Tarot For Change
Unlock the transformative power of tarot with this unique investigation into the psychology of its secrets, symbols and stories.
Symbols have been used in modern psychology for generations, from the interpretation of fairy tales to inkblot tests. Though tarot is often thought of as a tool for divination and fortune-telling, it too contains a set of symbols that hold the potential to unlock secrets of the human experience, from the esoteric to everyday life. With beautiful illustrations based on the traditional Rider-Waite deck, this book will inspire you, awaken your curiosity and show you how to cultivate a deep connection with the cards.
In Tarot for Change, Jessica Dore divulges profound insights about how to work with tarot to better understand ourselves and live in alignment with our life values. You'll discover:
· The importance of choosing the right deck and how to find it
· How the mythic imagery of tarot supports evidence-based therapeutic concepts such as mindfulness and acceptance
· The skill of interpreting specific images and symbols
· How to build a meaningful relationship with the cards
Jessica's reflections on each of the 78 cards weave together ideas from the fields of psychology, behavioural science, spirituality and old stories, breathing new language into ancient wisdoms about what it means to be human.
