Tarot Disassembled Guidebook - Deconstructing the Symbols of the Major and Minor Arcana

Jennifer Cooper Steidley

Beschreibung

This guide shows the traditional symbolism of the tarot in bold graphics, allowing readers to connect intuitively to the deeper aspects of the cards. The Tarot Disassembled Guidebook provides fresh insight into interpreting the traditional symbolism found in the tarot. In this companion book to the Tarot Disassembled card deck, author and creator Jennifer Cooper Steidley has deconstructed the symbolism, presenting it in bold graphics, allowing the user to connect with the tarot in a completely intuitive way—free from any pictorial narrative around gender, skin color, age, size, ability, or any other human constructs. Sometimes we need to take something apart in order to appreciate what’s in it. The same is true for the ingredients of the tarot: the individual symbols that make up the complex picture of a tarot card. There is potential for deep understanding that comes with the act of disassembling, and this guidebook deconstructs each of the seventy-eight cards. The Fool card is shown as a satchel, a dog, the sun, a feather, a flower, a mountain. Each card remains undeniably recognizable. The deconstructed simplicity allows tarot’s rich symbolism to become clear, and readers can see how the symbols wind their way through each card in the deck. Tarot Disassembled is based on the symbology of the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot—arguably the most iconic and widely used deck in the world. Once the disassembling of tarot symbols is fully understood, you can begin to apply this deconstructing technique to other decks to find the inner patterns. This unique and innovative guidebook includes keywords, astrological and planetary associations, and elemental associations for each tarot card. It can be used with any deck based on the Rider-Waite system or as a companion to the Tarot Disassembled card deck, sold separately.

In The Company Of Cows

Sequoyah Branham

No one listens to Nora Kelly, except her cows. Thanks to a lengthy drought, she is in danger of losing them, her livelihood, her job, and the one place she feels that she can truly be herself— the ranch. 
The heifers never belittle or run her over when she tries to speak. They don't mind that she fumbles over her words– in fact, they are the only creatures who have ever just listened to her.  
Unfortunately, no rain means no grass, and no grass means no cows. Nora's one hope is that her boss will find a new piece of land to lease, but they only have six weeks to secure a place and relocate. Determined to stay with the heifers, Nora scrounges up every ounce of bravery she has and goes to the only person who could possibly help: her intimidatingly successful uncle that she barely knows. He's a ranch real estate agent with connections, who doesn't have time for an awkward niece.  
Just when a lease finally fits all of her boss' specifications, Nora discovers the land is already leased to her uncle, who might just be more family than she's ever experienced. What if her boss taking this lease breaks the budding bond between Nora and her uncle? But is she really willing to lose the only place she feels safe?  
In the end, Nora must decide what staying in the company of cows is worth.
