I own a new age bookshop in the U.S. When customers ask me for books on how to read the tarot cards I always recommend the great Rachel Pollack. She is the world's expert on the tarot. This book is great for teenagers who are new to tarot. It suggests spreads especially suited to the needs of young women. This book is selling very well.
My mother gave me this book as a gift. It is a marvellous intro to the cards. I am 21 and am very interested in mystical topics. Ms. Pollack is a major leader in tarot and writes a book that is totally approachable. She is a sweet soul who cares about her readers. I plan to buy her books 'Forest Of Souls' and 'The Kabbalah Tree.
