Tarot (In Focus) provides the essentials to quickly get you started practising tarot card reading. Tarot cards and readings have been used since the eighteenth century as a divination tool in seeking answers to past, present, and future events, in addition to guidance and support. Their popularity continues to this day. But how do you start? With Tarot (In Focus), author Steven Bright breaks down the essentials to get you started right away. Bright first thoroughly explains each of the major and minor arcanas, then presents both traditional and newer tarot card placements (called tarot spreads). He also provides professional tips and tricks to becoming a successful tarot reader. Also included in this edition is a handy wall chart that details each of the 78 tarot cards and their characteristics and associations, as an additional learning tool. The In Focus series applies a modern approach to teaching the classic body, mind, and spirit subjects, using expert authors in their respective fields and featuring relevant visual material to smartly and purposely illustrate key topics within each subject. As a bonus, each book is packaged with index cards and/or a poster, to give readers a quick, go-to reference guide containing the most important information on the subject, for easy practice and retention.
