Teens who want to discover and unlock their psychic abilities will find no better guide than Maria Shaw, who has a knack for making new age subjects accessible to the young adult market.

Maria covers all the basics, from a smattering of history to in-depth descriptions of all major and minor arcana cards. Common concerns such as how to prepare for a reading, how to cut the cards, how to ask questions, and how to choose the best days for readings are discussed in detail. Sixteen different card spreads, including teen love layouts, the guardian angel/spirit guide spread, and the big question spread, give new readers lots of options.

The deck itself is age-appropriate, containing non-threatening images that are appealing to young adult interests.
