The Book of Tarot

I'll admit, my reasons for reading this book were: to gain an insight on tarot cards and to understand why my friend can always say 'pick a card' and somehow whatever she says makes so much sense at that moment in time.
This book is more than a guide. It provides clear insights into mystic and the author's decision to focus on tarot to harness energy, clarity and a sense of purpose is evident throughout the book.
I'm glad my curiosity led me to this book. Thanks NetGalley for the ARC, wish it was in digital format for Kindle.

I went into this book to grasp a more understanding of how it works but this book was so much more than that. It was truly eye opening and simiply intriguing. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

A very good book about tarot that helped me to get a better understanding of this topic with a lot of interesting insight.
Recommended.
Many thanks to Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing

This is a fantastic resource for learning Tarot. The bulk of the book is detailed descriptions of each card in the deck (including interpretations for reversed cards), accompanied by images of Noel's beautiful Starchild Tarot cards; but this also contains other tidbits like a brief history of Tarot, general categorization of the suits, and example spreads you can do. Easy to read and inspiring!

Although I don't own a tarot deck it greatly interests me. I like this book because it gave a nice description of each card and their meanings. A sort of intro to Tarot.

I am enjoying learning from this book so far. Slow going as it is in pdf viewer mode which isn't supported by Kindle. Lots of interesting insight and information that is helping me see my cards in a different perspective. Thank you for allowing me to preview it.....

I have been researching Tarot for about a year now and this book is what I have been looking for. It is written very straight to the point and gives you great information without having to read between the lines. The descriptions of each cards is well written with enough information to give even a new reader like myself the confidence to try to explain readings to others. This will be a nice addition to my others and one I will reference frequently.

Well written intro to Tarot. I thought the descriptions of the cards were thorough and interesting and the different ways to read the cards was also a great section. The only part I didn't enjoy were the images on the "cards" it felt a little too new age-y and polarizing.

Not only is this a beautiful book, this is a wonderful resource.
Included are different spreads and suggestions on interpretations.
Each card is explained and allows even beginners to feel that they can read them.

I appreciated being able to view, read and review this book via Netgalley
I also spent time on the author's website, learning more.

Nice read! It's a great guide for beginners. And also, the design is extremely beautiful.

The Book of Tarot was a well-written guide to the tarot. It provided information on working with the tarot that is helpful whether you are a beginner or have some experience reading the tarot. I was looking for something that could offer me some fresh insight to use in my readings. I was pleasantly surprised as it was easy to read and the bits of history was interesting. The full description of the tarot cards in both reverse and upright was quite informative

This was a good introduction to reading Tarot cards. The writing was clear and easy to understand.

This is a great book for beginners. The information is wonderful and easy to follow. The illustrations are well done and modern. This book has the right mix of spirituality and instruction.

The book is great, it is very beautiful and does what it is supposed to do. Also it would be a great gift

I have read many books on Tarot and read cards myself. This book was so much more than just reading, it is full of other ways instead of just pick a card. It is.more in-depth but easy to understand. It's not so complicated that beginners would be lost. I will be adding some of these tips to my readings. I was honored to be given a copy from Net Galley for an honest review.

The stunning imagery of this book first captivates the readers attention. I would consider myself to be a novice tarot reader but through the guidance of Danielle Noel, I feel more confident in my abilities. Each card description is not only accurate but simply enough for me to remember. With each card, she details everything from Zodiac connections, intentions, to even guiding questions and the reversed meanings. Plus, she adds an additional card, "Akashic Records" and it completes entirely the deck and makes one wonder why others don't include it. She finishes this guidebook with explaining several spreads. I performed a couple of readings and I feel like these spreads in addition to the meanings she provided of the tarot were accurate even though I used another deck. After seeing her Starchild tarot imagery, I will definitely invest in her deck based upon the connection I had. Whether novice, intermediate, or expert. I would recommend to look through this tarot guidebook as a "JIC", "just-in-case". You never know what you will find or what you will take away to use in the future.

I have been dabbling in tarot cards for years. I find it fascinating when something actually does happen after a reading. My daughters also have their own cards and use them. I like to continue to learn and each book I have read on the subject of tarot cards does bring more in site as well. There are several different types of tarot decks as well as card placements. Each card is different in the deck and can mean several different things depending on how you interperate the card. It also has different meaning in different spreads and if the card is right side up or inverted.

This book mainly focuses on the meanings of the cards. It goes through the deck and tells you the basic meaning of the card, it also has the inverted card meanings. There are some spreads as well in the book and it tells you how and when to use the spreads.

Awesome book for anyone interested in Tarot.

I received this book from the Author or Publisher via Netgalley.com to read and review.
