Book summaryArthur E. Waite, the original driving force in bringing the study and use of the Tarot into mainstream society, introduced this classic guide in the first decade of the 20th century. Waite, co-creator of the most widely used Tarot deck (Rider-Waite), represented a moderate voice in the acceptance of occult study. His handbook stands the test of time, nearly a hundred years later, as a basic introduction to the use of the Tarot deck. Readers will find a full discussion of the meanings of each of the Greater Arcana cards, what each suit of the lesser Arcana represents, and the ways in which the cards relate to one another. Instructions for divination include several ways to read the cards, allowing each reader to develop a specific method according to his or her ability, experience, and desires. With a full introduction that addresses the place of the Tarot in the modern world, Waite's book is the definitive starting point for any aspiring Tarot student. |
