A quick note about my use of tarot cards, because I know it seems to go against my personal lack of belief in anything system.

I tend to draw a card each day as I have my first coffee, particularly if I have a question I’m pondering. Obviously I don’t expect the card to magically channel mystic forces to provide me the wisdom of the universe, although it would be handy, I’m just looking for a fresh way of looking at a question.

As a prompt for problem solving, or deeper thought on a subject they can be surprisingly effective. Quite often in the past they have allowed me to look at a situation I find myself in a different light.

So definitely not magic, just another tool to break me out of fixed ways of thinking. Though if pushed I will admit that occasionally I’ve used them to make a decision, sort of like a complicated flip of the coin, because sometimes you need a quick decision.
