This highly innovative work presents a piercing interpretation of the tarot in terms of Jungian psychology. Through analogies to the humanities, mythology, and the graphic arts, the significance of the cards is related to personal growth and what Jung termed "individuation." The Major Arcana becomes a map of life, and the hero's journey becomes something that each individual can relate to one's personal life.
"Sallie Nichols' superb classic retitled Tarot and the Archetypal Journey, with a new and fascinating introduction by Mary Greer, is an absolute must for all enthusiasts of tarot and Jung. It is full of rich, imaginative descriptions of Jungian archetypes and reveals their unique relationship to the tarot images. This book is a true journey of wisdom and wonder and I am delighted a new generation
