The groups of cards determined by your birth date and name describe the theme of your life--the challenges and the gifts. Add to these "Tarot Constellations" the cards determined by the year and the day's date and you have powerful processes that allow you to flow with your life's purpose and successfully meet your challenges. Mary Greer's first book, Tarot for Your A Workbook for Personal Transformation, is an introduction to Tarot as a path to personal evolution and self-awareness. In this, her second book, Ms Greer explores the Constellations of Tarot, developing information and experiences leading to self-realization and personal harmony.

Este libro se centra en calcular tus cartas de Vida, teniendo en cuenta la numerología de tu nacimiento y de tu nombre. La parte de las cartas de nacimiento es fácil de entender y las breves explicaciones también me han gustado mucho. Sin embargo, hay una sección de las cartas del nombre que se me ha hecho un poco enrevesada de entender y de calcular y que no acabo de entender demasiado bien (todavía) qué aportan a la comprensión de nuestras potencialidades.
Pero a parte de esto, es un libro más que se va a convertir en manual de consulta de ahora en adelante. Lo malo es que no esté traducido al castellano y vaya a tener que hacer yo mis propias traducciones para trabajar con los demás (--)
Me gusta muchísimo su manera de escribir y su filosofía en relación a las cartas, porque coincide con la mía: es interesante conocer el significado que tradicionalmente se da a cada una de las cartas, pero a fin de cuentas tú eres quien le da el significado que ellas tienen para ti, personalmente.
