A Little Book of Tarot Tales

By Diane King

Step into the world of tarot through the doorway of story. Be greeted by elementals, celestials, wise women, shadow beings, and much more as you journey through a forest of metaphor and symbol. There are many guides to meet: the Ancient One, the Wise Woman, the Shaman, the Devil.

Experience the Page of Cups’ visceral response to the Knight of Swords as he is drawn towards his elemental lover.

Feel the pining for the Angel Boy, the beautiful untouchable who resides in the celestial realms even as he appears in earthly form.

Follow the entwined lovers through their communing in the scorched desert, to their meeting with the Shaman and their subsequent transformation.

Relish in the dirt and weeds of the wild child and the savage mother in the opportune moment the Ten of Swords offers us to slay.

A King of Cups blesses the connection between two water spirits and calls on Magician to make an offering to the true loves. The union culminates in eternal Two of Cups energy.

Follow Toadstool’s cycle to a happy-ever-after as she harnesses the energy of the Five of Wands, battles with fire, restores with Pentacles, and evolves with Cups.

Stories of earth magic, elements, love, connection, and guidance await in these Tarot Tales.

Open the book and walk the magical footsteps of the Fool.
