The book is pretty interesting. If wanting to combine tarot and chakras this can be a nice tool. you get an introduction to chakras (own chapter). Some nice reading and things to do.

Thank you to NetGalley for giving me a free digital Advanced Reading Copy (ARC e-book) of this title. I really enjoyed it! Tarot Healer by Leeza Robertson was a great read. I love learning about the tarot; I have been studying it since I was a teen and I am always so excited to learn new information about the art. I thought it was really interesting the way that the book connected the tarot readings to the chakras, and I am ready to try some new spreads! I think this book (paired with tarot) is a great tool for helping readers to become better aware of how thoughts and feelings impact the energy centers of the body.

A brilliant and informative book for anyone interested in the chakras and the tarot. Extremely well written and with an easy flow to the subject and exercises.

This is definitely a book I will be buying when published as I got a lot from it and thoroughly enjoyed the subject matter and the exercises.

Thank you Llewellyn and NetGalley.

As both a Tarot reader and Reiki Master I was excited for this book and it did not disappoint. I found it to be a nice overview of the chakras and their properties as well as dipping toes into tarot. I recommend this to novices and experts alike and will be revisiting it in the future!

I think that people are beginning to become more aware of and interested in the idea of chakras as they relate to yoga and wellness. Robertson focuses on using tarot as a way to access some of the underlying issues blocking chakras. I think that this book would make a good program to follow for things like workshops or special yoga programs.

'Tarot Healer' takes the reader on a journey through the chakras using the tarot as a guide and tool for healing the mind, body, and soul.

The author dives deeply into each chakra, explaining its function and purpose and multidimensions that when blocked, can contribute to disruptions in your emotions and overall wellbeing. Each chapter featured many tarot spreads and exercises to unlayer the blockages and ultimately discover the healing potential of each chakra. It's a new way of working with the tarot that will create a deeper and richer experience in your readings.

I did quite a few readings for myself using the spreads and exercises featured in this book and it was a cathartic and emotional experience for me. I never thought to use tarot cards in this way before and I believe this is the proper way of working with the cards. It seems like a more authentic and initiatory approach to cartomancy instead of the superficial approach that has unfortunately saturated this divinatory system.

This is not a book that gives descriptions of each tarot card, so for beginners,
finding contextual healing meanings might be tricky. This is not a book that you can read through without picking up a deck of cards. As you read each chapter, work through the exercises so you can better understand the chakras.

I hope the author will create her own tarot chakra deck because I think it would be a nice companion to this book!
