Review: An incredible education on how (not what) to think about whilst building a relationship to Tarot. - Jodorowsky's "The Way of Tarot: The Spiritual Teacher in the Cards" has been my primary guide in learning to read the Tarot. Inspired by forces I can't remember (perhaps a simple love for his work) I bought this book years ago, but only opened it last year. Immediately I was drawn into a place in my own spirit where Tarot resides. With the help of Jodorowsky's insight and guidance here, I found myself communing with the cards and hearing their voice within weeks. The real delight and surprise of this guide is that Jodorowsky does not explain how the cards work, or give any definitive "objective" facts about what any given card or spread should mean. Rather, he provides excellent means by which you can create your own relationship with the cards. He does this by laying bare his own experience with the cards, and encouraging the reader/tarologist to develop their approach primarily through looking, relating and observing the cards themselves. Nevertheless, Jodorowsky does not hold back with insight - making it clear all the way that these are simply HIS observations - and also practical suggestions for how to understand and interpret every aspect of the deck. He spends a lot of time telling stories about the deck, and dives into each of the Major and Minor Arcana cards. This makes the guide both thorough and inspiring; leading by example, he challenges the reader/Tarologist to be as sensitive, caring and diligent in building their relationship to the cards. Practically, the book starts with an overview of the deck as a whole, and then deep-dives into each of the Major Arcana, followed by overviews and then inspections of each of the suits of the Minor Arcana. The book finishes with guidance on where to 'situate' one's self within the dynamic of deck, Tarologist, and recipient of the reading, along with many various suggested reading layouts. For the open-spirited, you may find yourself receptive (and therefore able) to accept that there is a spirit embodied in the deck itself, acting as a kind of 'fourth force' involved in a reading. Personally, I can only encourage everyone to take the possibility on board, as I have been delighted to find myself in the place of conduit, guide or healer, rather than oracle or diviner. For those looking for a spiritual transformation or the opportunity to heal with the Tarot, this book makes it clear precisely how the spirit in the cards have the power to sublimate the reader's ego. As a result of my relationship with this book, I've learned that the right circumstances (including bringing good energy to the table, grounding, and understanding your place as a reader) can lead to truly surprising, accurate and transformational readings for anyone who brings an open heart to the deck. Ultimately, this book has helped me train my mind and spirit to both embrace and amplify the powers inherit in the Tarot. It has also inspired some radical shifts in my other creative practices (painting, sculpture, writing) in ways I can't entirely explain. Keep an open heart and enjoy!
Review: Love It - Although only just bought, this looks a serious read. Should keep me busy this winter. On flick through, doesn't look too heavy a read and looking forward to learning from this, as tarot is a learning curve ongoing

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Precious and Valuable work!
*by N***D on 9 October 2020*

This book is precious. I feel blessed to witness and absorb to the best of my abilities the depth, maturity, multidimensionality of authors thoughts on so many aspects of the human Soul/Soul Journey within philosophical, historical and psychological context. His personal stories and experiences deeply touched me... Jodorowsky is a Master that I feel lucky to learn from. I read almost all of the book twice and I already know that I will be reading it from the start again. The chapter “Opening. How to Become a Mirror” found such deep resonance in my heart and blew me away with his understanding of the human soul; the ethics he established for himself as Tarologist is something I would like to aspire to. There were passages that I found a little bit crazy but it only enhances the book in my opinion, helping me to identify my own areas that need some growth and expansion in my own way. I also have the Tarot Cards and deeply grateful for the restoration A.J done, stunning deck. I would recommend to wrap the book in some sort of cover (I got sticky backed plastic film), because you will refer to it time and time again and if you are like me, you would like to keep it in mint condition. Have fun with it. This book will liven up your psyche!
