Tarot as Storyteller cover

Learn how to intuitively read divination cards

• Explores cartomancy as psychic storytelling, outlining techniques to develop intuition, psychic ability, and analytical questioning

• Explains how to look deeply at the symbolic pictures each card provides and open your mind to the tale being told through your intuition

• Shows how to interpret each card’s symbolism through activated prayer, spell work, and guided journeys that introduce readers to the Major Arcana as personal experiences

In this guide to the art of cartomancy, psychic medium Salicrow shows novice and seasoned practitioners alike how to read divination cards with greater accuracy and more profound insight. She shares practices to help you develop psychic ability—including empathic protection, body dowsing, utilizing sacred space, and divine timing—and how to build your own personal symbolic language. She offers techniques for developing intuition and analytical questioning, providing a clearer picture of the players, situations, and details, and thereby encouraging you to take on the role of storyteller by looking deeply into the symbols and tales that each card holds.

Expanding the concept of each card’s symbolism, Salicrow explores the meanings of tarot and oracle cards through activated prayer, spell work, and guided journeys that introduce the Major Arcana as personal experiences. She also shows how to pick a deck, cleanse and bless the cards, and properly store them, and she presents many spreads that look at relationships, career guidance, and healing.

Through her insightful teachings, Salicrow demonstrates that card reading enhances the connection between intuition and imagination. With each reading, your storytelling ability will grow, as will your inner knowing for how to ask better questions.
