Trade ReviewI know Barbara Venn-Lever to be an absolute font of wisdom, and a lucid communicator. In this book she explains the background and operation of the tarot - a technique that she has taught for many years - where 'chance' procedures curiously reflect and comment upon significant truths concerning our experiences in this seemingly physical world. That ancient notion is being rediscovered today in Science, in ideas such as parallel universes and the concept of us existing in a mind-universe. Barbara rightly asserts that in tarot the subtle analysis of language is insightful - it is the case in the interpretation of nocturnal dreams as well as the broader Greater Dream of Life.
