Essence of Tarot

Empower Your Tarot Readings with the Use of Sacred Fragrances.

The ancient art of perfumery and fragrance has long been a component of magical and spiritual rituals.

In Essence of Tarot, tarot master Mary K. Greer demonstrates how this primordial art can be used to enhance modern tarot practices, whether for divination, meditation, or affirmations. Learn how to create a more magical life through the union of tarot and aromatherapy. Greer, among the world's foremost authorities on the topic, demonstrates how essential oils can enrich the tarot experience and empower tarot readers.

No previous experience with essential oils is needed, as Greer offers a brief crash course, along with details about the historical role of scent and perfumery in magical and divinatory rituals. Greer provides oils and scents to correspond with each of the seventy-eight cards of the tarot. This book may be used in daily rituals but also as a reference guide for tarot lovers.

Instructions for crafting tarot oils are included, as well as detailed instructions for using them to maximise the tarot experience. This new edition of a beloved classic includes a new foreword by Judika Illes and retains the botanical illustrations by Ed Buryn, creator of the William Blake Tarot, photographer, and vagabonding pioneer.

This book was originally published as The Essence of Magic.

'Whether you're just beginning with tarot or have been practising for years, this book serves as an essential guide for those wanting to strengthen their bond with the cards, guided by one of tarot's most trusted and knowledgeable experts.' — Mat Auryn, author of Psychic Witch and The Psychic Art of Tarot
