Everything You Need to Know to Begin Reading Tarot Cards
For centuries, Tarot cards have been consulted for divination by those seeking answers from the unseen realms. The Tarot has been credited with illuminating solutions to major dilemmas, and even helping people avoid future misfortunes. The Tarot experience can indeed be empowering, bringing clarity to confusing situations and showing us that we have the ability to shape our future based on the choices we make in the present. Far more than mere "fortune telling," the Tarot is a tool for meditation and reflection, for seeing new angles that give way to broader perspectives about how we approach our lives.
In this 2nd edition of Tarot for Beginners, best-selling author Lisa Chamberlain opens the door for newcomers to the Tarot in her trademark clear and straightforward manner. She dispels old myths and misconceptions about the Tarot, providing an objective look at its origins and its divinatory potential for 21st-century readers. Tailored especially for those who want to read the cards for themselves, this guide offers strategies for getting familiar with each card, a step-by-step breakdown of the process of a reading, options for tailoring the approach to suit your unique style, and advice for getting the most out of reading the cards for yourself.
Most guides to the Tarot are centered on a specific deck, such as the Waite-Smith, the Tarot of Marseille, or other decks ranging from the well-known to the rather obscure. While these books can be useful and informative, their card interpretations are largely restricted to the particular deck they focus on. Tarot for Beginners takes a different approach, offering basic card meanings that can be applied to any deck, and used in tandem with any descriptions that accompany the deck you've chosen to work with. So no matter which Tarot deck you use, the information in this guide is relevant, providing a solid starting point for a skill you can carry with you for a lifetime.
Foundations in the Art of Divination
Tarot can be thought of as a kind of language through which we can hear and understand divine messages. This communication comes through the individual cards and through the symbolic system of the deck as a whole. Tarot for Beginners sets you up to learn this language with a thorough grounding in the key concepts surrounding the Tarot, including:
- The origins and evolution of the Tarot as a divinatory art - A comprehensive overview of the Major, Minor, and Court Arcana - Tips for choosing your first deck and getting acquainted with your cards - Beginner tips and exercises for interpreting the cards - Instructions for the basic 3-card spread and the 10-card Celtic Cross, two of the most widely-used spreads in contemporary Tarot - A step-by-step process for conducting Tarot readings - Advice on reading the cards for yourself - Core meanings of each card in the standard Tarot deck
The art of Tarot takes time and experience to master, and your willingness to study the cards, practice reading, and hone your intuition will be key to your development as a Tarot reader.

Everything You Need to Know to Start Working With Magical Crystals Today
Since the beginning of recorded history, people have revered the beauty and power of crystals and other mineral stones, incorporating them into religious artwork, weaponry, healing techniques and-of course-magic From the quartz talismans of Egyptian pharaohs to the Aztec ceremonial masks of turquoise, malachite and jade, these natural delights have been prized by cultures all around the globe.
Today's practitioners of the magical arts use crystals for a variety of powerful workings related to health, wealth, love, protection, divination and more. Whether it's in the form of an elixir for imbibing confidence-promoting energies, a small polished stone placed with herbs in a love sachet, or a favorite crystal emitting positive vibrations in your sacred space, crystals and other mineral stones are powerful and highly versatile tools of magic. In Crystal Magic, Wiccan author Lisa Chamberlain explores the many magical uses of these natural beauties and the underlying Universal forces that make it all work. But while this guide is written from the perspective of Wiccans and other Witches, you need not consider yourself a Wiccan or a Witch to benefit from the magical power of crystals and stones. As you will see within these pages, the energies of these Earth creations are universal and can be harnessed by anyone, anytime. So whether you're new to magic, new to crystals, or new to both, you'll find this guide to be an invaluable resource for your spiritual practice.
Most books about crystal magic fall into one of two categories: encyclopedias and spell books. While there are some wonderfully comprehensive encyclopedia-style books out there that describe the magical properties of hundreds of different crystals and stones, they tend to provide little or no practical information about using them in spellwork. Likewise, there are a few good practical books that focus on crystal-centered spells, but they don't tell you much about the nature and properties of the crystals and stones involved in the work. Crystal Magic was created to bridge these two worlds by incorporating both elements: a solid overview of 13 widely-used crystals in Wiccan magic, along with a comprehensive look at their practical applications in everyday spellwork. This approach is especially handy for those who are just beginning to build a collection of magical stones, since the spells themselves use only the stones featured in the guide
Foundations of Crystal Magic
Of course, it's not enough to simply buy a few pretty stones and say some magic words over them. You have to build a personal relationship with your crystals if you want to work with them successfully. This guide will help you to do just that, with plenty of need-to-know information, including:
- How crystals and mineral stones are formed in the Earth and how they're classified - How their unique energetic vibrations can help you shape the reality of your daily life on the physical, emotional, and spiritual planes - Profiles of 13 of the most widely used crystals and stones in contemporary Witchcraft - How to choose and care for your own crystals, including clearing and charging them for use in magic - How to harness the projective and receptive energies of crystals - Several spells and magical workings using crystals, including elixirs, candle spells and charms
By the end of this guide, you'll have a solid foundation from which to build your own practice of working with crystals. But be sure to let the stones themselves guide you as well-they are natural teachers from deep inside the Earth and can aid you on your path no matter where it leads you
Everything You Need to Know About the Wiccan Wheel of the Year
The ancients lived by a fundamental truth that is often lost in our fast-paced world-that time is circular as much as it is linear. Following the Wheel of the Year by honoring the eight Sabbats, or days of power as they're often called, helps us integrate this concept of circular time into our daily lives. The Wheel provides a sense of rhythm to the year, as the equal increments of days and weeks between the Sabbats allow us to feel the seasons turning in a beautiful symmetry.
The Sabbats also provide a context for honoring the dynamic relationship between the Goddess and the God. As the seasons turn, the divine pair shifts from mother and child to co-creative consorts and then back again. We honor these shifting roles and aspects throughout the year, with each Sabbat representing a point in the overarching story. This close participation with the cycles of the season is what some Wiccans refer to as "turning the Wheel."
Perhaps because it's such a big topic all on its own, many introductory sources on Wicca tend to gloss over the Wheel, providing just a paragraph or two on each holiday. In Wheel of the Year Magic, best-selling author Lisa Chamberlain devotes a full chapter to each of the Sabbats: their significance within the context of the ever-changing seasons, the part they play in the mythological cycle of the Goddess and the God, and the spiritual themes they ask us to reflect upon as we celebrate them. So whether you're just starting out in Wicca or you're a seasoned practitioner looking for new perspectives, this guide can support and inspire your journey. And while the information here is rooted in Wicca, much of it is applicable to Pagans of all stripes, as well as anyone who is simply curious about the rich traditions surrounding these milestones of the Old Religion.
For those who include spellwork in their practice, the energies surrounding the Sabbats make them excellent opportunities to work magic. In fact, many Wiccans and other Witches like to incorporate spellwork and/or spellcraft into their Sabbat celebrations. As with all of Lisa's books, the spells and other workings included in this guide can be followed as-is or adapted to suit your individual style. They can also be a springboard for more ideas about how to approach magical work on these special occasions.
Foundations in Celebrating the Days of Power
A dynamic, creative and evolving approach to connecting with divine Nature is at the heart of Wicca and other forms of modern Paganism. Wheel of the Year Magic was written in this spirit, offering insight and information that will help you to build your own unique relationship with these eight days of power. Whatever your experience level, you can build on your knowledge with the information in this guide, including:
- The origins and development of the modern Wheel of the Year - The seasonal and spiritual significance of each of the eight days of power: Yule, Imbolc, Ostara, Beltane, Litha, Lammas, Mabon and Samhain - The pagan history behind each Sabbat-the myths, beliefs and customs that have inspired our modern celebrations - Suggestions for creating your own Sabbat celebrations, whether you're a solitary practitioner or working with fellow Witches - Spells and other magical workings aligned with the seasonal and divine energies of each Sabbat
When you choose to mark the Sabbats, you are participating in a timeless tradition of honoring the endless cycles of Nature and the divine workings of the Universe. As you grow in your practice from year to year, Wheel of the Year Magic will continue to be a trusted source of knowledge and inspiration. Enjoy the journey
