HOLMES
i currently have 30 tarot books,
and i am beginning to feel that there is nothing new under the sun,
is there something new to write about the tarot at this stage ?
originally i was picking out books based on their reviews on amazon, thinking that i was getting a nice wide approach to the tarot from many differnt points of view.
yet as i realize now that most tarot comes from the golden dawn , and the gold dawn was heavily influenced by the marsielles.
(NO I DON'T HAVE ONE YET,, EWW NO PIPS BUT THAT IS A DIFFERNT TOPIC ehhe )
i have looked at the tarot through numerology ,
astrology (no more tarot and astrology books to order sigh)
psychology (that is still interesting ,
i am looking at tarot through a looking glass, and the book off tarot passages here,
http://www.tarotpassages.com/sargent.htm
it is the only book i know that explores the marsilles from a psychology point of view (and besides the qabalistic tarot explores the marsilles period )
there is still qabbalah and tarot left to explore,
example i have to study the paths in great detail.
and i am looking for this rare out of print book,
archetypes on the tree of life,,
(i mean who wants to pay over 50 dollars for a book ?)
i saw on ebay that it came upon a midnight clear was going cheap ,, until the first auction went up to 50 dollars,, and so did the next auction,, and now the ones automally have a higher bid requirement of over 30 dollars.
and so they have done the same to the books i been seeking waaah ,
it is like they are holding gun to my prized books head saying
if you want this book fork over a 50 dollars,,
heck in canadian that is almost 70 dollars.
so for what are you looking for in a tarot book ?
if you are just starting out into the tarot what kind of books are you looking for ,
for me i took the books for deck book .
and the as much books as possible route lol (that is after i look at the tarot books in the store for i didn't do internet shopping in 90s lol )
what kind of book do you wish was published ?
