Editorial Reviews

"This tarot book is a refreshing change in so many ways...Hesselroth's revolutionary method of Intentional Tarot is amazingly potent...The bulk of the book is a strong outline of suggestions in using each card within the four part Intentional spread: My Understanding, My Goal, My Promise, and My Gratitude. Also, the organic approach to the classic Fool’s journey is simply awe inspiring."—Nancy Antenucci, author of Psychic Tarot
