favorite. The information is clear and thoughtful; the writing is warm, accessible and witty. Tarot can be intimidating, but Arlene and Lisa welcome the reader into a personal, individual connection with the cards and their messages. The emphasis is on the joys of discovery; on resilience, and on our ability to create a positive approach throughout life's changes. This book always leaves me feeling inspired -- exactly like a good reading!

I found this book to be an excellent reference and learning tool. It is useful to anyone at any level of understanding of tarot, from the newest novice to the practitioner. The authors provide a historical understanding of the use and symbols of tarot. They then go on to show how to use the tarot to increase your self understanding or to answer questions for yourself or others. It is not a "cookbook", giving quick recipes for using the cards. Instead it is a guide to using your own intuition and ability to understand the symbols on the cards. Those looking for a black/white easy answer cook book may be disappointed. But those who are looking for an easy to understand guide to learning to read tarot on their own will find this book a must for their library. The authors combine practical use with a sense of spirituality. It is an engaging combination and it makes this a delightful and useful book.
