How to use tarot cards?

In recent years, people's interest in tarot cards has increased dramatically. More and more people are looking for a way to reconcile internal and external reality, so as to make life more creative and imaginative. They found that tarot cards are very powerful tools for personal growth and insight cultivation.

Tarot cards can help you understand yourself better and teach you how to release your inner strength more confidently. You don't need psychic ability to use tarot cards well. You just need to respect and develop your innate intuition.

Tarot cards are mainly regarded as a divination tool. In the traditional tarot divination, two people are needed to solve the cards at the same time: one is called "questioner"-a person who encounters personal problems and wants to seek answers, and the other is called "card solver"-a person who knows how to explain the meaning of the cards. After the questioner shuffles and cuts the cards, the decoder arranges the selected cards according to a certain pattern (so-called card array). Each position in this deck has a specific meaning, and each card also has its own specific meaning. The interpreter combines these two meanings to reveal the questioner's question.

The strength of tarot cards comes from the combination of individuality and generality. You can look at each card in your own way, but at the same time, you can also feel the feelings of others. Tarot cards are a mirror that reflects the hidden side of your personal consciousness.

In divination, we shuffle cards, cut cards, choose some cards and spread them out. Although this process seems random, we still think that we have come up with a specific card. After all, this is the key to tarot divination-choosing the cards we want. Well, it is generally believed that the cards drawn at random can't represent any special meaning, or vice versa.

To answer this question, let's first study "randomness". Generally speaking, when an event is the result of mechanical action, we say it is random. Choose one from a set of possibilities-all possibilities have the same probability of ending, but there are no special factors. The definition of this random event contains two key assumptions: it is the result of mechanical action and has no special significance.

First of all, Tarot divination is not an isolated product of mechanical action. It is the result of a series of long-term conscious activities. We decided to learn tarot cards. We bought cards and began to study how to use them. We shuffle and cut cards in a certain way in a certain place. Finally, we use our intuition and understanding to explain the meaning of the card.

Every step of the way, we are actively involved. So why do we say that divination is a "random result of mechanical action"? Because we can't explain how psychological consciousness is invested. We know that there is no deliberate choice when drawing cards, so it is random. In fact, is there a deep power in this process, a power involving the subconscious? Does our inner state affect external things in a way that we have not yet understood? I insist on this possibility.

I use tarot cards, because it is the best tool I have found, which can make the whisper of the soul guide enter consciousness. When the card is opened, the thoughts, images and feelings that emerge are the signals of the spiritual director. How do I know this is a signal, not my imagination? Honestly, I don't know. I can only trust my own experience and observe what happened.

(Grand Acana)

The standard tarot deck consists of 78 cards, which are divided into two parts: the main card (Grand Akana) and the secondary card (Little Akana). "arcana" is the plural form of arcanum, which means "profound secret". For medieval alchemists, mystery is the secret of nature. Therefore, tarot cards bring together the secrets of constructing and explaining everything in the universe.

22 main cards are the core of tarot cards. Each main card symbolizes some universal human experience. They represent the prototype-directly and coherently depicting the influence of the human spiritual world.

Each card in the master card has its own name and serial number. The names of some cards directly express the meaning of cards, such as "strength", "justice" and "moderation". Other cards are people who live a certain life, such as "magician" or "hermit". There are also some cards that use the names of celestial bodies, such as "stars", "sun" and "moon". These celestial bodies are high above and represent elusive forces.

The main cards are special because they depict complex and profound inner reactions. Images on tarot cards can evoke many things because they combine abstruse symbols with recognizable people and situations. This symbol is subtle, but effective.

In divination, the main card has always attracted much attention. When a master card appears, the meaning on that card is by no means vulgar and temporary. They represent your most basic and most concerned things-your main feelings and motives. In later classes, I will talk in more detail about how you should know and explain the meaning of the main card in divination.
