Uncloaking the Tarot
Okay, so a lot of people on the internet are interested in the Tarot........and a lot of people just don't understand it, it's shrouded in mystery and superstition..........
I have been using this tool for nearly all of my life and let me explain something about Tarot......it is not a dark tool, it does not open doorways that let demons come in.........it is not going to put a dark spot on your soul.....
The Tarot was developed based on the Archetypical Symbolism on the Human Condition. It is basically a Soul's Journey through this lifetime, and although you can use The Tarot for divinatory purposes (predicting the likely future outcome) of a situation.......it is not written in stone.
The Tarot is best used for personal growth and self-development.
The Major Arcana contain the 21 Archetypical Images of the Soul's Journey through Life, they are seeped in symbolism........combining the symbolism of many, many other esoteric systems. When you look at any ONE card, you are looking at a Qabbalic Meaning, a Numerology Meaning, an Astrological Meaning........the Colors need to be interpretted....there is so much DEPTH to any ONE card that study of the Tarot can last a lifetime. (I know).
Let's explore the word ESOTERIC. The Tarot is ESOTERIC as it was developed to have "hidden meanings", so that not everyone would or could understand the deck. It was developed by monks, as a SPIRITUAL tool......and only these cloistered scholars knew the true meanings of the cards. They were a politically charged issue and were hidden deep within the confines of our traditional religions. They carry with them the "Lifeprint" of the Human Condition.
So, it came to be that the Tarot was surrounded by mystery and awe, hence, the title of my book "Uncloaking The Tarot". My personal mission in life is to introduce the New Age to the General Public, and have the general population gain a better understanding of these arts.
My book was born when I got SOOOOO Irritated and those old "Miss Cleo" commercials........she was such a psychic fraud, feeding psychic junkies all over the country, it made me sick.
So, I wrote my book in order to try to get people to truly understand what the cards are meant for.
The best and highest use of the cards is to use them for your own Spiritual Growth........how well are you learning the 78 Lessons of the Tarot as you pass through time, are you learning and growing, or are you repeating past mistakes over and over and over.
Fortunately for you, I have made just about every mistake known to womankind (and mankind) and have understood the Tarot well enough to limit my repetitions of the same mistakes, and I can help you understand yourself and your relationships better (with or without the use of Tarot).
