Cartomancy

Cartomancy is a divination practice that involves using a deck of cards, to gain insight and guidance into various aspects of a person’s life or to predict future events. It’s a form of divination that has been practiced for centuries and is often considered a type of psychic or mystical art.  The reader interprets the symbolism, imagery, and arrangement of the cards drawn or laid out in a specific pattern. Different cards are associated with different meanings and concepts, and the way they are combined and positioned can influence the interpretation. The reader might consider the relationships between cards, their positions in the spread, and their orientations (reversed or upright) to provide insights and predictions.

There are several different forms of cartomancy, each using a specific type of card deck and interpretation method. Here are some notable forms of cartomancy:

Tarot Card Reading: This is the most popular forms of cartomancy. The 78-card deck is divided into the Major Arcana and Minor Arcana, each with its own set of meanings. Tarot readers use various spreads and combinations of cards to offer insights into different aspects of a person’s life.

Lenormand Card Reading: The Lenormand deck consists of 36 cards, each depicting a simple image or symbol. This form of cartomancy focuses on clear and direct interpretations, often involving combinations of two or more cards to form a sentence-like statement about a situation.

Oracle Card Reading: Oracle decks come in a wide range of themes and designs. Unlike tarot and Lenormand, oracle cards don’t follow a standardized system. They might have inspirational messages, affirmations, or symbolic imagery that the reader interprets based on their intuition and the theme of the deck.

Playing Card Reading: Using a standard deck of 52 playing cards, this form of cartomancy assigns meanings to each card based on their rank and suit. Different spreads and combinations are used to provide insights into various life situations.

Gypsy Card Reading: Also known as the Kipper cards, this method uses a deck of 36 cards with specific images and meanings. Gypsy card readings often focus on practical matters and day-to-day life situations.

Regular Playing Cards: Similar to playing card reading, this form of cartomancy uses the standard 52-card deck, attributing meanings to each card based on their number and suit. Different spreads and techniques are used to provide guidance and predictions.

Sibilla Card Reading: The Sibilla card deck contains a varied number of cards (often 52 or more) with intricate imagery and symbolism. Readers combine and interpret cards in response to questions or situations.

Destiny Card Reading: This system assigns a specific playing card to each day of the year based on a person’s birthdate. These birth cards are thought to hold insights into a person’s strengths, challenges, and life path.

These are just a few examples of the many different forms of cartomancy. Each form has its own unique characteristics, interpretations, and spreads, and practitioners often choose the one that resonates most with them or the one that fits the type of guidance they seek to offer.
