Great book, unlike any other tarot books I've read, I often to back to it for reference during my practice and it guides me towards experiencing the embodiment of each archetype on a deep and psychological level. I have been reading tarot for most of my life, and professionally now for about 4 years. It is great to find a text with so much information and reference to the great Carl Jung. Everything is interconnected, like a magick web, and tarot is such an amazing tool to channel that awareness.

My, what an ambitious title. I wonder if it delivers?

badly written, reasoned, researched, and compiled, but still useful
