'''Mage the Awakening Tarot:  Pg 2 says I can do a book review. Thanks White Wolf!'''

I purchased this in a Mage/World of Darkness bundle for roughly $25 on DriveThruRPG.com. The pdf copy is free as of now, not to mention their 40% off sale for dungeon masters going on for ten days or so. The book does a nice job of explaining the background purpose, history, and functional usage of the tarot. They go through all the different cards like major arcana, wands, swords, cups, and pentacles. They include a new merit called Cartomancy, which means using the tarot for divination. Finally, they have suggestions on how to incorporate the tarot into every session you play rather easily. I like what they suggested and will start to use tarot and animal totem cards to help move things along.

Overall it was worth the read and the art work alone is worth it, even if you don't like symbolism. It's only seventy four pages, so go check it out on DriveThruRPG.com. A+ White Wolf.
