Tarot Reading

ORIGIN OF TAROT

The origin of tarot reading can be traced to hoary past. Some people are of the opinion that the system was in vogue even 2,500 years ago. Tarot reading was and is still considered as a great tool in divination.

Tarot reading involves the use of cards drawn from a shuffled deck. A deck  consists of 78 cards out of which 22 cards are called major arcana or trumps. Some of the trumps are the Lovers, the Fool, the Pope and the World. Tarot readers believe that the Trumps are the “blue print for of the human race in the future.”

The remaining 56 cards are called minor arcana. Cards in Minor arcana  are divided into four suits with each suit consisting of 14 cards.

The deck is either shuffled by the subject or a third party reader. The next step is to lay out the cards in certain patterns. These patterns are called spreads. Each card in the spread possesses some psychic significance.

They are then read out or interpreted by the psychic reader of the tarot cards. The readings or interpretations may revolve around the thoughts or desires of the client. The tarot reader may also try to divine the future, present or the past of the client.

Generally each card of the spread is assigned a number and the cards are turned over in that sequence. Each card is ‘read out’ before moving on to the next.

Sometimes a tarot reader may select a card randomly, or, he may select the first card in a spread, if he considers it as representing the query of the client. The card is called significator.

Important tarot spreads include:

• Celtic Cross,
• Horse shoe,
• three-card spread,
• astrological spread,
• one card spread and so on.

The most commonly used spread is Celtic Cross. This spread uses ten cards out of which five cards are arranged in cross and four are placed vertically besides the cross. The central card of the cross is considered the significator.

In case of Horse Shoe spread, there are seven cards which are arranged in semi circle or placed in V-shape. The cards placed from the left side and moving to the right are known to indicate the influence of the past and the present times. It also represents the obstacles and expectations including hopes and fears of the client. These cards also reveal what course of action would suit the client best and what its outcome would be.

The cards in the three-card spread are used to divine the past, present and the future of the questioner. While the first card indicates the past, the second represents the present and third card is used to predict the future.

The astrological spread consists of twelve cards which are spread to form a circle. Each of these twelve cards represents a sign of the zodiac. A thirteenth card, which is placed in the middle, is the signigicator.

Sometimes, a tarot card reader may just pull out one card. This may be called a single card spread.

Another card spread is called Tetractys. It consists of ten cards which are placed in four rows forming a pyramid. Each row represents the four elements of nature, the earth, fire, air and water. These elements have a great significance in witchcraft as well.

A tarot reader may also decide his own spread depending upon his own personal experience and preference.
Tarot cards have, of late, become a popular tool for divination of a person’s nature and his future. They are used to gain insight into the current, past and the future life of the client seeker. The cards ultimately represent the spiritual forces that control the human life and its circumstances.

The famous psychologist Carl Jung was the first to attach significance to the divinatory value of the cards by using the symbols printed on them.
