The True Nature of Tarot is just that, a personal account by the author with her own interpretations. I do feel Tarot is misunderstood and greatly misrepresented as ‘satanic’, often by those with ‘tunnel-vision’ feelings. I know I have received a few looks from strangers when I have my cards out. (I’m a big fan of The Halloween Tarot by Kipling West.). I did like how Diane compared the use of Tarot with that of a computer programmer as both can be used for good or bad. Most often in computer programming, the work is for the better and not considered a bad thing. (After all, how many of us rely on technology in our life?)
Diane does offer a few things that I have not encountered in previous tarot books, such as the deck overview, a few good grounding techniques and her discussion on the energy field. However, the interpretations or card meanings lack any uniqueness from the summary insert or other books I have personally encountered. Granted what does make each card or reading unique is the person reading, their own interpretations as well as their own beliefs. I also feel the claim on her book “Your path to personal empowerment’ is misleading as this book is more geared to providing tarot spreads for others, not a personal reading for the self. I was disappointed as I know of many, like myself; enjoy utilizing tarot for our own personal daily insight. As someone that understands personal boundaries and ethics, it is good that it is brought up, but I personally feel that it also comes down to common sense, courtesy and respect that a person does not just blurt things out or share information with another person.
For the novice that would like to attempt tarot readings for friends and family, this would be a good start. For a one hundred and seventy-eight page book, only forty-four of those pages offer the information the author wishes to impart on the reader.
However, I do not see anything that would make this book stand out from the others I have encountered and purchased.
