Product Description Look at Tarot in a whole new light with this breakthrough publication! More than just a brief explanation of what the tarot cards mean, this book examines the symbols on each card in the Rider-Waite-Smith deck, what they mean, and how they apply to a deeper understanding of each card in a reading. Questions such as, "Why are there pomegranates on the veil behind the High Priestess?", "Why is the light in the Hermit's lantern shaped like a six-pointed star?" or "Is the Fool really about to walk off a high cliff or does it just seem that way?" If you're looking for a tarot book that is not just more of the same old brief explanations of what each card means, this is the book you've been looking for! Designed for those new to tarot, as well as the experienced reader, this book contains information you'll not find anywhere else. The history of the cards, as well as their mysterious qualities, are waiting for you to investigate. Learning how to read the tarot cards is an adventure that can take you to new and fascinating places, even if you only read them for yourself!
