The Easiest Way to Learn the Tarot—EVER!!: Kindle Version (Aphrodite's Book of Secrets 1)


Dusty White - 2009
    Too many "learn the tarot books" give you a handful of spreads and some keywords to memorize—or they give you endless paragraphs of words you have to try to remember every time you stare at your cards. The result you get from those books is that you will always be "referring back to the book" to figure out what your card means, in a reading. Look: We’ve all been there, and it gets frustrating when you are trying to learn to cast spreads and learn how to tell the future, or know what someone is thinking—or doing—and you end up staring at your cards and getting vague answers. That all stops here, and it all stops now. Simply put, this is the fastest and easiest way to learn how to read cards. That is why it is the #1 tarot textbook in the world. In this book you will learn what your cards mean and how to cast spreads easily: Just look at the cards (which is what you are going to be doing anyway when you are casting spreads for yourself or clients). Written by the #1 tarot teacher in the world, a tarot expert with over 40 years of experience reading cards, and decades of teaching beginning students and professionals.

Our job is to help you actually learn what the card images mean when you look at them so that you are NEVER WRONG and never in doubt. We have you do lots of fun exercises and even play a few games with your cards to sharpen your awareness and strengthen your intuition to the point where someday you won't even need your tarot cards any more.

No more trying to force formula, like numerology or the Kabbalah into the tarot. In this special ebook version you will get to start right into the fun and easy exercises that help you see inside each tarot card, without the dogma and invented “Fool’s Journey” nonsense that is a complete lie (you would find this out anyway after you have read for a while, so you might as well know now). If you stop and think about it for a moment—hands-on practice is the *only way* to develop real tarot skills. You could read dozens of books and never become a truly great tarot reader, and too many people do that every day. With this one book and a deck of cards you will learn how to read your cards in any situation, for yourself or for others, even paying clients, and you will get access to free downloadable worksheets where you can practice your skills and write down your own thoughts on what the cards in your hands mean to you.

Unique, fun, easy-to-learn exercises teach you how to hear what the cards are trying to tell you. This is not yet another book of Tarot card meanings.

Real Magic: Ancient Wisdom, Modern Science, and a Guide to the Secret Power of the Universe


Dean Radin - 2018
    Are such powers really possible? Science says yes.According to noted scientist and bestselling author of The Conscious Universe, Dean Radin, magic is a natural aspect of reality, and each of us can tap into this power with diligent practice.But wait, aren't things like ESP and telepathy just wishful thinking and flights of the imagination? Not according to the author, who worked on the US government's top secret psychic espionage program known as Stargate. Radin has spent the last forty years conducting controlled experiments that demonstrate that thoughts are things, that we can sense others' emotions and intentions from a distance, that intuition is more powerful than we thought, and that we can tap into the power of intention (think The Secret, only on a more realistic and scientific level). These dormant powers can help us to lead more interesting and fulfilling lives.Beginning with a brief history of magic over the centuries (what was called magic two thousand years ago is turning out to be scientific fact today), a review of the scientific evidence for magic, a series of simple but effective magical techniques (the key is mental focus, something elite athletes know a lot about), Radin then offers a vision of a scientifically-informed magic and explains why magic will play a key role in frontiers of science.
