Rodney, I think it's an important topic.
Holy Smoke, thanks for the link and tips
Some books I'm finding helpful at a beginner level are:
"A Magical Course in Tarot" by Michele Morgan stresses intuitive readings with a necessity of using all upright cards to view them better.
"Power Tarot" by Trish MacGregor and Phyllis Vega uses only upright meanings and makes an "Empowerment" statement for each card that can be easily adapted into an affirmation.
"Romancing the Tarot" by Phyllis Vega uses only upright meanings. The infidelity spread gave me a chuckle.
"Taking the Tarot to Heart" by Mark McElroy only uses upright cards in it's spread examples, but avoids taking an upright only stance and includes "shadow" meanings for the majors in appendix A. Stresses using the tarot as a problem solving and self-discovery tool.
The "World Spirit Tarot" is a deck that is meant to be used upright only and was designed to be balanced without reversals.
