Book Overview
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

I recommend Tarot Basics definitely for the Beginning Tarot Initiate for its clarity of meanings for each of the major/minor arcana cards and the three different decks in the book. This actually gives the Beginner first sensitivity to each of the images of each of the decks. 3 of the decks are Crowley's Book Of Thoth;Rider-Waite; and The Marseilles decks(one is in the book and the other is the 78 card deck in the set which is a collage interpretation of this classic deck.) I have tested the deck provided as I am very familiar with Marseilles Deck by 1000's of readings to be very comfotable with this deck in at least 4 spreads..

I'm new to tarot reading and this book was very informative and insightful for me. It goes through the basic fundamentals of tarot reading, including pictures of the different (types of) cards and their meanings/interpretations. I found the short description of the 200-year old history of tarot cards very interesting, as well as the aspects of tarot in other forms of astrology. Tarot Basics also includes 15 different lay-outs for tarot readings from the simplest to the more insightful types and includes interpretations/analysis for all of the 78 cards in a tarot deck. Reading this book made me want to run out and buy my own deck of cards and start conducting my own readings! Great for a beginner like me. Enjoy!
