is that too many books or not enough.. ?

jema

i think you will be very very poor
but have a wonderful time!

oh one book i want to mention here too is the Tarot of the Spririt book. i think that even if you don't have the deck (which is a great deck by the way) the book is really something!

as for those you listed:
i want them too!!!
esp the jungians and the kabbalistic ones!
so you buy them and review them and tell us which was the best

Well, I got about the first 10 titles on your list and try to read / work through them one by one.

I cannot comment on the others but for the ones I have, I'd say go for them.

Holmes, that's most of my wishlist you've got there!

I've only got the 78DW and the Tarot Card Combinations (which really is a terrible book!). For now.

Holmes: That is quite a list! I have 5 of the books.
A favorite of mine is not on your list--"The Sacred Tarot Unveiled" by Allyson Walsh. It may be out of print.

i have around 9 of those books. i've collected them slowly over the years. there really are a lot of quality tarot books out there.

I looked at your list and wanted to mention that some of the books are definitely geared to a certain style of deck or reading tarot. It just may mean that the decks that you use will 'ask' for certain styles of books
to fit.
Rose Gwain's book of tarot and personality is Thoth-style in meanings and even recommends a 'suit of spirit' that integrates all the strengths of the four suits together. That might work with any of your Thoth-based decks or even the Deva Tarot, an unusual deck that has a fifth suite.
Mary Greer's Tarot for Yourself recommends tarots that has scenes on them, such as the Rider-Waite style.
Rachel Pollack's 78 Degrees is geared to Rider Waite styles.
Hazo Banhoff's Tarot and Journey of the Hero is a beautiful book of historical prints. But if you had also decided to buy Rachel Pollack's illustrated guide to tarot or Juliet Sharman Burke's Guide and Mastering the Tarot books, there's many similarities.
I enjoy the pretty mini-Connally images, but found her descriptions of the 9 and 10 of cups and some of her majors not my style. I realize the Botticelli-style posed figure in one of the illustrations reminds me of the lovely Birth of Venus, but the writing isn't my taste.
Best wishes and happy reading,
Mari H.

78 degrees of wisdom by rachael pollack
tarot for yourself by mary k greer.
tarot and the three of life finding everyday wisdom in the minor arcanna
tarot for the healing heart
tarot card combinations
tarot and psychology, spectrums of possiblities
inuitive tarot , a metaphysical approach to reading the tarot cards
the royal road , a manual of kabalistic medition of the tarot
all the connoly tarot books for the connoly deck (i didn't achieve the last book yet, )

as for reviews. well .
1. 78 degrees i liked for it helped me to understand the inuitive approach.
2. the tarot for yourself second edition i just got, but from what i can tell by reading it is in depth, and the excerises look to be rewarding (be attacking those soons in the months to come )
3. the tarot and tree of life really really really helped me to understand the minors, i must of reread it like 5 times and still get soemthing out of it. it helps me to understand that why the minors can't be all fun and games but goes from mercy to severity and how they compliment each other.
4.tarot and psychology help me to understand it psychological aspects of the tarot and how it can be a key to breaking in.
5.tarot for the healing heart i couldnt' read at the time i am not ready i guess.
6. tarot card combonations i got it,, skim through it a few times and said sure is a lot of locking in interpations ( by the author ) and put it down but i am sure i will go back to studying it as i was coming from a differnt mode of thinking at the time. even now i got it by the computer to look at and thinking i got to give this a chance as i wanted it lol. (i know if i give it the study i gave the other books (the 78 and the tarot minors books) i will improve my reading.
7.the inuitive tarot was a beginner book but it help me to spark my tarot system (they added the numbers to get higher numbers)
8.the royal road wasn't what i thought it was, i think it was the university language of explaining the tarot and the fact each major didn't go into the depths of say the rabbi tarot.
9. the connoly tarot books i didn't like , for it was coming from a old school point of view i found. again i skimmed it a few times and put it away in the cooler (i think for i was hoping it would go into depth of the connoly tarot itself. but instead took the book written for the rider tarot and just added their own pictures to the first book and just expanded on the tarot in the second book. and the pray involved in one of the editions i didn't think would brother me but it did, just too much religion in there i guess)

i didn't get a tarot book shelf eheh but i got a tarot cooler to put them in . :O)
