Books like The tarot by Robert Michael Place


In "The Tarot," Robert M. Place challenges common myths that link the deck to ancient Egypt, instead showing its development during the Middle Ages and Renaissance in Europe. Drawing on Hermetic, alchemical, and Neoplatonic influences, he offers a historically grounded, compelling portrait of the cards’ true origins while also acknowledging their mystical dimensions. Place combines reliable historiography with a hands‑on approach, presenting practical techniques—including a simple three‑card spread—for both seasoned practitioners and newcomers to read and interpret the Tarot.
