“What is the Soul?”“What is holiness?”“What is the Tarot’s origin?“Rachel Pollack explores these and other questions in what she calls “Wisdom Readings” – working with the Tarot to explore mysteries of our universe and ourselves. Covering topics as lighthearted as a celebration of May Day, and and as deep as the shadow of the Holocaust, Rachel’s writings use the Tarot as a mirror, a magnifying glass, and as a telescope to view the world.Going beyond the traditional interpretation of symbols in the cards, Rachel delves deeply into the philosophical, mystical, elemental magic of the Tarot.
