Things have come a long way over the decades. There are some good books you mentioned today, going on the ever growing list. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. From the 80's and 90's to today there are some classic books to give us solid ideas and also a giggle or two along the way. Have a delightful weekend and best of wishes for Tarothon 🙏💜🙏

Oh Simon such a great source video for a beginner like me. I really enjoyed it. My net was down or I would have been there. Take care and thanks again. 🤗

[@the_hermits_cave]

Thank you and welcome. Max Headroom - that’s a name I’ve not heard of in a while 😝

Missed most of this live but catching up now. I've got far too many tarot books and the Encyclopedias, one signed by Stuart Kaplan. I do read them from time to time but looking forwards to letting some go when I move. I am a book person so some of the oldest ones are close to my heart. Yes I have accidentally bought doubles, often tho car boot

[@rifflinthemind.5793]

My top picks would be Melissa Cynova's 5 readings to reset your life, it's a lovely one for someone learning to read in a time of crisis, so comforting and has card meanings in the back. Ethonys court card book 'Your Tarot Court' is fab, I love her watching TV court card bingo. Really helped me get to know the courts in my deck. I did Susan T Changs Living Tarot course and her Tarot Correspondences book is amazing if you want to learn magical practice with cards. I recently bought Walt Amberstones secret language of the tarot and the RWS symbolism unpacked in that is great, mountains, water, pillars, things I may not have noticed much before.

Great choices!

hey dear Simon, love your videos

[@the_hermits_cave]

Right back at you. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@Dracorvid]

Ooo! I need to get the Holistic Tarot book 🤩

[@rifflinthemind.5793]

The author has a free supplemental course on her website with the worksheets.

[@robertgallagher2226]

Holistic Tarot is a brilliant book.

Hi Simon,nice Weekend. And good night.

[@stevenbrightuk]

Thanks for your kind words about my book! 😊

[@the_hermits_cave]

Hey there Mister! You’re welcome 🙏🏼

[@lisaamber1566]

Have you read the Your Tarot Courts book? What's your opinion? Many thanks x

[@davidmeacham9527]

The ‘Holistic Tarot’ book in every UK retailer I’ve looked at says 624 pages?! Are there two versions?

[@the_hermits_cave]

Not that I’m aware of 🤔

[@davidmeacham9527]

@@the_hermits_cave it's weird. I obviously just ordered it anyway. 😆

[@purple_scorp146]

Hey Simon, I loved the video. Gave me a little insight into what each book offers. What is the name of the deck you pulled a card from in the end of the video? Thanks, Linda

[@Dracorvid]

Aloha! Since I’m assuming that Simon is sleeping I’ll jump in and answer... the deck he uses at the end is the Roots&Wings Oracle. I just adore that deck 🥰

[@the_hermits_cave]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@rifflinthemind.5793]

Is Tarot on Earth applicable to RWS decks or more for Marseille readers?

[@the_hermits_cave]

Marseilles

[@lisaamber1566]

Many thanks for making this video. Would you be able to recommend which book would be good for my 15 year old daughter who is now getting an interest for tarot. She is a complete beginner and she has now asked if she could have a tarot deck for Christmas and I would like to add a book as one of her pressies. Many thanks xxx

[@the_hermits_cave]

Oh there are so many, but I just started with a basic tarot Bible.

[@lisaamber1566]

@@the_hermits_cave Many thanks. This is in my top three of thinking of buying x

[@caveman3021]

I know this is and older post, but try Eden Greys The Tarot Revealed and Mastering the Tarot. After that Spiritual Tarot compares the RWS, Morgan Greer, and Aquarian decks and its by Signe E. Echols ,Robert Mueller,and Sandra A Thompson. Comparing these 3 decks was invaluable for me in learning the symbols and the RWS system. This got me to the point where I didn't really need the books anymore : )

[@lisaamber1566]

@@caveman3021 Many thanks for your reply. I've only just seen it x. In the end I bought my daughter the Crystal Bible last Yule. This year I'm looking for a good Spreads book for her. I'm tempted with 365 Spreads as shown in Simon's video x

Simon...who was the author to the Illustrated Guide to the Tarot?

[@the_hermits_cave]

It’s by Jonathan Dee 🙏🏼♥️

Books, books & more books on my fav subject with one of my fav KZbinrs! What's not to love! 😁💖 However I wish to point out a MAJOR glitch/error/mistake in Mary K Greer's 21 ways to read the Tarot (atleast in the copy I have) so basically in the Archetypal Motifs Chart (it starts from page 265) THE SUN card is MISSING in the table & it is so so sad to see this in an otherwise good book!

[@sluggo562]

Holistic Tarot at times felt a bit more like a reconciliation effort between Western and Eastern astrology than a guide to tarot. Which is fine, but dressing that interpretation up as the definitive guide to tarot is a tad disingenuous.
