A Modern Look at the Tarot, May 4, 2000
This review is from: Tarot in Ten Minutes: A Clear and Direct Step-by-Step Method to Unlock the Secrets of the Tarot! (Paperback)
As the Tarot Host at BellaOnline.com, I come across an abundant amount of information regarding the Tarot. This book has been in my collection for a number of years, and it rarely makes its way back onto the bookshelf! Great for beginners and experienced Tarot readers alike, it provides numerous examples to explore the Tarot and apply it to specific queries about one's life situations, in modern, clearly presented terms, by interpreting the traditional properties of the Tarot and applying them to ideas embedded in lifestyles of today. I would certainly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in learning how to read and incorporate the Tarot into his/her interests.

Tarot in 10 Minutes - A Day, October 23, 2005
This review is from: Tarot in Ten Minutes: A Clear and Direct Step-by-Step Method to Unlock the Secrets of the Tarot! (Paperback)
Alright - so it's not truly Tarot in ten minutes. But, if you're willing to devote just ten minutes a day for about three months, you'll come away with a much deeper understanding of Tarot.
There are a total of 29 exercises in this book - that's about a month altogether - and I'd recommend going thru it more than once.
The first time, go thru it for yourself. You will find out a lot about the surface meanings of Tarot in the first run thru these exercises.
The second time, go thru it for others. You will find out quite a bit on how to do readings for others with these exercises.
The third time, go thru it for yourself again, but this time looking for the deeper meanings of the images.
Kaser uses imagery from the standard Rider-Waite deck of tarot cards - although these pictures would have benefited greatly from being in color, they're all right as black & white sketches.
The quick reference guide at the end serves as the 30th "lesson". There are a couple of Tarot card layouts, and a nice master index section for reading to understand the meaning of the cards in four different situations - work, love, money, and strategy.
There's also a strange index in the back that you will find refers you to the proper lesson for dealing with questions that you can find the answer to thru Tarot cards.
All in all, a worthwhile reference for those starting out with Tarot cards.
