The Complete Illustrated Guide to Tarot

This isn't the first tarot book I read when I picked it up in the summer of 2001. I had already read [b:The Book of Thoth 243001 The Book of Thoth A Short Essay on the Tarot of the Egyptians (Equinox III 5) Aleister Crowley http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173059843s/243001.jpg 836251] and a few others. I like how it included images from multiple tarot decks and compared them. I found the basic info on Astrology and the Kabbalah to be informative as well. This is still my go to book for referencing basic Tarot information, such as comparisons of the suits and numbers.
