How Tarot Evolved from a Card Game to a Spiritual Tool?

Introduction

Tarot cards have fascinated people for centuries and across most of the continents in the world. This has turned into a spiritual card game that helps members when they are lost in the course of doing life. In today’s world, card reading means competent predictions and assistance in facing the inner self to guide spiritually and emotionally. At the Home of Wellness, tarot reading Dubai is deemed sacred as a method to get closer to one’s unconditional self and become more self-sufficient.

The Origins: A Game for Nobility

The antecedents of card reading lie back in the Renaissance time of the 15th century in Europe though it established itself purely as a card game known in Italy as ‘Tarocchi’. The cards were mostly played for fun, they were among the European nobility more a game than a prayer. The deck containing all the four suits is here just like that in the current playing cards and several special cards called triumphs which later turned into major arcana.

The deck gradually became increasingly complex, and the graphics incorporated in the cards were illustrated, and associated with further connotations. In the course of the Renaissance, too, card reading was employed exclusively as a card game and was still not employed for divinatory or magical purposes. The change from a casual card game to a magical artifact would only be made centuries later.

How It Became an Oracle?

The birth of card reading occurred about the 15th century, but it was in the 18th century that it started traveling through the door of occult and spirituality. This French pastor and Freemason, Antoine Court de Gébelin wrote in a book published in 1781 part of which included the notion of card reading as a source of mystical knowledge, and connected to ancient Egypt. He thought that the pictures depicted on cards preserved the significance and some sort of inner essence. The ideas that Gébelin put forward were not historical but they ignited peoples’ interest to card reading as a sort of divination.

The occultism movement that emerged in the 19th century made card reading even more of a spiritual tool than earlier centuries had done so. A number of spiritualists and mystics began to use cards to seek inspiration and sought to find meaning in card readings by interpreting their symbolism. New decks were developed during this period some of which are still popular today examples include Rider- Waite-Smith decks.

The Structure of a Deck

The structure of the card deck is imperative while analyzing its transformation into a spiritual religious medium. A standard deck consists of 78 cards divided into two groups: Major Arcana decks and Minor Arcana decks.

Major Arcana: These 22 are major Arcanum, or major events of one’s life, spiritual precepts, or karmic dicta. The cards themselves have meaning and represent a specific subject that may bring out aspects of a person’s life.

Minor Arcana: The cards are 56 in number and the primary objective of the Minor Arcana is to depict life events. These cards are categorized into four C courtroom s which signify various aspects in life including feelings, kernel hood, possessions, and wisdom.

Card Reading as a Mean of Counseling

Card reading today is not limited to telling fortunes and anthropologists consider it much more than that. Persons who participate in these sessions can understand their feelings, choices and development. One finds a way to the higher self and one’s internal compass.

One of the most common misunderstandings people have about card reading is that it is a method of divination, or fortune-telling. But card reading does not ‘predict’ destiny in a predetermined way. Instead, the process helps to look at the possible scenario related to a situation, a person’s state of mind, and feelings. By provoking self-awareness and how a person recognizes or perceives him/herself.
