Tarot Reading
21 Answers
On Friday I'm going to have a tarot card reading.
I know there are lots of people who will think it's a load of tosh but what did those of you who have been to a tarot reading think? I'm fairly open minded about it, I don't believe either way currently. I'm fully expecting not to really get anything from it, just a bit of fun at an event I'm going to.

I can tell you a story about Tarot cards. Forty years ago a woman's magazine had cut out tarot cards, so my mum cut them out. We then had them laid on the table and the first two cards picked out were a streak of lightning and a coffin, which meant a sudden death. Just then the phone rang and it was my brother to say that his partner had collapsed and died. My mother swept up the tarot cards and threw them on the fire. As a result, I personally would not have anything to do with tarot cards ever again.
Well coincidences do happen every now & again grasscarp.
The ambience (for want of a better word) of this sort of stuff is great. All mysterious and bordering of gothic and stuff; but as for whether it delivers.... Well, even if you believe in it just being a tool for the mind to use and interpret, it seems a rather blunt tool to come up with anything particularly specific.

Some interesting little tales. Sort of makes me more keen to go. I'm just intrigued as to how it works and what will be said as I've never been to anything like this before.
It's just some lady at a school craft fair so its not an evening of this sort of thing, just a side line and I thought I'd give her 15 minutes of my time. I'm quite looking forward to it, but will remain non-expectant and just see what happens.

I use Tarot and it's a very beneficial tool if used correctly, great for meditations and also for any sort of applied energy work. As for 'telling the future'- the future always remains mutable whatever cards or anything else says, what they do do is give a suggestion of direction and probability which needs careful interpretation. As long as you see them in a very broad way things are fine, otherwise you end up with ideas like Grasscarp's Mum who thought (I'm assuming) The Tower? and Death? ( from the description) cards meant a sudden death where that is not the meaning at all necessarily and certainly the cards could not have made anything happen. Treat them with thought and they are really wonderful for self enlightenment and progression, treat them as a set in stone literal message and they'll scare the life out of you at some point- which is not their intended purpose at all.
