This was the first in my growing collection of tarot books (I have been studing for 6 months). It starts out with the minor arcana and does a very good job with these. Two charts are presented which I still look to for guidance. The first explains the associations of the four suits and the second presents five ways of looking at the numbering. Most books I have seen (except ones specifically based on numerology) give only cursory attention to the information contained in the numbers. The suggested meditations on the court families are also good for tuning into the family charateristics. Her treatment of the specific members of the family, however, leaves a little to be desired. In other words, you get a feel for the royal court of staffs but not for the role of kings, etc.Where Connolly loses me in the discussion of the major arcana. She begins with a prayer to each card. I am pagan and found little in the prayers that jived with my own spirtuality. A prayer to one card spoke of the evils of polythesim. Probably more useful to a Christian or Jew. The next "excerise" is actually a story. A paragraph is written about each card in sequential order. The story too has a decidely monotheist bend. The "excerise" is too recite the prayer to each card and then read that card's story out loud. All this did for me is make my voice grow hoarse.The last half of the book consists of card "mentors" and instructions for performing a reading using the Celtic Cross. The mentors are each one page the contains a picture of the Rider Waite deck version of the card in question, a few sentences on the possible upright interpretations , and a few sentences on the possible reversed interpretations.
