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.

Here is a real breakthrough in interpreting the tarot!

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.

This groundbreaking tarot deck reimagines every card as a thrilling study of opposites. You'll take a tarot journey like never before, exploring mirrored versions of each card's stunning illustration. Your readings will be transformed as you watch the Fool dance with himself, the Hermit gaze at his alter ego, and the High Priestess match wits with her twin. You'll see every answer from two perspectives, giving you greater wisdom in all that you do.

Reading tarot cards is both an art and a mindfulness practice. In this guided journal, artist Yoshi Yoshitani guides spiritually curious readers through the universal symbolism in each of the 78 cards in a tarot deck, offering space to reflect on your own understanding of the cards, as well as activities to strengthen your tarot-reading skills.

Yoshitani describes the art and archetypes of the Major and Minor Arcana in Tarot of the Divine, outlining the cards' key interpretations and visual symbols. Throughout, the vivid art and fascinating background prompt you to explore the Fool's Journey, interact with the cards in new ways, and apply your learnings to any of your favorite decks. Yoshitani's reflection questions provide a thoughtful avenue to approach your tarot readings, encouraging you to record your findings along the way.

Study the archetypes, connect with your favorite cards, and strengthen your intuition using Yoshitani's Tarot of the Divine as an anchor for learning.
