5.0 out of 5 stars Invitation to Wonder...Wonderful!, October 16, 2002

This review is from: Invitation to Wonder (Paperback)

This is really a special book. Whether you read it to learn more about Tarot or simply for human interest, this book will charm you as it takes you behind the curtains to witness first-hand the magic of Tarot as it is revealed to people in their readings.

Each "case study" is filled with life's most interesting dramas. "Will I ever have children?"... "Does she love me?"... "Will I be safe?" ..."Will I be successful?" What makes it more interesting is watching over the shoulders of Jeanne Fiorini as the cards reveal their information to her and and she in turn makes her interpretations.

See how:
*intuition plays a critical role in interpretation
*the symbols and meanings of each card is so very dynamic and how when grouped with other cards can weave varying, but very telling stories.
*magic and miracles are all around us. All we need to do is be open to them

As a student of Tarot, I learned much through Jeanne Fiorini's application of Tarot symbols and meanings in actual readings.

As a person who loves to see what makes people "tick," the readings themselves were fascinating and enjoyable.

This is simply a must-have book.

Jeanne Fiorini has a real knack for bringing the magic of the universe into clear, practical focus. Her straight forward and playful writing style makes "Invitation to Wonder" an enjoyable and easy read for the novice and a joyful reaffirmation for the more experienced practitioner. The case studies clearly show that the use of tarot as a self development tool can be amazingly accurate and tremendously healing. Take it from me a student and client of Jeanne's for almost 9 years, this is an "Invitation" you don't want to pass up!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Awesome Invitation, October 15, 2002

Invitation to Wonder goes beyond the many tarot card handbooks on the market. I like the book because it shows interpretations of groups of cards and how their meaning can change because of the cards around them. The book provides so many examples of the good way in which readings have helped people cope with life. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who would like to know more about tarot and those who would like to see the good that results from the author's examples.
