Make Your Life A Work of Art and Your Art a Work of Life

Monte Farber was born in Brooklyn, NY. He studied comparative religion and became interested in astrology in 1974 when he met his future wife and artistic collaborator, Amy Zerner. "Amy was studying astrology and I was studying Amy, so I learned astrology! It became our language of love." Farber's desire to make astrology understood and accessible to a broad audience led him to devise "Karma Cards: A Guide to Your Future through Astrology," having sold over 300,000 copies in 16 languages. 

 

Farber and Zerner went on to create books, book/card sets, and unique kits that also made other esoteric systems accessible, such as the tarot, alchemy, The Goddess, talking boards, meditation, shamanism, psychic development, and relationships. Farber is now the world's foremost creator of interactive personal guidance systems. Over two million copies of his 45 books, divination systems, and meditation kits have been published around the world in 16 languages by St. Martin's Press, Sterling, Simon & Schuster, Penguin Books, Chronicle Books, HarperCollins, Quarto, Weiser Books, and other publishers.. His best selling titles include Chakra Meditation Kit, Karma Cards, The Enchanted Tarot, The Psychic Circle, Quantum Affirmations, Little Reminders: Law of Attraction, The Enchanted Birthday Book, Tarot Secrets, Sun Sign Secrets ,and Instant Tarot.

He has applied his psychic gifts and creative method to his career as a successful book packager, not only conceptualizing, writing and designing his many divination projects, but acting as his own agent, lawyer, production supervisor, manufacturer, and secretary. He uses the same creative approach in all his various roles as he does when creating art and making his business work so well under the pressures of the “real” world.

Before his career as an astrologer, author, and spiritual businessman, Monte worked as a Location Manager in the film business developing his first interactive creations and trying them out on actors such as Tom Hanks, Michael J. Fox, Shelly Long, and Lord Richard Attenborough.

An essential characteristic of Monte’s creative approach to living is his childlike sense of wonder, playful fun, and adventure. He is uniquely qualified to teach the creative approach not only to those interested in the creative arts, but to all who want to access and use their innate creativity to enjoy their life more and do their job better.

 

 To Monte, spirituality and creativity are, essentially the same thing. Understanding either of them requires the knowledge that unseen forces and ideas both within us and without us create, to a large extent, our experience of reality.
