The Stunning Conspiracy Concerning The Tarot
========== IT'S CARTOMANCY, I'M AFRAID ===========
What exactly is Cartomancy? The technique of ascertaining (or intuiting) one's fortune or some other situation, by means of manifestly random selections and array of cards in a prefigured design.
Do they work? Certain non-believers claim it's balderdash!. They claim it's completely fraudulent and cruelly preys upon the innocents, the susceptible and the gullible.
Now you would have to be a small toddler not to have heard of the Tarot. In which case it is highly unlikely you could be reading this. (unless you're a child prodigy, in which case you'd probably already know the answer to this question)
So I really believe most would be familiar with the systematic design of the Tarot. There is a bucketful of information out there and I won't bore you with the details here.
========== SO STRAIGHT UP MAN, IS IT A GOER? ==========
Seems everyone agues excitedly as to exactly how the Tarot works, or if in fact it works at all. You want your fortune told, right? You want your future predicted, right? You want a little more control of your life, right? What gives?
Does the methodology somehow stimulate hidden intuitive or psychic abilities in those so gifted? Does the interrogation procedure itself stimulate invisible outside intelligences; invisible forces, unearthly intelligences, extra-terrestrials, spirits of the dead who directly or indirectly interfere to refit current situations in a spiritual manner? Or is this a universe of 'no accidents' where the purposeful process of querying creates a simultaneously timed earth modality beyond the chaos theory?
Considered by some to be a gateway to the subconscious mind, the major arcana in particular, due somewhat to prototypical patterns, has been likened in essence to the psychology of Carl Jung's collective unconscious.
Sorry, but to fully comprehend the ultimate truth to the Tarot we'll need to delved into the Tarot's mysterious past.
========== MAESTRO, A LITTLE HISTORY, IF YOU PLEASE ==========
Under hazy circumstances, a 4 suited playing card pack first appeared in Europe in the 1370's, probably in Italy or Spain. This displayed a striking likeness to the modern playing card pack we use today. Then, in Italy in the 1430's, a an extra suit of 21 illuminated cards called trionfi ('triumphs') plus an individualized card called matto ('the fool') were added to this pack. No, 'the fool' was NOT the forerunner of the modern joker, which was created separately in the late 19th century, as a euchre game card, of a jack with no suit.
Similar to the Mardi Gras of the modern era, the depictions in the trionfi, most likely highlighted governing officials in medieval re-enactments of triumphal Roman parades. The reason for the trionfi was to function as a higher ranked suit, becoming 'trumps' or a suit of 'triumphs'. Played by 3 or 4 , occasionally 5 players, these 'tarot games' exhibited fluid alliances targeted toward the top player in each deal.
So the upshot is; based upon the Venetian or the Piedmontese tarot, until about 1780 in France, tarot was a pleasant waste of time. It had dead-set no spirituality. It didn't know a pound from a penny.
========== FAIR DINKUM? ==========
Here, I'll say it again - slower. Not even 230 years ago, the tarot was played as a game, possibly by children, not dissimilar to say our Pinochle. It was never intended to be a a soothsaying amplifier, a prophesier. It is NOT a purpose-built tool!! It's a twisted game. Emphatically!
You can brag and bluster about its epidemic popularity, the mountains of volumes of literature written on it, the testimonials to its effectiveness, however once compared to say Crystalomancy, the Runes, or the I-Ching, the Tarot's origins, genealogy and pedigree is in a state of ruddy embarrassment.
The I-Ching is not a mere child of just 230, it is a venerated philosophical seer of all things of some 6,000 years, probably the first transcribed document in history, created wholly and solely for the purpose of functioning as an ORACLE. It is imbued with thousands, not merely a couple of hundred years of vibrational human consciousness. It is truly an time-honored artifact.
========== BUT WAIT, THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT THE WONDER OF TAROT.==========
So . . .
The answer is in what is really real
We can look at this another way. It refers to the principle that we are all the masters of our own fate. We create our lives for ourselves according to what we predominantly desire or believe. We are also egocentric, meaning the world revolves around each of us. (to each of us).
So that when a card reader suggest to us a possible situation as depicted by the cards, our very powerful association 'reflex' kicks in full force, scans our life and makes every attempt to coordinate the broad-brush card situation with our 'real-life' situation. Therefore we discover what appears to be a trail of occurrences that seem to match. We, together with certain clearance we've given over to the reader, then trust the reading depicts an accurate portrayal of our lifestyle.
With our now current atmosphere of near-perfect trust the card reader will bring down his/her final judgment. In our now conditioned self, we believe this to be a state of physical reality.
========== INTRODUCING OUR STAR PERFORMER, OUR VERY OWN S.F.P. ==========
Remember what I said about us being the master of our fate? Well what we now do is to take the powerful belief of the reading outcome and 'force' it to become a life reality.
In other words we actually create the reality as prophesied by the cards. Incredible, no? This is what is known as a guess what? A self-fulfilling prophesy. So is this fraud? No, it's just another example of the amazing power of the mind.
