Tarot Cards: How They Have Been Used Throughout History
Tarot cards are a deck of symbolic cards that have been used for centuries to answer questions and provide guidance. They originated in the 15th century, but it is believed they were based on much older traditions. The Tarot was originally used in Italy as a game similar to poker or bridge, but with deep spiritual meaning. It wasn’t until the 18th century that Tarot cards began seeing widespread use as a tool for divining the future and understanding one’s purpose in life. In this video, you will learn about how Tarot cards have been used throughout history and what their origins are.
Roman Origins
The first known record of Tarot cards used in divination date back to the 15th century, when they were used in Italy. The game was played with a deck of cards very similar to what we have today. Worth noting is that early Tarot cards were not the illustrated cards used today. Instead, they were more like a regular playing card deck that had different symbols on each card. The major arcana cards that we are used to today did not come into existence until later in the 18th century. The origin of the cards themselves is a bit of a mystery. One theory is that they were brought to Italy from the Middle East during the Crusades. There is also evidence that the cards were created in China, then came to Europe or were created by Europeans who saw them.
18th-century France
The first known use of Tarot cards for divination occurred in the 18th century when French occultists began using them. One of the first uses was to foretell the French Revolution. The cards were trendy during the 19th century when they were used for many different purposes. They were used by scientists and philosophers, who were fascinated by the mystical and symbolic nature of the cards. The cards were also popular among the general public, who used them for fortune-telling and as a way to access their subconscious. The popularity of Tarot cards continued into the 20th century. Still, they saw a decline in the 1930s when other forms of fortune-telling became more popular, such as using the palm of the hand or astrology.
20th Century Revival
During the 20th century, there was a revival of interest in the Tarot, particularly in the United States, where there was a growing interest in all things metaphysical and spiritual. In the 1970s, there was another revival of interest in the Tarot, particularly among feminists and the counterculture movement. This revival was largely due to the writings of feminist author and activist Mary Daly, who wrote about the importance of the Tarot in her work “Beyond God the Father”. The growing interest in the feminist movement drew many people to the Tarot because they saw the cards as a way to connect with a female spirituality that mainstream religion had largely ignored.
In Conclusion
The Tarot is used by people all over the world today, though the ways in which people use them vary greatly. Some people still use the cards for fortune-telling, while others use them for self-development, creativity, and meditation. The cards can be an extremely powerful tool for accessing creativity because they allow us to tap into our subconscious mind. People can also use the cards to help them with decision-making, planning, and creative problem-solving. The best way to start learning how to use the cards is to get a deck and start reading the instructions that come with it. You can also find instructional books and online tutorials that will help you learn how to use the cards for various purposes.
