The book that changed the world of Tarot.

"From the first steps in reading Tarot through metaphysical correspondences and on to professional marketing, this book has it all! Marcus Katz's Tarosophy® is a work of intelligence and depth, featuring tons of Tarot tips and exercises that will help you explore the wisdom of the cards in a manner that is accessible, playful and practical. Highly recommended!" - Mary K. Greer, author of 21 Ways to Read a Tarot Card.

"In precise detail, with clarity but also with wit and a playful and explorative mind, Marcus Katz maps out a course for the serious Tarot reader. Ranging across culture, myth, and history as well as the Tarot tradition itself, this book is a major contribution." - Rachel Pollack, author of 31 books, published all over the world in 14 languages. Her Tarot books include 78 Degrees of Wisdom, often called "the Bible of Tarot readers," and the recently published Tarot Wisdom.

"Marcus Katz has recovered the spiritual dignity of Tarot." - Naomi Ozaniec, author of The Watkins Tarot Handbook and The Aquarian Qabalah.

"Marcus Katz has fixed himself as a bright Star in the firmament of Tarot. His Tarosophy® is everything its subtitle promises; "Tarot to Engage Life, Not Escape it." It's sane, sensible, and profoundly original. His 'Temple of Thoth' (Gated Spread) alone is worth the price of admission." - Lon Milo DuQuette, Author of Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot, and creator of Tarot of Ceremonial Magick.

"Any system of thought such as Tarot, Kabbalah or Astrology that reflects life processes back at the user of that system, thereby enabling him or her to live life more consciously and spiritually ‐ in harmony and accord with life itself ‐ is, of necessity, very complex. The teaching of such is therefore commensurately difficult. Here, in a manner I would love to see employed for the teaching of other disciplines too, Master Katz ‐ for Master he is ‐ has delivered to us a manual for learning Tarot (and much more) by being true to its own strap-line: he engages the reader, not just through clear, practical and reliable information, but through numerous interactive exercises, techniques and rituals that effectively find Tarot being taught to you from the inside out! From 'Tarot True', through 'Tarot Deep', to 'Tarot High', he takes you on an enjoyable and rewarding journey of discovery that births the unique Tarot‐reader who was already inside of you. Genius!" - Lyn Birkbeck, astrological consultant and best‐selling author of Do‐It‐Yourself Astrology, The Instant Astrologer.

Based upon 30 years of studying, reading and teaching tarot, more than 10,000 face-to-face readings and extensive research in the field, Marcus Katz successfully combines academic rigour with invaluable practical experience and breathtaking originality.

From terminology and technique, to reading and spreads, inner work and trees, Tarosophy encapsulates the wisdom of tarot as a living, divine art and science; a dynamic interface between awareness and appearance, and a system to observe, tie and untie the 'secret knots' that bind the world.

With 50 unique exercises, in excess of 50 illustrations, extensive footnotes, and detailed reading lists, there are more new tarot ideas on any given page of Tarosophy than in some entire texts on the subject.
