“This isn’t just another book about tarot or magical objects. It’s an invitation to weave together two profound traditions in a way that makes both more powerful. It’s a practical guide to creating lasting change, yes, but it’s also something rarer: a reminder that magic doesn’t require us to abandon reason but rather to expand upon it. Talismans and Tarot shows us that sometimes the most powerful magic comes from combining traditions in new ways.” —Benebell Wen, author of Holistic Tarot   As our ancestors did before us, we often put our faith in lucky charms and talismans. Maybe you have a protective charm like a guardian angel pendant or an evil eye. Perhaps it is a family heirloom, a crystal, a small figurine, a foreign coin, or another fascinating object that brings you comfort and luck. We turn to these touchstones when we are fearful or in need of comfort. Or when we’re inspired or ambitious and want to believe that anything is possible.   Incorporating talismans with tarot reading offers a powerful and lasting impact. It is a magical combination that helps to amplify intentions and attract positive energy.   Talismans and Tarot offers guidance for hands-on practices that include setting intentions, choosing and consecrating your talisman, as well as when and how to do readings. Learn to confidently work your magic and how to carry the power of a tarot reading with you every day as it supports and guides you toward manifesting your intentions.
