Hi Tarot-lovers,

I once had my first set of tarot-card (Marseille) which I completed with symbols of western astrology.

(music to my ears) where did you get this information, so that I can read some more about it ?

Dolfke

Your most welcome, but now don't laugh
Believe it or not. My first tarot book I bought to learn with was called. Tarot for Dummies by Amber Jayanti  I go back to this book often to make sure I am correct on my astrology and numerology connections. there is a great section on the Qabalistic Tree of Life as well.

Helped me GREATLY when I got my first deck.
The Tarot of the Witches deck set. Came with a book that gave fair details on how to read and what the cards may mean, but only gave keywords for the minors and I had no idea what I was getting into at the time and came acrossed this book one day in the library and then got my own copy.

Peace and Love, Botyfltiger
