Her influence in the field cannot be overstated. So, I’m delighted she here is focusing on some of the most misunderstood cards in the deck, the court cards.  By seeing sides of ourselves and the energy of others around us reflected in the ‘people’ cards, we gain a deeper level of understanding to our readings. Her techniques for exploring the multidimensional layers of the cards while utilizing them to plumb the depths of one’s own psyche are clear to grasp and accessible to all. I will forever be indebted to Mary K. Greer for sharing her wealth of tarot knowledge. Her books prepared me for a satisfying lifetime relationship with tarot. I consider her a mentor I’ve never met but for whom I am certainly grateful.”  -- Rachel True, creator of True Heart Intuitive Tarot\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I’d like to say that this is Mary K.

This is a magical journey, illuminated by what I call the tarot constellations. The universe that we gaze at in the night sky above us was first mapped into meaningful groups by the ancient Chaldeans, “the sky gazers,” six centuries before Christ. In the West, we identified these groups as constellations; named them for mythical beings, animals, and objects; and told stories about them that served as guides to the meaning and purpose of life. Similarly, the tarot deck is another map of consciousness evolved by our predecessors and transmitted to us, in which we now chart the journey of our Self. A semi-mythical philosopher by the name of Hermes Trismegistus described the relationship between the inner and outer universe like this:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"a-spacing-base\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThat which is above is like that which is below and that which is below is like that which is above, to achieve the wonders of the one thing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"a-spacing-base\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eCalled the Hermetic axiom, this phrase is central to all alchemical and metaphysical philosophy and the key to an understanding of the use of symbols such as the tarot.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"a-spacing-base\"\u003eConsider, however, that the astronomical and astrological constellations are not actually connected star systems; they are imagined collections of points of light, some originating relatively near us and some far more distant, that appear related only from our personal viewing platform, which we call Earth. Because of our own inner need for personal meaning, humans throughout history have projected our own consciousness upon the night sky in the form of complex patterns and pictures. Nevertheless, the meaning we find in them is completely valid: When we gaze at the stars, we see ourselves clearly. As author Joseph Chilton Pearce has aptly said, “Man’s mind mirrors a universe that mirrors man’s mind.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e288 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandable-section col-lg-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text--medium\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMary K.
