The Secrets of the Tarot: Origins, History, and Symbolism - $19.00
 
by Barbara G. Walker
Paperback, 260 pages, black & white illustrations. Copyright 1984, HarperSanFrancisco.
From the back of the book: "The Secrets of the Tarot offers a thorough and distinctive in-depth introduction to the mysterious, often misunderstood world of the Tarot cards. Barbara G. Walker insightfully probes the origins, history and symbolism of Tarot, and shares her discoveries with great clarity and intelligence. Readers will learn not only the modern implications of the Tarot, but the fascinating history of its pagan roots and Christian adaptations as well.
  Barbara Walker points out that, although heatedly opposed by the clergy, the card symbols were quite religious, and she reveals the undeniable links between the Tarot and early cults of the Christian era. Walker's thoughtful, scholarly investigation of the Tarot cards also brings to light the indisputable yet often overlooked relationship between the Tarot and a matriarchal belief system. Traces of long-suppressed Goddess worship abound in these cards, revealing amazing and significant proof of the matriarchal roots of Tarot and crucial links between the cards and the vital dimensions of female sexuality. Walker covers the full deck, including those cards which fell out of use over the centuries.
  Barbara Walker gives the Tarot cards added modern relevance by providing new renderings of all the cards (based on her research and insights), presented in 78 black and white photos. The Secrets of the Tarot examines each major symbol in detail to give perhaps the richest appreciation of the cards to date. Walker also discusses methods of laying out the cards for personal meditation and self-exploration. The Secrets of the Tarot reaches far beyond superstitious fortune-telling and achieves the status of a balanced and enlightening treatise on a perennially fascinating subject."

Tarot of Ceremonial Magick : A Pictorial Synthesis of Three Great Pillars of Magick (Astrology, Enochian Magick, Goetia) - $14.95, This book is signed by the author.
  by Lon Milo DuQuette
Paperback, 275 pages, black and white illustrations. Copyright 1995. Samuel Weiser, Inc.
This book is signed by the author: From the back of the book: "In this ground-breaking book, Lon Milo DuQuette explains the symbology of the cards in his Tarot of Ceremonial Magick, a new deck published by U.S. Games. The concept is a breakthrough for occultists of all paths. Each card is illustrated with a list of the Zodiacal, Enochian, Ceremonial, Goetic, Tattvic and Elemental components. DuQuette explains how the cards relate to each other and makes immediately accessible the more difficult conceptual connections that Crowley made so easily. Through DuQuette's wit and decades of practical knowledge of magical practice, students of the arcane arts can gain a whole new level of understanding of how and why magic works."

The Tarot of the Magi - $10.95
 
by Carlyle A. Pushong
Paperback, 107 pages, black and white illustrations, copyright 1994, Newcastle publishing.
From the back of the book: ""The Tarot was the sole book of the ancient Magi." - Eliphas Levi"  "There were few authors in the 1960s who attempted a concise layperson's approach to an understanding of the mnemonic value of the Tarot. Carlyle A. Pushong is preeminently one of the few. Originally published in 1967, The Tarot of the Magi clearly indicates the esoteric and exoteric shades of meaning which lie hidden in each of the twenty-two of life's paths in the Major Arcana. 
  Aside from the divinatory aspects of the Tarot embodying both the Major and Minor Arcana, much Arcane knowledge is skillfully interwoven, knowledge which is in essence the key to the operative know-how of White Magic. A natural clairvoyant, Pushong's approach is unhurried, deliberate, and never dogmatic. He leaves the doors of inquiry open to the earnest seeker of truth, for he believed spiritual illumination hastens slowly.
  The Tarot of the Magi is an uncommon book by an unusual man. Pushong, an end product of the public school system, claimed that any minimal knowledge he possessed was forcibly imparted by the Irish Christian brothers of whom he spoke with great affection. He was a World War II officer, journalist, schoolmaster, college lecturer, and established civil servant. Well-informed in the spiritual beliefs of the Orient with particular reference to the philosophy of the Vendata, Pushong's concise explication of the Tarot will do much to encourage and popularize this most ancient and accurate of divinatory systems."

The Tarot: Methods, Mastery, and More - $12.00
 
by Cynthia Giles
Paperback, 237 pages, Copyright 1996, Fireside Books.
From the back of the book: "In her first book, The Tarot: History, Mystery, and Lore, Cynthia Giles took a fresh look at the Tarot as an evolving construct of the human imagination. In The Tarot: Methods, Mastery, and More, she explores the present and future of working with the Tarot, in search of possibilities that transcend the obvious. 
  Engaging on both a theoretical and a practical level, The Tarot: Methods, Mastery, and More rediscovers the roots of divination in language and story, delves into the uses of Tarot for wellness of mind and body, explains the alchemical illuminations that Tarot can bring to personal growth, and raises the provocative idea that Tarot can contribute to planetary regeneration. A new vision of Tarot mastery emerges, one that goes beyond the achievement of skill to become the transformation of self. And along the way, practical insights, whimsical excursions, and unexpected characters create an intriguing picture of today's Tarot. 
  Just as any practice - from athletics to music to Zen - can be a path to enlightenment, work with the richly historical, deeply archetypal imagery of the Tarot offers extraordinary opportunities. As a guide to these potentials, The Tarot: Methods, Mastery, and More will enrich beginners and experts alike."

Tarot: The Path to Wisdom - Our price $2.00, (Originally - $9.95)
  
by Joseph D'Agostino
Paperback, 117 pgs., Black and white illustrations. Copyright 1976, 1994, First published in 1994 by Samuel Weiser, Inc. 
From the back of the book: "This marvelously lucid book makes accessible the practical use of the tarot in daily living. Using the new Universal Rider-Waite deck as a basis, D'Agostino delineates the meditative symbolism that is inherent in each of the 22 cards of the Major or Greater Arcana. The latter portion of the book deals with the use of the tarot as a means of divination and includes brief definitions of the qualities of the 78 cards that comprise the Greater and Lesser Arcana. He outlines the ancient Celtic method of divination and the 21-card spread, and concludes with a discussion on the Qabalah, The Tree of Life, and Western civilization's present preoccupation with new rituals, cults and gurus. D'Agostino's insights into the tarot and its use as a tool for enlightening daily meditation make this book a valuable addition to tarot literature."

Detailed are excellent lists of correspondences, including mythological figures and their function in relation to the specific Path experience. Here is a well-presented, extremely usable book." - Ray Buckland, Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft

The reader will also find Ms. Reed's pleasant, conversational style evoking some very personal responses. There is much here that any reader can relate to his/her own experience of self-actualization." - Ed Fitch, Magical Rites from the Crystal Well
