"WHAT TAROT IS"

By KRISTIN LEE-GRAY, CTI – CERTIFIED TAROT MASTER AND INSTRUCTOR, PRESIDENT – CANADIAN TAROT NETWORK

As a certified Tarot master and instructor it is my intention and duty to convey these key points to my students, associates and clients:

Tarot the inviolate, one more language and “library” of the Universe, and a messenger of the ancient continues to speak to us no matter what new dress has been put upon it:

As a certified Tarot master and instructor it is my intention and duty to convey these key points to my students, associates and clients:

Tarot the inviolate, one more language and “library” of the Universe, and a messenger of the ancient continues to speak to us no matter what new dress has been put upon it:

History is the distillation of evidence surviving the past. – Oscar Handlin, Truth in History (1979)

Since the first Adam who beheld the night and the day and the shape of his own hand, men have made up stories and have fixed in stone, in metal, or on parchment whatever the world includes or dreams create. Here is the fruit of their labor: the Library…The faithless say that if it were to burn, history would burn with it. They are wrong. Unceasing human work gave birth to this infinity of books. If of them all not even one remained, man would again beget each page and every line.

–Jorge Luis Borges, regarding the Library of Alexandria

Tarot the energy, always resilient to suppression and attacks - in fact above it all – provides the symbolic messages to lift our humanity, giving hope, guidance and inspiration.

Tarot the portal, shines a light of truth through layers upon layers of distortion and misinterpretation to show us a way to the transformation of consciousness.

Tarot the system, which is not a religion, a spiritual ideology, mythology or something to cover up with words or labels; gives us a tool to lighten our journey as life gives us experiences for our own individual evolution of consciousness.

Tarot the historical, has no proven or defined historical beginning or place of origin; like the Universe, from which it continues to bring us messages through symbols.

We are the messengers of a Universal symbology known as Tarot, who can correct misconceptions, thereby opening our door wide for anyone to become more acquainted with what Tarot is and what Tarot is not. Tarot can be a needed bridge or a door way out of the prison of fear and give inspiration to new ideas, new perspectives and thus, hope.

We know that Tarot newsletters and world wide organizations can be a transformational force. We can provide a platform to show case Tarot’s symbolism, which will awaken those who are ready and provide thought-provoking entertainment to those exploring its possibilities. Tarot has continued over the centuries to remind us of the ancient, but reboots itself to remain fresh, relevant and new once again with the help of e-zines, websites, newsletters and all of us who so willingly participate to bless mankind.

In Tarot we are teachers, readers, writers, artists, enthusiasts, collectors, students and even some querents who belong to an authentic group of “evolutionaries”, whose intent and desire is to be of service.
