Book Details
Complete Book of Tarot: Not long ago I attended a weekend workshop by Rachel Pollack, whose 1980 book 78 Degrees of Wisdom, A Psychological Approach to the Tarot was highly influential in changing the way tarot is practiced in the English-speaking world. At one point during the conference, Rachel commented that she and Mary K. Greer are credited with ‘rescuing tarot from fortune-telling’ in the 1980s. Prior to that time, the use of the tarot focused primarily on telling the future.

Reversed Cards: For me, the Three of Wands in the upright position has always represented the idea of ‘go big or go home.’ I am sure it has something to do with the figure always peering off the top of a cliff wondering about what is beyond the horizon. If in the upright position it is the ‘go big or go home’ card, then here in the blocked aspect, there is a good chance you’re still sitting on the couch freaking out about the whole concept of what ‘going big’ actually means. This is what we call resistance to expansion. We all suffer it at certain times in our lives. Leaving what you know behind for what you don’t know can be scary, but it might also be the best adventure of your life.

Complete Book of Tarot: The symbolism of numbers plays an important role in many forms of divination, including the tarot. In Western philosophy, the belief in the spiritual significance of numbers dates at least as far back as ancient Greece, especially the time of Pythagoras. Often described as the first pure mathematician, Pythagoras of Samos (c. 570 BCE–c. 495 BCE) is credited with the Pythagorean theorem that we learned in high school. Pythagoras was a major proponent of the symbolic significance of numbers. According to his biographer Iamblichus (c. 300 CE), Pythagoras taught that number is the ruler of forms and ideas, and the cause of gods and daemons.
