Book Review: The Forest of Souls: A Walk Through the Tarot
Author: Rachel Pollack Paperback, 312 pages Publisher: Llewellyn Publication date: September 2002 ISBN: 1567185339 Price & More Info: Click Here	In her new work, Rachel Pollack takes readers deeper into the Tarot than many would have thought possible. She says that "the Tarot works best as an instrument of our wisdom when we dare to ask it outrageous questions...." and she does, indeed, ask questions and explore concepts that are both complex and challenging. The Forest of Souls: A Walk Through the Tarot is written so that people who have had little exposure to Tarot can follow along (cards from many decks are reproduced right in the text), but also where people who have spent years studying can find new things - even the third and fourth times through. Rachel encourages us to let go of more traditional definitions and layouts, and to use the cards in "divine play". With tales of myth and history from different cultures and traditions, she moves from the origins of the Tarot to the origins of the universe… and through the inner workings of the human soul. Although this book is not about how to read the Tarot, it will significantly enhance your reading skills and enlarge your notion of what the Tarot can be and do. Many of the questions pondered also create transformation experiences as Rachel leads us to "explore possibilities outside our normal ways of thought." I highly recommend Forest of Souls to anyone interested in Tarot, no matter what their level of experience or skill. Reviewed by Sana Read another review of this book.
