Cartomancy Meanings - Playing Card Tarot Meanings

How to use the 52 playing cards in tarot 

If you have a set of playing cards, you may wish to carry out a tarot reading with your cards. This is where tarot readings all first began.  Depending upon surrounding cards, Court Cards often at times stand for people. Such meanings are in the portions entitled ' Generally' connected to the card. The art of cartomancy or fortune telling using cards is super old. Ancient cultures all over the world once used them in the search of the future or to get answers for their problems, and this will make you go ahhh -  were accepted by both the Church and the State as oracles of wisdom up till the Middle Ages. What I am saying here is that this is very, very old.

So, in old manor houses in the UK, using playing cards is all about knowing our future. The work of C. G. Carl Jung demonstrated that a certain psychic connection exists. Jung called these 'synchronistic events 'and it was the discovery which prompted him to look into the mystery as well as wisdom of the cards and other divination, such as the I Ching to the tea leaves. I like using playing cards for tarot sometimes. 

The playing cards are split into four as follows

• Hearts (Cups): This represents love, emotions, relationships, and emotions in life.
• Clubs (Wands): Drawing these mean creativity, energy, and action. 
• Diamonds (Pentacles): Money and material wealth, finances, and physical well-being. 
• Spades (Swords): This is about communication, intellect, thoughts, and decision-making. 
• The Ace of Clubs: Spring 
• The Ace when Hearts: Summer 
• The Ace of Spades: Autumn 
• The Ace of Diamonds: Winter 

My thoughts on using playing cards as tarot cards

Just like the tarot cards the court cards (King, Queen, and Jack) represent people in life, personalities, or energies, much like the tarot. The red cards in my view (hearts and diamonds) are represented by people with blond hair and the spades and clubs represent someone with brown hair. The numerical cards (Ace through 10) are about the progression of life's cycles, from beginnings to the ends. For instance, the seven of Hearts focuses on emotional responses, while the King of Spades suggests a man with brown hair, over the age of 40 with strong intellectual authority. I will go into this a bit deeper here.

Divination is, at its root is about knowledge. Knowledge is usually thought of in two distinct ways. We produce knowledge by merging symbols in patterns when it comes to cards. The harder the pattern, the more complicated the knowledge. Some patterns might not be of any benefit to us by any means, but they might be valuable beyond their use. For instance, a painter may create patterns which aren't useful, but might be regarded as beautiful things, and when they come together it means something. Patterns are helpful when it tells us one thing about some other patterns of symbols which we observe, when it anticipate how those patterns will fall away and describe their organization.

An equation representing the movements of the planets is helpful, since it enables us to compute the orbits of objects which we encounter outside of ourselves. We view this sort of pattern-making or knowledge to be "scientific." A pattern which relates symbols to various other symbols is "aesthetic." It brings about some sense of attractiveness in our own minds, even though it might tell us truths or even make predictions, all those truths aren't observer-independent and those predictions aren't unchangeable. These patterns are produced by art, music and poetry.

In this particular category I love cartomancy. Magic blurs the line between external and inner experience, between conscious awareness and obvious outside matter. Hence, magic provides one other way of organizing knowledge without losing the apparent advantages of scientific reasoning. Magic is really a case of thinking flexibly. Critics of divination occasionally point out that humans identify patterns in material, and there's absolutely no assurance that such a pattern is "really there." For instance, from a single perspective, a crater on the moon looks startlingly similar to a face (I am sure you saw that when you was a child). 

The photographs from this formation brought about debate regarding whether the formation was an artifact, although subsequent photographs have revealed that there is nothing alarming about the formation from many other angles. We love to see patterns and we observe even patterns which aren't actually there. For instance, we do not even need to take a look at the moon. we are able to see a whale swimming in the clouds, but it is not there.

Just what does "not really there" mean? For one thing, the term "pattern" only has significance when it's applied to things that we really go through. Till we find a pattern in a lot of stuff, a pattern does not form. Detecting a pattern is making one, therefore any pattern we see by definition is actually there. There might not be a face on the Moon or a whale in the sky, but when I spot one, I could take a photo of this. 

The existence of a pattern doesn't always mean that an intelligence has put it there, or even that it's an artifact, or even it signifies nothing. Nonetheless, the fact that we notice patterns tells us a lot about our minds. I am sure you will agree that everyone of us notices patterns and a sense of meaningfulness. This is exactly what psychologists refer to as apophenia, the understanding of meanings in random data.
