Turned upside down, tarot cards can have an entirely different meaning from their upright interpretations. Sadly, tarot reversals are often misunderstood. Some people think a reversed tarot card means bad news. Some people think the reversed meaning must be the polar opposite of the upright meaning. And some people ignore them completely, just flipping upright any card that has shown up reversed in a spread. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Joan Bunning's approach to reversed cards is based on an appreciation of energies and their cycles. In our world, change is the one constant. A reading shows us forces that are not fixed, but fluid and dynamic. The cards need to reflect this animated spirit if they are to mirror experience faithfully. In \u003ci\u003eUpside Down Tarot\u003c\/i\u003e, Bunning describes how card orientation is the key to enhancing the energetic quality of a reading. You can enliven and deepen your tarot practice by adding this new dimension to it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e To truly reflect reality, a reading must capture life's movement and change. In this book, Bunning describes how tarot reversals can enhance the dynamic quality of your readings by seeing your cards as energies. You'll discover how to translate a stationary set of images into a moving picture of time's flow. It's hoped that \u003ci\u003eUpside Down Tarot\u003c\/i\u003e will give you a new way to view your life experience and a more powerful tool for understanding it through the tarot. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Note: The material in this book is drawn from Joan Bunning's \u003ci\u003eLearning Tarot Reversals\u003c\/i\u003e (Weiser Books, 2003).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Weiser Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/08\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781578638420\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176","brand":"Joan Bunning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44145871749301,"sku":"9781578638420","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_f6e10761-207d-4e0d-bc92-10f7af305539.jpg?v=1715698637","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/upside-down-tarot-how-reversals-add-depth-to-your-reading-9781578638420","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
