I started this book skeptically because I'm a self-taught tarot reader who has done quite well over the past decade, thank you, without anyone else telling me how to do my readings better. But this book never pushed its sensibility or opinions on me. Instead it provided (and continues to provide) a growth space for me to demand and receive greater knowledge from Tarot.

Written with great respect for the reader, and Tarot itself, this book is a wonderful initiation, full of ideas and techniques.

I particularly enjoy the summary of how psychologist Abraham Maslow's concepts about self-actualization relate to some of the Tarot cards. Well done!

This wonderful book is definitely worth exploring for any serious reader. It takes the stand that the Major Arcanum cards are actually deep aspects within every person. It explores the cards of the Major Arcana, each individual card is given a simple ritual for the reader to explore their own inner archetype within each card. It gives a card-by-card journey into the user's deeper self.

As a reader for over 25 years and someone who has also studied archetypes and their influences on personal growth and development, I found the execises both simple and deeply revealing. I highly recommend this book!

This book emphasizes Jungian psychology when using the Tarot, but is not at all exclusively Jungian. I find it very helpful in learning Tarot as a tool for learning about oneself, and focusing on particular areas of self-improvement. This book has improved my readings for both myself and for others. And it's a lot of fun! My only caveat is that there is a certain amount of repetition, which one can easily skip over. Definitely a 5-star Tarot workbook.
