Overview

This excellent beginner's guidebook instructs the aspiring fortune teller in the art of Cartomancy - telling fortunes with playing cards.

Those knowledgeable about fortune telling can confirm that ordinary playing cards can more than satisfy the requirements for concise accuracy which of course underpins all good fortune telling. While it is tempting to choose instead Tarot, with its rich and varied imagery, there needn't be the complexity when a simpler, more accessible and less arcane means of fortune telling accomplishes the task of predicting the future excellently.

The chapters of this guide detail the myriad methodologies afforded by the 52 cards of a pack allow for intense and accurate predictions. Different foci are examined, different circumstances isolated and read upon, and different alignments and arrangement of the cards used to benefit those eager to discover their future. The power to predict comes not from the sorts of cards we use, but the will and connection between the fortune teller, and those desirous of an accurate and sound prediction about anything or indeed everything to come in life.

Written by veteran fortune teller of more than two decades experience Sophia Buckland, this book stands proudly alongside a companion volume on the predictive powers of tea leaves.

Author's note: "Cartomancy is certainly no compromise in predicting the future. As you will see in this book, it possesses a long history, dignity and richness quite apart from other, more popularly known means of telling a fortune. As for color and flamboyance, the amount of exotic playing card sets from localities worldwide, embossed or fancy old sets, means that the procurement of a special 'fortune telling' set which suitably stands out isn't a big problem thanks to the existence of myriad storefronts and the Internet."

When you conclude reading Cartomancy - The Art of Fortune Telling with Playing Cards, you will depart enlightened and capable of telling fortunes with simple, ordinary playing cards.

About the Author

Now with decades of presence in the field of fortune telling through the use of both cards and tea leaves, Sophia Buckland spent her formative years growing up in the American Midwest. Noted for her perceptive skills and clear speech at a young age, it wasn’t long before Sophia had discovered a talent in predicting the future of other people.

Capably memorising the methodology behind reading and drawing fortunes, her skills were put to good use during her teenage years. Her fellow students and locals benefitted from the predictive insight she offered, and for years to come these skills would form a useful side-line. Sophia came to favour simple playing cards and tea leaves, often entertaining groups with her vivid and compelling readings, having memorized any and all aspects. Today she compiles data and business reports, but continues to read fortunes as a hobby.

In her spare time, Sophia happily engages in herb and mushroom foraging and hiking, having forged a strong connection with nature over the years.
