Tarot Spells (Janina Renee) - Difference between the two editions of this book?


Does anyone know if there are any differences between the older and newer versions of Janina Renee's Tarot Spells? The older publication with the brown cover vs. the newer edition with white cover. Is it just different cover art or does the newer edition contain revisions/additions?

Thanks!

ETA: I have heard that in some of the spells, there are some discrepancies between what cards are mentioned in text vs. the cards that are pictured in the layout. Is this in the older version, and corrected in the new version?

Got my answer by contacting Llewellyn. The newer edition has corrected the mistakes from the first edition (some of the images/text not matching up).

I also just read that the updated version features FAQ's from readers, answered by the author, such as how to customize spells to fit your individual needs.

I hope that's the only mistake in my edition. I don't want to use a spell thinking it will improve my finances and instead I turn myself into a toad.
Lol.

I want the new edition now!
Thanks for your detective work

Another difference between the old and new edition is that the new edition adds in the element of fire to her sample ritual. The old edition only uses earth, air and water. Let's face it, the consuming element is dangerous.

Judging from your icon and "papa toad", would i be correct in assuming that you had a run-in with the old book (with the mistakes and omissions) and accidentally turned yourself into a toad? :-o

Hehe.

I think i should get the new one....
