Many feel that interpreting reversals, the upside-down cards in a tarot spread, offers additional depth and insight to readings. But reversals are not easy for those who haven"t mastered this age-old divination practice. Revelations Tarot makes it easy for beginners to use simple reversals too. Each card of this exquisite deck has reversible images that allow for interpretation no matter which way the card is laid. Striking imagery-bearing a sophisticated stained glass style with illuminated colors-enliven all the major and minor arcana of this innovative, Rider-Waite-based deck. Divinatory meanings of the cards and their reversals, along with several spreads, are provided in the accompanying Revelations Tarot Companion.  Publisher Review: One of the primary difficulties in reading Tarot cards is what to do with cards that come up reversed or inverted. Some people simply right the cards and ignore reversals. One of the great contemporary writers on Tarot, Mary K. Greer, has an entire book, The Complete Book of Tarot Reversals, that is exclusively on this subject. The problem is that when you have a card that is upside-down, the image, with all of its symbols, is also upside-down. Some people simply give the opposite meaning of the card. Of course, this requires you to memorize the meaning of the card and then reverse the meaning—you can’t simply look at the symbols. Some people have decidedly different meanings for cards that are reversed from the meaning when they are upright. My initial in-depth Tarot training stated that the meaning of the inverted card was the same as the upright card, just lessened. No matter what your solution, reversed cards are still a problem.  .  .  read more.Â
