Tarot Disassembled Guidebook: Deconstructing the Symbols…

This fully illustrated guide presents a picture of each card reduced down to the bare minimum: so the Fool card is a satchel, a dog, the sun, a feather, a flower, a mountain. Even without the actual Fool, these symbols speak for themselves, and the card is still undeniably recognizable. Once you do this with all the cards, the rich symbolism becomes clear. For people looking to find deeper card connections in their readings, this book is for you. Although this book is based on the symbology of the RWS tarot—arguably the most iconic and widely used deck in the world—once you understand the disassembling of tarot symbols, you can begin to apply this deconstructing technique to other decks, finding the inner patterns. This unique and innovative guidebook includes keywords, astrological and planetary associations, and elemental associations for each tarot card. It can be used with any deck based on the RWS or as a companion to the deck.
