The Cosmic Tarot book

by Jean Huets, Norbert Losche (Illustrator)

"Overall this is one of the better books I have seen of this type.... Highly recommended.” — Michele Jackson, Tarot Passages The Cosmic Tarot book is an inspiring interpretation of the tarot, and an ideal companion to the Cosmic Tarot deck by artist Norbert Lösche. Each Major Arcana card is described in terms of “The Cosmos,” “The Human Community,” and “The Individual.” The Minor Arcana cards focus on personal ambitions, hopes and fears, and loves, with special attention to relationships. Says Michele Jackson, “Overall this is one of the better books I have seen of this type. The author is obviously well versed on the subject of Tarot and has skillfully applied her knowledge to this deck. Highly recommended.”(A previous edition of this book was published by U.S. Games Systems, Inc.)
