Have you wanted to know your future? Did you wonder if today will be a good day or a bad day? Ever wonder what problems you have had in the past and how to resolve them? Then you may have come across the book you are looking for. Famous Occultist S. L. MacGregor Mathers gives a short discourse on the Tarot which is a reprint of a short pamphlet printed in 1888. Personally I have always been apprehensive when it comes to divination of any sort, however, I liked Mathers approach. Although its a short treatise with a brief runabout of the history and meanings, it is implicitly implied how to set up the reading and how to read it. Stating also that oneself be the sole reader as one should own their own cards and do their own readings. Reason being, if my intuition serves me based on his other works, is the energy that surrounds the deck you hold is not tainted with other less informed beings so the message will not be dulluted with too much mixed eneregy. Unless you have your own set of meanings, then the interpretations in this book will be adequate for any beginner. Well designed book that is easy to read an informative. If you enjoy Mathers and are a fan of the Tarot, this is a good introduction.
