Tarot reading 101

Tarot is about self-exploration. The meanings need to be put in the context of your own feelings and experiences. From the the Fool card to the World card, reflect and meditate.

Some people say that the world is the extension of the soul, and the characters of the Tarot are actually the expression of inner thoughts.

There are a total of 22 cards from 0 (Fool) to 21 (World), symbolizing the story of a person's self-seeking and growth. The first card, card 0, Fool, packs up the bag and heads forward, implying the beginning of life. After that, it goes through three levels of baptism, the first being the "material" level, from the No. 1 Magician to the No. 7 Chariot. The second tier is the "mind" tier, from the power of 8 to the moderation of 14. The third level is the "Spirit" level, from the 15 card demon to the 21 card world. The smaller cards are larger and easier to understand, and can be divided into four attributes, each consisting of 4 court cards and 10 number cards, making a total of 56 cards. Scepter - Fire, representing passion, action and creativity. The sword - wind, represents wisdom, decisiveness and harm. The Holy Grail - water, representing the mind, feelings and relationships. Money-earth, representing material things, work and enjoyment.

Specifically, it can be read in terms of both semiotics and meaning. The symbols contain stars, numbers, colors, Bible stories and more. The meaning is a little more obvious.

The interpretation of Tarot cards can not only look at keywords or established text descriptions, but more importantly, to observe the connection between the board and the situation. As long as you consciously look for such vague connections, seemingly random cards can also stimulate the inner subconscious of the inquirer and establish a model of the problem or self-psychological. Help think about problems and find inner peace.

Take the following fool's card as an example. The fools are on the cliff and don't know, the left hand is squatting, the right hand is cuddling, and the sun enjoys leisurely. Is the dog on the side reminding him that he is still so happy? This card has very different meanings in different contexts, situations and moods. In the end, is the fool's ignorance ignoring the danger or is he wise to laugh at life? Maybe only the questioner knows it.
