The Core of the Book
Of course, the core of any book explaining the Tarot has to be a description of the cards. That is where Simple Fortunetelling with Tarot Cards really excels! For each card you'll get a description of the images as found on three of the most important Tarot decks today: the classic Waite design, the elegant Llewellyn Tarot, and the popular Crowley deck. Next the book reveals potential meanings of the card for your future. There is no guessing! Soon you will know how to lay out the cards and give accurate fortunes for yourself, friends, and loved ones.

Even More
Each card includes directions for further study and reference. Included are keywords to help in card memorization, and you will also learn the meanings of reversed cards. You'll discover myths associated with each card, plus numerological symbolism.

Simple—Not Simplistic
This book is ideal for beginners because it is clear, focused, and easy to understand. Kenner explains complex ideas simply but without removing any of the depth that someone learning the Tarot needs and should expect. Even if you have a hundred books on the Tarot, if you're not using the Tarot to give readings and predict the future, this is the book you must get.

Just imagine how you'll feel when you know you have a key to making your path to the future easier. With this book you will quickly see how you can do fortunetelling for others and hear their thanks.
