The Power of Tarot






                                          The Mystery Unfolds


A Tarot deck contains 78 cards and these 78 cards hold millions of secrets!

People usually ask - How does Tarot work? What is the whole process like?

The straight answer is­­ – each card contains an image. It may show men, women, children, objects, nature, animals, expressions or some form of energy. And the Tarot reader has to understand the meaning and significance behind each image.

But as you go deeper, it becomes important as to how these cards relate to each other and what types of links exist between them. But the most important part is the intuitive interpretation of the significance of a particular spread. (For the uninitiated, what I mean by a spread is the particular way in which cards are laid for a specific reading. For example, it may be a three card spread or a five card one or a horseshoe spread or a Celtic cross depending on the nature of the question and the treatment it requires.)

The intuitive understanding is the most stellar part of a Tarot analysis. Therefore, the reader has to be a person endowed with a strong intuition. He also needs to be capable of a cool and calm reflection because you don’t carry out a reading in a disturbed state of mind. So, someone into prayer and meditation with a serene disposition has the right frame for this very interesting and intriguing job!

Recently, a married couple who were on the verge of separation approached me for a final overview of the situation and when I told them that despite all that had happened, their basic bond was still very strong, they were in for a shock. And as they gave frank and honest communication a chance, the misunderstandings melted away and the relationship soon stabilized.

But had they not consulted the Tarot, their relationship was as good as gone because through this mysterious science, they came to know a few facts about their life which were still not clear to them! This then gives you a lot of satisfaction that is, being in a position to help people understand themselves better. And as they understand themselves better and can see more clearly, they take better and sound decisions.

So, we come back to the original question?
How does it work?
Firstly, you build the question into the cards during the shuffling. In more contemporary terms, it is like customizing the cards or tuning them into the spirit of the question.
Then, as you proceed to read a spread, the imagery is so rich and diversified that it serves to throw light on multiple issues or multiple dimensions of a particular issue with its deep symbolism. It hides so much yet it reveals a lot!

And there are so many common threads in the ocean of collective unconscious that within no time, light begins to shine on different facets of a problem bringing in much needed clarity and insight. And we would do well to remember that both the client and the reader bring their own energies to the table which give a distinct flavor to every session.

Moreover, if there are any rough corners still left out, your intuition smoothens them out in a non-intrusive fashion. And deftly linking all the cards like the sparkling diamonds in a necklace, the final interpretation emerges akin to a magnificent story delving into the past, present and future, handling the finer aspects like a master storyteller with everything connected and leading to the ultimate outcome.

Once a reading has been handed over to the Querent or discussed with him, he would do well to read it a couple of times to grasp its full import and then offer his valuable feedback for either validation or further investigation.

And there is always a surprise or two, waiting for the client. For example, when a particular client was desperate to know what he should do in a certain situation, one of the cards he pulled out was ‘The Hanged Man’ which is a major arcana card of surrender. This meant that he was not required to do much at that point of time but be in a spirit of let-go and allow things to take their own course of action. So, this constant urge that life is not happening the way we want it to happen, this urge must be taken care of especially when ‘The Hanged Man’ appears in your reading.

Thus, life has this tremendous ability to surprise us at every turn and your Tarot reader points out such astonishing turns to you in an amazingly accurate fashion! You don’t go to Tarot to ask yes or no questions. No, Tarot is not meant for that. It is like a friend or an elder to whom you go for advice when you find yourself in a challenging situation. It gives you a bird’s eye view of the whole scenario and you become aware of many aspects of the issue which were earlier unknown to you.

The Tarot confirms certain things and opposes others thus giving you a balanced view where you become capable of taking the right decision. Moreover, the universe keeps sending you signals with respect to what is to come but our minds are so preoccupied with our constant chatter that we almost always fail to see or observe these omens, least of all understand their significance. Tarot has the power to make you aware of the missing links in your jigsaw puzzle.

And what is life after all? It’s a sum total of all the decisions which you have taken till now and would continue to take in future. While bad decisions stink, good ones are full of fragrance. And Tarot ensures that you reach out for this fragrance by gaining more and more clarity about where your life is going, be it your career, relationships, business, health or your spiritual journey.

So, I invite you to come and embrace the Power of Tarot and give your life a glimpse of new possibilities, fresh insights and awesome beginnings.
