THE ORIGINS OF THE TAROT CARDS

The origins of the tarot cards are as mysterious as the cards themselves. When they were first used and for what purpose remains vauge and elusive.  It is thought that they had their origins in India, Egypt or China, but the truth is not really known.  The first factual evidence of the tarot cards are found in the second half of the fifteenth century and were painted in Italy.  But even the existence of these 78 beautifuly painted cards does not really tell us anything with certainty.  What is the fascination that still holds us today?  The cards evoke memories and half-known associations with legend, myth and folklore and they imply some kind of story or secret which cannot be totally formulated.
In my experience the tarot is just another way of gaining valuable insight into our journey through life.  The cards provide a bridge between the conscious and the unconscious and connect us to our potential, strengths and weaknesses.
The tarot is a book of knowledge and wisdom portrayed in symbols and pictures.  When you chose a card it somehow reflects the inner image of yourself and an outer experience that has relevance in your life at the time.  There is nothing sinister or frightening within the tarot deck. Using the cards will show us that everyone's journey is the same and yet at the same time quite different.  The ultimate message of the cards is that we need to blend and unite every aspect of our personality, the good and the bad.  Working with the mystic symbolism of the tarot cards helps us to become more self-aware and enables us to make informed choices within our life.

I have been teaching the tarot at Reading Adult and Community College for the past six years.  My classes are very successful and my students are always motivated and inspired to continue working with the tarot.  I also offer tarot workshops and classes for private groups.
