  • Major Arcana the Following Is the Journey of the Major Arcana
    The Major Arcana The following is the journey of the Major Arcana. We are going to go through them briefly together, but it is also super essential you spend time with this journey over the next week! This course is taught from the Angel Tarot, and you can use the Angel Tarot, or the Archangel Power Tarot, both by Doreen Virtue & Radleigh Valentine. Of course this information can be applied to any card deck! The Major Arcana in general are some very powerful cards! In general they hold greater weight and meaning than the “minor arcana” (which are the other suites that will be discussed). They are also referred to as the trump cards and are the foundational piece of the Tarot deck. They make up the first 21 cards in the deck, and tell a really beautiful story. They are representative of a path to spiritual self awareness and unveil the different stages of life as we move thorough our path. They all hold very deep meaningful lessons. The recording in this week goes through those, and it is also important you listen to your own heart in what they mean to you. If a lot of Major Arcana appear, pay attention to two main points: 1. The person you are reading for may be going through some big life changes. 2. The more that appear the less free will and choice that person may have (but of course there is ALWAYS free will and choice). The Major Arcana cards are all numbered, and in the Angel Tarot are associated with an Angel.

  • Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell a Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series
    Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell A Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series Part IV: The Kings The video length for The Kings became unduly long, so for those who might not be able to sit through and take notes during the entirety of the lecture, here is an illustrated transcript of that lecture. THIS IS THE FOUR-LETTERED DIVINE NAME, Yod He Vau He, and the four letters in Hebrew are (please forgive my mispronunciation here), Yod, which corresponds with the element Fire, He, or the first of two He, which corresponds with the element Water, Vau, which corresponds with the element Air, and the second He, which corresponds with the element Earth. The significance of this concept with the tarot is expounded upon in Tarot of the Bohemians by Papus, and if this interests you, the video, ―Jailbreaking Tarot of the Bohemians‖ will be linked in the description box, but regrettably, closed captioning wasn’t included. In Tarot of the Bohemians, and Crowley reiterates this in his Book of Thoth, the four letters of the Divine Name and four elemental attributions correspond with the four court cards. Yod and Fire correspond with the Kings in tarot, if you’re referencing the titles in the Marseilles or Rider- Waite-Smith, and Knights in the Thoth deck, though there is some debate about this. For now, following the Book of Thoth, we’ll say it’s the Knights. TAROT CARD MEANINGS WITH BENEBELL | VIDEO LECTURE SERIES The first He corresponds with the rank just below the Kings, the Queens. Vau corresponds with the ranking below the Queens, the Knights.

  • Tarot 1 Tarot
    Tarot 1 Tarot The tarot (/ˈtæroʊ/; first known as trionfi and later as tarocchi, tarock, and others) is a pack of playing cards (most commonly numbering 78), used from the mid-15th century in various parts of Europe to play a group of card games such as Italian tarocchini and French tarot. From the late 18th century until the present time the tarot has also found use by mystics and occultists in efforts at divination or as a map of mental and spiritual pathways. The tarot has four suits (which vary by region, being the French suits in Northern Europe, the Latin suits in Southern Europe, and the German suits in Central Europe). Each of these suits has pip cards numbering from ace to ten and four face cards for a total of 14 cards. In addition, the tarot is distinguished by a separate 21-card trump suit and a single card known as the Fool. Depending on the game, the Fool may act as the top trump or may be played to avoid following suit. François Rabelais gives tarau as the name of one of the games played by Gargantua in his Gargantua and Pantagruel;[1] this is likely the earliest attestation of the French form of the name.[citation needed] Tarot cards are used throughout much of Europe to play card games. In English-speaking countries, where these games are largely unplayed, tarot cards are now used primarily for divinatory purposes. Occultists call the trump cards and the Fool "the major arcana" while the ten pip Visconti-Sforza tarot deck.

  • Learning the Tarot (19 Lesson C
    Welcome to Learning the Tarot - my course on how to read the tarot cards. The tarot is a deck of 78 picture cards that has been used for centuries to reveal hidden truths. In the past few years, interest in the tarot has grown tremendously. More and more people are seeking ways to blend inner and outer realities so they can live their lives more creatively. They have discovered in the tarot a powerful tool for personal growth and insight. How Does This Course Work? My main purpose in this course is to show you how to use the cards for yourself. The tarot can help you understand yourself better and teach you how to tap your inner resources more confidently. You do not have to have "psychic powers" to use the tarot successfully. All you need is the willingness to honor and develop your natural intuition. Learning the Tarot is a self-paced series of 19 lessons that begin with the basics and then move gradually into more detailed aspects of the tarot. These lessons are geared toward beginners, but experienced tarot users will find some useful ideas and techniques as well. For each lesson there are some exercises that reinforce the ideas presented. The Cards section contains information about each of the tarot cards. You can refer to this section as you go through the lessons and later as you continue your practice. These are the main features of the course, but there are many other pages to explore here as well. What is the History of this Course? I began writing this course in 1989.

  • Tarot of Marseilles
    TAROT OF MARSEILLES Piatnik-Vienna TAROT OF MARSEILLES GEORG GOTTLOB Piatnik-Wien TAROT TRADITION AND PIATNIK’S TAROT CARDS THE 22 MAJOR ARCANA OF TAROT Tarot consists of pictographic cards, which gave rise to the game of Taroc as it is known in Our days. Tarot cards in Europe emerged apparently as early as in the course of the 14th century partly in Italy and partly in France. There are theories, however, according to which Tarot in fact originated in ancient Egypt, from where it took its course to conquer the world. In many of the Eastern countries, from Egypt through India and to China, one actually may find a number of such figurative images with a likeness to the Tarot figures: even the Gypsies have such cards, which may explain how these were spread in Asia and Europe. It is just as difficult to prove scientifically the genesis of the Tarot cards as to ascertain the origin of the name of tarot. Some scientists think that this name is of French origin, but Gustav Meyrinck, in his book ‘The Golem’ is of the opinion ‘[...] that aroc or Tarot has the same meaning as the Hebrew word ‘Torah’ (the Law), or the name may be connected with the ancient 3 Egyptian word ‘Taruth’ (the One who is consulted), or it may come from the word ‘Tarisk’ of the ancient Zend language, which means “I demand the answer.“ The Tarot cards are used for “play as well as — and this is more often the case — for “fortune telling’. A packet consists of 78 cards: 22 of the major Arcana (= the great mysteries) which are the same as the trumps in the game of Taroc, and of the 56 minor Arcana (the lesser mysteries).
