The Tarot Cards
My tarot
deck of choice is the 'Thoth' deck, created by Aleister Crowley. These
are the cards that for me have the most appropriate symbolism to the way
in which I read. All of the cards displayed on this site are from this
deck. This is a very popular deck, and is easy to purchase should you
wish to try it for yourself. For more information about the Thoth deck,
Aleister Crowley, and the cards' artist, Lady Frieda Harris, see my links
page.
The standard
tarot deck is made of of 72 cards, 22 major arcana cards, and 56 minor
arcana. The minor arcana cards are seperated into four sections, wands
(fire), disks (earth), swords (air) and cups (water), each relating four
different spheres of life. Each card has a different meaning, and the
interaction of the cards with each other, their individual places in the
reading, is read as a whole. One card is very much influenced by the cards
surrounding it.
A tarot
spread is a means of recieving psychic communication and relating it to
'real life'. It is a tool, rather like a telephone, that enables me to
understand messages from my spirit guides.
