2.0 out of 5 stars Good parts and Bad parts, 29 Aug 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Tarot: A New Handbook for the Apprentice (Connolly Tarot) (Paperback)
This book will give you a good idea of what Connally was hoping to do with this deck. If you are reading with this deck, you may find some of the mentors helpful, though I think the court mentors are a bit weak. The exercises for becoming familiar with the energies of the different cards are also helpful. At the end of the book, she explains a few different spreads, which is helpful for beginniners.

I had a hard time getting over some of the religious overtones, as I am not Christian, and they tended to clash with my worldview. (Basically I rewrote all of her meditations.) Also, I disagree with her fundamental keys for the suits. Example: I have always seen wands as concerning spiritual matters, while she uses "enterprise and distinction" as the suit key. I also had some issues with her ideas about time and season cards.

I would strongly advise looking at a copy of this book prior to purchasing it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I think it is the best tarot book around for the Beginner, 19 May 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Tarot: A New Handbook for the Apprentice (Connolly Tarot) (Paperback)
I have studied Eileen Connolly books since 1983. They are the best tools for learning about Tarot. The meditations in the book are wonderful and I use them all the time. Her mentor help me understand the cards and the placement statements are very clear. I am very excited because I have found her website and I will be able to contact her directly. She is great.

5.0 out of 5 stars The very best book for learning the tarot!, 18 July 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Tarot: A New Handbook for the Apprentice (Connolly Tarot) (Paperback)
This book contains the most effective techniques for learning and using the tarot, along with the most accurate interpretations of the cards I have ever seen (along with use of the Rider Waite deck). I have many tarot books, but this one is the best and most used in my collection.

The only complaint I have is that book should have been hardback or wirebound, since all the pages are separated from its continual use.

1.0 out of 5 stars Old.......and not all that good.
This a thirty year old book (originally written in 1979), and its age shows. It should also have the word "Christian" in front of "Apprentice". Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars A nadir of New Age "instruction"
Tarot itself is a fascinating field; unfortunately, many books written about it are appallingly simplistic, uninformed, and simply not helpful. Read more
