Star Spider Speaks: The Teachings of the Native American Tarot

This book is a more expanded (and an easier font to read) version of the booklet contained with the Native American Tarot Deck by Magda Weck Gonzalez. Overall I liked the expanded information but found it wasn't adding too much to the booklet provided with the deck. Another "pet peeve" if you will was the information in the book had nice stories and then a 'generalized' meaning for all of the lower Arcana cards, but did no such synopsis of the Higher Arcana. I know that you are supposed to read and interpret the stories and then fit them to your situation but this took a lot of time to do. A simple five card spread will be a good 8 to 10 pages of this book!The book does a good job of describing all the symbols contained on a single card, and provides some nice proverbs and stories too, but this information is contained within a "wall of text" style. I would love to have seen it broken down into sub headings such as: "Card Design" "Standard Deck Equivalents" "General Meaning" etc...Overall I do like this product, I just feel like a little better organization would have made the additional price more worth it.

I love everything about this product it is excellent. I am Native American and very proud of it. So much material and so much to learn. The lettering and the color pages so beautifully designed. The book is made of such good quality and i just have the paperback and i can't imagine if it was their hard copy. I just want to give thanks for the quality and service. I have enjoyed reading and still continue to do so. You can also purchase the cards and they are amazing and large in design you just can't miss loving it all and wanting to read more. The history of the Star-Spider teachings are amazing and their elder's. It makes you want to read and read and so hurry up and purchase your set today, thanks Elizabeth

This book is packed full of wonderful information. Native American history, card information, etc. With or without the cards, this book is an interesting read. It also includes card spreads, meditations, visualizations, Universal Correlations with the Higher Arcana, and Relationships among the Higher Arcana Cards!!! All fascinating information. 206 pages that you won't want to miss if you have any interest in Native American history, beliefs, or the tarot.

I have always loved the Native American Tarot, but never been able to fully understand it. This book gives me greater insight into my favorite tarot deck. There are more in-depth explanations for the meaning of each card, as well as explanations about the cards themselves. It's simply a wonderful handy resource and a great addition to my collection.

I bought this to go along with the Native American tarot deck and it is a beautiful book that goes with a beautiful deck.

I gain new insight into the first tarot deck I ever bought. After over 20 years, I now have a new view of a deck that means a lot to me. It only makes the readings richer and more layered for meaning.

This book is very interesting. I bought it after I had my native american tarot cards read for me. I wanted to know more about the meaning behind the cards that were shown.

Loved how quickly this came, great book with a lot of info.

Excellent book for anyone wanting to do professional taropt readings with the Native American Tarot.
