Tune in to the messages from the universe with this valuable divination gift.Trade Review"I have fallen in love with The Sacred She Tarot. Ma Deva Padma, the creator of this stunningly beautiful deck, is a world class visionary artist who is equally gifted in her insight into divinatory wisdom. Each card is visually beautiful and rich with symbolic significance, and the meaning of each card is instantly accessible, both because of the immediate felt sense it engenders and because there is a word indicating what it signifies. Words such as “Joy,” “Choices,” “Intuition,” “Grief,” “Solitude,” and so forth bring forth responses in the viewer that do not require one to go into lengthy study, as traditional Tarot decks do. And Padma’s reimagination of which word to select has created a divinatory oracle that is highly relevant to our times. Those who still cherish the traditional Tarot decks will find much that links to the roots from which The Sacred She Tarot has sprung.” -- ––Robert Simmons, author of

Inner Traditions Bear and Company The Complete Lenormand Oracle Handbook: Reading
Book SynopsisMore than 200 years old, the 36 Lenormand cards are an oracle combining standard playing cards with images from the everyday world, such as key, book, animals, and flowers. Their simple, predictive, and non-esoteric nature opens the realm of fortune-telling to all, offering a traditional cartomantic divination where card combinations fuse together to give clear answers. In this complete guide to Lenormand card reading, Caitlín Matthews explains the multiple meanings for each card, providing keywords so the reader can quickly build an interpretive vocabulary for Lenormand fortune-telling. She details how to lay spreads, starting with 3 or 5 cards and building to the Grand Tableau spread, which uses all 36 cards. She explores the significance of the playing card pips and suits on each card and how cards combine to create a variety of meanings. Matthews enables readers to learn the Lenormand card keywords so they can both read for themselves and express their interpretations to clients. Providing real case histories for readers to interpret, she also includes self-tests and practice exercises with answers to check at the end of the book. In addition to her comprehensive practical introduction to the Lenormand oracle, Matthews delves deeply into the history of cartomancy to reveal the mythic blueprint that underlies this simple deck, the key to which lies not in their imagery but in their connection to playing cards.Trade Review“Anyone interested in Lenormand--beginner or seasoned reader--will find this book essential reading. It is wise, wonderfully structured, and written in a voice that makes one feel as though the author is sitting at your side, offering inspired advice and support. Here is a guidebook to not only the Lenormand world but also the symbolic, storied, readable world around us.” * Ari Berk, Ph.D., professor of folklore and mythology at Central Michigan University *“An outstanding, definitive handbook for both beginners and experienced readers that gives a ‘big picture’ view of the Lenormand deck! Caitlín starts where most others leave off, exploring the original cartomantic tradition and combining it with modern techniques connected to those roots. As someone who appreciates the classic wisdom of the Grand Tableau, I’m so happy to see it taught this well, step by step, so anyone can use it.” * Mary K. Greer, author of 21 Ways to Read a Tarot Card *“This book is a sublime source that will provide handy inspiration for anyone interested in the Petit Lenormand cards. The content will satisfy the novice, the journeyman, and the expert alike. Essential for your shelf!” * Björn Meuris, creator of the courses Lenormand for Beginners *“The Complete Lenormand Oracle Handbook by Caitlín Matthews is a wonderfully comprehensive and practical Lenormand guide. Matthews does a thorough job of presenting the history of the oracle to give the reader a solid sense of the deck’s development over the centuries. Matthews has created an inspirational manual for Lenormand that can be a companion to readers at all stages of their cartomantic career.” * Anastasia Haysler, cofounder of Tarot Media Company *“Caitlín Matthews brings a unique perspective to this wonderful book on Lenormand cartomancy. She is both a scholar and a shaman/magician, and at the highest level of both. Whether describing the symbols and techniques or the deeper levels of cartomancy, she is warm, witty, and always clear. This book is above all useful, especially in its exploration of the playing card symbols in the corners of the cards and the ways the Lenormand deck can open to deeper, even archetypal meanings without abandoning the tradition. This is a book I will come back to again and again.” * Rachel Pollack, co-creator of The Burning Serpent Oracle *“Wide in its scope and detailed in its depth, this is the go-to book for the Lenormand novice and expert alike. Crammed with knowledge and insight, examples and exercises, Matthews has created that rare beast: a clear and well-structured manual to navigate the paradox of simplicity and complexity that is the Lenormand Oracle.” * Alison Cross, joint chair of the Tarot Association of the British Isles (TABI) *“Caitlín’s historical insight, exceptional practical instruction, and groundbreaking revelations of the ‘Lenormand Universe’ will ensure this book becomes a guiding light in the global Lenormand community for readers, students, and teachers in the twenty-first century.” * Linda Henery, president Tarot Guild of Australia *Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Introduction The Return of the Traditional Oracle Part OneLearning the Craft of Lenormand1 Learning the Language of Lenormand 2 Lenormand Lexicon 3 Creating Sentences with Pairs and Triplets 4 Storyboard 5 Taking the Portrait Part TwoThe Playing Card Insets6 Waking the Pips 7 The Art of Cartomancy 8 Secrets of the Lenormand Universe Part ThreeThe Art of the Grand Tableau9 The Piquet Tableau 10 The Grand Tableau of Nines 11 Near and Far Method Part FourLenormand in Practice12 Expanding Fluency 13 Becoming the Storyteller Appendix I Key to the Practices, Spreads, and Studies Appendix II Order of Practices, Spreads, and Studies Appendix III Quick Reference Notes Bibliography Resources Index About the Author

Inner Traditions Bear and Company The Hoodoo Tarot: 78-Card Deck and Book for
Book SynopsisBetween the 17th and 19th centuries, many Indigenous Americans and people of African descent intermarried and socialized more often than is acknowledged by mainstream history books and scholars. These interactions produced not only a multicultural people but also a body of knowledge that is known today as Hoodoo or Rootwork. Celebrating the complex American Rootwork tradition, The Hoodoo Tarot integrates esoteric and botanical knowledge from Hoodoo with the divination system of the Tarot. Structured like a traditional Tarot deck, each of the 78 cards features full-color paintings by magical-realist artist Katelan Foisy and elegantly interprets the classical Tarot imagery through depictions of legendary rootworkers past and present as well as important Hoodoo symbolism. In the accompanying guidebook, Tayannah Lee McQuillar provides a history of Hoodoo and its complex heritage, including its roots in multiple African and Indigenous American ethnic groups as well as its European influences. She explores the traditional forms of divination used by rootworkers, including cartomancy, explaining how pairing the Tarot with Hoodoo is a natural fit. For each card in the Major Arcana and the four suits of the Minor Arcana (sticks, baskets, needles, and knives), McQuillar provides an in-depth card meaning that draws on both Tarot and Hoodoo tradition. She shares the history of the rootworker or symbol featured, any associated magical plants, a related scriptural quote, and guidance and advice based on the card’s meaning. She also offers instructions on card spreads and shares sample card readings. Offering a divination system rooted in the Indigenous and African experience in North America, The Hoodoo Tarot provides a hands-on way to honor and explore the magic of Hoodoo for personal growth and spiritual inspiration.Trade Review"In keeping with the roots of Hoodoo, this powerfully-illustrated tarot deck is organized along the lines of an extended family. Elders comprise the Major Arcana, the family inhabits the court cards, and the rest of the Minor Arcana reflects the community and mundane life. Many readers will buy this deck for Foisy’s truth-is-strength illustrations. With use, I think they will discover layers of insight into their personal lineage, regardless of their ethnicity." * Anna Jedrziewski, TarotWise.com *“Tayannah Lee McQuillar and Katelan V. Foisy have given contemporary medicine people in the Americas and beyond a rare and special gift. The in-depth research, interviews, and life experience of both practitioners shine like a beacon through this divination tool, helping us ground our practices in historical precedent and tried-and-true wisdom. Nothing has been lost that cannot be found.” * Chiron Armand, founder of Impact Shamanism and a trained hoodoo root doctor *“. . . dispels common notions and myths about the meaning and origin of Hoodoo Tarot. I recommend that anyone--scholar or lay--who has interest in the practice of tarot and the complicated cosmos that it represents read this book. It is an insightful view of a people and practices that are mired in controversy and misunderstanding.” * Stephen C. Finley, Ph.D., associate professor in the Department of Philosophy & Religious Studies at *"I don’t know where to begin with this review. I have received, and purchased, many tarot and oracle decks throughout the years, but I don’t think I have ever learned as much as I did from The Hoodoo Tarot by Tayannah Lee McQuillar." * The Magical Buffet *"The Hoodoo Tarot was made with care and consideration and it shows. I recommend this deck if you have an interest in both Tarot and Hoodoo, are looking for a deck showing diverse people from various backgrounds, crave a perspective closer to your roots or spiritual path or just want to learn more about Hoodoo. Highly Recommended." * Larissa Carlson Viana, FacingNorth.net *"The first thing I did upon opening these cards was to start taking photos of them to send them to my friends. I was absolutely amazed by the incredible artwork of this tarot. Both beautiful and haunting, the deck transported me to another world, telling me stories and taking me to unknown places until the moment that they revealed themselves to be parts of my subconscious. I am sure I am going to be dreaming about them when I go to bed.
