There
are quite a few options for one
seeking psychic Tarot advising
now a days from phone and computer
readings to eye to eye reading
with well known Psychics and Tarot
Card Readers. I have talked to
5-6 Paranormal groups that by
no means will go on a ghost hunt
unless they consult the Tarot
first to see if a place is worth
the effort of Ghost Hunting.
Ms.
Audrey a well known New York Tarot
reader says that many come to
her and ask her to read the cards
and let them know if their apartment
is really haunted before they
move in. " The cards do tell
of ghost quite often" she
says. "And they do tell if
they are friendly or evil."
When asked if she could tell if
a house, a person or a thing was
haunted by ghosts she said "
Yes the Tarot do cover that aspect
very well." Even Tarot Cards
I have had over the years have
become haunted by ghosts!"
" And often they are mischievous
so I have to retire the deck at
that point."
Psychic
Mickey Of Miami gives an unbelievable
tarot reading and some chilling
advice on how to find spiritual
activity. Mickey says she retires
at least five decks of cards a
year because a client may bring
a ghost with them that just will
not leave her deck. Mickey says
that in talking with other readers
across the United States they
all say it seem that tarot cards
make a great home for a homeless
ghost. One psychic told her she
believes the Tarot Cards will
actually trap the spirit. "True
are not, who knows better or not
then the reader," Said Mickey.
All she knows is the decks she
has are very haunted by real ghost!
The haunted decks she says move
by themselves. Or give the same
reading over and over same cards
same position. " I use to
consider the decks just getting
old and over worked"."
I even thought stale left over
psychic residue, much like a residual
haunting." "Then in
time I started questioning the
decks and to my surprise they
actually told me they were in
fact haunted by ghosts!"
" I read cards for many different
haunted clients, some come with
ghosts, demons and strange entities"
And many of these ghost often
seem to either like me are my
cards so much that they decide
to take up permanent residence
in my decks."
Mickey
says Tarot cards can open psychic
locked doors to the other side.
And when getting a reading it
is better not to think of the
dead for they will come to you
in your reading with answers you
may not like. She also warns that
through a reading the dead often
say things we do not want to hear.
Many people have not so well to
do ghosts or spirits hanging around
them waiting for a chance to interact
with them. As a psychic Tarot
reader of her caliber she has
spent many years communicating
with spirits of all types.
Finding
A Real Haunted Deck Of Tarot Cards
Many
wonder is it just a game or the
memorizing the meaning to the
78 cards. Often Readers are asked
what psychic powers does it take
to read cards? Is it a paranormal
experience? In july 2005 Michael
K. Bland and Steve Meyer set out
to investigate if Tarot Readers
and Tarot cards had any connection
to Ghosts and the paranormal.
As Tarot Cards are considered
part of the occult sciences they
were trying to see if any facts
and evidence of paranormal activities
were afoot. "Tarot is much
like a Ouija Board" says
Meyer's, "I think it's also
a direct link to ghostly encounters."
Some
Tarot readers in the world have
said that their contact through
cards have made them sensitive
to the other side. And because
of this their talents as a medium
have surfaced. Bland And Meyer's
thought what a better way to investigate
haunted objects (Tarot Cards)
or possibly haunted people. "Some
of the Tarot readers they met
told a few real scary ghost stories...
And in their eyes you could see
they were telling the truth!"
Says Bland.
Bland
and Meyer's use the standard ghost
hunting equipment of Cameras,
emf meters and digital recordings
in this investigation with a few
surprising results.
The
serious question was are these
ghost seeking out the Tarot Readers
or just visiting with the clients
who come to them for readings?
Many
modern Tarot psychics claim that
spirit guides are attached to
their private decks. Many believe
that spirit guides are chosen
on "the other side"
by us and God before we incarnate,
and that they guide us to follow
our life's plan because we want
them to. Some people claim it
is possible to meet one's spirit
guide just by what card falls
out most often from the deck when
doing readings. Their guidance
is said, by some, not to require
mediumship. Just look at what
card falls out from your deck
as you shuffle.

It's
All In The Cards
This
Ancient Tarot of Lombardy
deck is a reproduction
of a neoclassical deck
published around 1810
in Italy. The original
was printed from fine
metal engraving plates
and hand-colored. The
name of the cardmaker
F. Gumppenberg is given
on the ace of cups (coppe).
Tax stamps of the period
can be seen on the ace
of swords (spade). The
card titles are in Italian,
and majors are numbered
in Roman numerals except
for the Fool and Death
cards. Numbers for the
minor arcana are given
in the upper left and
lower right corners. The
suit symbols follow the
Spanish style in that
the indiviudal wands (bastoni)
and swords are shown separately
on the numbered cards.
In an interesting reversal
of the norm, the Lovers
card shows a woman between
two men. This deck is
published by Lo Scarabeo
of Italy and distributed
by Llewellyn in the US.

Many
people consult tarot cards and
those who read them for different
reasons. to find out about love,
money and what dangers lies ahead
in the future. But often these
readers come across ghost in the
cards. "There is no better
place to find real genuine Tarot
Readers then in one of the most
haunted cities there is, New Orleans
also one of the scariest places
on earth," says Bland."
The french Quarter has many shops
that offer readings and famous
Jackson Square has rows of tables
filled with many readers 24/7."
" So we sought out the best
and most popular to get their
opinions and see if they would
let us investigate them and their
haunted Paranormal claims."
the team started their investigation
with a ghost hunting trip to New
Orleans in August of 2005.
REESE
THE PSYCHIC TAROT READER
One often hears Spiritualists,
mediums and others refer
to "spirit guides"
and other terms. Spirit
guide" is a term
used by the Western tradition
of Spiritualist Churches,
mediums and psychics to
describe an entity that
remains a disincarnate
spirit in order to act
as a spiritual counselor
or protector to a living
incarnated human being.
some psychics refer to
their Tarot Decks as their
Spiritual Guides.
"Tarot cards can
be the voice of the dead."
Says Psychic Reese."
Many times I might be
reading and the meaning
of the card is actually
telling me a direct message
from the other side!"
Reese
a reader in New Orleans
for many years read with
the help of a spirit guide
he said to those he did
cards for. The well Known
psychic voodoo King of
Bourbon Street has related
to us that many times
those he read would bring
their own ghost with them.
And by some paranormal
powers they would manifest
them selves in the reading.
Sometimes giving a message
to the love one who sat
before him. Or a message
for someone not present.
Reese
actually Told the team
that owns several real
haunted Tarot decks. The
first is the deck he often
uses from his mentor and
now spirit guide the Late
Mrs. Gilbert who he says
haunts the deck. "
She is my true spirit
guide," says Reese.
"The deck of cards
she first gave me was
spooked by the person
who taught her it's in
what I feel a way to keep
their spirit alive."
Traditionally, within
the spiritualist churches,
spirit guides were often
stereotyped ethnically,
with Native Americans,
Chinese or Egyptians being
popular for their perceived
ancient wisdom, saints
or enlightened individuals.
The term can, however,
also refer to animals
or totems, controls, angels
or nature spirits even
Tarot Cards as a real
living entity. Reese believe
that many spirits travel
with those that come to
him for readings and some
times these ghosts use
the Tarot to speak to
his clients.
Reese a former Reader
at Marie Laveaus' House
of Voodoo on Bourbon Street
in New Orleans. Says many
spirits walked in and
out of this most haunted
Voodoo shop... including
that of Marie Laveau herself
and Chickenman. "
Many times they would
sit in on my readings
and often they would manipulate
the cards in front of
me and my clients to give
them a message from a
dead loved one!"
" Few told him not
until they had entered
the dark reading room
that they had, had no
real life ghost sightings
until they came there
to New Orleans while on
French Quarter Ghost Tours."
Reese said that many
of the spirits that he
comes in contact with
just want their loved
ones to know that they
are alright and are still
part of their lives.
While doing the Tarot
reading for Bland the
lights flickered 3 times.
Emf readings fluctuated
and the temperature dropped
8 degrees in the room
on this very hot August
night. The reading was
also recorded and faint
whispering EVP voices
could be heard on the
tape that Reese gave him.
As far as asking did he
receive a message from
the dead? Bland says yes.
Reese looked him straight
in the eyes and said out
of the blue. " Don't
cry BOY, Mama will always
hold your hand."
"These were that
last words his mother
said to him when she was
on her death bed, dying
of brain cancer in May
2005."
Reese was given a haunted
Deck the night before
Bland and Meyer's visited
him.
Reese also tells the
strange tale of a haunted
tarot deck he owns given
to him by a customer who
came to Marie Laveaus
house of voodoo one night.
The lady all dressed in
black about 79 years of
age came to him one night
at midnight. From her
purse she pulled out a
very old deck of Lombardy
tarot cards. It was wrapped
in black silk then inside
a beaded bag with the
image of the moon in real
pearls on it.
She told Reese they had
belonged to her Grandmother
who was a witch. The lady
went on to tell him that
she had read the cards
and they told her that
she should travel to New
Orleans from her home
in Vermont and give them
to a red haired psychic
Tarot reader on Bourbon
Street. This particular
deck is the one he used
for his reading on both
Bland and Meyers since
they wanted to investigate
haunted Tarot Cards.
The
lady went on to tell him
that her cards were haunted
by several ghost. Reese
was not convinced the
deck was haunted until
he witnessed one card
actually falling out of
the deck on its own the
main card that always
seem to jump out at him
was the Temperence card.
This card jumped out 7
times when Bland shuffled,
and 8 times when Meyer's
did.
The
Temperence cards meaning
tells your answer... it
is before you in time.
Reese still has this deck
and it is part of his
private collection. He
will read someone on it
if they ask to contact
someone who has passed
on.
"Just because a card
falls out of deck does
not mean it's haunted"
said Reese. " But
this deck makes me feel
uncomfortable." At
the end of the reading
Reese gave the haunted
Deck to the team to investigate
with the promise that
they returned it to him
when done.
Sadly because of the
intrusion of hurricane
Katrina on August 29,
2005 The investigation
was never completed at
the time. But Bland and
Meyer's will be catching
up with Reese later this
year in North Carolina
to test his haunted claims
further. And return to
him the haunted Tarot
that they are still investigating
to date. |
Several
people offer techniques from experiences
they claim say allowed them to
meet their spirit guides. There
are many published materials by
various authors with their own
insight into the Tarot and Ghost
or occult phenomenon.

The Tarot has been the most popular
form of fortunetelling for centuries.
Some call them the Devil's Picture
Book. Paul Huson's trend-setting
book on Tarot cards published
in 1971 explores the magical and
mythological imagery of the famous
deck. The New Haven Register recognized
it as: "The most comprehensive
and illuminating work on these
'mirrors of the soul.' Unique
among books on the Tarot."
"Tarot
Card Ghosts, Contact From The
Other Side"
"The Other
Side" is much less dense
atmosphere than Earth, and so
therefore it is believed that
we must be tuned in to our guides
by freeing the mind or doing one
of many meditations. Reese believe
that many Tarot readers when they
die still want to read cards and
help people. that is why they
attach their spirit or ghost to
a tarot reader or a particular
deck of cards.

regional styles include the "Swiss"
Tarot; this one substitutes Juno

The
Tarot is a set of cards used in
fortune-telling. A few years ago,
tarot cards would have conjured
up images of Gypsies, who didn't
begin using tarot cards until
the 20th century. Today, the cards
are popular among occultists and
New Agers in all walks of life.
According to Grillot de Givry
(1971)..
The Major Arcana,
consisting of 22 trump cards:
The Fool; The Magician; The High
Priestess ; The Empress; The Emperor;
The Hierophant; The Lovers; The
Chariot; Strength; The Hermit;
Wheel of Fortune; Justice; The
Hanged Man; Death; Temperance;
The Devil; The Tower; The Star;
The Moon; The Sun; Judgement and
The World.
The Minor Arcana consisting of
56 cards:
Ten cards numbered from Ace to
10 in four different suits; traditionally
batons (wands), cups, swords and
coins (pentacles) (40 cards in
total); and Four court cards (page,
knight, queen, and king) in the
same four suits (16 court cards
in total).
In the Western
world today, the Tarot is usually
seen either as a means of divination,
the practice of ascertaining information
from supernatural or other sources,
or, in a more modern view, as
a psychological tool for accessing
the unconscious. However, early
references such as a sermon refer
only to the use of the cards for
game-playing and gambling; and
in some European countries such
as France, Italy, Switzerland,
Austria and Germany, Tarot is
still a widely played game.
The relationship
between Tarot cards and playing
cards is well documented. Playing
cards appeared quite suddenly
in Christian Europe during the
period 1375-1380, following several
decades of use in Islamic. Early
European sources describe a deck
with typically 52 cards, like
a modern deck with no jokers.
In the present-day the Tarot is
usually seen either as a means
of divination, the practice of
ascertaining information from
supernatural or other sources,
or, in a more modern view, as
a psychological tool for accessing
the unconscious. However, early
references such as a sermon refer
only to the use of the cards for
game-playing and gambling; and
in some European countries such
as France, Italy, Switzerland,
Austria and Germany, as Michael
Dummett points out in Twelve Tarot
Games (1980), Tarot games are
still widely played.
The art researcher Maike Voigt-Lüerssen
presents in her German language
book "Wer ist Mona Lisa -
Auf der Suche nach ihrer Identität"
the hypothesis, that Mona Lisa
was identical with Isabella of
Aragon (1470 - 1524), the wife
and cousin of Giangaleazzo Sforza
(1469 - 1494), official duke of
Milano from 1476 - 1494 under
the reignment of his mother Bona
von Savoyen (1476 - 1480) and
his uncle Ludovico Sforza (1480
- 1494). Isabella was daughter
of Ippolita Sforza and with that
her grandmother was Bianca Maria
Visconti, who is suspected to
be strongly involved with the
Invention of Trionfi (Tarot) cards
in 1441.

from the 15th century plus four
cards recreated to replace cards
missing from the initial deck.
The original cards are now divided
between the Pierpont Morgan Library
in New York, the Accademia Carrara,
and the Colleoni family of Bergamo,
Italy.
Maike Voigt-Lüerssen
makes herself known for having
researched renaissance pictures
for more than 17 years and gotten
a diploma in history. She has
published various books to contemporary
themes. Her thesis is documented
in the web by lots of until now
rather unknown picture material.

An
Outlaws Ghost And the Crowley
Deck
Texas
Professional Tarot Reader,
and Teacher S. J. Evans
has been in practice for
over 42 years. "It's
a great gift of God. I
knew from when when I
was very young. It's an
insight -- to find people's
vibes and feelings,"
she says while lighting
a cigarette. "I feel
vibes -- the character
within the person."
" I also feel see
and here ghost that try
to talk to me through
my cards".
According
to Ms. Evans, who is a
direct descendent of John
Wesley Hardin. Her mother
spirit Wanda and grandmother
Joy Hardin or John Wesley
could also reach into
the ether and communicate
with spirits directly.
But
she makes it clear that
a gift like this can only
be nurtured, not taught.
So, what exactly are these
spirits? "I won't
say just ghosts,"says
Susan. " She sometimes
feels things from the
people around her. "It's
not an on/off switch.
But since the early age
of 5 John Wesley haunted
me and I did not know
it was him until I found
Tarot Cards and learned
the answer. Sometimes
I feel things that are
unwelcome around me and
I know it's John Wesley
telling me to beware!"
"I listen to him
always whatever he says
I do."
John
Wesley Hardin (May 26,
1853—August 19,
1895) was an outlaw and
gunfighter of the American
Old West. He was born
in Bonham, Fannin County,
Texas.
Gunfighter:
An Autobiography
BUY IT HERE NOW!
Supposedly after his death
there were two sayings
about Hardin:
That he wasn't bad looking
except for being dead;
That if he was shot in
front it was good marksmanship
and if he was shot in
the back of the head it
was good judgment. These
sayings are probably urban
legends. His autobiography,
completed to the beginning
of his law studies in
prison, was the subject
of some litigation and
was published in 1896.
Hardin was an unusual
type of killer, a handsome,
gentlemanly man who considered
himself a pillar of society,
always maintaining that
he never killed anyone
who did not need killing
and that he always shot
to save his own life.
Many people who knew him
or his family regarded
him as a man more sinned
against than sinning.
The fact that he had more
than thirty notches on
his gun, however, is evidence
that no more dangerous
gunman ever operated in
Texas.
Eventually,
Hardin was captured but
entered prison with a
pre-law degree he had
earned along with his
brother. He finished his
law degree while incarcerated.
After serving 17 years
in prison Hardin was released,
and he began practicing
law as an attorney in
El Paso, Texas. Despite
his law practice, Hardin
was frequently drunk and
violent, often demanding
his money back at gunpoint
if he lost at cards. Rumor
had it that he was haunted
by past atrocities. In
1895 he began work on
his autobiography.
So can
a psychic like Evans see
into her own future? "No
not all the time,"
replies Evans, elaborating
that nothing specific
can be seen clearly. "I
only feel something bad
or ugly coming when I
feel John Wesley in the
cards." Unless my
mother or grandmother
start talking to me through
the cards to tell me someone's
going to die. But it was
John Wesley Hardin's ghost
that told her to move
to Texas in 1994 and that
her mothers life was hanging
in the balance. This warning
from him was nothing that
she would ever ignore.
"If John Wesley Hardin
Tells me to do something
I do it." says Evans.
"I
only use the Aleister
Crowley Deck" says
Evans, "I think it
is the most hauntingly
beauteous deck in existence."
