About This Book
Book Details
HEY! SMART GIRL! YES, YOU! Are you tired of vague, new agey fortune-telling? Readings that say, maybe you'll meet Prince Charming or maybe you'll get a dog? Do you want to know the future without checking your third eye or contacting your inner goddess?
Then you need The Smart Girl's Guide to Tarot!
Every tarot tells a story. This book will tell the modern user how to read that story, using language and examples relevant to contemporary life. Tarot can provide a glimpse into the future and help to clarify one's choices. Just like therapy, but a lot cheaper. The Smart Girl's Guide to Tarot provides a sharp, funny, fresh update of those old, stuffy, mystical tarot guides, unmuddling the meaning of the tarot for the general reader, and making readings more fun, diverting, and accurate.
The Smart Girl's Guide not only clarifies the archaic meanings of the cards, but it instructs the modern reader in how to interpret them, allowing her to be her own mystic--- because, let's face it, who knows your twisted psyche better than you?

In The News
“You'll only manage to put down this stimulating guide to the Tarot long enough to purchase or unearth a deck of cards---with which you'll be doing readings right away. But be warned, consulting the cards with The Smart Girl's Guide to Tarot is a lot like opening a box of Belgian chocolates: once you start it's really hard to stop.” —Susi Rajah, author of How to Spot a Bastard by His Star Sign
“While having the cards read by a gypsy crone is atmospheric, you can bet the fifteen bucks you just forked over to Madame Zorah that her reading will not be terribly trustworthy. Emmi Fredericks shows you how to do everything yourself---from asking good questions to interpreting the cards correctly.” —Thomas J. Craughwell, author of The Cat in the Dryer and 222 Other Urban Legends
