Animal Totem Tarot

Mind Body & Soul Ezine Card Deck Review: Animal Totem Tarot by Leeza Robertson with illustrations by Eugene Smith. Published by Llewelyn Worldwide.

"Each animal is a teacher, imparting wisdom beyond words. May their lessons guide you on your way."

This is a workbook that connects animals to the tarot and has with space for writing experiences on the animals wisdom detailed in the cards. The book provides information about power animals and animal guides, totems, archetypes, elemental energies and how to perform a reading with these cards. Each major arcana card represents an animal and has a channeled message from each animal, plus information about the meaning of the card and its message when it appears in a spread. Each card carries information about Business & Career, Family & Relationships, Health & Well- Being, Card- of-the-Day and Journal Prompts.



I liked this deck very much, the images and symbols are meaningful. It helps the reader to find wisdom and meaning in the animal world, currently being so rapidly reduced in numbers. I have my own associations and I could work easily and enjoyably with this deck. My only reservations, on a personal level for myself, are that the deck gives other species a reduced dimension, as they are far greater and more complex than their descriptions, and that animals are entirely instinctual unlike humans who have far greater intelligence. I wanted other species to be given their dignity and their place on our planet. These images are inner archetypes that exist in our mind and will be different for us all.
