Excellent and straight forward.

I picked this little book up at a local bookstore after reading through quite a few on the shelf. I think this is the best bet for the money--simple and to the point. A great first book and intro to the art of Tarot. My first use of the cards with this book was very helpful! Be creative with your intuition and the information available in this book and you may find the key which is hidden in your subconscious.

Little Book Packs A Punch!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Though I have many books on the Tarot, this little book intrigued me. I had picked it up originally thinking that it was so small it would come in handy as a travel companion for one of those 'when in doubt' readings... Then upon actually reading it - Wow! ~ Packed with so much information, even the intermediate and advance Tarot Reader can value it's information. Traditional meanings, Esoteric meanings as well as Mundane. How they can apply in a reading, as well as pointing out a large amount of symbolism, particularly in the Major Arcana. I was (and still am) simply impressed with this little book. A little book that packs a punch! Save yourself some money on the big names and invest in this little book at a small price and I doubt you'll ever regreat it!
An excellent reference book on the Waite tarot deck.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This little book is for anyone searching for a simple, yet meaningful reference book on interpreting the cards in the Waite Tarot deck. Where other authors typically use superficial interpretations for each card, Alan Oken touches upon the symbolism in each card and moves beyond mediocrity to unveil the deeper spiritual/psychological meaning inherent in the tarot system. For the more advanced readers, he includes esoteric and exoteric wisdom for each card. This is a must book for anyone interested in tarot!
