Tarot of Mermaids (Lo Scarabeo Series) (English and Spanish Edition)

The Sirens, fascinating creatures of the Imagination, take their place on the stage of the Tarot. This contemporary deck evokes dreams and sensations through both their graceful beauty and the classical symbolism of the Tarot. Give in to the song and let these cards lead you through the depths of your subconscious to find the answers you seek.

 

Publisher’s Review:

Did you know that when Persephone was kidnapped, the gods gave mermaids wings so they could go look for her? I didn’t. Did you know that in the fairy tales of northern Italy, “melusine” or “anguane” were ethereal feminine creatures with the tails of snakes who live in ponds and swamps? I didn’t. Clearly there is a lot I didn’t know about mermaid lore before studying this deck. So I began the journey full of anticipation.

The Tarot of Mermaids does a wonderful job of inviting us into the dark waters [read more]

Tarot of the Magical Forest (English and Spanish Edition)

Take a Tarot walk through an enchanted forest.

Throughout human history and across every culture, there have been legends, myths, and tales of talking animals. This delightful Tarot takes advantage of this by using animals on all of the cards, adding to the Rider-Waite-Smith symbolism that was already there.

The Major Aracana cleverly features sheep, lions, bears, pigs, hedgehogs, and kangaroos, adding a wonderful feel to the cards that is happy and basic. The Strength card, which shows a lamb and a lion nuzzling each other, has to be the sweetest version of this card ever. The Sun card shows a baby kangaroo in his mother’s pouch in a field of sunflowers under a huge sun happily waving a little red flag with innocent, blissful joy.

The Minor Arcana suits, while traditionally named, each feature a specific animal: Cups have bunnies, Pentacles have foxes, Wands have frogs, and Swords have cats. These choices brilliantly represent the suit qualities. Bunnies bring forth feelings of warmth and sweetness. Foxes are thought to be clever. Cats can be seen as intelligent and emotionally distant. Frogs, well, they like games (leap frog, anyone?).

So the 4 of Cups shows a bunny under a tree with three cups in the foreground and one being offered by a hand emerging from a cloud (like the RWS). This bunny has her eyes closed and is very much at peace, using creative visualization to manifest what she wants.

This refreshing, whimsical, and wonderful deck will surprise you every time you use its immediately evocative images.

Tarot Made Easy

Here is a real breakthrough in interpreting the tarot!
If you’ve ever been intrigued by the tarot but were confounded by the complexities of multi-card spreads and the vague interpretations given in most books, this is the guide for you.
With Tarot Made Easy you can easily interpret the meaning of any card and apply it to the particular circumstances of your life. With the simple process outlined here, you need only choose one tarot card and then consult one (or several) of the 32 categories listed under each card — including Romance, Travel, Career, Finances, Friends, and Special Guidance — to discover the card’s specific message for you.
For example, if you want to know about your romantic future and the Queen of Cups turns up, you may find that the standard description given is “an honest, devoted woman; loving intelligence and happiness.” How should you interpret this? But with Tarot Made Easy, the Queen of Cups Romance category tells you that “someone will enter your life in whom you will be very interested…and you will meet this person very close to your home, if not outside your front door.” This easy but accurate system banishes the vague interpretations found in most books and gives you the immediate, specific insights you need.
