Einhorn probes the uncanny correspondences between the mysterious tarot and the groundbreaking ideas of Freud, the father and inventor of psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis is the origin of all talk therapy known today. Freud popularized the concept of the the idea that we don’t know why we do what we do and that our motivations are often hidden from us. Numerous tarot and other spiritual books examine the teachings of Carl Jung, but Tarot of the Unconscious uniquely draws connections between tarot and Freud.
