Took out a card for the Forum. This is what came out:

MAJOR ARCANA VII (From The Unicorn Tarot)--THE CHARIOT

Two unicorns appear to be pulling in different directions, representing one's mind
pulling one way, while emotions are pulling the other way.

Both need to to be harnessed together in order for peace and tranquility to reign.
The warrior is holding her flag erect to imply victory. She is determined to forge ahead
with whatever it takes in order to be triumphant. She represents a self-sufficient go-getter
who is highly motivated and doesn't need help to achieve what she wants.

DIVINATORY MEANING: Full steam ahead into a project that is being contemplated.
strength and ability to succeed even though the path ahead may seem a little bumpy at times.
A decision may need to be made that will alter the course of the questioner's life. Difficulties resolved. Victory.

How long have you been reading tarot cards. And is it down to the reader as to what interpretation comes from a particular card.
I mean can 2 different readers see totally opposite meanings.

I ask out of a curious mind

griswald

That sounds more accurate re: sketti's bid for even more power!

All Tarot cards have a name number and a meaning. No matter who does the reading it should be quite similar.

It is the cards answering your question. there are different tarots, zillions of them with different drawings, but the essence is the same, except some like the Aleister Crowley Tarot, which he placed meaning into it.
There are tarots with wordly(Psychological meaning) , and tarots with spiritual meaning, which are a bit like Oracles(talking to your soul). A tarot is to say what is happening NOW, not guess the future, since we make our destiny as we move along by ourselves. It can only talk to you about the energies that are coming, and decisions according to this we must make.

In times of the Inquisition people where quite illiterate, no book on the Tarot was ever written then, or else the man would end up being burned for being a "witch" or something like that by the priests.So the drawings were interpreted. It got popular, when kings and queens, not knowing what it was started using as a game.



The Tarot was used centuries ago, in times of the inquisition when there was no psychology, no Freud.
No one knows who made these decks, it is a mystery.

I have been doing this for 10 years , but there is always something more to learn. Quite interesting!

Thanks for that, Chandrakavi!

My pleasure kumatora!

I took out a card to see how the DIF is doing, this is what I got:

THE TOWER: Card XVI

The tower shows lightning as a cosmic force that breaks down false structures and ideals.
The Tower originates from the same source that created the Hermit's flame.
It is the same power and that the magician uses .
In the window of the tower are doves.
One remains to rebuild the Tower and the other flies out to give comfort to our fallen ideals.
The Tower is the inevitable change caused by the cosmic need to return to our path.
As we look at the Tower we know there is always a new one to build.
The process of change has started. Don't try to resist the inevitable breakdown
of present circumstances.

Bahaha i absolutely love your post, great propaganda!

As much as I find it interesting, it totally mystifies me how a set of cards can predict a future by simply being selected by an individual.

Isn't it a bit like cold reading?

Tarot cards....ohh my...dont get me started ...why not use goats entrails or tea leaves or throw bones down on the ground....I cannot believe that anyone takes this crap seriously.....

Not really as cold reading uses the person being "read" to give away most of the details of the "reading", usually without even realising they are doing it...after the usual misses first.

As far as I know, there is no absolute way to predict the future. Maybe interpreting dreams and clear thoughts is the closest you can come. Why some bits of shredded wood covered in ink and lacquer selected at random would be able to do it seems a bit weird. Though I find the idea of randomising the future of a subscriber to look back on the cards once the coincidence comes to pass quite a neat little trick.

When I've had it done it was all kind of rolled into one thing. I'd have to say some of it was spot on... same with a 'numerologist' too!
Some things that just seem too deep and personal for it to be coincidental, or applicable to large groups of people.
That's why I find it interesting, but I still think it's bollox!

Well, bs or not, but every time I've picked a card or few, they have shown to have some significance... Maybe it's just all in my head. Tarot is like horoscopes, it's really cool, there's something to it, but is it deadly serious? nope. Not for me at least. But it's entertaining and there's something to it... Every time.

The truth is out there you know.

(EDIT: this is my 800th post over here, does number 800 have some numerological significance? )

I took out a card for each forum to see how things stand NOW. Not for the future.
that's the way the energies are at the moment.

No one knows who made the tarot. Not in those times, 16th century, people had not discovered psychology,
so these symbols did help quite a lot, and still do. C.J. Jung, wrote lots of treatises on it, found it significant.

But you are welcome to disagree. I did too, until I learned what it was about, the psychological archetypes.

Hare Krishna!

Please, Guys, it's ALL bullshit...all of it.
I have said on other forums and I will say it on this one...anyone,ANYONE, who feels they can predict the future by ANY means..or who wants to do a reading for me, is welcome to contact me via Skype and do a reading, hot or cold, cards, crystals and any other BS they want to try with..i am always available...though I wont hold my breath.
I guarantee you 100% that you cannot do it...I guarantee it !!!

Hey Chand! Interesting readings. I find the tarot very amusing whether its real or not. It can be very entertaining and all fun.

Hey Mountain! great to find you here sweetheart!
Hope to see you later on MSN.

Yes the tarot can be a lot of fun. The major arcana represents the cycle of physical and spiritual forces
that we encounter on our journey through life, birth, strength, love, religion, death and re-birth.
The minor arcanas generally represent occupations ,social positions status, and problems in life.

I just meant to take out a card for this forum and DIF ,but not to try to convince anybody of anything. What for?

Lots of love to you Mountain,
A big hug,



Chandrakavi
