For Affairs of the Heart

The Lovers' Tarot

Not all history has been written on the battlefield--there's been plenty of world-shaping action taking place in the boudoir as well! In this sizzling survey of sexuality and sexual mythology from around the globe, you'll find out how the pursuit of carnal pleasures and sensuality has played a pivotal cultural and historic role, from explaining humankind's origins to defining group morality and achieving communion with the divine. Meticulously researched text and hundreds of color photographs and illustrations expose the full spectrum of our sacred sexuality and its impact on civilizations and cultures across the ages. Egyptian fertility rites, Tantric Buddhism and sexual imagery in the Roman Empire are all featured. The sensual legends of such cultures as the Hindus, Greeks and Celts reveal yet another extraordinary link in the chain that binds us together as sensual beings whose highest expressions of ecstasy are grounded in the ultimate questions of existence and renewal.

Reading tea leaves is a traditional divinatory method passed on through generations. The Cup of Destiny reveals the secrets of this ancient method, allowing you to make predictions for yourself and your friends. This kit includes a beautiful, decorated cup and saucer for making readings, and an illustrated book explaining how to interpret the patterns you will find in your cup. The first part of the book describes the ritual of turning the cup counter-clockwise and draining the left-over tea into the saucer. It goes on to explain the meanings of over 200 of the signs and symbols you are likely to see in the leaves when making a reading. The explanations accompanying these allow you to relate them to real events and future possibilities, providing clear insights which can be startlingly accurate: a heart near the rim of the cup means that love is not far away, while a cake may signify a celebration or a party. So, have a cup of tea and see what the leaves have to say about your future!
