About the author
Janet Boyer is an author of tarot guidebooks focused on practical reading technique. Tarot in Reverse: Making Sense of the Upside Down Cards in a Tarot Spread, published by Redfeather in 2012, addresses interpreting reversed cards, a point she identifies as a common obstacle for readers at every level, and provides at-a-glance reference material for that purpose. The Back in Time Tarot Book: Picture the Past, Experience the Cards, Understand the Present, issued by Hampton Roads Publishing Company in 2008, introduces Boyer's own method of using the cards to examine a querent's past as a way of illuminating the present and future, favoring an intuitive approach over fixed symbolic explanations. Both books are written in an accessible, instructional style aimed at practicing tarot readers, from beginners working through common difficulties to more experienced readers looking to expand their technique.
