I would absolutely love to have some discussions with you about Tarot! I feel you could most likely teach me a lot. How long have you read the cards? I started at the beginning of Summer, thinking it would be a lark but I was definitely wrong. It has become a passion and a real challenge, learning to tap into intuition and read based on the symbols, numbers, and colors in the cards.

I have never looked at the cards as an indicator of destiny or the foretelling of the future rather I use them instead for the consideration of and reflection of the undercurrents of my life. The cards allow me to 'see the whole picture.'
I do not believe cards are solely the realm of the witchcraft and the occult. If that were the case then most of the world has been acting in a blasphemous manner as a standard deck of playing cards is actually a tarot deck modified down through history. I point too to the proliferation of 'Angel" cards "Fairie" decks, "Goddess" cards, etc. These are all tarot decks with less offending names.
