  • I do need to pick up a couple of points. First, you say that tarot is not a game, while in point of fact, tarot cards were invented for playing card games 350 years before anyone used them for divination. The games are still played throughout continental Europe. Next, while the images are largely of Christian origin, there is no evidence of rosicrucian or kabbalisitic origins - these were supposed by later 19th century occultists. The images are probably a Christian triumph procession.

  • 'tarot as not a game' was a reference to tarot reading, and cartomancy, not using tarot as a game,

    the tarot game is called tarocci by the way.

  • Hi, sorry for any misunderstanding there. The games of tarot have many names. The cards and games are Tarocchi in Italy, Tarock or Tarokky is central/Eastern Europe, Troccas/Troggu in Switzerland, Cego in Germany, and of course, Tarot if France (it's their second most popular card game now).

  • agreed :-)

  • While I agree with most what you said, I argue one point. I am a pretty much complete skeptic, but I still enjoy using the tarot not only as an interesting hobby but also as a tool for deeper thinking and interpretations of situations. Using the cards for a reading can have a very psychological effect, often allowing you to see things in a different way or understand problems from a different angle. Of course, perhaps I am not a true skeptic and I research almost everything before dismissing it.

  • Its good to have a healthy dose of skepticism! :)

  • Ouija was invented by a Christian so he claimed . but also is called devil work . i alway thought the art of tarot interesting but i found the i Ching easier to use ,and have been surprised by the quality of answers ,its just if you do or not act on the answers that's the problem with the system . anyway not sure if tarot is meant for me but i can believe it has it's uses for some . but still find it confusing . could not thumbs up this post because it was disabled but good

  • @VenusSatanas In France the Tarot game is called « Le jeu de Tarot » ; « Tarocchi » is the Italian name

  • THANK YOU, finally someone says this...so much bullshit on Tarot on this site, hahaha

  • Thanks, allot of the symbols do come from the Hebrews and Egyptians! But, if you look closely they also have plants and animals in these pics, this is also a relation to humans, yes we all connected to animals and nature. Recently my mother was murdered by her own sun. And holy native messages hit my fan!! Wow!  Sunflowers and Crows! I was her bird! And I think my brother stuffed her like a turkey! It was over greed and material wants! What a jerk!! Michael Lee Neill, don't eat his food!
