In addition to providing fine-tuned interpretations, The Big Book of Tarot Meaningssolves a second common question that comes with a tarot reading-How do I apply this knowledge to my everyday life?-by giving you an action item for each meaning, upright and reversed. A summary of what this comprehensive tarot meaning book offers: A welcoming introduction to the basics of tarot and instructions for using the book Meanings for all 78 cards of the Major and Minor Arcana, with the various interpretations for each card organized into eight categories-Beginnings, Career, Money, Love, Friends & Family, Health, Higher Guidance, and Outcome-both upright and reversed An action item for every meaning, upright and reversed, to give you clear tools to work with and steps to take to move forward in the most aligned way With The Big Book of Tarot Meanings, you'll never struggle again to know how the cards are answering you.
