71-Eight of Coins – Reversed Golden Deck

Your Chosen Card – Eight of Coins Reversed Golden Deck

When reversed, the Eight of Disks suggests that you may not be putting in the needed time and effort to do a job well. Maybe you don’t care about producing a quality product, or maybe you are cutting corners just to get the job done. Remember that Rome wasn’t built in a day. Although there may be a short-term gain in your current approach, in the long run you are likely to feel a sense of dissatisfaction. When the storm arrives, it’s comforting to know you have put something away for a rainy day.

Book Details
Complete Book of Tarot: If reading the tarot involves using the cards to prime your intuition so you are able to tell a coherent story, then mastering the art of tarot divination requires practice in storytelling. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. The art of tarot involves translating the images on the cards into a mythological tale that can be of benefit to the querent. When you read the cards for someone, you collaborate with the person to create a story that puts some aspect of their life into meaningful perspective. In this process, the reader and the querent are spurred on by the images on the cards.

Tarot Books

Complete Book of Tarot: The Mamluk deck entered Europe via Spain and gradually spread to other countries. It was not long before the Europeans, upon noticing that the Mamluk court cards consisted of three men and no women, decided to add one to the court. This feminine touch resulted in a deck with a king, queen, cavalier, and knave. The inclusion of a queen in the European playing card deck may have been motivated by the actual dynasties and rulership in a culture where queens held positions of authority.

Complete Book of Tarot: In this age of the Internet, tarot readings can now be done online with the querent residing quite some distance in space from the reader and thus unable to have physical contact with the cards. To allow the querent active participation, I have evolved the following method for reading online. After discussing the querent’s concerns and the type of reading that might be appropriate, I ask the querent to reflect on the question while I shuffle the cards. I instruct the querent to tell me to stop shuffling when the time feels right. I then cut the cards and reassemble the deck, placing the bottom cut on top.
