Includes basic definitions of the cards, correspondences (with esoterica, gemstones, runes, astrology, Huna, color, essences, mythology, and language), and a short section describing basic layouts. Jana Riley (a superlative researcher in the world of esoteric study) has quoted card definitions from major authors to provide succinct definitions of each card in the deck. Readers will gain new insights into card interpretation and how different teachers approach the tarot. Riley has collected material from major authors (both modern and traditional) in order to provide definitions of each card in the deck. Many of these authors also offer great number of decks, ranging from the well-known Waite, Crowely Thoth, and Wirth decks, to the more modern, such as The William Blake Tarot of Creative Imagination, Tarot of the Spirit, Motherpeace Round Tarot, Shining Woman Tarot, The Mythic Tarot, The Merlin Tarot, The Dreampower Deck, The Barbara Walker Tarot, The Voyager Tarot. This the first time that students of tarot symbolism can combine card meanings from such an eclectic group of experts. This book is destined to become an invaluable resource for all interested in the tarot! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Thank you!!I have one word that comes to mind after reading through this book, WOW!!! After suffering a brain tumor and loss of most of my ability to remember I needed this book! I had to laugh at her story about a friend who stopped by for coffee one morning and remarked that she had enough material to make a library proud!! You should see my house! I have bought book after book in hopes of being able to get back to the level of reading/interpretation and joy I had before the surgery. Many books have ... Read More Rating: - All the correspondences, all the time!There may be another book out there that gathers this many correspondences together in one place. I doubt it. The astrological signs, the planets, the rune sign, the musical note, the colour, the plant or flower, the season, the gemstone, and the meaning of each card from over 13 different authors are here at your fingertips and all together on just a few pages per card. These are not "fashionable" authors. These are the heavy hitters of the tarot world across the span of tarot's ... Read More Rating: - An excellent and wisdom filled book, one of the very best out there on Tarot!Besides Jana Riley's other book, this one is the one Tarot book I reach for again and again. It's treasures and wisdom never fail to surprise me and offer new insights and perspectives. She takes all the varied authors and puts them all together in one book for you, how wonderful is that?! It's really enhanced and added to my skills and range of reading and knowledge of each card. She did an awesome job of gathering the right authors and interpertations for this book. Of course it's not ... Read More Rating:  - A Valuable ResourceJana Riley has compiled commentary and interpretations on each card from 14 Tarot writers (plus herself) so you can quickly look up a card and get 15 different perspectives on it when you're not sure what it might be saying in a particular context. The authorities included are: Angeles Arrien, Norma Cowie, Aliester Crowley, Pamela Eakins, Gail Fairfield, Mary Greer, Vicki Noble, Rachel Pollack, Jana Riley, Juliet Shurman-Burke, RJ Stewart, AE Waite, Barbara Walker, Dr James Wanless, and Oswald Wirth. ... Read More Rating: - A must have book.This book's main part is a collection of cards meanings from different major tarot book authors, collected with the purpose of getting to a card's meaning by integrating the different texts written about the card. This is, indeed, very useful - it's like appreciating a precious cut stone by looking at it from different angles and directions. I like reading the descriptions, e.g. poems by Aleister Crowley, heavy text by Waite, Angeles Arrien's text, and Mary greer's text. Read More
