Everything You Need to Know to Begin Reading Tarot Cards For centuries, Tarot cards have been consulted for divination by those seeking answers from the unseen realms. The Tarot has been credited with illuminating solutions to major dilemmas, and even helping people avoid future misfortunes. The Tarot experience can indeed be empowering, bringing clarity to confusing situations and showing us that we have the ability to shape our future based on the choices we make in the present. Far more than mere “fortune telling,” the Tarot is a tool for meditation and reflection, for seeing new angles that give way to broader perspectives about how we approach our lives. In this 2nd edition of Tarot for Beginners , best-selling author Lisa Chamberlain opens the door for newcomers to the Tarot in her trademark clear and straightforward manner. She dispels old myths and misconceptions about the Tarot, providing an objective look at its origins and its divinatory potential for 21st-century readers. Tailored especially for those who want to read the cards for themselves, this guide offers strategies for getting familiar with each card, a step-by-step breakdown of the process of a reading, options for tailoring the approach to suit your unique style, and advice for getting the most out of reading the cards for yourself. Most guides to the Tarot are centered on a specific deck, such as the Waite-Smith, the Tarot of Marseille, or other decks ranging from the well-known to the rather obscure. While these books can be useful and informative, their card interpretations are largely restricted to the particular deck they focus on. Tarot for Beginners takes a different approach, offering basic card meanings that can be applied to any deck, and used in tandem with any descriptions that accompany the deck you’ve chosen to work with. So no matter which Tarot deck you use, the information in this guide is relevant, providing a solid starting point for a skill you can carry with you for a lifetime. Foundations in the Art of Divination Tarot can be thought of as a kind of language through which we can hear and understand divine messages. This communication comes through the individual cards and through the symbolic system of the deck as a whole. Tarot for Beginners sets you up to learn this language with a thorough grounding in the key concepts surrounding the Tarot, including: The origins and evolution of the Tarot as a divinatory art A comprehensive overview of the Major, Minor, and Court Arcana Tips for choosing your first deck and getting acquainted with your cards Beginner tips and exercises for interpreting the cards Instructions for the basic 3-card spread and the 10-card Celtic Cross, two of the most widely-used spreads in contemporary Tarot A step-by-step process for conducting Tarot readings Advice on reading the cards for yourself Core meanings of each card in the standard Tarot deck The art of Tarot takes time and experience to master, and your willingness to study the cards, practice reading, and hone your intuition will be key to your development as a Tarot reader.

Good value for money
My partner decided she wanted to get into this sort of thing so we purchased these cards. Mainly due to the fact they appeal to amateurs and was reasonably priced.

Easy to understand
Good for beginners and very easy to look up quickly the card meanings. Probably not enough in-depth for more experienced readers. Definitely would recommend for someone starting out and learning the basics

As beginner user, it is really helpful
Fast delivery, the book arrived in perfect condition. Easy to use guide for beginners. I really think it covers basic information to start the understanding behind tarot. Not enough to learn everything so I complemented with another guides that hopefully will help me to go deeper in my knowledge. It is a handy guide to have to hand when practising readings. Maybe I'm missing some more examples of spreads to try out. For the price I paid, is fine.

A good practical introduction to Wiccan philosophy.
Haven't read it yet (it's for Xmas, as controversial as that sounds), but I love Lisa's books. They're practical, down to earth, & explain things very well for a learner of the 'Craft'. Having bought & read Lisa's 'Wicca For Beginners', I found her style easy to read, informative, & with a common-sense appeal. This is one of seven of her books I have bought for the holidays (& for my wife to wrap up for a Xmas present, I like presents I've chosen for myself) & I'm sure that eventually I'll end up with a full set of all her books.

Exactly what I wanted!
This is a great book from beginner like me who might be unsure or even a little intimidated by the tarot. The author understands that a new reader might not know how cards correlate in a spread and she shows how even negative cards (7 of swords! Oh no!) can be read as positive. Very nice. Very grateful. Thank you!

Simple and to the point. My go-to for card interpretations.
I recently started getting into Tarot again and this has become my go to guidebook for the simple layouts and clearly written card interpretations. The "introduction to Tarot" field is crowded with contenders and I own several other books on this subject, including a couple with bright illustrations, but this simple guidebook is my favorite one of all and the one I keep going to again and again. I do recommend getting it in paperback form because you'll be flipping through it a lot. Get this book if you have a Rider-Waite deck - it's all you need starting out, and you won't be disappointed.
