The object of this book is threefold. First, it is an introduction to Tarot cards and their reading, bringing together historical, philosophical, psychological and magical considerations. Second, it is a practical guide to the “open reading” method, based on looking at the card illustrations rather than learning fixed interpretations by heart. Third, it is a handbook for reading the Tarot de Marseille, which is the classical version of the traditional Tarot. It can also provide you with a deeper understanding of other Tarot decks, which are new adaptations of the same original symbols.
Whether you are a novice or an experienced Tarot reader, and whatever deck or reading method you are now using, this book is for you.

Tarot The Open Reading edition by Yoav BenDov Religion Spirituality eBooks
Yoav Ben-Dove calls his technique "Open Reading," and that is just what it is. Before picking this book up, I had no idea how to even start reading spreads. I felt like I had to study all the cards and learn interpretations - it would have taken a lifetime of research to begin - and though I wanted to use the Tarot of Marseilles, I was too afraid of the number cards to try. But after just a couple of chapters, I felt confident enough to try an open reading, and I felt very good about it. I even shuffled my number cards into my deck after the first reading and had no difficulties. He keeps everything open - no predetermined places in the spread, no predetermined generalized meanings for the cards. The Open Reading allows the cards to speak for themselves within the context of each spread, and every time they show up, they may say something a bit different. He gives numerous examples in his book showing how he interprets combinations of cards looking at the entire spread as a single unit. He keeps it general, so there is no sense of "this is the authoritative answer." I feel like he has opened a door for me that I have been searching for over a year.Product details

Tarot The Open Reading edition by Yoav BenDov Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
I was excited to learn how to read Tarot de Marseilles. If like me, this isyou goal, this may be a book to put on the "Later" list.
Yoav Ben Dov has a lot of nice suggestions and observations on effective reading in general. It's also in a nice readable style.
But - and this is important to me - his style of reading is not a traditional method or a historical way of reading Marseilles. It is a method developed by his teacher Jodorowsky. If learning that method, with Ben-Dov's adjustments and improvements is what you're after, this is for you, and that's a great goal. It just wasn't my goal, and I would have liked if that were somehow made more clear in the title or description.
If you'd like to know how to read Marseilles Tarot like everyone reads it, you'll need a different book. I'd suggest Holistic Tarot by B. Wen. There's a nice appendix that shows numerological ideas about what each number from 1 to 10 means, so one can use those if reading Marseilles.
There are also a couple youtube videos showing the Pips as Majors method.
This is one of the best Tarot Books I have ever read. Dr. Ben-Dov writes authoritatively yet humbly; he answers my questions yet leaves me wanting to read more, simply because he writes as someone who is a reader, as someone who loves the Tarot as much as I do...and he's undeniably a darn good writer. We in the English - speaking Tarot de Marseille world have long hungered for a comprehensive how-to book about our preferred deck. Now we have it, not to mention its companion, the lovely CBD Tarot deck. Of course the book may be used with any Marseille deck, and even RWS or Thoth deck lovers could benefit from the Open Reading method.
Now to the specifics he describes the open reading method before getting into his explanations of "the card meanings," since the point of open reading is looking at the overall picture the cards make. Are there common colors, repeated objects, more than one ace/eight, etc? In other words, we look for patterns and impressions before trying to recall memorized "meanings." Next, he outlines suggested meanings for the structural elements within the cards, e.g. number and color. Of course, later in the book, he does give suggested meanings, but they are always built upon the items in the cards themselves, rather than some external esoteric "correspondences." Thus, by the time we see his suggestions, we understand the underpinnings, and we are free to interpret the cards in the moment. This aspect of his reading style reminds me of Enrique Enriquez's brilliant Tarology method.
In sum, I join a long line of Tarot lovers who say things such as "I can't remember getting this excited about a Tarot book in years," because I haven't. Not since JM David's "Reading the Marseille Tarot" and Alejandro Jodorowsky's "The Way of Tarot" have I read a Tarot book with such consuming enthusiasm. Even if I weren't a Tarot de Marseille fan, I could use Dr. Ben-Dov's approach. In other words, this book is one of the true essentials that every TdM lover, or any Tarot lover, should have. It's just that good.
