The Neuroscience of Tarot: From Imagery to Intuition to Prediction

This book is an exploration of the neuroscience that goes into practicing different divination techniques, but notably the practice of tarot reading. What happens in one’s brain when practicing cartomancy? How does one infer and attribute meaning and significance to symbology? Siddharth Ramakrishnan, PhD, answers these questions and more — to present his hypothesis and research that suggest that users aren’t making up stuff at all, and in effect have notable effects in our neurophysiology. The book also contains dozens of journal exercises and full-color images to understand the science behind intuition and spreading the cards — as a reader or having your cards read to you.
