Meer over het boek
What are the Tarot cards, and where do they come from? The author makes a strong case for their origin as a medieval system of memory training, and shows how an understanding of the sources of their symbolism can provide an easy but comprehensive guide to their interpretation. A wide variety of Tarot packs are descried and analysed: original medieval designs and occultists' packs as well as the 'traditional' variety. Many different methods of divination with the Tarot and other cards are also described, and illustrated with detailed examples. With this book in hand, the amateur card-reader can quickly gain a deep understanding of the Tarot trumps, and of the many ways in which they can be used to explain the past or forecast the future. A wealth of colour illustrations complement the expert text.
