Reviews

By reading this text...former confusion will become confident knowledge that is guaranteed to add depth and clarity to your readings. --Valerie Sim-Behi [I] was almost too infatuated with it...with its plethora of exercises and range of perspectives (historical, creative, Golden Dawn, psychological, and neopagan...and that's just for starters!).--Diane Wilkes, Tarot Passages I am thankful that another book has come into being to help both beginning and advanced students of the Tarot see the real mystery behind the 16 court cards of the Tarot. --David Allen Hulse An interesting book overall with something for everyone, especially those of us who have trouble with the court cards. It's easy to read and the authors have worked well together. --taintedtarot.co.uk It is one [book] that you can reference to, learn from and just enlighten your Tarot library. It is a book that since I have gotten it, I have not put it down. See for yourself. Wonderful book. Thank you for such powerful information. --World Tarot Network At last a definitive book on the tarot court cards! Comprehensive, original and creative in its approach to the subject of the court cards, it is a treasure trove of valuable resources for both beginners and experienced readers. A rich learning experience is provided by the combination of well researched information and innovative exercises. --Tarot Society of South Africa I highly recommend Understanding the Tarot Court for all levels of Tarot student, as a working book as well as a tremendous resource for any Tarot library. --Bonnie Cehovet, The Crystal Gate If you have EVER had any question about the often complex and confusing court cards, it will be answered in this book...as a valuable reference and 'next step' for the experienced Tarot reader, it is a joy. --The Diva Digest
