Product Description
You don't need a special gift to read tarot, insists Josephine Ellershaw. And to prove it she has boiled down thirty years of experience into a straightforward, easy-to-use tarot guide for beginners. More than just a manual, Easy Tarot is a boxed kit that also includes The Gilded Tarot - a stunningly beautiful and popular deck by Ciro Marchetti. Ellershaw gently guides novices to become proficient, sensitive amd responsible readers. Suit by suit, she introduces the distinct characteristics of the minor arcana, court cards and major arcana. You will learn how the cards link to one another and produce insightful relationships as their unique energies merge in the Cross Of Truth, the Celtic Cross, and other spreads. There is even a list of card combinations that commonly indicate specific events: such as pregnancy, a wedding a new job, and more. A quick guide to card meanings, sample readings and ethical guidelines, as well as tips for keeping a tarot diary, are all covered in this well-rounded introduction to tarot.

I have been teaching traditional Tarot reading for many years and have 'many' different sets of cards.
When a friend introduced me to this set I fell in love with the beautiful illustrations immediately and as it is so important to become good friends with your cards this set makes that easy to do.
The book is simple and straight forward and I would highly recommend it to those wishing to learn this skill.
I will highly recommend this item to my own students in future.

If you have ever tried to get to grips with reading the Tarot cards, you will know that this is easier said than done. But I must say I was very impressed by this book.
First of all, the Gilded Tarot is one of the most beautiful decks ever made. It is also very clear and easy to read (even easier for beginners than the Rider-Waite).
There is no need to remember everything about the meaning of the cards by heart as the pictures tell you clearly what they are about!
Once you have looked at the pictures intently and read the accompanying explanation in the book, you will be surprised how much you remember the next time you pick up your deck!
If you are serious about using your cards and interested in doing reading for yourself and others, you should follow the advice in the book and start your own diary. This is a really good technique and, although a little time-consuming, it will give you the best results.
I hope you will love this deck as much as I do if you decide to buy it. In fact, I am sure you will!

After struggling with my first tarot deck for years, I put them away and have been learning tarot with this box set. Which includes the stunning Gilded tarot deck, and a very helpful easy to understand book on the gilded tarot. I wish I had found this ages ago, I would be an experienced reader by now if I had. If you're like me, someone who has wanted to learn the tarot but has struggled for a long time. Then this deck is for you.
I highly recommend it.
