Illuminated

Develop your intuition and hone your personal tarot practice with this journal featuring descriptions of each card, thought-provoking questions, and space to reflect on the spiritual connections you make with every tarot reading. Illuminated: A Journal for Your Tarot Practice is at once a primer on tarot and a sacred space to record and reflect on your readings. As you cultivate a personal practice--whether you pull a daily card to set an intention or a spread to ask for guidance on a time-sensitive obstacle--this journal is a place to work through tough challenges, come to surprising conclusions, and see things clearly. An informative introduction includes tips for beginners followed by a glossary of the seventy-eight cards in a standard deck. The common interpretations are listed for each card, along with a pair of corresponding questions for the reader to reflect on. The Fool card, for example, typically represents a curious, fearless novice who is open to change and ready for anything. When you pull the Fool, you'll be asked to consider How can I be more playful and less fearful? What journey is about to begin? As you strengthen your understanding of tarot, Illuminated will help light the way to more introspective readings and a deeper connection to the spiritual world around you.

Exploring the Tarot

The Tarot is one of the most popular tools of divination available today. Correctly used, it can be an extraordinary tool for training the mind to work intuitively and to interact with archetypal forces.

Exploring the Tarot reveals the true nature of the Tarot as a system for interacting with the love, wisdom, and power of the basic patterns of divine life. Author Carl Japikse outlines an intelligent method for using the Tarot, comments in depth on the process of interpreting its symbols, and presents transcripts from five Tarot readings, demonstrating in detail how to use the Tarot to answer questions of your own.
