Divination with playing cards is called Cartomacy, you can get books on it %26amp; there are sites out there also.





There is no quick easy way to learn tarot, it is a complex subject.

Reply:I've been to a place the prints out these cards. This manufacturer also makes boxes for cereals with the same cardboard and inks. Still getting mixed vibes from my Capt. Crunch.





Did you here about the guy that was playing poker with Tarot cards? He drew a full house and 3 people died.
Reply:Many professional cartomancers use a regular deck of playing cards for divination. Regular decks have been used for this purpose since their original adaptation from the tarot type decks of before. Usually there are more cards used per spread than regular tarot cards.

















What follows is a (very) general guide to interpreting regular playing cards. You may still use reverse interpretation on regular playing cards if you mark the deck on the "top".

10:A good card: means good luck, can counteract bad cards around it.








9:Harmony. Often called the Wish Card. If surrounded by bad cards, these can represent obstacles that need to be dealt with in order to get the fulfillment of the wish.








8:An event, a celebration, a party/bash..etc. Somesort of ceremony that is already in the works..or is being planned.








7:A card of disappointent. Usually indicates a partner or other person failing to keep their promises. If this card comes up when dealing with some sort of plan, expect that the other person will back out.








6:Warning card. Someone may try to take advantage of the querent. Also..the querent is being too generous to somebody and not getting anything in return. They are being used.

Reply:no use tarot cards and just follow the instructions (put crystals around them though) its good for em XD
Reply:I read from both the tarot and regular playing cards. Hearts are cups; diamonds are wands; clubs are pentacles and spades are swords. Of course, there are no major arcana, but readings still work.
