The Big Book of Tarot Meanings - by Sam Magdaleno (Paperback)

About the Book

The Big Book of Tarot Meanings is a comprehensive guide to tarot card meanings for every category from work and finance to health and relationships written by beloved tarot influencer, Sam the Cosmic Witch.

Book Synopsis

Find precise answers to your urgent questions--The Big Book of Tarot Meanings takes you beyond typical, generic card meanings by breaking each card down into eight interpretation categories.

Interpreting card meanings is the most exciting aspect of reading tarot. However, it is also the most challenging, especially if you are new to the art. For example, basic tarot interpretation would have you understand that The Lovers card has to do with relationships--but what if your question had to do with career or health? How are you left to interpret the meaning?

The Big Book of Tarot Meanings solves these dilemmas by breaking down each card 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 Meaningssolves a second common question that comes with a tarot reading--How do I apply this knowledge to my everyday life?--by giving you an action item for each meaning, upright and reversed.

A summary of what this comprehensive tarot meaning book offers:

• A welcoming introduction to the basics of tarot and instructions for using the book
• Meanings for all 78 cards of the Major and Minor Arcana, with the various interpretations for each card organized into eight categories--Beginnings, Career, Money, Love, Friends & Family, Health, Higher Guidance, and Outcome--both upright and reversed
• An action item for every meaning, upright and reversed, to give you clear tools to work with and steps to take to move forward in the most aligned way

With The Big Book of Tarot Meanings, you'll never struggle again to know how the cards are answering you.
