In this unique volume Toni reveals her secrets and shares her knowledge from over 20 years as a tarot reader. The System of Symbols has the full symbolic meaning of each tarot card, how to interpret each tarot card, including reversed tarot interpretations, true life examples and key words for easy use. There is also information on the use of numbers in tarot, part of the art which is often forgotten these days, and yet is vital to a true understanding of tarot.
The System of Symbols is illustrated throughout with black and white images of Toni's own tarot designs. She also includes association of the cards to the Bach Flower Remedies.
Toni Allen is the author of the Jake Talbot Investigates mystery series, which began with Visiting Lilly (2014) and continues with Saving Anna (2015). She is currently working on the third book, Finding Louisa, due out in 2017.
