Unlock the transformative power of tarot with this unique investigation into the psychology of its secrets, symbols and stories.
Symbols have been used in modern psychology for generations, from the interpretation of fairy tales to inkblot tests. Although tarot is often thought of as a spiritual tool for divination and fortune-telling, it too contains a set of symbols that can help us better understand our selves and align with our values. In this book, Jessica Dore reveals years of secrets and insights about how to work with tarot to activate your potential.
You'll discover:
· the importance of choosing the right deck and how to find it
· how the mythic imagery of tarot supports evidence-based therapeutic concepts such as mindfulness, acceptance and compassion
· the skill of interpreting specific images and symbols
· how to build a meaningful relationship with the cards
Jessica's reflections on each of the 78 cards breathe new language into ancient wisdoms about what it means to be human. Whether you're new to tarot or have worked with the cards for years, this book will provide a path towards reclaiming your imagination and true sense of self.

Jessica Dore has replicated (in wonderfully literary book form) the most expansive, juicy, intuitive and transformative tarot session.... In Tarot for Change, Dore has given us the gift of feeling more welcome to the tarot, more welcome on our healing journey, and more welcome in our own lives.
I've long awaited a book like Tarot for Change, a template for a tarot novice or observer. Jessica Dore brings you into the allegory, the storytelling, into the abstract as well the imaginal, while giving a condensed explanation of what each card has the potential to mean.... This book is an incredibly important handbook for those invested in the ritual of tarot and healing. Particularly those who are hungry for change and want to break through patterns to see themselves a little more clearly, with Dore's help. I sincerely love this book.
In over forty years of studying esoteric schools and Western psychology, I have not come across a more lucid and useful integration of effective psychotherapeutic wisdom and the archetypal power of the inner traditions of global culture than Jessica Dore's flat-out awesome book. I would recommend this to all my clients.
Tarot for Change is a choose-your-own-adventure self-help book that eggs us on like a mischievous and wise best friend. Dore wants us liberated. To get us there, she fans an empathic resourcefulness, utilizing ancient myths and modern physics alike. Dore's deep respect for human vulnerability and the power of tarot to support us perfumes every page.... Dore is a gentle and generous shepherd.
