Almost a set of short stories, this novel breaks into discrete episodes, centered on identity, love, and death. Jaqe has no identity until she meets Laurie, introduced and named by Mother Night; in that moment, she knows herself, and that she loves Laurie. But once Mother Night has become part of their lives, Laurie and Jaqe and their daughter Kate cannot live as other people do. Knowing Death, inevitably each of them seeks to use the knowledge, to bargain with Death, and to change the terms in the balance of life and death in the world. Pollack''s characters, major and supporting, living, dead, and divine, are memorably human. As she transplants myths and folklore into a modern setting, she gives new life to old tales and a deeper meaning to a seemingly simple world.Winner of the World Fantasy Award for best novel, 1997

"What is the Soul?""What is holiness?""What is the Tarot's origin?"Rachel Pollack explores these and other questions in what she calls "Wisdom Readings" - working with the Tarot to explore mysteries of our universe and ourselves.

Trans Central Station reflects on a trans life lived before the language to name it. In this luminous essay, award-winning science fiction and fantasy author and tarotist Rachel Pollack moves between personal memory, history, science fiction and myth to consider how words can both restrict and liberate.From Schrödinger’s cat and science-fiction portals to magic, early trans activism and comics, Trans Central Station breaks the world open to ‘both completely new and unknowably ancient’ possibilities of desire, joy and revelation. Situating trans existence within deep time, Pollack connects modern experience to shamanism and rites of transformation, insisting that trans people have always existed – and have often been understood as sacred figures.In this meditation on freedom – from rigid social structures, from fear and shame, and from history itself – to be trans is proof of ancient and ongoing cosmic power.

To write about these remarkable cards, Rachel Pollack traveled to Germany and spent weeks living with Hermann Haindl and his wife, Erica. Together, they went over every card, its symbolism, its inner levels, its esoteric history. The result is a book countless admirers of the Haindl Tarot have described as "indispensable" to a full knowledge and use of the deck. In this book Rachel describes each card of the Major Arcana in great detail. She explores the symbols and meanings for each card, as well as its artistic structure and how it fits into the wider story. She comprehensively explains how to do Tarot readings, what we can learn from them, and how to interpret the cards. Rachel gives several layouts, or "spreads," including one developed specifically for the special beauty and wisdom of the Haindl Tarot. Several sample readings demonstrate how a reading can reveal truths and guide us on our spiritual path.

Rachel Pollack travelled to Germany and spent weeks living with Hermann Haindl and his wife, Erica. Together, they went over every card, its symbolism, its inner levels and its esoteric history. In this book Rachel describes each card of the Minor Arcana in great detail. She lists each symbol and describes the card's spiritual meaning as well as the way these meanings appear in readings. The book for The Minor Arcana examines the four suits of the "Minor Arcana" that reflect the wisdom of the entire world, for Hermann Haindl has based each suit on the spiritual and artistic traditions of cultures from around the planet. Swords are Egyptian, Wands are Indian, Cups are European, and Stones (Pentacles in older decks) are Native American. The divinatory meanings for each card clearly indicate how they work when they appear in actual readings that we do with the cards.

“Rachel Pollack was one of Tarot’s greatest teachers, and this book shows why.” —Mary K. Greer, author of Essence of TarotA Tarot reading lies open before us; all its images are placed on the table. Yet at the same time, they form a labyrinth, not simply a puzzle to be decoded but also a complex pathway deep into ourselves. In Tarot: The Open Labyrinth, renowned expert Rachel Pollack presents interpretations and commentaries on a collection of readings in this foundational book on divination.The approach is both comprehensive and specific, going steadily deeper into the person’s concerns in a context of light and dark, the Magician and the High Priestess. Through a recognition of this context, the subject and the reader open up their lives. In her classic Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom, Rachel Pollack described how we can form meditation patterns—Tarot mandalas—to help us go beyond the reading itself. In this book, she gives examples of these mandalas and describes how people involved use them and their experiences.A previously lost classic from Tarot master Rachel Pollack, Tarot: The Open Labyrinth is for readers who wish to take their reading to the next level.

Silver Winner, Gift & Specialty Card Decks, Nautilus Book AwardsEmbark on a Sacred Journey of Self-Discovery, with Bestselling Author and Tarot Master Rachel Pollack and the Shining Tribe of Diviners as Your GuidesFrom Rachel Pollack, the renowned author of Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom, widely referred to as the “Tarot bible,” this deck and guidebook invite readers to join the “shining tribe” of diviners and take a timeless sacred journey of self-discovery.“All of us who work with Tarot form a kind of tribe, one whose roots go back many thousands of years before the actual appearance of Tarot cards. This is the tribe of diviners, those special magicians, shamans, psychics, and visionaries who use cards, or sticks, or trees, or stones, or shells to communicate with the Gods.” —Rachel PollackHuman beings have practiced the art of divination for millennia. In some cultures, diviners studied patterns in nature—the flight of birds, the forms of clouds, or the arrangement of the stars in the night sky. In others, they created elaborate divinatory systems such as the I Ching and the Tarot. Drawing from the legacy of 50,000 years of human encounters with the Divine, Tarot scholar Rachel Pollack has created The Shining Tribe Tarot.The Shining Tribe Tarot cards are steeped in symbolism drawn from culturally diverse systems including Neolithic rock art, Native American and African shamanism, Aboriginal art, the Kabbalah, Jungian psychology, and the traditional Tarot. The accompanying book includes detailed descriptions of the origin and history of the symbols depicted on each card of this unique deck, as well as explanations of their meanings in divinatory spreads. The minor arcana is focused in nature, with the suits represented by stones, rivers, trees, and birds.You will learn how to read the cards for a variety of purposes, including divination, advice, and guidance along your own personal sacred journey. Lessons are also shared to gain insights into the nightly messages from your subconscious mind through dream readings and how to activate a card to bring its qualities into your everyday life.Rachel Pollack invites you to join the shining tribe of diviners and visionaries. As you continue along the sacred journey of self-discovery, let The Shining Tribe Tarot cards shine a path for you.The Shining Tribe Tarot was previously published. This new Weiser Books edition includes color corrections to the card art as directed by Rachel Pollack and five new cards not available in the previous edition (including one addition to the major arcana and one extra card in each of the minor arcana suits). The accompanying book has been revised and expanded and, for the first time, is printed in full color.
