Well, It arrived today! Hurrah! Now, it will sit on a shelf until I have time (probably in the summer) to read it!

LOL

But I LOVE to add books to the collection!

Here is a link to the next tarot deck I want (did I mention that I wanted to collect them?) Oh the Poor SO LOL

Ive heard its a great book and would like to get it myself one day :D

I got the Tarot Companion through my door last week, thanks to Dagda's recommendation (thanks hun!) and have just started to flick through it and read it ~ really interesting and covers allot of aspects of tarot! Ill try you all more when Ive read more.

Im currently reading the Sea Priestess by Dion Fortune ~ wow! Just getting to the exciting bits (half way through) ~ if your after a magickal novel this one is amazing!!

Your next deck of cards looks very interesting ~ all the cards seem quite diverse and different in style to one another!!
Hope you love them when you get it! and Best wishes for your collection :D

One of my all time favorite tarot books is "Tarot and the Journey of the Hero" by Hajo Banzhaf. It tells the story of fool's journey by going in-depth on each of the major arcana cards. The writer relates the fools journey to our own lives. It's just a really great book. IMO :)

Awww, I thought Xois was back. :(

I have 78 Degrees, it is a tough read for me. Not that it is difficult to understand at all. But I usually only can find time to read right before I go to bed and I am usually way to tired to learn/remember and comprehend anything deeper than a trash novel.

I find that her description and discussion of the cards are really good and very much in depth, however.
