About the Author
ALAN OKEN forges a new field of study which he calls “soul-centered astrology”—distinct from the personality-oriented approach which is in vogue. This field of study emanates from Alice Bailey’s Esoteric Astrology, which calls for a higher level of interpretation, manifestation of the soul, and service. An author, linguist, and translator, Oken speaks and writes in seven languages and has lectured extensively throughout the world. Alan Oken also makes frequent media appearances and had his own radio program in his home city, Santa Fe, New Mexico. Oken is a student of the Work and Teaching of the Tibetan Master, Djwahl Khul, and is a member of the new Group of World Servers.

An excellent reference book on the Waite tarot deck.,
By
This review is from: Pocket Guide to Tarot (Crossing Press Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
This little book is for anyone searching for a simple, yet meaningful reference book on interpreting the cards in the Waite Tarot deck. Where other authors typically use superficial interpretations for each card, Alan Oken touches upon the symbolism in each card and moves beyond mediocrity to unveil the deeper spiritual/psychological meaning inherent in the tarot system. For the more advanced readers, he includes esoteric and exoteric wisdom for each card. This is a must book for anyone interested in tarot!

Little Book Packs A Punch!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Pocket Guide to Tarot (Crossing Press Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
Though I have many books on the Tarot, this little book intrigued me. I had picked it up originally thinking that it was so small it would come in handy as a travel companion for one of those 'when in doubt' readings... Then upon actually reading it - Wow! ~ Packed with so much information, even the intermediate and advance Tarot Reader can value it's information. Traditional meanings, Esoteric meanings as well as Mundane. How they can apply in a reading, as well as pointing out a large amount of symbolism, particularly in the Major Arcana. I was (and still am) simply impressed with this little book. A little book that packs a punch! Save yourself some money on the big names and invest in this little book at a small price and I doubt you'll ever regreat it!

Excellent and straight forward.,
By GGuerard "GGuerard" (Puget Sound, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pocket Guide to Tarot (Crossing Press Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
I picked this little book up at a local bookstore after reading through quite a few on the shelf. I think this is the best bet for the money--simple and to the point. A great first book and intro to the art of Tarot. My first use of the cards with this book was very helpful! Be creative with your intuition and the information available in this book and you may find the key which is hidden in your subconscious.
