I thought it would be useful to have a thread for reference of our fave books we use generally. For Tarot or any related books. This can be a list which helps other members of the forum in future. We have a thread already of the best tarot books by google ranked recommendations here and we have a sister thread of best books for beginners here What books would you personally recommend that have been important in your studies and journey? What books really helped you? What are your essential books that you keep as a reference? What books really changed your mind on something divination related or gave you a light bulb moment? …

I thought it would be useful to have a thread for reference of our fave books we used as beginners. For Tarot or any related books. This can be a list which helps other members of the forum in future.

What are your favorite Tarot apps, or at least the ones that you always use? What did you like about it, and how was it?

I thought it was interesting that in the newly released seasons of Orange is the new Black and GLOW, that the main characters in each show have an episode where they get a tarot reading.

What Tarot / Divination book are you currently reading through or studying? This is a sister thread to the what non-tarot book are you currently reading? thread here (this is a subscribers area of the forum) I thought it would be good to have an ongoing thread for people to update their current tarot related reading. Books / Ebooks / Audio books have to be on tarot / divination themes 🙂

What are some of your favourite youtube channels on tarot?

So I received this book as a Christmas gift and I had to share it with you all as it's stunning. It explores some of the wonderful artwork produced for Tarot decks over the years, and also where art and the practice of Tarot meet. https://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/art/all/08003/facts.tarot_the_library_of_esoterica.htm# At the risk of going off topic, the book was produced as part of a trilogy with the other two books exploring Astrology and Witchcraft, for those who are interested. Enjoy 😊

Does anybody else have these books by Donald Michael Kraig? I know almost nothing about magick - raw newbie here. I thought it might prove very beneficial if I explore how it can be applied to the Tarot. I have only scanned the books but I've never really read them. To those who already work with magick, were these books helpful, and would you recommend them? Or do you have other books which you think are simply better, or more appropriate for beginners?

I've struggled with pulling the 3 of swords card in a reading for myself and have witnessed others squirm when I pulled the card for them. I took a dive into the imagery to try and pull some positivity out of the card... https://youtu.be/UKltof2X-rI

Sylvain has just started a wonderful new tarot project: (I don't have a YT channel, I just watch along and scribble in my little notebook). He works through the first 14 books in the Wizard of Oz series, because together they have 365 (very short) chapters; every day, for every chapter, he posts a short video with instructions / prompt. The books are in the public domain, so they are easy to find free, also as audiobooks on Librivox etc - although I may have already ordered the big box set that he is working with as well... 😄 I read a chapter in the evening, then watch the video (they're only around 5 minutes or so…

Here’s the URL for it: It’s supposed to be on April 30 (IDK what timezone, so best to check on the link above). The Stream is an interactive show (it’s not staged, and I know because they did feature my tweet on an old episode about decriminalisation/legalisation of sex work in like 2013). I heard a lot of interactive radio shows in the US are staged, this one is real tho. You can tweet them here: I’m not sure how it’ll go, but AFAIK these people should be safe/open-minded to deal with. IIRC, they also did a documentart on contributions of Islam to science—unless I’m confusing that with something the BBC did (so they’re good about reconciling spiritual …

I saw something slightly amusing recently - I rewatched 1995's "Hideaway" for the first time in many years. It's a goofy yet entertaining thriller, based on Dean Koontz's book (although Koontz hated it and disowned it, since it turned his grim horror novel into something of an action film). At any rate, there is a scene in which the protagonist visits a medium to try explaining odd visions that he has been experiencing. She senses the presence of a powerful entity about him, and then realizes that there is another presence, sinister and malevolent, following him and quickly closing in. She uses a Tarot deck in the scene, and since "Hideaway" is a US film, there was a…

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone listens to the Antifragile Tarot Podcast? I only discovered it the other day, but it's been around since 2017 or so and I must've listened to at least a dozen episodes already. The website is here: https://antifragiletarot.libsyn.com/ but it's also available on Spotify (not sure about other streaming services). The thing I really love about it is it has a queer, secular jewish witch for a host, which means the approach taken is intersectional, progressive, inclusive, and sensible. She does talk about her magickal practice a bit, but there's plenty of focus on tarot too, and some very frank advice on contentious issu…

I'm relatively new to tarot, and was wondering if there is anything people would recommend to someone who is just starting out?

Hi guys! I saw this article in the Washington Post and thought you may be interested: https://www.washingtonpost.com/religion/2021/12/10/tarot-cards-pandemic-trend/?fb_news_token=lC72N7bEDuA%2FngewV nPcA%3D%3D.w1T49UfX6iZuN5E8lxlbI01nQyoMxw53RgkI 6DQwwEkMcYbTNffNa0mIw2kJ3jVlyQs2U56GandS5e5 R9KO7VS26WzdP45zCr1Fy1u0ug79KVZS30pQYUhhX9eoIofKBFKmpg%2FyM6Rr3HO1qWOTKjYhhmKI SFKp2m5YSWicsnKJdeFnMG12XidBckQJTxX%2FYM5tULb73SgxtzhI6c4p6TeHhwHHpebOjt941eoWIsikTGxK6xeEPrICrvyC4%2FTaRmfKnNSvUMsWbKgoZeCu2jL5LDTi9YXrIGt7snPzRH1mu6qvaDKG5ivXTjQBVsujMhgQ01fabMS4UJZ3%2F5vw%3D%3D&fbclid=IwAR0IV5f_GJCjnWzzpj0yRcf9E08_ASdbQdZjmEoWegdt6nCWMqInTg23VXk Holy Smokes, is…

Has anyone read Bill Heidrick's works on the Tarot? He posted them online for free, and I found them quite informative upon browsing some passages. I haven't read all of them tho, so I can't fully vouch for them.

I was wondering if some of you have bought the book: 36 Secrets: A Decanic Journey through the Minor Arcana of the Tarot by T. Susan Chang Information from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/36-Secrets-T-Susan-Chang/dp/1716325099 The minor arcana of the tarot have an astrological secret: 36 of them, in fact. In the early 20th century, members of the British secret society of the Golden Dawn created what would become the world's best-known tarot deck: the Rider Waite Smith tarot. They also created an infrastructure of esoteric correspondences around the deck, assigning each minor card numbered 2 through 10 in each of the four suits, to a decan—a 10°…

I had an unexpected opportunity to buy some divination books and this was one of them. The work is focused on The Egyptian Tarot and derived from The Sacred Tarot by C.C. Zain. I’d love to hear from those of you that have studied either of these books and if you’ve used the card deck. Is it best to use the black and white version (available on PrintStudio) or the new version of the deck that is colored?

Hi friends, I would greatly appreciate recommendations on books that are focused on finding a job/career that would fit my personality. Something based on Astrology or Tarot. Thank you for your tips!

Hello everyone, I am just curious what books you read to improve your Tarot Reading Skill? I, myself learn a lot from Seventy Degree of Wisdom from the life philosophy and psychology aspects. However, I am looking for more information about interpretation in daily life / practical basis. Sometimes the meaning of the cards does not make sense to the heart of the matter of daily life. Thanks.

In another thread a member suggested to me that I use an app to read Tarot while I live at my parents since they don't allow the cards in their house. I started looking up various apps and kept seeing "AI Tarot reader" And suddenly I wasn't sure if this was a good idea anymore lol. Now I will admit, I am a lot more weary of AI or.. distrusting of it than most people are, and I could absolutely be paranoid. But whether or not AI is good, bad, neutral, it still kind of makes me question like... what makes the right cards come out of a deck? And are we sure a computer app can accurately do the same thing? A lot of people won't let others touch their Tarot decks so tha…
