Psychics and Spirituality Tarot The Tarot is a mantic tool for awakening our intuitive faculties, for putting us in touch with our inner world, in essence our connection with the Universe and all knowledge. Tarot cards are used by most psychics whilst doing psychic readings. It is believed that the use of Tarot cards began more than 6,000 years ago in ancient Egypt. But historians say that the early records date from the fourteenth century. According to Arthur E Waite the auther and creator of the modern Rider Waite deck of tarot cards, there is no historical evidence of Tarot prior to that date. People used early Tarot decks for card games; early records show the Tarot first appearing in I around 1332, when King Alfonse XI of Leon issued a proclamation against their use. The Roman Catholic Church also condemned the Tarot and refereed to the cards as " The Devils Picture Book ". From the fourteenth century onwards, a nomadic tribe from Persia and Egypt called the Rom, or better known as Gypsies spread the practice throughout Europe. With the modern scientific view of the world, psychics and tarot fell into ill repute and the domain of the sea front fortunetellers. The flamboyant magician Eliphas
Levi produced some of the most important writings on the subject.
And believed tarot to be a practical tool through which the spirits could
be contacted and revelations regarding the past, present and future could
be made. The Tarot deck consists of seventy-eight cards and is divided into two groups. The major Arcana consisting of 22 cards represents the Fools journey through a series of Archetypes to the ultimate goal of enlightenment. The forty Minor Arcana include four suits; Earth represented by Pentacles, Fire - Wands, Water - Cups, Air - Swords. These cards represent the daily situations and emotional states of daily life. There are also sixteen Court cards consisting of Pages, Knights, Queens and Kings. These can indicate aspects of ourselves or others or can represent actual people. To use the tarot cards in a
psychic reading requires a certain degree of ritual in shuffling and selecting
the cards and laying them out on the table in the form of a 'Spread'.
Spreads can be traditional formations as in the Celtic cross or Gypsy
spread. The random selecting of the cards that represent answers to the
querants question is the most mind boggling mysterious process. It is
believed that the universe/spirit has guided the reader or psychics
to choose the appropriate cards. Tarot cards are interpreted according
to their position in the spread, and intuitively. However the tarot represents
a language of symbols and Archetypes and can also be read as one would
interpretative any other language. The cross-reference of elements with
numerical values, based on the Pythagorean system of numerology
can also give a strong indication as to the interpretation. Some readers
and psychics also mix the cards so that some are laid up-side- down, which
have a different interpretation to the ones laid right-way-up.
