The World. You shall find the answers you seek, and your curiosity will be fulfilled. For centuries, tarot has offered its practitioners a resource to ask questions about their fate and that of the people and the world around them. For some it's a meditative exercise, for others a magical tool.

You'll learn the occult secrets behind the imagery of the cards and discover who put them there, and why. Plus, you'll find an in-depth guide to the meanings of the 22 cards of the Major Arcana and the 56 cards in the suits of the Minor Arcana, and easy-to-follow diagrams and guides to the most popular kinds of card readings, so that you too can interpret the mysteries of the tarot.
