The Tarot
Author: Robert Place
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 9781585423491
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
The Tarot is one of the few books that cuts through conventional misperceptions to explore the Tarot deck as it really developed in the Middle Ages and Renaissance Europe-not, as some would suggest, in the far reaches of Egyp-tian antiquity. Mining the Hermetic, alchemical, and Neoplatonic influences behind the evolution of the deck, author Robert M. Place provides a historically grounded and compelling portrait of the Tarot's true origins, without overlooking the deck's mystical dimensions. Indeed, Place uncommonly weds reliable historiography with a practical understanding of the intuitive help and divinatory guidance that the cards can bring. He presents techniques that offer new and valuable ways to read and interpret the cards. Based on a simple three-card spread, Place's approach can be used by either the seasoned practitioner or the new inquirer.

The Vampire Tarot
Author: Robert Michael Place
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin
ISBN: 1250102804
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
The Vampire Tarot ties the tales and mythic figures associated with the vampire legend to the equally iconographic figures and forms of the tarot. This book explores the history of the vampire starting with Bram Stoker's classic 1897 novel, Dracula, as well as those writings that inspired Stoker and the vampire lore that derived from it. Stoker and his most famous work were both closely tied to the classic Rider-Waite-Coleman tarot. Now, author-illustrator Robert M. Place brings these two mythic traditions together with this extensively researched book that guides the reader through the subtleties and parallels within The Vampire Tarot, providing a guide for getting the most out of reading. Sure to delight not only tarot devotees but the general fan of the vampire mythos as well.

Book Description
A colorful alternative to traditional tarot images, "The World Spirit Tarot" features a multicultural array of characters. Instead of the traditional King, Queen, Knight and Page, the court cards are represented by the Seer, Seeker, Sibyl, and Sage. Another innovative twist is the deck's text: instead of "reversed" and "upright" meanings, it describes the "shadow" and "gift" of each card. Bearing imagery not unlike woodcuts painted with vibrant, rich colors, the unique artwork is actually hand-colored linoleum block prints-giving a stylized, otherworld quality to this exotic deck. • New ISBN • New size • New box cover design • Includes a deck bag
