What the Tarot is used for.

1. Guidance... The cards are meant to guide you. Meaning that they are not there to create destiny. They are there to guide you to it. So yes they can see an outcome. But you are are in control of taking action. This is goals in every aspect of your life.

2. Energy... Many readers claim to give you dates. I find that this gives false hopes. Energy works at it is own pace. Other things factor in on when you are meant to have things. That falls with divine timing as well as your own efforts. Putting a date on energy is not something I do is accurate. Turning out an exact date that is wrong could distract you from pushing for it just a little longer for success later.

3. How to take and understand your reading. Just because you find that the answer is not what you want to hear. The best advice is to figure out what you can do to fix the block. Or problem. For example a relationship that is heading in a direction of failing. It is better to see what you can do to adjust things to grow together instead of just being upset that is set to fall apart. Taking the advice and being active with the direction is the best way to handle advice rather positive or negative.

4. Greed... When consulting the cards for advice. Questions like lucky lottery numbers or winnings are just bad energy. My advice stay away from using spiritually as a tool to advance in materialistic gain. However career or questions about work or how to decrease debt are very heathy.

5. Broad questions.. When wording your questions think smaller. Instead of saying what is my future? A better question is what can I expect for the future in my current job. Also if you are asking about another person I require to have the first name of all parties. This makes it easier to focus. We all are surrounded by many others and the energy of them can interfere with the reading.

6. Be patient. Many times I have seen clients worry about the outcome and not focus on the journey. Worrying about the results is wasted energy. A better use of time is pushing forward towards your goals. Energy rewards energy.

7. Connection.. It is important to have connection to your question. For instance really care and be open to your answers. Lazy or resistance to your readings causes blocks. Making less deeper insight to emerge.

8. Protection... No need to worry about what has been emailed. Nobody sees your reading except from whom you choose to share it with. Nor do I sell or use your emails. This is like medical records. It is for you only.

9. Evil... There are some people that have been influenced that the tarot is evil and is against god. That is false. God is what created energy and self purpose. You are meant to achieve your purpose in life. A guide is not evil dark aimed to bring harm. Tarot is written to make you stronger and give you insight on blocks you have to face so you do not quit or give up on your path.

10. Blocks... Blocks are not to stop you. But make you stronger and keep you from getting the wrong thing. Or something you are not currently ready for them. Instead of giving up on a direction choose to adjust and grow.

Tarot Builder & Spiritual Whispers

This is an introduction to the Tarot cards and how it can be helpful in your life. Everything that is existing in life is made of of energy. Energy moves and creates. The job of the 78 card deck is to expose the energy surrounding you and your current issues. There is a lot of misconceptions in this practice. The tarot cards do give you guidance by focusing in on a selected question. They will reveal any obstacles as well as help you can you on the way. The path through life is full of blocks. Those blocks make is very difficult to achieve or goals. Sometimes leading us to astray. With help from this generous honest deck you are able to see a possible outcome. I say possible because you are in charge of your life choices if you decide to abandon your plan the outcome of course would change. Because there is no concept of time in energy. Time frames are very difficult to predict. I have seen readings take days or sometimes years to produce the outcome. Beliefs, attitudes, emotions and fears determine our behavior and our lives. The cards reflect these truths, rhythms and patterns at play in our questions and offer us a mirror of the possibilities within. When consulting the cards it is important to make your question as responsible and as empowering as you can. You want to be in control of your own life so your questions need to be insightful for the path you need to take. Putting the outcome in your hands makes you in charge of the outcome. Anytime you want anything in life you need to put in the effort to get it. No evil will come to you in this practice nor will you be punished in the after life for using the tarot as a guide. Look for tarot to expose your path instead of the lucky lottery numbers or the name of your soul mate. It is an alternative way of helping your life so it is normal to be afraid of what the cards may tell you. I promise the news is more interesting and useful over scary and threatening. If it your first reading ever and your are hesitant feel free to chat with me or ask me about what expect or ask. This experience should bring you comfort not fear. Tarot has been around for many centuries and sure to be around many more. What was once looked at as witchcraft is now available in your local bookstores. With so many things going on in each of our lives, It's easy to start feeling lost and begin to doubt oneself. Now you can do something to change that. Reaching out isn't a sign of weakness, But rather a sign of strength. I am not here to tell you what you want to hear. but to guide you down a path that leads to a more fulfilling and productive life in achieving your fullest potential.

What is the Tarot? we see decks of these colorful cards in many places in today's society. They

turn up as props in movie and television productions. Their images are sometimes found in the video images created for contemporary music. The Tarot is clearly part of our society yet it is not well understood. There are popular myths and numerous misconceptions. Some believe it can guide your future -

There are those who believe the Tarot is clearly the work of the devil -to that of the Christian’s Satan which was, perhaps true in part of the symbolism of the card by that name.

Is the Tarot divination? In the sense that the symbols and archetypes allow one’s internal

divinity to emerge through the cards the answer is ‘yes.’ Does the Tarot represent ‘fortune telling?’

There’s a vague negative connotation around that phrase. Fortune telling, is often used in a

demeaning way to diminish the value of the Tarot. Because my own tendency would be to avoid that phrase when thinking of the Tarot. And so, what is fortune telling? It is using the tools in particular Tarot Cards of divination in a precognitive manner: to indicate the likelihood of specific events to happen. So in that sense the Tarot may well be used for the telling of one’s fortune.

I knew of the Tarot for many years, but it was always one of those odd things. I would see a

deck now and then but discard it as it was far too foreign to me and so I gave it little thought. The Tarot was something I would see now and then in a movie or some comedy programme on tv which always relegated Tarot to the realm of ‘fortunetelling.’ It took me many years to realize that I had embarked upon a spiritual journey and that the Tarot was one of the many valuable tools which would become part of my life.

Upon learning about the tarot I hope to pass on my interpretation of the Tarot with Kabbalah and the influences it can have on your journey, you know, people often volunteer comments about their own experiences and feelings regarding the Tarot and I have encountered many misconceptions about the Tarot. There are those who have tried it once and panicked. There are those who purchase a pretty deck but are unable to make it ‘work.’

So What is the Tarot? There are so many answers found in so many books yet each of us must answer that question personally. When I first encountered the Tarot in the mid-1980s my understanding of it was very different than it is today.

My own spiritual journey took a major step in life when, in the early 1970s and without

knowing the Tarot, I stepped off the precipice of my secure life and, like the Fool, plunged myself into an abyss. For the first time in my life I was now in unfamiliar territory which when you study all aspects of Esoterism you realise it will take an eternity to absorb all the literature and read all the books when really once you know you, the mysteries of the occult meaning hidden are within each of us.......we are the spirits and the messengers or the vessle of spirituial communication or in a word we are all our own God our own creator our own destiney, we are the ones who control our futures.

The tarot with the interpreter merely suggests.

From a teen I yearned for knowledge of the occult and now some 40 years on still study.

I attempted on my own to experience trance-like states or meditation and, as the years passed, learned to understand the precognitive nature of my dreams. My path was circuitous, from the parapsychology interests of the 1970s to the influence of the popular stars of my youth who encouraged us to explore Buddhism, to learn how to transcend life’s woes. .

My first serious study of the Tarot was in itself confusing . I had much to learn that I felt like a fledgling, not knowing how to spread my wings, just jumped in with both feet blindfolded. Then, realised we are all the attributes of the Major Arcana, we simply take the journey and make decisions weather or not they are right or wrong.

Tarot and Tomorrow

I still find it very strange how a deck of cards can have so much bearing on an individuals life. I started my interest in the Tarot over 25 years ago and have only ever continued looking forward to trying to understand the symbolic meanings that stand before me. Having numerous decks from the famed Rider Waite to a more complicated Thoth deck, with meanings and interpretations all relevant to each other or should I say with the 1 billion different interpretations you can have from the normal 78 cards.

Hope I'm not boring you at this stage! Like I said my first initial interest in Tarot came during the Summer of 1980 when with a group of friends we plagued Blackpool Pleasure Beach looking for the thrill of the rides and the usual things associated with the Blackpool cult. It was then I like so many thousands before me saw the sign Gypsy Rose lee "Fortune Teller". Well with my long standing curiosity of the occult I have always had from an early age (tell you about that in a mo) I took the plunge and paid my money.

Having leapt into the small cabin with very worn curtains, beads and smell of I think rosemary to be met by an elderly woman of perhaps gypsy background and having all types of symbolic trophies about her small abode.

Sit down Sir, she spoke quietly! and politely asked what it was I was looking for, so I told her I would like a card reading. and without volunteering a question as such sat back .........it was at this moment that from out of the blue I felt a shudder or energy rush over me and so wanted to know more........she continued and told me I was very spiritual and would do great things, but had to take the journey of the fool to understand my destiny. As you can imagine I thought what a load of old rubbish until about 5 years later when reading the tarot for others did I realise that I really was the Fool and that my life and every one elses is likened with the tarot or Major Arcana

I still have the memories from that encounter with the fortune teller and the original deck I purchased some 5 years after the reading and to this day use regularly.

So, 25 years on my father and other members of my family, said one day in the Summer of 2009, why don't you do a course on Tarot (out of the blue) as you've always had an interest in it, do something about it, you can't continue being a builder and landscaper when your 70, eh ? where did that come from. He was right, I went home and searched for a reputable tarot teacher with reasonable rates. It was then that I found tarot Professionals in Cumbria and run by a guy called Marcus Katz and Lass called Tali. (now Tarot Professionals Ltd, both directors)

I was impressed with the package they offered and enrolled on the Tarot for beginners and then the intermediate and followed on with the advanced, I gained so much and they helped me piece together Tarot and the symbolic meanings and believe me so much more...............and so now I am a tarot Professional and give about 20% of my life to Tarot and Kabbalah (Please note that I am not a religeous person or practice christianity or even Judaism) I am my own icon or idol.
