Came for the tarot basics, stayed for the illustrations and surprising flower connections. I didn’t realize how beautiful the illustrations would be when I found this book, but it’s maybe my favorite part. What I’ve been doing lately is pulling cards and then looking up the page each time to find the meaning. Pretty darn accurate so far, and actually super fun to read with. 10/10.
