Summary

Congratulations!

Thank you for using my Learning the Tarot tutorial! Like The Magician, I am telling you that you now have the power to read tarot and learn about yourself and the Universe and the future. You are the Fool, embarking on your own new journey into discovery. Before the word Fool was destroyed by modern meanings, it was a term of some honor. It was a pure and protected person. Parsifal, the Holy Fool, was the only knight of the entire Round Table that could find the Holy Grail. Be a Fool and feel the power within you!

If you have questions or suggestions, please e-mail me. If this helped you, please let me know. My entire intent is to make tarot easy for others to learn. I know the web hosting service I use offers chat rooms, but I don't think they offer newsgroup postings. If I can find a way to do chat posts or bulletin boards, I will add one so there is a forum for sharing spreads, ideas, and questions. (I don't think a real-time-chat would work – for one thing, my schedule is just too weird!)

Feel free to make use of the extra files I've included, like the information on selecting a deck, or my personal Ten Commandments of Tarot, or the general notes for beginners.

I do have a final few comments. Feel free to read them or ignore them or forget them. Do whatever works for you.

• Tarot is strongest when it is used to explore one's inner Self. Looking into the future is fun and even beneficial, but learning about your Self provides you with even more strength.

• Tarot is powerful. It is not a panacea. Don't grow dependent on it. And be careful not to become addicted to tarot (I've seen it happen – It's no laughing matter).

• If you have strong concerns about a topic, don't do spreads on it over and over and over. Eventually something clicks and everything backfires. If you have strong worries about a topic, it is often best to consult another reader. Even the best psychics I know consult other psychics when they feel their emotions might be clouding their readings.
