Destiny & Tarot
A short overview of my method for reading the Tarot cards: Johanne Bibeau |
|
The Tarot interpretation, like any other technique, becomes more interesting with practice. Like studying a new language, perseverance is essential, and the Tarot symbols are nothing more than the language of our unconscious spirit. The Tarot is an instrument that allows us to access the knowledge stored in our subconscious. It is the words of our intuition, premonitions or dreams. How many times have we heard people say, “I knew it; I had the feeling”? How many times have you known who was calling before you picked up the phone? Most of us have had strong déjà vu experiences, intuitive knowledge, and/or simultaneous thoughts in utterance with others. Where does this come from? One day a friend told me, "I can't explain why, but before answering the telephone, I already know who is calling." Another said, "Through my dreams I know my future. Before falling asleep I ask my unconscious what will happen with this or that situation. I get my answer the day after and remarkably, I live exactly what my dream has predicted." All of us have had an intuition, feeling or precognitive dream that has come to pass. There are no coincidences, weird happenings or accidents. Our future lies in our deepest selves. The synchronized access to this as yet obscured future (the knowledge stored in our subconscious) is revealed as unexpectedly and as fleetingly as seeing a shooting star. It would appear to be neither imagination nor the power of reason. Rather it is simply the future, taking place in the conscious mind, here and now. Albeit ‘unknown’ to us, the future seems to be prearranged, planned and structured. The Tarot can show us what the future holds through its images and allows us to make adjustments. The Tarot constitutes a system of symbolic information through which the subconscious is allowed access. Our future lies in our deepest self. When we consult the Tarot, it tells us about our feelings and worries and gives us answers in these areas as well as to our ambitions. |

The fifty-six cards of the minor arcana depict four persons (king, queen, page and knight) and ten numbers (from ace to ten). They are the swords, pentacles, wands and cups. Their corresponding suits are the spades, clubs, diamonds and hearts, respectively, in the everyday playing card set. The minor arcana cards symbolize the details in a person’s life. They announce meetings that the person consulting the cards will have, events that will affect him/her and speak about one’s immediate circle of family and friends. The minor arcana do not speak about significant happenings in our life. The symbolism of the major arcana is more sophisticated (spiritual, intellectual and practical). The cards are allegorical (i.e. visual metaphors, representing the consultant’s inner journey). They portray the actual state of mind, state of being, personal choices, and ordeals to be overcome. They tell how energies might best be channeled and about the person’s destiny. The major arcana give a simple, easy to understand message that is accurate and insightful. The major arcana contain ten positive cards, five negative cards, and seven neutral cards. Many people believe that the card meanings change according to the card’s position: up or down. Since its inception, Tarot cards have been read only by the meaning of the cards, themselves, regardless of their position. The Tarot is a system of symbolic information into which the subconscious is allowed access. By carefully choosing the cards (allowing your subconscious to guide you with your selection) the symbolic information will be revealed by the Tarot. The cards themselves can be seen as an aid in developing the intuitive parts of our brain. The "future" is captured by our intuition via the cards and presents itself as our forecast or prediction. This vision, in turn offers us the opportunity to exercise the power of free will over our destiny. To learn quickly and insure
you get the correct answers you will find the significance of each card with the other major arcana. Naturally, in the arrangement or
spreads the
combinations are multiple and are adapted to each case (age, sex, profession, etc.)
All the correct answers for every possible card combination are provided in
my books. This is the only system on the market that provides all the
information necessary to become proficient and accurate in a short period of
time. |
