Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom, a Tarot Journey to Self-Awareness By Rachel Pollack

Rachel Pollack (1945-2023) was the leading light and foremost influence on modern tarot. Her bestselling book, Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom, first published in 1980 and never out of print, is widely described as the "Bible of Tarot". Drawing on mythology and esoteric traditions and delving deeply into the symbolism and ideas of each card, the book offers a modern psychological interpretation of the tarot archetypes rather than a system of esoteric symbolism.
