I totally understand that having a million keywords on a card is not functional for readings. (I don't have bad eyesight, but I felt that after a while the i,t and r blended together and I had to focus to make out some of the words).Īlso, I found the keywords on the cards quite helpful for readings but the keywords in the guidebook lacking. However, I didn't like the italic font used in the first section for each card. For every card, there is a paragraph or two about its meaning, some keywords, and an omen (what the card could mean in a reading or a suggested action to take). The guidebook explains in short what the basic astrological terms mean and how to work with the deck (plus a few spreads) and then gives the meanings of the cards. If you too think Astrology is bs or doesn't make sense, give this set a try! As a former skeptic, it's quick, easy, and very accurate for me!īoth the deck and guidebook are of great quality and well-thought-out! The guidebook obviously covers only the very basics (if so), but it is excellent for beginners in astrology because it provides enough information for someone to make sense of what each term means without overwhelming the reader with too many details. The creator's site offers a free Natal Chart print-out, as well as a monthly "activity book" subscription designed to help you practice Astrology and integrate it into your regular Practice. This set won't teach you how to map your own Natal Charts, but it can help you decipher them after you input the info. Tarot readers will especially appreciate that the cards have recurring images to remind you which Hermetic Element each Sign is. Obviously, most Tarot readings should also be a narrative, but this deck really relies on the reader to be the teller of their own story. This deck is designed to be read as a narrative - building a story from keywords, images, and intuition. Horoscopes should be personally read for an individual to make sense, just like Tarot readings. I see now why "pop culture" horoscopes never worked for me - it's like pulling one Tarot card each for 12 groups of 800,000 people and expecting it to be accurate for all of them. So I decided to give this a shot after reading reviews from seasoned Astrologists that said wished they had this tool as beginners.Īfter only 10 minutes of reading the beautifully succinct guidebook, I understood the system and was doing Astrology for the first time! I've been a Tarot reader for 17 years, but the only Golden Dawn association I hadn't researched yet was Astrology because horoscopes never made sense to me.
