“Whether you’re just beginning with tarot or have been practicing 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

The ancient art of fragrance has long been a component of magical and spiritual practice and 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. Greer, among the world’s foremost authorities on the topic, demonstrates how essential oils can enrich the tarot experience, as well as empower tarot readers.

Learn how to create a more magical life through the union of tarot and aromatherapy. No previous experience with essential oils is needed, as Greer offers a 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 and as a reference guide for tarot lovers. Instructions for crafting tarot oils are included, as well as detailed instructions for using them to maximize the tarot experience.

Originally published as The Essence of Magic, this new edition of the 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.

“Mary K. Greer is the undisputed Queen of Tarot; much of what I learned for my own practice came from her books. This book takes the tarot to the next level, and I for one can’t wait to try out many of the treasures that lie inside.”
—Deborah Blake, author of Everyday Witch Tarot and Everyday Witchcraft
