Summary: Too bad it's out of print
Comment: What can I say? It's a well-written, beautifully illustrated, informative book on the tarot. For most of the cards, the author gives a two to three word synopsis of the card's meaning, followed by a more in depth discussion of the card. I think this format helps the reader to remember the meaning of the cards. The author really goes into great detail to tell the reader about the mythological and astrological backgrounds behind the meanings of the cards. I bought my book second-hand at a bookstore, and I'm glad I found it. You will probably have a hard time finding a copy, because I would think that most people who bought it would want to keep it in their library. Sorry....I don't plan to part with mine anytime soon, so you'll just have to find your own.

Summary: Simple and Informative
Comment: Tarot, by Jane Lyle, is an extremely descriptive and enlightening book written in an easy to read format. This book has wonderful preparatory information for the beginning tarot reader, and is an essential reference source for the master. Filled with in-depth background information, the author shows the reader how each of the cards is linked with astrology, numerology, mythology, and alchemy, as well as psychology. This knowledge in turn helps to make it easier for the reader to interpret the cards within a spread. Beautiful illustrations abound throughout this remarkable work, which help the reader to understand the all the knowledge given by the author as they read. There is also a step-by-step guide to help the beginner to get started with reading different tarot spreads (this includes samples of each of the spreads contained therein). I have found this book to be a most helpful resource when interpreting tarot readings. It is truly a shame that it is out of print.
