In the revised version of “The Tarot Handbook,” Angeles Arrien introduces a fresh preface and extends the scope of tarot beyond mere prognostication, presenting it as a comprehensive pictorial and allegorical atlas of human awareness, rich with ancient insights. This handbook is an invaluable resource for novices and devoted tarot enthusiasts alike, offering an array of diagrams, layouts, depictions of the Thoth Deck, and other practical tools for those seeking enlightenment on personal and spiritual growth.
Arrien, an anthropologist with expertise in cross-cultural legends, elucidates how the tarot’s seventy-eight characters serve as universal portraits and archetypes embedded within our shared human narrative. She encourages readers to transcend their cultural preconceptions when engaging with tarot, and to embrace these broader, more significant universal truths. This approach enhances the precision and depth of tarot readings and broadens our comprehension of the human spirit.
Esteemed as a pivotal work in the field of tarot, “The Tarot Handbook” is essential reading for both educators and students of the discipline, as well as a compelling and insightful foray into the study of cultural myths.
