Tarot Cards - Rider Waite - best manual to learn?

I have the tarot cards and the book that comes with them, but it is really hard to decipher. Anyone know of a manual that actually shows photos of each card and interprets each? It is soooooo confusing when I look in this 100 page booklet with no identifying photos, and try and figure out which card is being referred to and how to actually do this!

Tarot Cards - Rider Waite - best manual to learn?
Without a doubt, it's Waite's own pictorial guide to the tarot.

The problem with using other books for the Rider-Waite is that they DON'T have Waite's symbolism down.

I couldn't help but notice your question. I run a home study Tarot/Psychic Development Course based on the Rider Waite. I also have just opened a yahoo group - holistic paths to wisdom where we practice tarot etc, that anyone can join.





With regard to book with pictures, it always pays to have the cards at hand so that you can study them closer - although a good stocked book shop, rather than the net, will able you to browse so that you can find one that suits.

I bought a book entitled "The Beginners Guide to Tarot" and it was really straight forward...I just can't think of the author...sorry.

This is one of the best online courses I have found, and it uses the Rider Waite deck.


Blessed Be!

There are plenty of sites with pics that can give you a basic familiarity with the cards before you develop your own personal meanings for each one.
Reply:Deut. 18:10-14, “There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, 11 or one who casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. 12 “For whoever does these things is detestable to the Lord; and because of these detestable things the Lord your God will drive them out before you. 13 “You shall be blameless before the Lord your God. 14 “For those nations, which you shall dispossess, listen to those who practice witchcraft and to diviners, but as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do so.





2 Kings 21:6, "And he made his son pass through the fire, practiced witchcraft and used divination, and dealt with mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the sight of the Lord provoking Him to anger." (see also 2 Chron. 33:6)
