Secret Teachings of the Tarot - An Initiate's Remembrance oleh Uma Simon

This is the story of a young woman who meets with a famed teacher of the Tarot, not knowing that she will become an Initiate of this woman who is known as Madame Petrova. In the 24 sessions within the book, Mme Petrova transmits her wisdom and history of the Tarot through the 40 years use she has read for others. This book is unlike conventional books of the tarot in that it not only teaches the meanings of the cards of the tarot, but imparts the underlying profound essence that is shared between an enlightened teacher and her student. Through the simple cadence of the author's words, one is led into a feeling of not only initiation, but deep understanding of the spirituality that forms the basis for this teaching.
