“You don’t need to have special psychic abilities to read Tarot cards effectively. But you do need to be curious — curious about who you are and  about the opportunities for growth in your day-to-day life experiences. The Tarot becomes a way of deep listening.” - Paul Quinn

In Tarot for Life, Paul Quinn transforms the Tarot from fortune-telling into the ultimate Self Help tool for intuitive guidance, empowerment, and well-being. Discover how the Tarot, as a vibrant way to access inner wisdom, can be applied to gain  meaningful, practical insights into your relationships, career, family, and personal growth. Quinn explains how the Tarot can offer soul-directed advice to help you make wiser choices, and he shows how even the cards that look most troubling can convey support. Newcomers and experts alike will value the author’s thought-provoking examples and entertaining anecdotes that explain the complexities without diminishing the Tarot’s mystical core.  Quinn’s unique view opens the Tarot as a lifelong aid to enhancing awareness, self-knowledge, and joy — right here, right now. Here is just a sampling of what you’ll enjoy in this wise and engaging book:

  • Spiritual, psychological, and practical meanings of the 78 cards — with engaging casebook stories for  each
  • Guidelines for conducting Tarot readings with love and integrity for yourself or others
  • Self-Reflective questions to deepen and integrate your understanding of the universal archetypes of the Major Arcana
  • Approaches for interpreting reversed cards and cards that offer advice
  • Self Care: When not to give readings for yourself or others
  • Thoughts on prediction, free will, and the Law of Attraction
  • Tips for asking the right questions, creating your own Tarot spreads, performing collaborative readings, handling difficult disclosures, and much more

ENDORSEMENTS

“It’s very easy for books on Tarot to get lost in themselves and become so abstruse—so occult, which is to say, hidden—that only a handful of people can understand them. Coming from the other direction, too many Tarot books will dumb down the subject, ignoring the deeper levels in favor of formulaic meanings for every card.  What’s harder, obviously, is to do both, to make the esoteric not only accessible but in service to people who want to understand the cards for that most practical of purposes, readings.  The ability to do this is what makes Paul’s book satisfying and exciting.”

- from the foreword by Rachel Pollack

“Tarot for Life is a masterful guide to better understanding your inner self and the challenges life brings on. No one better shows you how to use Tarot as it was designed to be used, for dialogue and conversation with your Higher Self. This book is a delightful way to grow to your fullest potential. I love it.”

- Sonia Choquette, Ph.D.
author, Trust Your Vibes, The Psychic Pathway, True Balance

“Takes Tarot to a deeper level–not just for ‘fortunetelling,’ but as a tool for initiation on the higher planes. Paul Quinn has written a clear and concise handbook for understanding these important archetypes and their meaning in your life.”

- Anodea Judith, M.A.
author, Wheels of Life, Eastern Body-Western Mind, The Illuminated Chakras

“Paul Quinn has seamlessly integrated the best of Tarot tradition with a new vision for the twenty-first century. While maintaining respect for the Tarot as a divinatory tool, he also demonstrates its estimable value for personal development and increasing consciousness of one’s life path.”

- Dr. Kenneth James, Jung Institute of Chicago

“Paul Quinn’s valuable book explores the universal spiritual power that lies not only in the ancient symbols of the Tarot, but in our own willingness to find the meaning and message of those symbols deep within ourselves. It is a useful and entertaining guide for every spiritual journey.”

- Reverend Ed Townley, Unity minister
author, Meditations on the Mount: A Daily Guide to Spiritual Living

“Thought-provoking and beautifully descriptive. A fantastic guide for the reader. Paul’s humor is a wonderful teaching tool.”

- Gayle Seminara-Mandel, Owner, Transitions Bookplace

“The manner in which the cards were presented was something that I wish I had had available when I was beginning to study the Tarot. I found this book to be easy to follow, containing an enormous wealth of information. I feel that this is an essential book for any Tarot library, for any level of Tarot student.”

- Bonnie Cehovet, editor, Gateway to Tarot
