As someone new to the world of tarot and the meanings of the cards， I wouldn't be able to say how accurate this book is， though I will say on some sites where you want to learn more， it's been recommended。I appreciated the layout of the book， the illustrations weren't too confusing or distracting， and the format let your eyes wander the page a bit and soak it all in， as if you were meant to look around and see see if something else pinged in your consciousness or something。I recently got a bette As someone new to the world of tarot and the meanings of the cards， I wouldn't be able to say how accurate this book is， though I will say on some sites where you want to learn more， it's been recommended。I appreciated the layout of the book， the illustrations weren't too confusing or distracting， and the format let your eyes wander the page a bit and soak it all in， as if you were meant to look around and see see if something else pinged in your consciousness or something。I recently got a better tarot deck than the one I had before （it was a travel deck with a small how-to books with descriptions， okay but not the best quality）。 The descriptions were far more helpful than what I had before， and go between different facets of what the questioner wants to learn about， like a love reading， a future/career reading， etc。 Not comprehensive， but a good starting point for those trying to get the point of the cards。 。。。more

5/5⭐️Highly recommend this book for card interpretations！It’s my go to book for any RWS inspired deck。 I usually get rid of the little white book that comes with a deck， and just use this。 It has an explanation of each card， then how to interpret the card in a love， career， and spiritual reading。 Also goes over reversals for each card。 It’ll definitely be my learning companion for a long time。

Really good structure。 Easy to find different sections and use as a reference。 It’s helped me understand the tarot better and feel more confident in readings。

Very detailed and insightful book。 I felt as if I were already being read to filth！ LolMy favorite things were the breakdown of each card and the meaning they can carry in each aspect of your life， what the reversal means， as well as a breakdown of different spreads to use and when/how to use them。 Very happy I chose this book。Note: if you are looking for a breakdown of all the symbols on each card， this book did not provide that， but it did not hinder my understanding of any of the cards。

Great book！This is a fantastic book if you're a beginner with tarot！ Jess is fantastic。 I've been a subscriber to her youtube （behatilife） for years now， I would definitely recommend you check her out。 I have a hard copy of this book which I use all the time when I'm reading my cards。 I'm still a beginner and this book has really helped me with the card definitions。 Great book！This is a fantastic book if you're a beginner with tarot！ Jess is fantastic。 I've been a subscriber to her youtube （behatilife） for years now， I would definitely recommend you check her out。 I have a hard copy of this book which I use all the time when I'm reading my cards。 I'm still a beginner and this book has really helped me with the card definitions。 。。。more

I'm a tarot virgin， I had a lot of preconceived notions going into this book， which I read out of curiosity。 I feel like this book shattered each of my preconceived （wrong） assumptions， educated me on both the supernatural and practical uses of tarot， and dove into specifics about potential card meanings。It seems appropriate for people curious about Tarot （which actually was created by Christians for Christians - who knew）， beginners， and tarot enthusiasts。 I'm a tarot virgin， I had a lot of preconceived notions going into this book， which I read out of curiosity。 I feel like this book shattered each of my preconceived （wrong） assumptions， educated me on both the supernatural and practical uses of tarot， and dove into specifics about potential card meanings。It seems appropriate for people curious about Tarot （which actually was created by Christians for Christians - who knew）， beginners， and tarot enthusiasts。 。。。more

Du très beau travail。 Moi qui depuis des années ai souhaité me lancer dans cette aventure me voilà servi。 Je recommande sans réserve。 L’idéal est d’avoir déjà un deck à portée de main et d’avancer au fur et à mesure plutôt que de lire le livre en une fois。

This is a great book for the beginner looking for a guide to Tarot Cards。 The illustrations are well done and the explanations are easy to understand。 Ms Wiggan uses the Ryder Waite deck in her pictures and interpretations。 The book is divided into two parts; tarot reading and how to give readings and part two gives card meanings and how to explain them in readings。 I received a copy of this ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review。

A Tarot book for beginners。That's only my second tarot book。 Previously I read one of the most known， but only now with Jess's descriptions I'm starting to get more of a feel for tarot。 Her descriptions feel more lively and on the point。 I'm using it daily <3 A Tarot book for beginners。That's only my second tarot book。 Previously I read one of the most known， but only now with Jess's descriptions I'm starting to get more of a feel for tarot。 Her descriptions feel more lively and on the point。 I'm using it daily <3 。。。more

I have several books on how to read tarot。 However， this might be my favorite of them because it truly is the best。 It is beautiful。 Easy to navigate between how to read the Tarot， and then also the meanings of the cards。 I have six sets of Tarot cards including the Ryder Waite deck that is used in this book and that made this even more enjoyable。 One of my frustrations with trying to learn tarot is having to bounce around with so many other books to get the meaning。 I didn't have to do that wit I have several books on how to read tarot。 However， this might be my favorite of them because it truly is the best。 It is beautiful。 Easy to navigate between how to read the Tarot， and then also the meanings of the cards。 I have six sets of Tarot cards including the Ryder Waite deck that is used in this book and that made this even more enjoyable。 One of my frustrations with trying to learn tarot is having to bounce around with so many other books to get the meaning。 I didn't have to do that with this book。Beautiful book and one that I will definitely get in paperback。 。。。more

The only thing that could have made this book more perfect is if it came with its own set of tarot cards。 But realistically I get why it didn't， everyone has their preferred set at home; this book is meant to serve as a guide for all tarot decks。 First off， this book is beautiful。 The layout is wonderful， it's easy to navigate， flip through and read。 The book is broken into two parts; tarot reading 101 which breaks down how tarot works， how to give readings （to yourself and others） and more; the The only thing that could have made this book more perfect is if it came with its own set of tarot cards。 But realistically I get why it didn't， everyone has their preferred set at home; this book is meant to serve as a guide for all tarot decks。 First off， this book is beautiful。 The layout is wonderful， it's easy to navigate， flip through and read。 The book is broken into two parts; tarot reading 101 which breaks down how tarot works， how to give readings （to yourself and others） and more; the second part breaks down card meanings。 It's a wonderful guide that will really appeal to those new to tarot and those who are wanting to brush up their skills and maybe delve a little deeper。 A wonderful guide！ 。。。more
