Sometimes it can feel like there is a very big gap between asking a question and seeing something happen. Divination (asking the question) can feel like all we can do about a situation, but for author Briana Saussy, it's just the first step. In Making Tarot Magic: Rituals and Remedies to Transform Readings into Action, Saussy guides the reader through a variety of magical practices to transform the reading into a working.
Beginning with the basics of working with the tarot and magic, subsequent sections focus on a single magical condition: love, personal abundance, career/prosperity, healing, legal issues, fertility, baneful work, and safeguarding. Along the way, readers will have the chance to work with sacred vessels, candles and oil lamps, incense, sachets, spiritual baths, herbs and roots, magical words, prayers and petitions, sacred waters, textile magic, and spirits.
Saussy is the real deal: practical and effective. Making Tarot Magic is excellent and highly recommended.
