Spiral Tarot
The major arcana cards of the Spiral Tarot Cards deck show the astrological sign and Hebrew letter that
correspond to that card. The minor arcana suits are the standard Wands, Swords,
Cups and Pentacles. The court card page has been changed to a princess.
Steventon considers the different numbered cards as falling under the aegis of
the corresponding major arcana card. For example, the twos belong to the High
Priestess and the threes to the Empress. There is a separate companion book for
this deck called Spiral Tarot. Steventon explores "legends and traditions
of mythical imagery and ancient Celtic wisdom."
  
The perfect companion to a
beautiful tarot deck
The Spiral Tarot deck is one of the most beautiful,
thought provoking and enlightening decks I have ever worked with. This
book is brilliant and the perfect companion to this deck because it
helps guide the reader to the depths of each card. It is very detailed
and explains extensively the thought behind each symbol and it is
fantastic for beginners and experienced people alike.
It definitely enriches the experience of using this
deck and in fact gives a brilliant grounding for beginners who want to
learn and helps provide a deeper understanding of a number of
archetypes for the more experienced. Apart from the meaning of each
card there are also detailed types of spreads with very helpful
examples of readings. Overall a brilliant book, very well written,
without being patronising to the reader's intuition. A must have if you
are using the Spiral Tarot deck. |
