CHAPTER ONE A BEGINNING         This is a book for anyone, beginner to advanced, who wants to understand and read the Tarot. It has a newly revealed layout and card interpretations that will excite the serious student and presents an easy new system that avoids laborious memorizing. It is deliberately intended to encourage beginners to take up the subject of Tarot.
        Everything that happens in your daily life is part of the unfolding of your divine purpose. The more you can grasp the essence of that purpose, the more harmonious that unfolding will be. The system of Karmic Tarot includes ways of broadly discerning your chosen lifetime purpose. But it is also highly useful in your day-to-day affairs. You can gather rich information about specific issues and time factors affecting your current situation. A Tarot reading with the Karmic Spread is not only diagnostic but prescriptive. You are getting answers to the questions you are asking in your heart.
        To be rich in meaning and valid in its insights, a reading must be both passive and active; passive in the emotional and spiritual planes in order to listen and receive information-and active in the physical and mental planes in order to validate and interpret all messages.
        The system of Karmic Tarot guides the reader to see the underlying principles and patterns at work in Tarot, rather than having you memorize what numerous others say given cards mean. It is designed t o kindle knowledge hidden deep within you as a potential reader. If you can discover the essence of the cards and their relationships in the deck, the meanings you need will always be there when you need them. They will bubble up from deep inside you with little or no effort during a reading.
        The Tarot is both a rational and an intuitive system, a marvelous blend of right-brain and left-brain thinking. It is a logical system of archetypal symbols and structured layouts on which the intuitive right brain can play its half of the game. So it's an excellent tool for exercising and training the whole brain, for study of any kind in any field.
        The Tarot is also an excellent and friendly introduction to metaphysics, as it embodies so many of the underlying mysteries of the universe. Karmic Tarot focuses on your movement through y our own universe, the evolution of your personal consciousness.
        I believe that Tarot is a gift from God to help us on this path, and to help us create our future-rather than merely predict it. I think the Tarot was conceived as a tool to aid us in fulfilling our divine purposes. It is my sincerest hope that this book will give you a working knowledge of that tool and the people for whom you read.
        This book does not address the history of the Tarot per se; that has already been well documented. Rather, it is concerned with the origins of the Tarot, with looking at it intensely and from many viewpoints, so that you can see its underlying principles at work.
        The Tarot is a living, "written" (visually symbolical) language. Despite the fact that the oldest deck found this far is probably Italian, dating from the late fourteenth or early fifteenth century, Tarot may well be the oldest of all written languages. For Tarot's symbology could well have been born in that magical, ancient moment when man invented the first alphabets to capture the sounds of his speech. This, in fact, was the moment symbology itself was born-the original stuff from which archetypes have derived. This brought the sense of sight into the ability of man to communicate, and what is referred to in this book as the mental plane of man was born. This is why archetypal symbology moves us in such a deep and mysterious way. Even now it is hard to express many of these "messages" in words.
        Up until now, much Tarot work has been limited to forecasting the future, placing it side-by-side with mediums used primarily for fortune-telling, such as palmistry, tea leaves, and the crystal ball. Other, more serious Tarot work, such as correlations with the Hebrew alphabet, the Kabbalah, astrology and various mythologies, have centered around only the main twenty-two cards of the deck, the Major Arcana. Even when the emphasis of such work has been on using the Major Arcana to discover the pathways of the evolution of consciousness, the result has been little more than enriched meanings for those twenty-two cards.
        All Tarot card references in this work are to the classical Tarot deck, i.e., a deck of seventy-eight cards. Such a deck consists of a twenty-two-card Major Arcana and a fifty-six-card Minor Arcana (four suits of fourteen cards each-ten numbered or "Pip" cards, and four "Court" or face cards).
        This new spread reflects the journey that your four-fold self (physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual) takes through the seven Stages of evolutionary consciousness, beginning with your Karmic Contract at birth, i.e., what you have chosen to do in this lifetime. It uses the increasing similarity and harmony of Eastern and Western philosophies, exemplified in Eastern terms as the seven chakras in the unfolding of the kundalini, and in Western terms by the transpersonal psychologists as the seven Stages of evolutionary consciousness.
        A unique interpretation of inverted cards is part of the Karmic Tarot's facility as a centering mechanism, to help you walk the middle path, a path that is literally a journey through all the dualities that threaten to pull you off course. Upright cards are interpreted as the central, root message of that archetype; while inverted cards are seen to be an imbalance of that root, involving either too much or too little of that principle.
        In Karmic Tarot, you'll see for the first time how the Minor Arcana are used along with the Major Arcana to define the path of evolving consciousness. A structure within each of the Arcana, as well as a structural relationship between the two, is uncovered. So a wealth of new information is revealed, creating a new spread and expanded meaning for all the seventy-eight cards.
        You will also see how each Arcanum can be used to deepen your understanding of the meanings of the cards in the other Arcanum-much as words in a dictionary send you back and forth but with increasingly better definitions each time. Just as you use words to define other words in conventional language, you can use cards to define other cards in the language of the Tarot. This is important for growth in interpreting the Minor Arcana. The more you can see into the mechanics behind and within the Tarot, the less you will depend on blind memorization of cards and arbitrary layouts and the more you will see where each card fits into the whole. Once you see the fit, your mind automatically fills with interpretations.
        The Tarot is a system that enables your intuitive Soul/Spirit self to communicate with your objective Mind/Emotion/Body self. There is unlimited information available to you from your intuitive level, and the Tarot is an excellent way of reaching and working with it. Given a good deck, a good reader, and the proper setting, the possibilities are limitless.
