A Little About Tarot Cards and Tarot Readings
Written by psychiclineadmin on February 25, 2009
Most of us have heard of Tarot Cards but may not fully appreciate their history and current usage. In European countries, there are a number of tarot card games for instance. The cards used in the games have many different designs, patterns and colors and are quite distinct from those used in psychic tarot readings. The game cards can vary depending on the particular region in which the players are located. Some of the standards however, are a deck of 78 cards which consist of four suits of fourteen cards, twenty one trump cards and a fool card.
Of course, many of us are more used to thinking of tarot cards for insight into one’s future and there are millions of people who have taken advantage of this use of the cards in helping them make important decisions in their lives. The cards used for these psychic readings are rather different from the game cards. Modern tarot card decks differ in their colors or symbols. However, the most common deck in the English speaking world is the Rider-Waite Tarot. The majority of the modern variations of the tarot deck in fact are based on the Rider-Waite Tarot.
The modern deck used for psychic readings can be divided into 2 parts. There is the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana. The major Arcana includes the trump cards which are very symbolic and provide the deeper, more profound answers that you may be seeking from a tarot reading. These cards are scene based and are labeled with both a roman numeral and a name. The Minor Arcana on the other hand are 56 cards that can provide answers to more immediate questions you may have about daily activities or events. These cards also consist of a roman numeral and a name for each that your reader will use to address your questions.
If you want to learn more about the cards before obtaining a reading, there are a number of very useful tarot card tutorials that you can find online. In addition, before you choose a tarot card reader, be sure to do your research so that you can find the right psychic reading that will provide the insight you are seeking.

A few Tools of the Trade for Psychic Readings-tarot cards, runes, and crystal balls
Written by psychiclineadmin on November 19, 2008
If you’re new to psychic readings, you may at times be overwhelmed by the different terms associated with psychic readings. And if you’ve done any research at all, you’ve probably noticed that there are several different types of readings. While this can be confusing at first glance, it makes more sense once you delve a little deeper into the details.
First and foremost, the end goal of a psychic is basically the same – to help you gain insight, get answers, or provide positive guidance that will help you achieve your goals. That part isn’t in question. The difference is in the tools that the psychic uses in order to provide guidance to you.
Probably the most familiar of these tools is the crystal ball. With it, your psychic will read your energy by gazing into the crystal ball. It allows them to see your aura and therefore provide you with guidance. It’s a tool most often used by clairvoyants: Those that can see clearly. Clairvoyants, as a whole, practice the art of scrying, or the art of ‘seeing’, and will often use objects other than the crystal ball. Some of these may include pools of water, crystals, or mirrors for instance.
Another tool that’s often used are runes. These are typically stones with symbols and letters from ancient, usually Germanic languages. The reader will use these symbols to perform your reading. The order and groupings of these rune symbols are what the psychic uses to gain insight.
Tarot Cards are also on the list tools at the psychic’s disposal. With them, a psychic interprets the arrangement and order of the cards that the subject has laid out. While these can be used on their own, they are often used as a secondary method to hone in on more exact answers.
So as you can see, there are many tools available that can be used to help the reader provide guidance and insight. There is no one tool that is better than any other; the usefulness of each one is dependent upon the person using it. Remember the old adage, ‘It’s a poor craftsman that blames his tools?’ The opposite is also true. It’s a great craftsman that isn’t completely dependent upon them.
