Let me start by saying that this is one of the best books on Tarot I’ve ever come across – and I’ve read a lot!
What makes it so special? Look at the cover. That’s not simply a random couple of cards such as you might find on most run-of-the-mill books on Tarot; those two cards – those two characters – are interacting. And that’s what this book is all about.
Deborah Lipp doesn’t tell us (yet again) the meanings of individual cards; she doesn’t even spend much time on the interpretation of different lay-outs, apart from one six-card YES-NO spread that I have now incorporated into my repertoire and started using all the time. I’m not going to spoil it by giving away the details, though: you’ll have to buy the book!
What she tells us to look for – and shows us how to find in countless examples – is how cards next to each other, above and below each other, opposite each other, may signify something quite different from the meaning of the cards on their own or even their meaning in that particular spread.
Essential reading for every Tarot reader.
