Divination
by contrast, is the art of accessing information, wisdom, and advice from the invisible realm—known variously as the ethereal plane, the astral realm, the unseen, or the divine.
A Tarot is a tool for understanding the
language of this realm as it applies to our own life circumstances and development as spiritual beings.
Tarot experience can indeed be empowering, as it brings
the clarity to confusing situations and shows us that we have the ability to shape our future based on the choices we make in the present
Yet the Tarot has no single author or “original” deck. It is a divinatory art that was
collaboratively over centuries, through the contributions of many people.
Who, or what is the guiding intelligence determining which cards you draw from the deck? Is there some kind of specific magical force inherent in the cards themselves?
The truth is, no one can answer that question for you, because it depends on your individual beliefs and the unique way in which you understand and interpret the divination experience.
The cards can indeed behave in some seemingly magical ways, such as
when a single card jumps out of the deck while you’re shuffling, or when you pull a series of cards that are all astonishingly accurate to your situation. But—and this is important to know—you are also part of the equation. ultimately define the source from which the information comes, you yourself are connected to that source. You are tapping into the wisdom of your own higher self, in conjunction with any other energies assisting in the reading.
