There are plenty of book out there devoted to tarot. Some our devoted to using tarot to divine the future, and many more discuss using the tarot as a tool for self-reflection. When I was offered the opportunity to review \u201cThe Watkins Tarot Handbook: A Practical System of Self-Discovery\u201d by Naomi Ozaniec, I was expecting a vaguely new age, self-help book that utilized tarot. What I got was a jaw dropping, initiatory experience.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ Ozaniec\u2019s reading of tarot is that, \u201cThe language of the Tarot is that of the symbol in many forms: numerical, mythical, elemental, zodiacal, alchemical and Hermetic,\u201d and that it\u2019s, \u201ca visual representation of the Western Esoteric Tradition.” This certainly isn\u2019t the first book about tarot that I\u2019ve seen make these observations, however \u201cThe Watkins Tarot Handbook\u201d exceeds expectations when it comes to proving its point. Sure, like many books about tarot, you\u2019ll find images of classic tarot cards, but in this book, you\u2019ll also see the Wheel of Correspondences (as produced by Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki), Strephon Kaplan Williams model of The Seven Archetypes, a table of Hebrew letters, the Tree of Life, the Psychosynthesis Egg, and so much more. Ozaniec\u2019s version of tarot is a full-on initiation in the Western magical traditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Watkins Tarot Handbook\u201d by Naomi Ozaniec is an amazing resource for any interested in anything occult. This book teaches you tarot and just so much more.<\/p>\n
