The tarot allows for a mapping of the subconscious. It is not a divinatory tool—it cannot tell you the future, but rather how your shadow is pointed towards it. The cards encourage you to ask yourself the questions you know deep down need to be confronted if you want more control of your future. Though some treat the cards with supernatural veneration, they are no different than yoga—somewhat arcane in origin, but deeply useful in everyday secular life. The tarot is not fatalistic—it is meant to restore your control.
