Praise for the #1 Amazon Bestseller The Ultimate Guide to Tarot Card Meanings and Everyday Tarot:
“The Ultimate Guide to Tarot Card Meanings is so comprehensive, it’s the only reference book you’ll need in your collection! Not only do I love it as a professional Tarot reader, but my shop customers are so excited about it that it’s FLYING off the shelves. This is the book the Tarot community has been waiting for.” – Kelley Knight, Modern Mystic Tarot
"Few tarot books on the market right now rival The Ultimate Guide in the amount of text provided for card interpretation. Also, Esselmont’s style of writing is accessible, sensible, and plainspoken. …[It] is an encouraging affirmation to all, in the form of a tarot guidebook. It proposes that you possess all the answers you need to navigate your life, overcome obstacles, and achieve personal dreams, and a pack of tarot cards is your roadmap. You don’t need decades of dedicated occult study, absorption of umpteen esoteric texts, or pre-programmed psychic abilities to access that roadmap. All you need is a decoder of that roadmap, and for many, Biddy Tarot’s The Ultimate Guide is just that decoder.” – Benebell Wen
"This is one of the best comprehensive Tarot books I have read. I highly recommend it to new readers as well as experienced readers who are looking for a good, comprehensive Tarot reference book." – Sheri Harshberger, American Tarot Association
“I am in complete awe of your book. It is truly The Ultimate Guide To Life – not only for Tarot card meanings but also for delving into our lives, finding paths to more enriching lives, seeking answers, and so much more.” – Cheryl Janzen
"The [Ultimate Guide] is a complete lesson in reading, explaining, and simplifying the 78 cards of the Tarot. It is probably the best learning tool and reference book on the Tarot I have ever seen." – Robert Neal
“I have been studying the Tarot since 1988, so I am not a newbie. However, Brigit's [Everyday Tarot] book is a treasure! Brigit is so generous in sharing many fun, powerful, and practical tips for the reader to enhance his/her use of the Tarot to create greater flow, inspiration, and joy in life. In my humble opinion, beginners and seasoned Tarot readers will gain valuable nuggets of wisdom for how to improve their work/play with the Tarot from this book. It's a new permanent addition to my Tarot library.” – Laura R.
“Everyday Tarot is intelligently written in Brigit’s casual conversational style. It’s easy to follow, not too ‘woo woo,’ and Brigit’s enthusiasm makes the book feel alive :) So far, I’m only halfway through the book and I’m already feeling a shift. Using the suggestions and techniques in the book, I’m slowly starting to let go of the analytical mind and I can feel my intuition and imagination starting to wake up… Even if you’ve read dozens of books about Tarot, give this one a try. It's different. It's fun. And you might discover parts of yourself that you didn’t know were there.” – Kim R.
“[Everyday Tarot] is a gem. I love her personal anecdotes, which shed light on the lessons. Some of the tarot spreads, such as the Soul Purpose and the Soul Alignment Check-in, are downright astonishing when used in conjunction with her teachings. Once I got the basic gist of her method, it opened up a whole new and much more accurate world of Tarot for me.” – Kindle Customer
“[Everyday Tarot] is actually more than I could ever explain. I ordered this book to learn more about how to read Tarot using intuition, but I got more than I bargained for. It has various spreads and gives you questions to ask about whatever topic you want answers for. It also gives you suggestions on how to rephrase your question so you can get a better answer… I know for a fact that I will get much value out of it.” – Jose
“Brigit is an amazing, patient, kind, and intuitive writer. She doesn't make you feel stupid or inept, and she doesn't shove history and memorization demands down your throat… I highly recommend [Everyday Tarot] to enhance anyone's Tarot collection. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t yet started a collection! Just buy the book!” – Trish C.
