What Can the Tarot Cards Tell You?
Tarot cards are not fortune-telling cards; they will
not tell you that a certain event is definitely going
to happen. The philosophy behind the Tarot is that all
future events are subject to change, and if you are
warned of unpleasant events in advance, you can prevent
them.
- Tarot cards benevolently warn that danger lies
ahead if you stay on your current course and change
nothing. You may choose to ignore this warning, but
when you pass the danger zone, you will pay quite
severely. Or you can take preventive measures and
change the course of events.
- Tarot does not tell fortunes because
divulging details of an unalterable future is counter-productive.
On the contrary, it is supposed to make you think
and act. It subscribes to the view that future events
can be changed if you take note of them and act appropriately.
- If they predict good times, you must still make
a conscious effort to continue doing whatever you
are doing now, or the prediction will go unfulfilled!
Tarot cards never tell you what is going to happen
- they tell you what is likely to happen, based on
your present course of action.
- Tarot cards can answer questions about the past,
as well as those about the future. And they can
reveal the present as well. Often, the cards can show
the thoughts, feelings and motivations of the questioner,
and of others who are related to the question. Most
relationship spreads have positions for both partners
for this reason. If there is something that you must
know in order to solve a problem, the Tarot can and
will reveal it to you. Often, you'll find that you
already knew it, but you overlooked it or ignored
it.
- Tarot cards are also a wonderful source of advice
and guidance. In the hands of an expert, Tarot
cards can make a good counsellor.
- They do not always tell you what you want to
know, but they do always tell what you need to know.
They do not always answer the question that you ask,
but they will always answer the question that needs
answering the most.
