    This is exactly how I use tarot! It’s not a magical technique of divination, it’s a collection of targeted vagueries that help your brain frame a concept in a way you wouldn’t naturally conceive. You make the answers, tarot is just the conceptual equivalent of picking up an object and inspecting it to figure out what it is.

      And honestly I think I’ve gotten more out of the spiritual ritual aspect too than meditating or anything more technical / modern. It almost feels like my brain is just better geared to process information in that format and doing the technical stuff was like trying to run code through an emulator / compatibility layer. I can do it well enough, but it’s much easier, more efficient, and stable to just run the program natively.
