Unlocking the Tarot

Create Your Own Keys

De: Lisa Papez

Narrado por: Coleen Marlo

Turn the key to any card's secrets with one word

Behind every tarot card lies a single expansive keyword you can use to unlock profound insights. This beginner-friendly book teaches you how to turn that one keyword into a full personalized interpretation you'll remember without consulting a book. Sharing detailed explanations of the keywords, card combinations, and tarot spreads, Lisa Papez helps you build associations for each card that can be traced back to just one word.

Unlocking the Tarot provides a primary keyword per card as well as similar examples to help determine which word is best for you. This book makes it easy to expand your keyword into a meaningful sentence, and then into a full story for that card. By building your own set of keywords, every tarot deck will feel like it was made for you.

Making Tarot your own for beginners and seasoned readers alike

Lisa Papez’ book is absolutely wonderful. She empowers readers of all levels to truly read Tarot—not just by memorizing meanings, but by making the cards their own. Instead of simply listing keywords or rigid interpretations, Lisa teaches you how to build your own connections. She shows you how to recognize the stories within each card, reminding you that everything depicted in the Tarot has already been witnessed somewhere in the real world around you. Lisa beautifully maps it all out, helping you connect the dots and encouraging you to trust your personal understanding. This book is a powerful guide to making Tarot a living, breathing, and deeply personal experience. Loved the approach! (I read Tarot for 13 years)

The Best Way to Learn About Tarot!

When I first grew interested in Tarot, I came across Lisa Papez's Youtube channel, where she reviews new tarot decks, discusses books on tarot, and even explains each card in detail. It was through her that I began to grasp the meaning behind tarot as well as ways that I could apply my own interpretations.

She is an incredible teacher and this book turned out to be a fantastic distillation of knowledge on the Tarot, laid out in the most direct and helpful way possible. She demystifies several areas that are often quite confusing to those new to tarot, such as how to grasp the court cards and identifying the differences between cards that appear similar at a glance (such as the Judgement and Justice cards). She also encourages a keyword system to help those new to tarot to develop their own ways to remember the meanings behind each card. The exercises and spreads included in this book are also incredibly helpful for those who wish to actively engage in studying the tarot. Everything is quite direct and easy to wrap one's head around.

The audiobook version narrated by Coleen Marlo is stellar -- her voice is clear and easy to understand. Though, I would recommend the print version as well as this is a fantastic reference book to return to often for both new and accustomed tarot readers.

Great

Great exercise for newbies and experienced readers. Although I am an experienced reader I still enjoyed trying some new key words and playing along.

Is this AI?

I love the author and I think the book is valuable but there’s something off about the recording. The sound goes on and out and the voice almost sounds like one of those AI voices.
