Are Online Tarot Readings Any Good?

With the proliferation of online and computer generated tarot readings, including numerous free ones, we can question what the value of such readings is.

Tarot cards are an ancient method of foretelling events which may occur in a person's future. It is the most widespread method of divination in the western world. It is based on the premise that the larger movements in a person's life are reflected in the smallest ones, such as tarot cards. As above so below! Online tarot readings is simply consciousness' modern way of bringing insight through the medium of technology.

How to use online tarot readings properly? Same as when you used to do it with a psychic or by yourself:

1) Focus on your question. You may like to say it aloud if that helps. It is best to do this in a calm and relaxed atmosphere
2) Choose a spread (most programs offer several options)
3) Click on the button to get the interpretation.

Using online tarot readings on a regular basis will also help you in developing your intuition and psychic ability as well as learning the significance of the cards. Enjoy the process. It is fun and easier than trying to learn with a book. The online tarot spreads are fully interactive and give a detailed introduction to the tarot cards, their meaning and how to interpret them.

The imagery of the cards is also profound and deeply evocative, helping you gain insight into what is going on in your universe. While it is important to get the know the general significance of the cards, you may also resonate more with some tarot decks than others. Being strongly symbolic, it is important that you like the cards you deal with, that they 'speak' to you in a sense. This goes for both online and physical tarot decks. If you can relate to the imagery it is easier for you to interpret the cards and access your intuitive powers.

A note about the reversed cards. Online tarot spreads seem to deal a lot of reversed cards. These are NOT bad cards! They simply have a different meaning than when they are upright.

As with any form of divination, intuition should guide the reading. With online tarot readings, all the computer does is deal the cards. If you have taken the time to focus on your question, then it is no different than dealing the cards yourself or asking someone else to do it for you. The difference with computer and online readings is that you get a quick interpretation from the generally accepted meaning of the cards. Then you can add your spin on it according to a number of factors such as:

- the card position
- the neighbouring cards
- cards trends such as repeating numbers or suits
- your own intuition

The more familiar you become with the cards, the more you will be able to interpret them. You can also add various systems of interpretation such as Jungian psychology, the MYERS briggs model, astrological signs and many more archetypes.

The computer age makes things fast and convenient for us. As human beings our magical and mystical dimensions can be serviced by technology. This is what online tarot readings can do for us. If you would like to try an online tarot reading now, visit: http://www.holisticdirectory.com.au/tarot.php

The Tarot As A

Guide To Life

Tarot cards are tools used by people to help get answers or advice in the form of divination. There are 78 cards in a Tarot deck. These 78 cards are divided into two parts - the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana. Each card represents a different meaning. The Major Arcana cards relate to the journey of life and life lessons, while the Minor Arcana are representative of daily life and relate to the cards of an ordinary playing card deck. The Tarot is often used in psychic readings as a tool for getting clarification.

Tarot cards have been around since the 15th century. They were originally used only by members of the church and thought to be a way to communicate with God. Through history, though, they have been used as a way to tell the future or give insight into life. Today

There are a wide variety of Tarot decks. The most popular is the Ryder-Waite deck which uses the most classical art. This deck is the most recognized deck and almost ever Tarot reader has used it at one point or another. There are many options in Tarot cards, though. Some are very artistic or themed. They all have the same number of cards and all have the same meanings attached to the cards. However, in some decks the suits of the Minor Arcana differ slightly. In the traditional decks there are the four suits of the Minor Arcana - swords, wands, pentacles and cups. In modern decks these are sometimes changed, most often pentacles are changed to coins. This change does not alter the reading of the cards, though. Also in some decks the Major Arcana card names may be slightly different, they are often given more modern names.

During a Tarot reading the reader and the querent, the person getting the reading, usually both focus on the question at hand. The reader shuffles the cards and then lays them out. There are various layouts, called spreads. In the spread the position of each card also holds special meaning and is used to further get answers from the cards. The read then interprets the cards and usually adds in their own intuitive touch based upon psychic messages they may receive.

Tarot cards are really not a means by which to access the future. Tarot cards are meant to be used as a guide. They can help a person decide what may happen or what they need to change in their life. The future is not written in stone and changes with each decision or change in a persons life, so it is impossible for the Tarot to be able to predict the future. If a reader promises to tell a querent their future with 100% accuracy then they are not being honest or they could possibly be a fake. It is important when choosing a tarot reader that a person looks for someone who is honest and will be willing to explain the Tarot and how it works to them.

Getting a tarot reading is something that millions of people do all the time. It is something that is surrounded by controversy, but for those who are familiar with the Tarot, it is a great tool to use to help out with problems that can pop up in life. Tarot readings can help bring to light situations that the querent may not be aware of or things that may not have happened yet that could effect the querent. It can be a great tool for helping a person during a tough time in life.

Traditional Tarot

The tradition of tarot is estimated to be over five hundred years old with archetypal roots that can be traced back to almost two thousand years. The traditional tarot has given way to the modern methods of divination, but it still remains a reservoir of ancient wisdom. The traditional tarot decks are the source of origin of the modern playing cards.

The history and origin of tarot is not very clear, though there are numerous theories supporting beliefs of its origin from various places such as China, India or Egypt. However, the oldest Tarot cards that are found date back to the fifteenth century and were found in Spain, Italy and France. According to historical evidence, traditionally, tarot cards were used as playing cards with pictures depicting conditions of life, liberal arts and virtues such as temperance and prudence. It is widely believed that initially tarot was not used as a means of divination.

The traditional tarot was adapted to contemporary styles and Rider-Waite Tarot, Aquarian Tarot, Crowley Thoth Tarot and Cagliostro Tarot are now considered the most elementary and traditional tarot card decks. These cards are designed on the basis of the historical cards and considered as ideal choices fro beginners. Rider-Waite Tarot was designed in 1909 by artist Pamela Coleman Smith, according to the specifications provided by Arthur Edward Waite. This deck contains seventy-eight cards with 56 minor arcana cards and 22 major arcana cards. However, this deck revolutionized the traditional decks by assigning pictures to the minor arcana cards. This deck is the world's most popular Tarot deck, which is preferred by beginners as well as advanced students of Tarot.

However, most of the Tarot historians consider all the tarot decks that were in practice used before the nineteenth century as historical decks. Traditional tarot decks are considered to be closely based on the decks that were prevalent in the Golden Dawn era. The A. E. Waite and Pamela Coleman Smith's deck is a fine example of traditional tarot decks. These tarot decks further gave rise to the more popular Rider-Waite deck and Thoth deck.

How to Give a Tarot Reading in 7 Memorable Steps

2007-02-24T20:30:00.000Z

click on me and receive the meaning of each of the cards day by day

Professional Tarot Card Readings By some of the finest readers in the World who are waiting for you now

There are many, many ways to read Tarot cards, but it helps to
have a consistent method that you use each time - this way, you
can think less about how you're going to read and focus
completely on your subject, the cards and their meaning.

A basic reading can be boiled down to seven steps: Rituals,
Shuffling, Selecting, Turning, Reading, Discussion and Refining.

Rituals: Rituals are an important part of reading the Tarot, but
whatever those rituals may be will be uniquely yours. Some
people take special care of their deck, wrapping in a beautiful
cloth or keeping the cards in a special box. Other sleep with
their cards under their pillow, to increase their connectivity
with their deck, and many people feel that the must never read
their own cards using their deck. Whatever rituals you employ,
including the methods you use to lay out and read the cards,
keep them consistent. Before reading, make a silent opening
statement - a prayer or affirmation, or a greeting to your inner
guide.

Shuffling: Always shuffle face-down, so no one sees the cards,
and avoid bending the cards - this is no time for fancy tricks.
Beyond that, there are a number of methods of shuffling. You can
hold about half the deck in each hand, and insert one half down
through the other half. Another method, designed for maximum
hand contact with little damage to the cards, is the one
recommended by Norma Cowie in her book "Tarot for Successful
Living": Hold the deck face down in your dominant hand. Push
some cards from the top with your thumb into the other hand.
Then, push again, but this time to the bottom of the new pile.
Continue alternating a push to the top, then one to the bottom
until all the cards have been transferred. At this point, put
the entire deck back into your dominant hand and start over.
This method can be difficult at first, but your technique will
improve with practice. Stop shuffling when you feel that it's
time to stop, or if a card falls from the deck (and take note of
any fallen card, for it has meaning) and then return it or set
it aside. If you choose to return the card to the deck and the
same card turns up later in the reading, consider that
significant.

Selecting: Spread the cards in a line or sem-circle, face down,
above the area you will use for the layout. Ask your subject to
choose a card, then slide it face down to the first position
within your chosen layout, keeping it vertical, not horizontal.
Add new cards in the same order to complete the layout.

Turning: Turn over the first card from side-to-side, so it is
not reversed by you. Tell your subject the significance of that
card's position in the spread, studying the card to get a sense
of its meaning, both alone and in that position. Turn the next
card only when you're ready to focus on it, repeating until all
the cards are turned.

Reading: Using your knowledge of the Tarot or, if you're new, a
guidebook, comment on your impressions of the meaning of the
card. Don't just go by the book definitions of the cards - say
whatever comes into your mind. Look at the image on the card and
remark on the card's themes as they come to mind. Whatever your
first impressions are, they're correct. Then analyze the meaning
of the card in connection with its position and comment on it -
if a card is reversed, explain its meaning ("Upright, it means
_____") and then comment on its reversal ("But when reversed, it
indicates ______"). Do this with each card, saying what comes to
mind. Don't ask for validation from the subject yet, just share
any thoughts and interpretations that come to mind. Try not to
second-guess yourself or overthink what you're saying - you ant
to tap into your intuition, not your intellect.

Discussion: After you've given your interpretation of the cards,
ask your subject if anything you've said was particularly
meaningful as regards some issue in their life. If yes,
reinterpret the cards in more detail, specific to the
circumstances that they describe. If your client says no,
nothing sounds familiar, ask them questions and re-phrase the
themes of the cards - you may well be on the right track, but
need to explain the cards in a different way for the client
until something rings a bell.

Refining: Once your subject gives you some feedback, reinterpret
the cards in a way that's specific to the subject's situation.
Tell a story tying all of the cards together, explaining them in
as clear a way as possible. tying all the themes together, and
perhaps using a different way of explaining them which might
make it even clearer to the client. Focus on the positive
aspects of the cards, and stress that nothing is carved in stone
- the subject's actions can change the situation later. If any
of the cards indicate a negative event, explain again that the
subject is master of their own destiny and if they change their
course of action then they can remedy the situation and head off
trouble. Remind the subject that the cards only reflect what's
in his or her mind, and that they have free will to change the
outcome of future events. If you can;t get a good read on a
particular card, ask the subject to draw another and use it as a
modifier - read it in connection with the original card. If a
card was dropped or set aside during the shuffle, interpret it
as a guidance card, offering overall advice on the entire
reading as a whole.

Naturally, your style of reading Tarot cards will be unique, and
you may have a method that's very different from this one. As
long as you're consistent with your rituals and techniques,
you'll be able to focus entirely on reading the cards without
the distraction of wondering what you should be doing next.

Tarot Deck of Cards

The tarot deck of cards, usually 78 in number, is divided into two separate categories, the major and the minor arcana (arcana from the Latin meaning of closed or secret). There are 21 individual cards, referred to as trumps, and the fool card in the major arcana. The minor arcana have 56 cards consisting of 10 cards numbered from Ace to ten in four different suits. In a traditional tarot deck of cards, the suits include batons, wands, rods, or staves; cups, swords, and coins, disks, or pentacles. In addition, there are four court cards, or face cards, in a tarot deck, including the page or knave, queen, knight and king in each of the same four suits.

One of the most interesting cards in a tarot deck is the Fool. He represents both the number 22 and zero. Twenty-two completes the cycle or journey of the major arcana, whereas zero represents the god of force, a symbol of our unlimited potential. A circle, therefore, has no end but continues on and on, a symbol of God and infinity. The bright sun above the Fool is a sign of energy that melts the snow on the mountains, bringing life and nourishment to those below. In addition, there is more significance to the Fool card in the tarot deck, such as the bag representing memories, the eagle for aspirations, the white rose for purity, and the dog symbolizing the eventual course of evolution.

The number two card, the Magician, signifies the conscious mind or the ability to control from above what occurs below by the wand, the cup, the sword, and the coins. Thoughts of passion and desire are held in check by the wisdom and purity of the Magician. The High Priestess, the subconscious mind, reflects a balance or impartiality between the light and dark pillars, the two opposites of male and female. Her knowledge and experience provide the proper and wisest course of action in the link between the conscious and the subconscious.

An older version of the Magician is the Emperor, the ruler who controls the system needed for effective management of thoughts and desires. The Empress in a tarot deck is simply an indication of time. It represents the 12 signs of the zodiac, an indicator that eventually all thoughts and aspirations will become realties. Another interesting card in the tarot deck is the Hierophant, the teacher or our inner self. The Hierophant makes decisions based on reason and intuition, which he has gathered in the cycle of life through experience and wisdom.

The Lovers card symbolizes relationships and partners, the compatibility of male and female. In this card, the woman is the subconscious, the male is the conscious mind, and the angel above them represents the superconscious. In time the female gains the wisdom and inspiration to give to the relationship, raising it to a spiritual level.above the physical or materialistic world. Our will is controlled through strength and driven by the Chariot. The Hermit might well be considered the creator; he stands alone above the rest simply by virtue of his wisdom and success. The lantern he holds offers enlightenment for those who would follow. Furthermore, the Wheel of Fortune reveals to us who we really are and Justice corrects the mistakes of our past and makes them right. Interestingly enough, the Hanged Man is upside down, the way that others see us in contrast to the way we really are. In the cycle of life, the tarot deck includes the Death card, for death must come to everyone. However, the meaning of Death in the tarot cards is a transformation and rebirth of consciousness to a higher level.

In addition, the Temperance card depicts an angel, with one foot in the water and one on the earth. Similar to the High Priestess, she too balances wisdom and introspection with desire and doubt, further solidifying the link between the conscious and the subconscious. The Devil card symbolizes the lies and misconceptions we may encounter on our journey. Eventually, however we will reach the Tower with its bolt of lightning, an indication that we have achieved true knowledge and understanding.

The major arcana also includes the Star, often presented as a woman who takes from the pool of knowledge and relays what she has learned to the five senses of man. The Moon card represents our spiritual evolution from creation to creator. The tarot cards also emphasize the importance of the Sun for light and energy and the Judgment needed for an understanding of the link between the universal conscious of man and humanity. A final card in the major arcana is the World, which represents our place in the unending cycle of life, in relationship to an unchanging Universe.

The four suits of the minor arcana portray the various material aspects of life and the numbers, as interpreted through numerology, indicate the strength of the vibrations in each card. In the suit of wands, we see the realm of spirit, ideas, ambition, and growth in the fire, club, and creative cards. Our desires and feelings, not outwardly apparent, are reflected in the suit of cups by heart, emotions, and water. In the suits of swords, spades, air and intellect, the cards symbolize the struggles to bring ideas into reality. The final desired result is found in the suit of pentacles, where diamonds and earth represent the completion of the link between the conscious and the subconscious.

There are many types of tarot decks of cards, in a variety of styles, shapes, and number; however, their interpretation is basically the same in every deck. The reading of the tarot cards may prove fascinating to study. The tarot provides great pursuit for an occultist, or if you believe in the supernatural, or if you are simply curious about life and its ups and downs, and such aspects as love, career, and success. If you're seeking insight into the past, the present, or the future, perhaps you'll find it in the tarot deck of cards.

The Origins

The origins of the Tarot are surrounded with myth and lore. It is hard to know for sure what the facts are. The Tarot has been thought to come from places like India, Egypt, China and Morocco. Others say the Tarot was brought to us from the Sufis or the Jewish Cabbalists. Still others contend that the origin of the tarot was from Moses. In the library of Alexandria, in Egypt, there were scrolls that were based on the Book of Thoth, an ancient book that came from Egypt's mystery schools. One theory is that the illustrations on the Tarot cards are secret teachings of the Book of Thoth hidden in the innocent pictures.
It seems that wherever there was a secret 'word of mouth' tradition handed down from teacher to pupil, it was hailed as the origin or beginning of Tarot. A large group believed it was the Gypsies who brought the tarot to Europe, the word gypsy being a corrupted version of Egyptian. That is highly unlikely, since evidence points to gypsies not using Tarot until the 20th century. Before that, palmistry was their preferred method of fortune telling.

The Historical Evidence Behind the Origins of the Tarot

It seems the only evidence there is to the origins of the Tarot can be found in the cards that were made in Italy, around 1420. The symbolism of the trumps can be found in the European art of the time, with some drawings being exactly the likeness of those found on Tarot cards.

History tells us that a scholar named Marziano da Torona, who was secretary to the Duke of Milan, may have invented the Tarot deck. Marziano was a scholar and an expert astrologer. The young duke, Filippo Maria Visconti instructed Marziano to create a game, using a deck that would replace the common suits of swords, coins, staves and cups. The duke wanted the new deck to have cards that represented virtues, riches, pleasures and purities. Marziano went on to create the card deck that Visconti wanted. He wrote a companion book to go with the deck of cards. It is on display in the Paris National library. In the book, there are no divine meanings to the cards, but no real rules for a card game, either. The book focuses on the symbolic meaning of the pictures and the different ranks of the depicted characters. Michelino da Besozzo is the Italian artist credited with painting the cards.

Is it plausible that the origins of the Tarot as the curious card game invented by Marziano da Torona? If so, why doesn't the book that accompanied the deck refer to the divination of the cards?

The Mystery Continues About The Origins of the Tarot

Where did the word Tarot come from? It has been called a Hebrew, Latin or Egyptian word. Is the word Tarot really an anagram, which when solved explains the mystery of the cards? Once again, the historical evidence of the origins of the word points to where the cards first appeared - in Italy. The cards were called Carte da trionfi, which is Italian for "cards of the triumphs". Later, a new card game was introduced, called Trumps or Triumphs. As it was played with different cards, the original Carte da trionfi became tarocco. In French they were called tarot.

What are these cards that are shrouded in mysterious beginnings used for? Are they good or evil? The Tarot is basically a set of symbols, which are printed on a pack of 78 cards. Regular playing cards have hearts, clubs, spades and diamonds as suits. Tarot cards have different suits, with meanings. The Wands (also known as staves or rods) point to creativity and energy. There are the Cups (or vessels), relating to emotions and friends; Swords cover the area of challenge and thought; the Pentacles (coins or disks) relate to money and security. The cards are placed in a particular pattern. A Tarot reader uses the cards as an oracle that can answer questions from the past, present or future.

The philosophy behind the Tarot is that the future is subject to change. If you are given enough notice, you can avoid the event you are being warned about. The Tarot makes you think, make you take steps that you might not have considered. When you ask a question of the Tarot that relates to the future, you'll be shown what will happen if you don't change anything. Many consider the Tarot cards as more of a counselling guide than a divining tool. Tarot readings can provide flashes of inspiration where otherwise the problems the person may be facing may seem insurmountable.

Do the cards that are used today, all over the world come from the deck Marziano da Torona created in the 1400's? Is the reason the origins of the Tarot are so shrouded in mystery owing to Anima Mundi? The Anima Mundi or soul of the world is seen as the vital force that presides over the growth and continuity of all living things. Like a Universal library, it contains the entire human races' memories and wisdom from the past, present and future. It can be summoned with deep thought. Imagine all the basic figures one could find in all religions, myths, legends and folklore. When combined, this wealth of knowledge is a powerhouse. To understand this more one can look at the Empress card of the Tarot. The very essence of femininity is represented in the Empress - she is the great mother Goddess of the world. She represents 'the eternal feminine', in myth and psychology. Does working with the images of the Tarot somehow allow our unconscious to connect with that human collectiveness? Does the Tarot become a porthole to the storehouse of answers to any question any of us has ever had? Perhaps it is because of the mystical Anima Mundi that we can't pinpoint the origin of the Tarot with certainty.

We may never really know the true history or the origins of the Tarot. Nevertheless, we continue to be attracted to the Tarot's wisdom, symbols and story.

The Tarot Card Reading

Professional Tarot Card Readings By some of the finest readers in the World who are waiting for you now

THE READING- The most common and effective way to do a reading is the Celtic Cross. Each position has a certain meaning on its own and then the card is translated corresponding to the position.

METHOD: Find a card that will represent the querent. I usually find a court face card for the person. Read the meanings of the cards and pick the best one. Put this card in the middle.

Shuffle the cards as the reader first. Silently or aloud ask the spirits around to help you give a accurate reading.

Hand the cards to the querent by turning the cards so they face them the same way as they faced you.

Tell the querent to shuffle the question into the cards and to concentrate very hard on the question.

Take the cards back so they face you as they faced the querent.

Side flip the cards so that you once again preserve the position of the meaning. You can either stop and explain each card in its position, or as I do, lay them all out and get a gist of the reading.

After all the cards are laid out, take a look at cards. There are certain patterns that should not be overlooked.

READING HINTS:

Have your book and use it. A good reading is a mixture of the written meanings and your feelings and experience of the cards.

More than four of any suit or the Major Arcana in the ten card layout has special meaning. Overall, 4 Major cards mean that other forces and/or people rule the situation at hand and not the querent. 4 wands or more mean overall growth issues. 4 cups or more mean love issues rule. 4 swords or more mean strife. 4 pentacles or more emphasize material and/or money issues.

Practice with a friend or yourself for a while and write down the outcome of what you think the reading will mean. Readings usually take 1-6 months for them to come true.

Read a lot of books on the Tarot.

Read both meanings of the cards whether it is reversed or not. Knowing the total meaning of the card helps you give advice on alternate actions that will bring about a different outcome. I usually look at the positive side of cards in a negative meaning to give the person a chance to change their moldable fate.
