Tarot of the Divine Handbook

Hello all, The Tarot of the Divine Handbook Journal by Yoshi Yoshitani 2022, First Edition, is a finely illustrated hardcover handbook journal published by Clarkson Potter, a division of Random House Books. The accompanying Tarot deck of the Tarot of the Divine of fairy tales from around the world is sold separately. The Tarot deck cards are beautifully displayed on the Major Arcana, being a delight to marvel at in their fairy tale symbology with bright colors and excellent paper stock of the cards. If you're buying this Handbook to get extra in-depth interpretations of the cards, don't bother. The guidebook that comes with the Tarot deck of cards will suffice. This Hardcover Journal Handbook is for the extra bells and whistles that the author Yoshi Yoshitani has placed therein. The beginning chapter has general Tarot reference material on a universal basis that many other tarot how-to books may cover with more in-depth material. The final concluding chapter of this handbook has excellent suggestions for additional tarot card spreads, including a template sheet to copy off the handbook to utilize with your future card spreads. All the 78 Tarot card interpretations are always found on the left-hand page of the handbook. The Journal aspect offers one blank page on the right-hand side. The handbook has no page numbers whatsoever. If I had to guess, the Handbook Journal is 200+ plus pages overall. The left-hand page has a fully illustrated tarot card, much like in the tarot guidebook. However, here, there are 5 bullet points vertically next to the right side of each card image with an additional minor paragraph with poignant questions to inquire about your card. Also, on the card Image, there is a circle chat bubble with the origin of the fairy tale from around the globe. The 5 bullet points are concise and very to the point, as a matter of fact, making you think profoundly about the meaning of your card spreads. However, the tarot deck guidebook has additional information that is more elaborate than this handbook, in my opinion. The hardcover journal handbook has dropped from its original suggested retail price back in 2022 when it was first published. So, if you have the interest, this is an excellent accompaniment to the tarot deck as originally intended by the author.

Very nice guide book, informative for beginning tarot readers. A very simple guide that walks the reader through the meanings of the major and minor arcana cards and simple breakdown of the Suits, number and court cards to help begin the journey of applying clarity and understanding to a reading. The size of the book is perfect, making it easier to read. The book provides sample spreads and journaling ideas. The symbolism in the cards are well explained and the deck looks like it’s going to be beautiful and I am eagerly awaiting the deck to be delivered, I can’t wait!

Adore the entire set by this author/artist! I've the tarot set with book as well! The artwork in this book is printed as a full page print with the tales on the opposite page. The stories are cute but extremely short! Some of the fairy tales I know well but a lot is ommited to keep the artwork & stories in format. All in all its a sweet read! I read 1 or 2 tales at a time when I don't have the time to sink my head into a 600pg novel! I luv reading the stories from other cultures! We had a huge book of Aesop's Fables when I was a small child and I read it often. Its great to learn a bit about the stories that have shaped young minds in places all over the world. Each tale & artwork pertains to a specific tarot card. Nice!!!!

I'm just starting out in tarot, and this book offers understandable explanations for how to begin and grow your tarot journey. It has journal space for each card, so you can look back on your intuitive growth as you study and learn, and the art work is breathtaking. I would highly recommend this book to anyone, amateur or professional, for the myriad of features and ease of understanding.

I highly recommend getting this book with the Tarot of the Divine cards. This is my favorite tarot cards hands down. They are beautifully illustrated, and the book goes deeper into the meaning of the interpretation of the card is.

3.5 stars for this guidebook to Tarot of the Devine deck. If you bought the deck it comes with a small guidebook that is pretty decadent but doesn’t offer a large amount of information. I bought this separate book hoping to get more in-depth information. It does give some more detail but not much at all. Honestly, I was disappointed in it and would not have bought it had I known that it was lacking.

I bought this as a companion to the deck, which, admittedly, I haven't used much, but that's only because I have a few favorite decks that I tend to gravitate towards. It gives some good extra material on the cards, going into some specific symbolism in each one. If you like the deck and want to have a little more insight into it, I definitely recommend this.

I love the art so much! The cards are beautiful and the stories for each are wonderful. I love myths and tales and this is wonderful.

El libro es bonito y trae información interesante. Una pena que en Amazon no cuiden los envíos de los libros, ha llegado con los cantos rotos

Bel diario su cui approfondire il significato dei singoli arcani. Buona qualità e bella grafica. Un buon aiuto per avvicinarsi allo studio dei tarocchi

I bought this (and related products) for my daughter for Christmas. The quality is exceptional. She loves them. Highly recommend.
