Word is reaching me that my second book co-written with Catherine Chapman is at the publishers and fingers crossed, it will be available at the end of next week. Beyond the Celtic Cross explores powerful techniques for analysing a tarot reading at very deep levels. It all began when Catherine emailed me about problems she was having with a reading about herself.

When I looked at the cards it was easy to see why she was struggling. Rather than stay with the Celtic Cross format, I decided to apply the techniques I have been using and show Catherine how she can do it herself, rather than me simply giving a reading. And so a half hour tarot reading became a six month project that eventually took even longer when my publisher took an interest.

Since Catherine knew the techniques (she had been reading supertarot for sometime), I realised that it was not about teaching, but mentoring, bringing out the skills that were already there. Already one very tangible outcome of the book is Catherine’s blog, quite simply the best tarot blog so far.
