Tarot is a study in the science of Hermetic principles (Universal Law) – based on a belief in a Greater Power Consciousness.  The Tarot is used as a tool for revealing informational guidelines as to how well you are navigating through the specific circumstance in your life. They work as a marker system which consists of symbolism used for directional guidance so as to show the way to maintaining mindful and  masterful consciousness. I use the Waite deck which is an in depth study of Divine Law relative to the contrasts that occur in societal beliefs. Their imagery and symbolism are based on Christian Orthodoxy (Biblical Doctrine). They work as a de-coding instrument which demonstrates how our intellectual/emotional development is effecting our Spiritual Awakening (or deafening). There is an uninformed belief surrounding Tarot Cards, that they are an un-Godly tool of some sort, however, the Tarot theosophy is actually founded in Christendom. A few keen examples of this would be; The Emperor as a depiction of the masculine Power of The God Head, Alpha, while the Empress is the feminine aspect of God, the Divine Mother, Omega. And then the ‘Wheel of Fortune’, a card which depicts the Book of Ezekiel from the Old Testament of the Bible, it exibits  the wheel inside of a wheel as seen by Ezekiel. The wheels where the devices of mobility for the four great living Spirits of God. Shown also on the card are the four faces that were upon each of the four individual Spirits,  the man, the eagle, the ox and the lion,  guardians of the four corners of Heaven.  The message of the card has to do with the way we invision the Power in our lives. The same faces are depicted in the book “Revelations” and re-appear in the deck on the card of  ‘The World’, which signifiies the Truth of total awareness, and the realization of Greater Consciousness, as in “Revelations” where the truth of the Knowledge of Spirit becomes the “gateway to the Golden City” also known as the kingdom of the Divine. Factuality involving the Tarot can only ever be the facts that you as the seeker possess regarding the knowledge of Spirit Power. The symbology and the random selection provide an oracle which applies itself to guiding you to better understanding how your life is actually working for you.
