Why learn the Tarot?

It's a fair question. But there can be several reasons why people ask me this.

They wonder why someone who looks and sounds as sane and sensible as I do in "real life" would spend time learning (and teaching and advising and making money from) something which sounds so foolish, frivolous, and illogical on the surface -- or as far as their often very limited information goes.

As sincerely and simply as I can, I answer these people, "Because I have learned the Tarot works when you know what you're doing and that it has value for me."

What Is the Tarot?

This is a very complex question -- whose answer is often controversial. I will keep this answer brief, simple and factually correct, but I invite those who are interested in more information on the history of the Tarot to research it either in libraries or online yourself.

What Is the Tarot?

Why Learn the Tarot?

Why learn the Tarot? It's a fair question. But there can be several reasons why people ask me this.

Why Learn the Tarot?

The Tarot
Where Do You Begin?

First of all, the Tarot is broken into two (or arguably three) different sections.

The Major Arcana of the Tarot contains the archetypal symbols (vast transpersonal and spiritual patterns that underlie and support human growth, behavior, perspectives and experience) that are found in the lore and religious underpinnings of every known culture.

The Major Arcana tells the story of the Fool's Journey ... or the Hero's Journey ... from his moment of embarking on life's grand adventure through the stages of initiation and evolution that will lead him finally to a pinnacle of success and wisdom ... from which he may begin the process again at a more sophistical level of knowledge and with more complex challenges on the path he travels.

The Tarot
Where Do You Begin?

The Tarot
Start with the Basics

Rods (which correspond to the suit of Clubs) -- and depending on the specific Tarot are also depicted and named as staves, wands, batons, and scepters. Rods focus on issues of personal ambition, professional goals, public reputation, individual vision and destiny, matters of self-confidence, courage, charisma, pride, and initiative.

Featured Tarot Article:
Leo and Strength
Most Tarot decks show Strength as a woman in a beautiful garden caressing a lion ... a gesture of affection, trust, and the acknowledgment of power. For reasons that escape understanding in some cases, lions have long symbolized valor, courage, power, majesty, and yes, strength. There's also an unmistakable grace that goes with leonine power, and certainly anyone with prominent Leo energy in his character is willing to accept that compliment.

How to Read Your Natal Chart
How to Read Your Natal Chart
By
Rebecca Brents

Astrology is for Skeptics

Real astrology doesn't tell you how to run your life. It doesn't make your decisions for you. It doesn't say you're consigned to a certain "fate."

Real astrology charts life's natural cycles. It describes creation and experiences in ways that make sense.

Real Astrology
can do for you!!
