Using Janet Boyer's BIT (Back in Time) method of working with
the Tarot, readers will gain insight into the presentaand
ultimately their futureaby exploring their past. Gone are arcane
and hard-to-understand explanations of Tarot symbols. Boyer offers
an intuitive approach that allows readers to "feel the truth" of
the cards as they relate to the specific parts of their lives. In a
nutshell, the BIT Method:
a Asks readers to think about a specific incident from their
past
a Break down that memory or event into components
a Connect the elements of any card with the components of that
memory
Boyer presents Back in Time (BIT) snapshots from her colleagues,
some of Tarot's best-known writers and deck artists who relate
their own experiences with the BIT Method that range from comical
and msyterious to sobering. Providing more than 100 exercises and
referencing more than 40 Tarot decks, "The Back in Time Tarot Book"
draws on personal examples, headlines, television, music, and
fairytales, allowing Tarot to be appreciated in a fresh new way.
The BIT Method does not follow that there is only one way to see
Tarot cards now and in the future; rather, it encourages readers in
their own abilities to recognize what is important in the
cards.
