I received this book from Schiffer Publishing and had already heard about the book from a few of my tarot friends on Facebook. It is exciting to see books just take off in popularity right off the bat.
Angelo did something unique and started a Facebook group in order to help people with their year-long tarot journey. Here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/124441448340310/ He is all in with this book and I think that is why it is becoming such a best-seller already. Amazon is already out of stock but there has been a reprint and new books are on the way to the bookseller.
If you start at the beginning of the year you are asked to discover which tarot card represents your year. And there is a formula to get the right card. My card was the Hermit #9.
If you are new to the tarot, Angelo has a nice grid of tarot meanings at the back of the book for all the cards, and the Card of the Year descriptions are at the front of the book for the major arcana. It is really convenient if you need a quick help on meanings.
There is also an area at the front for your own interpretations of each of the cards. For example, the 4 of Cups, I heard someone once describe it as an epiphany and that description so resonated with me. That is the type of thing you would write there. Your own take on the card meanings. Things you just don’t want to forget.
The book is solid, hardback and about an inch thick. There is a page inside for each day of the year. You can draw a card of the day in the morning and try to guess what it means for your day. Then at the end of the day you draw reflections cards and see how your card of the day meshed with your actual day.
I think this book is unique and cool and it will get all of us to focus more on our own spiritual journeys instead of always focusing on others or clients or whomever wants a reading from us.
Definitely check this one out.
Angelo also has a book that came out not long ago called Tarot: Unlocking the Arcana. In it he speaks about his journey in tarot and how he came to make YouTube videos before there were any readers on YT. His videos are unique and they are designed to help the tarot reader grow and expand their tarot journey.
I hope you try this book and focus on yourself and your journey for a change.
I received this book from Schiffer Publishing and asked to give an honest review of their product.
