Here are some snippets from a few of my favorite books

Complete Book of Tarot: The tarot offers a tool for gaining perspective on complicated situations. As you lay out the cards, their images resonate with your question and shed light on the nuances of your circumstances. As you reflect on these images, you can gain clarity into the pros and cons of a decision you need to make. In this sense, reading the tarot is similar to the process of brainstorming, which can generate new ideas and help to solve problems.
