Hey everyone, it’s your boy, back again with another experiment. Today’s topic might sound a bit spooky, but it’s something I’ve been super curious about: Is tarot evil? I’ve always seen tarot cards portrayed in movies as these dark, mysterious things, and frankly, it made me a little nervous to even touch them.
So, I decided to dive in and figure this out for myself. First, I started with some good old-fashioned internet research. I typed “is tarot evil” into the search bar and was immediately bombarded with a ton of articles and forum posts. Some folks were saying it’s the devil’s work, while others were like, “Nah, it’s just a tool for self-reflection.” I felt confused, to be honest, with all these conflicting views.
After reading a bunch, I learned that tarot cards originated way back in 15th-century Europe, and they weren’t even used for fortune-telling at first! They were actually playing cards. It seemed that the whole “evil” association came much later. This was a relief, kind of like finding out that monster under your bed is just a pile of laundry.
Next, I decided to get my hands on a deck. I bought a beginner-friendly set online. When it arrived, I took a deep breath and opened the box. Honestly, they just looked like pretty pictures on cardstock. I spent some time just looking at each card, getting familiar with the images and symbols. It felt less scary. This process was more chill than I thought it would be.
Then, I tried a simple three-card spread, which I found in the little guidebook that came with the deck. It was supposed to represent past, present, and future. I shuffled the cards, focusing on a question about my blog. Pulled three cards, and laid them out. The interpretations in the guidebook were interesting, they gave me some things to think about regarding my past approach to blogging, my current situation, and some potential future directions. It felt more like a conversation with myself than some dark magic ritual.
I continued to do a little bit with my own tarot cards every day. I even started journaling about my readings. I just wrote down what cards I pulled, what I thought they meant, and how they related to my life. It became a part of my morning routine, like having coffee, but it just felt different from my previous morning routines.
Through this whole experiment, I realized that tarot isn’t inherently evil at all. It’s just a tool, and like any tool, it all depends on how you use it. For me, it’s become a way to tap into my intuition and reflect on my life. I actually look forward to my tarot time each day. It’s become a source of comfort and guidance.
So, if you’re curious about tarot, I say go for it! Don’t let the myths and misconceptions scare you away. It might just surprise you. Do your own research, find a deck that speaks to you, and most importantly, have fun with it. It’s a journey of self-discovery, and it’s definitely not as scary as it might seem.
