Learn how tarot cards can unlock the secrets of the past, present, and future in the latest book of the Modern Witchcraft series. For centuries, witches have used the tarot to seek insights into the past, present, and future. Today, a new generation is discovering the wonder of divining through the cards. Expert tarot reader Skye Alexander shares the many meanings of the cards within the Major and Minor Arcana. Featuring twelve of the most popular spreads and easy-to-follow explanations of how tarot readings can be interpreted, The Modern Witchcraft Book of Tarot is the essential guide for successful, insightful tarot readings. Review: Must have for beginners - Amazing book if you are just getting started in tarot. Cool facts about the history, great explanations of major/minor arcana and the different suits. Overall love this book and use it in all of my readings!! Review: Every TAROTIST should own this book! - I have been reading Tarot for a few years now, both for myself and others; and I've always wanted a more thorough reference guide to help me improve my craft but let me tell you, I should've bought this ages ago! I think it's an awesome companion for all of your tarot decks, especially those mini/pocket ones with no booklet included; at least until you become more comfortable with your own unique interpretations. Even then, you can still utilize this text and display on your bookshelf! It's gorgeously designed, possessing almost a vintage aesthetic and quality to it, maybe the main image is a little off-center but beautiful nonetheless, wonderfully organized (a snippet of the table of contents is above), RWS images are used to illustrate the cards, and really it's just an all-around great value for your money. Honestly, I mainly bought this to sort of pick-and-choose the sections I need at whatever time but I'm reading straight through at the moment and it is such an easy, thoughtful read, very knowledgeable. I'm not saying it's without faults (I don't really know which yet) nor that I'll always agree on certain points but regardless, I adore it!!

Great Book and Great Read
I couldnโt wait to receive it and read it! I read the first few pages of the book and itโs very interesting, wisdom and knowledge of magick. I noticed that it does explain in details of reading tarot cards. I chose to buy a used book instead of a new one. I believe in preserving old books!

perfection at its finest! A+++
so iโm *very* new to tarot. I had no idea what I was doing or where to even begin. I just kinda jumped in lol I watched a few videos & bought a few books before this one, nothing really helped, it just made me overwhelmed. Then I found this one!!! My biggest advice is to start with THIS book! Itโs so easy to understand which helped strengthen my own intuition and connect to my deck. Im using a RWS deck with this book because it definitely helps me to see the same image on the page as I see on my card. The book itself is hauntingly gorgeous! The cover, the pages, the purposeful โstainsโ on the edges makes it feel like itโs already broke in and very wise, like a witchy grandmother passed it down to me haha! There are spells and spreads in the back of the book, I havenโt gotten that far yet but just reading through them made me so excited! It has become a very scared book in my library and iโm very blessed to have it. For anyone getting into to tarot I could not recommend this enough! โจ

You'd be making a great choice buying this book!
I have been interested in Tarot for years. But like most people I was a bit intimidated by the how much there is to learn about and the complexity of this sacred oracle. A lot of other books and writings about it can come off a bit overwhelming to a new reader but not in this case. Skye Alexander has provided a lot of great fundamental education in this collection from its rich history and card meanings to How to start reading the cards in spreads. It also includes a section on spell-work with the Tarot which would be the only (small) part of the book I chose not to utilize as most spells involved damaging your cards which I cant bring myself to do to even my stater deck that I have since moved on from. But aside from that this book is gives you a great foundation and reference guide that I still am using daily. Less importantly but a wonderful bonus is this book is very well made and attractive to the eye and looks great on your shelf boasting a nice textured hard cover and pages with a vintage feel. For a beginner this is a really good start it will absolutely be a great confidence builder to doing your own readings.

The card descriptions
So, I do love this book. I think it is great for overall reference to the tarot card meanings, and also gives great insight for how to respectfully treat a tarot reading, how to do it, spreads, etc., but for me personally Iโm not the biggest fan of the description for the card meanings? I think they overall have a negative connotation, which isnโt bad, and I think for some people it would be perfect, but if youโre like me and have a less intense take on tarot, or rather like to see the many different ways a card can be interpreted, I wouldnโt recommend this just because at times the tarot card meanings can be quite negative in this book, or lack depth that Iโve seen in other books. Again, it is my PERSONAL take. If I had a daughter getting into tarot, I wouldnโt want her to use this as a beginner because I think it could easily give her a little bit of a bad experience in a way? While the meanings are very helpful if you already kind of understand tarot, and are able to discern when certain things donโt apply, I donโt think itโs great for beginners. The descriptions are more very literal meanings without depth rather than the spiritual and the personal journey aspect that I personally prefer with tarot. I think the word โbluntโ is the best word I can use, which is most definitely some peopleโs style for tarot and I love it, but for me personally, I really value the uplifting and soul reaching aspect of tarot, which I donโt feel this book completely touches.

Perfect book to learn tarot
Beautiful design and layout, beautiful paper, and actually helpful content. The book is well written, the content organised in a way that eases the start into the craft, but also works well as a reference work to look up meanings you havent memorized yet. The only thing i dont like, is that the beatiful handmade paper doesnt easily let you turn the pages. But it looks amazing. The most important part: I am so glad the language is actually understandable and not redundant rambling as many books on the topic i have seen, bc that infuriates me. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn tarot.
