Why read it?
1 author picked Understanding the Tarot Court as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
It’s said that court cards can be the trickiest for Tarot readers to interpret. This was certainly true for me when I was starting out, so Understanding the Tarot Court became invaluable to me.
Mary K. Greer is another Tarot classicist and has spent decades delving into the history and usage of Tarot. The book goes deep into the symbolism and meanings of various cards—both upright and reversed—even going so far as to equate them to Myers-Briggs personality types.
Perhaps more importantly, it also has excellent explanations of how to read these quirky cards.
