Critics Review
“With clean, clear, thoughtful writing, interesting history, at-a-glance tables, and plenty of stimulating how-to, this book expertly handles the Tarot deck’s aristocracy.”
“This book is an entertaining and thorough look at a neglected aspect of the tarot cards–the effect and relationship of the ‘people,’ or court cards, on divinatory readings. The author has created a unique system whereby the court cards can be ‘read’ to reveal individuals in our lives and the roles that they play.” * deTraci Regula, author of The Mysteries of Isis *“Practicioners and students of tarot will find integrative perspectives, fresh lucid significances, and practical applications in this resource guide.” * Joi Eden, New Age Retailer, November-December 2003, Vol.17 No.7 *“I feel that this author offers a fresh, distinctly unique approach to working with the tarot Courts.” * Diana McMahon-Collis, Tarot Association of The Brtish Isles, Autumn 2003 *“By looking at court cards from so many different perspectives, the author helps tarot readers everywhere better understand one of the more difficult parts of the deck.” * Rachel Pollack, author of Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom: A Book of Tarot *“Never before has a comprehensive study of the origin, meaning, and significance of the sixteen court cards been written. The Tarot Court Cards offers historical and mystical insights into the evolution of the court cards and their diverse meaning and uses. A treasure of a book.” * Isha Lerner, Author of Inner Child Cards *“A comprehensive and practical resource guide that offers valuable insight into our personal relationships. No other book addresses the sixteen royalty cards so thoroughly.” * Angeles Arrien, PH.D., Author of The Tarot Handbook *“This refreshingly straightforeward book is easy and quick to read, but intelligent and thoughtful.” * Nellie Levine, TBP Review, June 2004 *“With clean, clear, thoughtful writing, interesting history, at-a-glance tables, and plenty of stimulating how-to, this book expertly handles the Tarot deck’s aristocracy.” * Stephanie Mills, ForeWord Magazine, Jan.-Feb., 2005 *
