Tarot by Cynthia Giles

This book on tarot offers a complete guide to tarot cards - their origin, meaning and mystical powers. After defining the structure and symbolism of the 78-card deck, both major and minor arcana, the author traces tarot's history from the mists of antiquity to the present, and shows how it works from a scientific and metaphysical viewpoint. She also explores suggested ties to mystical systems like Bakkalism and alchemy, and interprets the tarot's links to sexuality, the unconscious, and the imagination. The book concludes with a "how-to" section, offering advice on everything from selecting the appropriate deck to reading the cards for divination, meditation and inner growth.
