Tarot is one of the most popular divination practices, attracting occultists to use it for centuries and in recent years, brightly colored cards have gained more and more popularity.
People usually choose a free tarot card reading to know more about their future, their future connections with people, and their impact on their lives.
Where does the Tarot come from?
It may come as a surprise, however, that the Tarot is relatively modern art. Although Tarot cards appeared around 1400, they were originally used for games. The practice of predicting the future based on playing cards did not actually appear until 1785 when the French occultist Jean-Baptiste Alliette – known as Etteilla – his inverted name – created clear links between picture books, astrology, and Egyptian teaching.
Over the next century, mystics and philosophers continued to develop the role of the tarot. Towards the end of the 1890s, several London occultists created “The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn”, one of the groups responsible for revitalizing modern magic. Two of the group’s founders, MacGregor and Moina Matters, wrote a textbook that explained in detail the power of Tarot symbolism, called Book T.
How many cards have a tarot pack?
The Tarot is a pack of 78 different cards, each with its own images, symbols, and spiritual vibrations. While some believe that these books are simply ink on paper, they are a tool that can help people unlock and discover their inner spiritual wisdom.
With the power of the mind over matter, if that person focuses his or her energy on Tarot cards, they can discover truths about their side of the spiritual realm. There are many different ways to perform a tarot reading, and the approach depends largely on the individual reader.
There is nothing scary about the Tarot
In modern popular culture, it is often believed that the reader must be spiritually involved before starting the session. It may be necessary for a few people to get things started, but it is not essential either. You can read Tarot cards without invoking any kind of natural powers present in nature.
The connection between Astrology and Tarot
Tarot and Astrology have much in common, even if they are not related. Similar to the zodiac signs based on elements, namely air, earth, fire and water, the minor Arcana contains four costumes belonging to these elements. It includes swords, pentacles, rods, and cups.
