The origins of the Tarot are so veiled in the mists of time that it is only
natural for myths and legends to surround it
There are 78 cards in the Tarot, of which 56 (the minor arcana) are equally
divided into four suits. They are followed by 22 cards (the major arcana, displayed on left)
that depict symbolic figures, elements in nature, the experiences of Man
in his spiritual journey, his hopes and fears, his joys and sorrows.. The
wise men and seers through whom the Tarot is believed to have been transmitted
over more than the last seven centuries were thoroughly versed in the
astrological, numerological, and Kabalistic teachings of the ancients,
and all these influences are reflected in the cards.
Most of us are interested in character analysis, glimpses of the future,
solutions to immediate dilemmas - all of which we can seek in the Tarot.
The truest claim made is that the Tarot is a symbolic record of human
experience.. Through deeply rooted mystic powers, the cards accomplish
miracles of psychological insight, wise counsel and accurate divination. |

Palmistry is a way of interpreting the shape of the hand and the lines
of the palm so that the character and possible life experiences of an
individual can be projected or "read."
The modern theory is that the lines of the hand represent a graphic shorthand
of the circuits of the brain.
The basic principles of palmistry can open up a whole new world, a different
perspective and new vistas. This knowledge can be used to foster regeneration
and growth, and can be used as a springboard for connecting with new people
you meet. Starting a conversation about the lines of the hand is a pleasant
icebreaker for deeper discussion.
