The Big Book of Tarot Meanings: The Beginner's Guide to Reading the Cards by Sam Magdaleno
My Rating: ★★★★

I received a copy from Fair Winds Press through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I’ve been reading Tarot on and off for several years now, and I enjoy picking up new books on it because sometimes there’s something new to learn. I also like to find books I think will be great for people who are new or newer to reading Tarot. In this book, one will find a good amount of information about what each card means. For people new to Tarot the information covers what the card could mean when it comes up reversed or right side up for general, romance, life, money, professional and other types of readings. I think that information will be very helpful to new folks because it can be confusing when one we are new to it, especially as we’re learning to trust our instincts on the messages we’re receiving that don’t fall under what we learned.

While the information is great, each card gets a page featuring the artwork on the card alone. Each of these pages are stunning to look at with all the vibrant colors featured. The artwork pages won’t cover every deck, as each deck has its own artwork, it’s still great to see them featured so largely on their designated pages.

I think this is a great book to have or gift because it’s a great guide to have on hand. It’ll be great in aiding those new to Tarot, but also to have on hand for the moments we’re questioning ourselves while on our learning path.
