After writing "Tarot and the Medici Solitaire. A Self-Study Guide to Stalking" in July 2021, it became clear that a library of images for each card of the Minor Arcana was urgently needed.

      What's more, due to the laws of Stalking and its principles of practical application, it was vital to supplement each card with a broad range of examples, illustrating how it might manifest itself in reality.

Since there are 64 cards in a fully elaborated deck1, the total number of "tuning fork" examples approaches a thousand.

Meanwhile, the technical capabilities of publishing house engines dictate their own requirements and limitations2.

Therefore, it was decided to limit the set of images for each card to 8.

Publishers' copyright compliance requirements require that authors take images only from resources with a free 3CC0-type license4.

Therefore, to illustrate correspondence, the author must take photos and images from resources that provide such a license.

For example, Pixabay5. For which the author is sincerely grateful to this and similar resources and their creators.

Such resources operate on a goodwill basis and photos from them don't always meet the necessary requirements for the collection.

Therefore, the Minor Arcana correspondence gallery in this book is neither perfect nor complete.

Rather, it should be regarded as a kind of outline, offering an overview of the subject.

Nevertheless, the author hopes that this gallery of examples will be useful to Tarot practitioners.

Including those practicing Medici Solitaire Stalking6.

Once again, as before, the author's Muse serves as a kind of co-author of this book. I don't know what She looks like in the flesh, but common decency demands that I acknowledge Her input. Without Her invisible inspiration, participation, suggestions, and, at times, criticism, both this and the author's earlier books would simply never have become a reality.

So, consider this a coin in Her Karma bank: my deepest gratitude and sincere thanks for Her invaluable contribution.

For those new to the world of the Tarot, I would suggest first getting acquainted with the following books:

1) 

Boris Monosov – "The Magical Russian Tarot"

2) 

Avessalom Podvodny – "Kabbalah of Numbers"

.

Please, note:

Due to the specifics of Medici Solitaire Stalking, this book looks at and presents examples mainly of "upright" and "neutral" card readings.

Occasionally, "reversed" card interpretations are also considered, if necessary.
