The Flower Speaks

The author did an amazing, inspiring job at "translating" the tradition of the Tarot deck into the language of flowers and their healing qualities. Each card in this new deck is illustrated in the book. Each image has deep healing meanings. The descriptions of the cards are relevant to their meanings in a reading, to the imagery of the illustration, and to the healing qualities of the flowers and their essences. What is most impressive to me is the way this isn't just another Tarot deck. This is a truly new symbolism, and it discovers a new dimension, too--based on plants (root, stem, leaf, fruit) structures as metaphors for human life. And there are 5 more totally new cards (conceptually new!) called energy cards. I've used both the book and the cards in readings and the energy cards create a really vital new dimension to readings. I also like the dreams and poetry that go with each card, and the information about flower essences. Anyone interested in working with alternative medicine like flower essences will get a lot out of the wisdom in this book. Anyone interested in Tarot and divination will find that this isn't just a system for telling about what is happening, because each card that shows in a reading really is also a healing flower essence. There is information in the book about how to get the essences that go with the cards. A complete healing system!
