Seventy eight degrees of wisdom a book of tarot by rachel pollack

This is the very best book for insights into interpretations of Tarot cards, at least for the intellectuals among us. It suggests sources of meaning in myth and legend, especially Hebrew tradition, for each card. It has helped me plumb the depths of my own unconscious to find meaning in my current life situations. The book is clearly written by someone who has deep intuition into the psychology and cultural traditions of the modern Tarot user. Unlike superficial "recipe books" for reading Tarot cards, this book acknowledges the importance of the reader's personal situation and deep thought processes for assigning meaning to the cards.

The Sage speaks through the tarot...

I refer to Ms. Pollack's brillant book, Seventy-eight Degrees of Wisdom, time and time again. It gives wonderful sight to the seeker, and speaks of the timeless connections to God & Universe through the study of the tarot. There is an eloquence in her writing that make for several AHA! moments, just great!!!

Inspirational, lucid, Insightful

Reading this book was sheer delight. Rachel Pollack does an excellent job of sharing her extensive knowledge of Tarot from a multitude of angles. My primary interest in reading it was psychology. I got the same kind of buzz reading this book as I usually get when I read Carl Jung - a deep-rooted feeling of seeing the world in a different light. Pollack spends a lot of time explaining the detailed symbolisms of the cards, and this is exactly what makes the book valuable. This approach is far more engaging than just offering 'reading formulas' for the cards. Unlike science, spiritual knowledge cannot be presented merely as facts, it needs to be felt and experienced. Fully comprehending the book could be a challenge for the novice reader, but well worth the effort, especially if you're a reflective person. My only criticism of the text is the occasional spelling error. The editor needs to do a better job of proof reading.

Together in one volume for the first time, these are the classic texts that helped launch the modern Tarot renaissance. Often described as the Bible of Tarot readers, they bring awareness of myth and modern psychology to the Tarot's ancient symbolism.
