Instant Tarot: Your Complete Guide to Reading the Cards Paperback – Illustrated, May 1, 2017

When I first started learning the tarot, I searched for a book that explained the Celtic Cross spread in a way that could be easily understood. I never found that book....until now. Instant Tarot explains how to do one and three card readings. It also gives a "quick key" reference to the card meanings of all 78 cards. But, what sets this book apart is that it clearly deals with the Celtic Cross spread in a way that even a beginning reader can understand without difficulty. Each card has it's own "section" describing it's meaning in each of the 10 positions of the Celtic Cross spread. Brilliant!!! And, the descriptions are a couple of sentences which makes it much less intimidating and easier to remember. The card pictures in the book are based on the Rider Waite deck, but the descriptions work with any tarot deck. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an easy but accurate way of learning the tarot. You will not be disappointed.

Beautiful deck, the art work by Amy Z. is gorgeous. The book is very easy to use. I particularly like the suggestions given for actions to take make this a step beyond the usual "figure it out yourself" deck. If I were a parent with teens wanting to explore something spiritually different, this is the one to try. In fact, it really is written as a guide to better life choices.

This book is amazing. I literally just needed to read the first few pages with the one word description of each card and it opened up an entire new way for me to read Tarot. It helped me get comfortable with having the general idea of the meaning of each card, but still leave room for intuitive interpretation. So, I love it!

I have attempted to read my own tarot cards for years. I have gotten so fustrated that I was unable to apply what "keyword" to what position. I have given up so many times than I care to count. I wish I had found this book 25 years ago.

Easy to read, easy to understand, an extremely useful book for anyone looking to get into tarot.

Fantastic book. Clear meanings for the cards in every position of a celtic cross spread. I think I'll finally have some success at reading the cards now! Wonderful for beginning readers as well as experienced.

This book is terrible. Don't buy it. It provides definitions for each card in each of the positions on the celtic cross but the language is hard to understand and can't be used during an actual reading.Some of the position card definitions repeat and you don't get a clear understanding of what each position means.

Very informative. Easy to use. Offers a quick key to card meanings. It will get anyone started. Takes the mystery out of this esoteric tool, making it available to us all.

Incredible. I wasn’t sure if I would connect with my new cards but this book has really helped me grasp the basics and helped with interpreting my readings.Fabulous book. 5 stars

Very user friendly. Really glad I bought this book. Enjoy!

Not a great book. Seems written to make a quick buck.Wanted to leave 1/2 star...
