The Original Rider Waite Tarot is the most popular and widely used
tarot card deck in the world. First issued in 1910, each card is
rich in symbolism and striking in its design. The deck is
accompanied by an invaluable instructional book, The Key to the
Tarot explaining the history and usage of the tarot cards, of which
there are 78 divided into the Major and Minor Arcanas. The book can
be used in conjunction with any set of tarot cards, but it was
written in particular to accompany the 78-card Rider Waite tarot
deck which was designed by Pamela Colman Smith in accordance with
A. E. Waite's instructions. The Key to the Tarot explains the
history and symbolism of the cards and gives instructions on how to
use them for purposes of divination. This edition includes a
specially commissioned foreword by Liz Greene.
The enigmatic and richly illustrative tarot deck reveals a host
of strange and iconic mages, such as The Tower, The Wheel of
Fortune, The Hanged Man and The Fool: over which loom the
terrifying figures of Death and The Devil. The 21 numbered playing
cards of tarot have always exerted strong fascination, way beyond
their original purpose, and the multiple resonances of the deck are
ubiquitous. From T. S. Eliot and his "wicked pack of cards" in "The
Waste Land" to the psychic divination of Solitaire in Ian Fleming's
"Live and Let Die"; and from the satanic novels of Dennis Wheatley
to the deck's adoption by New Age practitioners, the cards have in
modern times become inseparably connected to the occult. They are
now viewed as arguably the foremost medium of prophesying and
foretelling. Yet, as the author shows, originally the tarot were
used as recreational playing cards by the Italian nobility in the
Renaissance. It was only much later, in the 18th and 19th
centuries, that the deck became associated with esotericism before
evolving finally into a diagnostic tool for mind, body and spirit.
This is the first book to explore the remarkably varied ways in
which tarot has influenced culture. Tracing the changing patterns
of the deck's use, from game to mysterious oracular device, Helen
Farley examines tarot's emergence in 15th century Milan and
discusses its later associations with astrology, kabbalah and the
Age of Aquarius.
A follow up to MJ Cullinane's bestselling Crow Tarot, this oracle deck
offers readers a way to connect and learn from these highly
intelligent, captivating birds.
With an ominous croaking call or foreboding flurry of black wings,
crows can appear as mystical omens. We barely notice them, perched on
tree branches and rooftops, dark sentinels carefully observing our
world through intelligent black eyes.
But if you look beyond their 'murderous' reputation you will find that
crows form deep bonds, mourn at crow 'funerals', play, offer gifts to
humans they like and exact justice by dive-bombing humans who have
wronged them – remembering the faces and cars of human friends and foes
alike. Their perceptiveness and resourcefulness allow them to flourish
in forests, towns and even cities alongside us.
Each card in this oracle deck offers a message to the reader from the
fascinating behaviour of these birds, from the sacred space of a nest
to the community of a murder of crows, from the gift of a shiny trinket
to the curiosity of a city crow peering into a human home.

well as simple spreads for easy readings. Packaged in a sturdy,
decorative gift box, this devious deck of tarot cards is the

into the eight most-queried categories, starting with Beginnings
and ending with Outcome, with a meaning for each category, upright
and reversed. No longer will you have to vaguely extrapolate
meaning and insight for diverse questions from the same generic
description often given in other beginner tarot books. In addition
to providing fine-tuned interpretations, The Big Book of Tarot

reading-How do I apply this knowledge to my everyday life?-by

using the book Meanings for all 78 cards of the Major and Minor
Arcana, with the various interpretations for each card organized
