The Tarot is a curious thing. For some it's just a pack of cards with pictures, for others it's a description of the whole universe. Whatever your interest and stage of knowledge about these intriguing cards the symbols of which seem timeless and mired in mystery, this forum is to help open up discussion and trade of ideas on the nature of these cards and their symbols. As a professional reader of the cards for 30 years I have some idea of the best ways to gain great outcomes for people, for their well being, mental and emotional health, and in dealing with the ups and downs of everyday life and helping people to the best healing outcomes for them in times of crisis. In discussions the forum demands respect and a genuine interest in the Tarot out of curiosity, in building knowledge, and, primarily, in good healing outcomes in Tarot reading practice. I will answer questions put to the forum as part of a discussion of the question, not as an answer per-se, as the forum is a round table. Please also remember, one of the chief virutues expressed in the Tarot is the primacy of patience and love for the "other". Be mindful of this when expressing opinions or ideas but also remember another of the Tarot's chief virtues, cleverness and sobriety, that to cut through intellectual conceits one must sometimes use a keen knife, but you had better be a good surgeon too. This is not a forum for doing personal readings, it's always better to do that in a proper, paid, session.
