How do you read future with tarot cards?

I'm asking this for a research purpose, I don't personally believe in divination but I'm still curious to see how one reads tarot.





By the way, any sayings/quotes on tarot?

How do you read future with tarot cards?
I wouldn't recommend getting into tarot cards. There is no effective, reliable way of seeing very far into the future as it is so fluid. Also, it is not really yourself that would be using them, but another entity speaking through them. This makes one easily susceptible to the will of whatever entity this might be (and any beings which try to interfere with free will are not usually very benign).
Reply:Tarot, like any sort of divination (including weather forecasting) is basically looking at the impact and interaction of larger forces at a specific area.





In meteorology, it is understanding the forces of clouds, wind, precipitation, pressure, temperature, etc, in a certain area (usually locally and/or nationally) and, once grasped how they have acted in the past, using that information to predict how they might act in the future.





In Tarot, the forces are just as 'evident' but in a more ephemeric and individualistic form: love, death, money/fortune, happiness, sadness, adversity, comfort, achievment, failure, etc, and thus can be more prone to 'error' due to the fact that individual activity can interfere with a given reading.





Let's say, for instance, that you are given a reading and the 'Lovers' card is shown in the future, right-side-up. While dew point pressure usually means one thing, what 'lovers' means to each individual can be quite different: you can be physical lovers with another, spiritual lovers, lovers of good books, lovers of similar political ideas, lovers of a cause, etc etc etc, so that a careful examination and explanation must be given to the 'querant' so that any possible misunderstandings are cleared up.





Why Tarot, or other methods of divination, get a bad rap can be oftentimes be attributed to it being mostly done by amateurs and those haphazzardly working solely to fill some void of importance in their own life. Imagine joe-schmoe walking in off the street and trying to give a weather report, and then everyone saying 'wow, meteorology sucks at predicting/understanding the weather, look at how off that guy was.' Haphazzard amateurs give haphazzard amateur efforts.





Tarot works, basically, just like any other method of prediction, only instead of attempting to use limited physical data, it attempts to latch onto the emotional, spiritual, and psychological data of the querant (and the larger forces to which they are a part of) to give an overview of what is happening in their life. The cards, therefore, represent themes or ideas that are central to most human beings, and thus must have an influence upon their life. Most readings have the querant represented in the center, with the conscious above them, the unconscious below them, the future in front (to the right or left, depending upon the reader) the past behind (the opposite side) and sometimes 4 influence cards, to better flesh out the querant's environment.





Since every querant will bring different forces with them to each reading, no two readings (like no two stocks on Wall Street) however similar, will mean the same thing, or lead to the same result. Because of the haphazzard approach of fly-by-nite practitioners, such nuance is often lost, and thus most readings are of a dubious nature, leading again to the 'failure of meteorology' metaphor. Keeping these principals in mind, understanding Tarot is often only as good as understanding who is practicing it.
Reply:Remember always that the last three letters of "tarot" describe the process perfectly.

How do you use Wizardolody's "tarot" cards?

If anyone has the Wizaedology book, can you tell me how to use the "tarot" card things?

How do you use Wizardolody's "tarot" cards?
I looked up the book and I am not precisely sure how their version of the tarot cards work but if they are anything like a real deck then here is the short answer:





There are 78 cards divided up into a major and minor arcana. The major arcana has 22 trump (from the Roman parades called Triumpants that got shortened to trump) Then there are 16 court cards (face cards in a normal playing card deck) in 4 suits representing the 4 elements fire/wands, water/cups, air/swords and earth/disks. Then the 40 pip or number cards are divided into 4 suits again. There are ace through 10.





All of the cards actually live inside the fool card. All of the pip cards are just reflections of the aces. There are a number of ways to read the cards and a ton of resources on line.





Good luck and enjoy.

How do you use tarot cards?

I have a deck of tarot cards but i don't really understand how to use them. The book doesn't explain it very well.

How do you use tarot cards?
Do you intend to use your deck for card games or for divination? Tarot cards may be used for both game playing and for divination. Game playing is the original purpose of Tarot. Tarot was made to play a trick taking card game similar to Spades or Bridge. Tarot games are still played today mainly in Europe. I myself play actual card games with a Tarot deck. The use of Tarot cards for card reading did not begin until long after the appearance of the first Tarot cards. Since card reading is not the original purpose of Tarot, there can be no right or wrong way to read them. If your book does not explain it well enough for you, then the answer is to find a book or some other source that will work for you. I will give you sources for both Tarot divination and Tarot card games.
Reply:You really would have to read a book about it. A better book. There are different layouts that you can follow that have different meanings for the different locations in the layout where certain cards would infer different information depending on when they are drawn. There is entirely too much to share here.
Reply:I think a great way to learn tarot (whether you have a deck of cards or not) is to use a good free online tarot system.





There are excellent (100% free) tarot readings at http://www.ifate.com





They let you experiment with a variety of tarot spreads, and they've got all the card meanings and interpretations right there for you.

At the end of the day there is no set way to read cards - everyone does it differently.
Reply:Oh, well, I was going to say "Read the instructions," but it sounds like you tried to.





Maybe get a better book of instructions from the library.








Or just make it up as you go along.
Reply:Buy another book. How can anyone tell you how to do this on here? The cards all have different meanings - long meanings and they all interact with each other. Buy a better book.
Reply:im guessing terot cards are the ones you use to read peoples futures??.....if they are dont even touch them or try to learn to use them its just like ouija boards there a satanic game

What does it mean if the same question produces two unique configurations of tarot cards?

Hello :)





If I pose a question more than once and obtain two different configurations of tarot cards, will these two readings, once interpreted, produce the same answer?





Another way of asking this might be, if I ask the same question twice, how can I explain two unique configurations of tarot cards?

What does it mean if the same question produces two unique configurations of tarot cards?
It means that you didn't believe the cards the first time - and you probably shouldn't be jamming up the psychic airwaves with selfish doubts...
Reply:That tarot cards are completely subjective and can be interpreted any way you want, therefore not a reliable way of finding answers.
Reply:It means that Tarot is just bunk. That's just superstitious junk.
Reply:Because your quantum signature has changed as you move through the space-time continuum.





This means that the situation you are in is not identical between the two times you ask the question, the answer will not be.....
Reply:It means you didn't do it right the second time. Go back and do it again until you get the right configuration.
Reply:forget tarot cards...play poker..you have a better chance of coming out ahead....beam me up hoyel
Reply:I didn't know tarot cards produced answers. I thought they were limited to vague suggestions. An interesting control would be to have readings done on questions that can have a direct answer. Have an "authentic" psychic do the reading and have an expert read the psychics cards and a machine generated random draw and determine if there is any difference.
Reply:My partner does this to me all the time: I will do a reading for him in which he does not like the answer. He'll draw some more cards %26amp; will get the same answer.

Reply:well that should tell you that its not real. if every reading of the same quesiton has a different outcome, then its a fake. i mean that with the upmost respect. im trying to bash, but you did ask for my opinion!
Reply:Shuffle the deck and try again. You might get three different answers.


How do you develope your psychic abilities to read people without tarot cards or any tools?

I have been reading the Tarot for about 7 years. I have for the past two years been working with reading auras and talking to spirits. When I read the tarot I only use the pictures as triggers to start the film reel in my head which gives me the information I need. I was trying to find a catalyst to receive the information without having to use any tools such as Tarot cards.

How do you develope your psychic abilities to read people without tarot cards or any tools?
Meditation is where I started. First you have to get intouch with your inner self and your "guides" (some people may call them angels, guardians etc).





Open your mind and free your heart.
Reply:Probably through meditation.
