I'm encountering more and more people who oppose relating/applying Tarot meanings with Playing Cards. What are your thoughts about blending the two?
I feel like since there is a related numerology and suit between the two (specifically when using at least the 52 card deck) that it should work well together.

Re: Tarot+Playing Card
All divination comes from you.
Use the tarot, use poker cards, write down the alphabet on 22 pieces of papers and interpret that.
OR!
The tarot represents archetypes and/or a fix system and you should really work inside that system.
Third.
There are many different playing cards, I have 4 different decks in the library. Not all are close to the tarot.

Have you ever tried that before? How has it worked for you? (No disagreement here,I'm just asking about the 26 english alphabet recommendation)Desecrated wrote:All divination comes from you.

I may be a bit dull on my history, but is not the 52 card deck a historical relative to the minor arcana of the tarot? If so, this relative has borrowed attributes from the system.Desecrated wrote: OR!

Yes, there are. I apologize for my not specifying.Desecrated wrote:

And yes it works just fine. works with any alphabet or any symbol.

The 52 is very close to the minor arcana. But they have been cross breaded. playing cards had less or more then 52 back in the days- Tarot cards had less or more then 78.
I have a german Tarock deck with 54 cards using hearts, bells, acorns and leaves. Same system, different symbol. But very similar to tarot in that sense that it has 4 court cards for every suit,
I also have a Killelek 38 cards. Only two suits of 19 cards each 0-10 then 8 court cards. Works nothing like tarot.
The old catholic bible had 73 books so the 56 cards and 22 arcana minus the the 4 Paiges and the devil card makes 73 cards.
Current bible have 66. 66 = 22x3

Re: Tarot+Playing Card
Okay...so like...that would make for one hell of a divination system...I may just take out the devil card and pages just to see how it would work. It sounds like it would have the potential to work like the Grand Jeu (never really used it) just with the catholic bible....Desecrated wrote:The old catholic bible had 73 books so the 56 cards and 22 arcana minus the the 4 Paiges and the devil card makes 73 cards.

Re: Tarot+Playing Card
I read Tarot and playing cards, usually together, but the method I use for playing cards isn't associated with the Tarot. It has it's own set of imagery and meanings. There isn't really any reason not to go about it however you want, though. They're pictures on pieces of paper. Neither is sacrosanct.

Ok,.. you made me look up a word.
sac·ro·sanct
/ˈsakrōˌsaNG(k)t/
adjective: sacrosanct
(especially of a principle, place, or routine) regarded as too important or valuable to be interfered with.
