Product Description

From Amazon

How do you read reversed tarot cards, the ones that appear upside down in a spread? In The Complete Book of Tarot Reversals, author Mary K. Greer addresses this commonly ignored or misunderstood situation. The most common wisdom about reversed cards is that they indicate resistance or problem areas. In fact, some readers simply abort a reading if too many cards show up as reversals, assuming that the person is too unreceptive, depressed, or dishonest to work with the reading. "Receiving too many reversals can make you feel like you have been dealt a 'losing hand,'" writes Greer, "but hopefully, this book will help turn that around." In fact, Greer claims that reversals offer a portal to the more mystical and esoteric influences in our lives. They "provide an opportunity to reach below logic and lead us into the realm of potentials and underlying causes where everything is connected and Magic happens." Greer (Tarot for Your Self), a seasoned reader and tarot teacher, suggests 12 possible reasons for a reversal. For instance, it could indicate a blocked or resistant situation or it could be due to the questioner getting ready to break through the condition pictured. Greer then offers interpretations of all 78 tarot cards (both reversed and upright), while giving more lengthy coverage to the fascinating twist of reversals. --Gail Hudson

Book Description

What do you do with the "other half" of the Tarot deck: the reversed cards? Experienced and beginning Tarot readers alike often struggle with interpreting cards when they're upside down.

Struggle in the dark no more. Respected Tarot scholar and author Mary K. Greer sheds light on the subject in Tarot Reversals, the first book in Llewellyn's new Special Topics in Tarot series. This series was created in response to an increasing demand for more Tarot books on advanced and specialized topics.

Reversals are not black and white-there is more than one way to interpret them. Explore these shades of grey with the twelve different methods for reading upside down cards. Upright and reversed interpretations for each of the 78 Tarot cards offer inner support, positive advice, and descriptions of the learning opportunities available, yet with a twist that is uniquely their own. Stimulate your intuition and deepen your connection to the cards as you explore the flip side of the Tarot.

2.0 out of 5 stars Did I miss something., Aug 31 2003
By

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Complete Book of Tarot Reversals (Paperback)
After reading the glowing reviews for this book, above, I had to wonder, did I miss something. Are we talking about the same book. So I went back and read it again.

Honestly I found nothing, new, or particularly interesting in the book. The interpretations of reversed cards in say Janina Renee's: "Tarot for a New Generation" is at least as good. I also found the text rather stilted. Each card has notes concerning Traditional, Health, and Shamanistic interpretation. Sounds like a gold mine, no? Unfortunately the authors attempt to crowbar the presentation of each card into the same mold does not come off, and only serves to hamstring what could have been a wonderful book with a text that has no flow. As a reference, this book may have some value, but I found it impossible to simply kick back and read.

If you have never read with reversals I would recommend Joan Bunnings book on the subject. Joan's voice as an author is clear, smooth and informative making her book a wonderful vehicle for increasing your confidence and adding reversals to your Tarot Toolbox.

If however you are an intermediate, or advanced reader, and looking for the depth implied by the special subjects in Tarot, series label, you just wont find it here. Still If you just must have this book, you may still be able to find my copy for half off at the used book store.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved this book, Jan 24 2006
By 
S. Peterson (Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Complete Book of Tarot Reversals (Paperback)
This book I use for upright and reversed meanings. I also loved that it gave shamanic interpretations of reverse cards and health. I have found the health stuff dead on when reading for clients who want answers in health. Even has more unusual illnesses like environmental illness, Chronic Fatigue etc.
