Do Tarot Cards Readings Actually Work?

By Samantha Sanderson

Tarot is a divinatory art that combines the wisdom of the ancient Egypt, pagan Celtic traditions and Kabala elements to reveal the past, the present and the future. Tarot cards readings provide access to high levels of awareness, revealing the truth. The more you believe in Tarot, the more answers you receive. The tarot is rich in symbolism.

Tarot cards help people to learn new things about themselves. They can discover hidden abilities or find answers to some questions. The Tarot deck consists of four suits along with twenty two picture cards numbered from one through to twenty-two. The four suits of the Minor Arcana are Plates, Swords, Wands and Cups, which match the four elemental tools.

The origins of Tarot are not known. The predecessors of the playing cards we use today first migrated to Europe from Islamic countries around the 14th century. It is believed that the tarot cards became strongly connected to fortune telling in the 1700s.

This esoteric science offers an analytical precision of symbols, being the most perfect means of divination if it's used properly. Tarot cards readings are very precise and always reveal hidden thoughts and experiences.

Each card has a unique meaning, symbolizing various aspects of life. The most effective way to understand the meaning of the cards is to study the cards themselves, as they represent the concept being expressed. When the concept is translated into everyday life, the meaning becomes real and you will never forget it. In general, most divinatory practices are based on spiritual messages.

The Celtic Cross is one of the most common tarot card layouts. It doesn't offer answers to specific situations, but reflects our thoughts and personality. The 12 Card layout allows you to track cause and effect chains much more effectively than the Celtic Cross, offering clear answers to your questions. Therefore, it is suitable for any situation. Tarot cards readings will help you find your way in life as long as you interpret their meaning in the right way.
