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.

Oracle Cards

Oracle cards are a type of divination tool used for gaining insight and guidance. Unlike tarot cards, which have a standardized set of 78 cards with specific meanings, oracle cards can have any number of cards with a wide range of themes and artwork.

Oracle cards are typically used for personal growth and self-reflection, and they can be used for a variety of purposes, such as gaining insight into a situation, finding inspiration, or receiving guidance on a particular issue.

Tarot Card Superstitions

Tarot Card Readings
Superstitions

Tere are many superstitions and traditions surrounding the practice of reading the Tarot.  These are the views of a longtime Tarot Reader, and may not be shared by all Tarot Readers.

 
The first practice starts with getting the deck, itself. It is customary for the Tarot Cards to be given as a gift. Buying a deck for myself will give me pretty cards, but without influences. My first deck was the traditional Rider-Waite deck, given to me by my boyfriend’s mother. The cards came in a container with a little book full of definitions and spreads. This is still the deck I use to this day, and get the best results with. I have been given other decks, and I have purchased some.


The one I purchased was gorgeous, colorful and well thought out.  However, using them for readings did not work for me.  Most Tarot Readers readily give decks to others.  I have given that colorful deck away and many more Tarot decks over the years.  This spirit of giving and sharing gives good energy to the cards.


The next tradition is card protection.  The Tarot cards are very absorbent of surrounding energies.  Many superstitions and methods surround protecting the deck from interfering vibes.  One method is wrapping the cards in a silk cloth when not in use.  Another is keeping decks away from electronic devices to avoid EMF exposure.  And lastly, guarding against negative people and their energies around the cards. 


The third tradition is cleansing the deck.  Many times after a reading the cards may feel unclean, as if the energies from the reading are still lingering in the deck.  A good shuffle will cleanse out those vibes.  I like to smear the cards all over the table and swish them around when they feel especially tainted.  Every month, many readers place their cards outside under the full moon.  Along with charging crystals, the full moon energy charges the cards with purifying energy.  Another method popular with readers is using smoke to clean the cards.  I will light some incense, and hover the deck over the smoke, shuffling them slightly.  The smoke will purify and energize the deck.


Every Tarot Reader adapts their traditions and superstitions, which are just as unique as they are.  It takes several years to develop skills in reading, plus an innate gift of powerful intuition to understand the messages in the cards.

Tarot Card Readings

Tarot Card Readings

A tarot card deck is assembled up of 78 cards. Each card has its importance. Although each psychic has its implication for the cards, the meanings are very similar. Tarot cards are not planned to make life choices for someone. However, they are created to give an understanding into situations. When you get a reading with tarot cards, remember to keep an open mind and understand that tarot reading are there for guidance. When you ask for a tarot reading, you are looking for insight into options. You must feel comfortable and connected to the psychic to get a clear and accurate reading. If the psychic cannot correlate with you, it will be challenging for the psychic to read for you. When asking the tarot cards your questions, keep in mind that issues like, “Who am I bearing to Marry” will be oppugning to answer, instead of questions like, “What can I do to find my significant other.” Again, tarot cards are not there to make your life choice for you; they are there to help guide you with your decision.

Most gifted psychics give positive readings, and their clients should leave a reading, feeling uplifted and positive. When getting your tarot cards to read, think of it this way, the tarot cards are YOUR inner voice trying to communicate with you. Tarot cards are just a tool that some psychics use to bring clarity and understanding to a situation and to help leave you better informed before deciding that you may be anxious about it. So, if you are thinking about a tarot card reading, check around, the psychics that jump out at you, are usually the psychics that can connect with you the most. The right psychic will have you leaving the reading, and coming back to them telling them, everything or mostly everything the cards read to you, came true. My advice to you, be patient after the reading, as the psychic before leaving the reading, how long until the reading manifests. When that time frame passes, the psychic’s tarot reading should be accurate and help you feel secure in your decisions.

Let’s see what the cards have in store for you.
