About this title

Synopsis

Do you want to know what's going on in your life, or would you rather it remain a secret? Katie’s curiosity was the primary reason she wanted to learn how to read Tarot cards, so she purchased Eden Grey's "Complete Guide to the Tarot" and the Hoi Polloi deck and began practicing on herself.

That was back in 1975 when she bought her first deck and book. Truthfully, she was having a super hard time because of the long explanations and meanings for each card. What further confused her were the reversed meanings. She still pushed on and kept practicing on herself and a few family members and close friends. She had to use the book while reading.

Then in 1983, she went to a reader and was fascinated by her interpretations of the cards. They were different from all the meanings she had seen in all other books. She attended the teacher’s exclusive, invitation-only class and learned her way! After many years, she decided to gather and organize the lessons from that class. The result is this little book that is power packed with information...no fluff, minimal illustrations, and no long-winded explanations. It's a unique blend of esoteric Tarot meanings combined with astrology and numerology.

She included a few astrology "lessons" in the event you aren't familiar with the zodiac, along with simple numerology explanations. You can use these simple meanings to learn what's going on in your own life. Tarot cards will always give you little clues...you just need to know how to interpret them! Just remember that when you lay out the cards, they will tell you what you need to know and not necessarily what you want to know. You can analyze your life and the lives of others. It might give you and others the hope and guidance everyone so desperately needs.

Since the first edition, Katie has added material to this book, including symbols and colors in the Tarot and five sample layouts with interpretations. She initially wanted to keep the book basic rather than complicated. However, she realized there were some readers who wanted to become more immersed in the Tarot cards, so she provided more in-depth details. Now you will find chapters on colors and symbols in Tarot cards. She doesn’t personally use them in her readings, but maybe this additional information will encourage you to enhance your knowledge of the cards.

Katie also listened to the readers who were kind enough to write reviews, and it seemed as though some were disappointed because there were no "examples" of layouts in the book. So, she took pictures of five layouts and explained them the best she could. Please remember that the author is not a professional photographer, so they might look amateurish. That's because they are!

Now…if you are confused, frustrated and/or fed up with other Tarot card books that have long explanations and meanings and then reversed meanings as you are attempting to learn how to read Tarot cards, Scroll up and click on the "buy" button and be inspired. Please remember to let her know what you think of the book with your welcome review.

NOTE: The paperback version does not have the colors of the cards because of the exorbitant printing costs involved.

About the Author

It’s no wonder that Katie has been living in the metaphysical world nearly her entire life. Maybe that’s because she was born on a blue moon in Pisces or her interest was carried over from a previous life. She first experienced “reading cards” at the age of 10 when she used a fortune-telling game called Gong Hee Fot Choy that belonged to her aunt. One day, she felt compelled to walk into the Psychic Eye in Las Vegas and soon realized why. There she found that same game that she “played” as a child and quickly purchased it. When going to the street carnivals and amusement parks, she was always attracted to the fortune-telling machine like the one in the movie “Big.” She feels spirits, can sense energy vibrations of others, and constantly hones her increasing clairvoyant skills. In 1970, she picked up her first astrology book, Linda Goodman’s “Sun Signs.” She started reading tarot cards in 1975 using Eden Grey’s “Complete Guide to the Tarot” as stated in the book’s description. In 1976, she taught herself how to read palms using “The Complete Book of Palmistry” by Joyce Wilson and still has the original book containing her notations. Katie believes in reincarnation and has done past life regressions using self-hypnosis. She read, “You Were Born Again to be Together” by Dick Sutphen in 1976 and found that the book contained beliefs identical to her own. In 1979, a man who had studied under Sydney Omarr offered to teach her how to do astrology charts manually using complicated mathematical calculations. She now uses software to do charts and is able to interpret them without the use of reference books. Hint: Astrology is a lot more than the “sun sign.” Outside of the metaphysical world, in the “real world,” Katie lives with her three mutts: Romeo, Rascal, and Maxwell Smart, her newest addition. She is a voracious reader, is an advocate for animals, is both a history and a movie buff, is somewhat of a trivia nut, and loves to dance. She is currently thinking about writing a book about fun little tricks of palmistry. Hint: You can determine a person’s IQ or whether or not the person is generous. It comes in handy if you are checking out a possible mate.
