Sego & Salt
Tarot Guidebook
I wish you the best as you look through these cards! I hope the illustrations, the guidebook information and the archetypes of the tarot help you get a better sense of the fascinating history and humanity of early Mormonism.
A free downloadable ebook edition is included with the purchase of each Sego & Salt Tarot deck. But if you're like me and prefer the weight and smell of a real book, you're welcome to purchase one here:
The digital download is a password protected pdf. You will find the password in the small booklet inside the tarot deck box. The password is the 5th and 6th word (lowercase, no spaces) found on page 21.
Some tips in case it's not working:
1. It's a large document (256 mb) give it a minute to download.
2. It will most likely go to your files app or downloads.
3. If you're not sure where it went on your phone, search "sego" or "guidebook".
4. When the password window pops up, enter the password in lower case without spaces.
5. Please reach out to me if you have any problems!
