Ken asks…

What card trick is this and how do you do it?

I was at a camp two years ago and someone showed me a cool card trick. The person has 3 different people each pick a card then puts them aside, then he puts them back in, shuffles and spreads the cards out. He then asks the 3 people to each pick a card and when we picked up our cards, it was the same one. What card trick is it called? Did he use a trick deck (or whatever its called)

TarotTrumps answers:

This can be done with a few sleight of hand moves, but the easiest way is to use a trick deck. I don’t want to let everyone here in Answers in on the secret so email me and I tell you more about the deck.

Ruth asks…

What is the quickest way to get out of credit card debt FAST?

I currently have around US $4,500 in credit card debt, spread over three separate cards. I have US $1,300 in savings and I earn anywhere between US $2,000 and $3,000 each month.

I have zero expenses.

My question is, how do I pay off my credit card debt as quickly as possible whilst also building on my savings?

Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!!

TarotTrumps answers:

Please do not consolidate. It is not free, they will lower your payments by increasing the length of time until you are debt free, and you will take a hit on your credit score. Or they negotiate your debt down after telling you not to pay for awhile adding another hit to your credit score. Student loans are the only debt that can garnish your wages for non payment without taking you to court first. Just list them out on a piece of paper or a spreadsheet and follow the plan. If you work the plan, the plan will work for you.

A. Have a garage sale and sell anything that you no longer need or want.

B.Get a temporary part time job, if you have one, get another.

Here is a plan that can help you. If you work the plan, the plan will work for you:
1. Make a budget. Make the budget a week before you get paid. A budget is not a punishment! It is a tool which will free you from ever having to worry about money again. Put everything in your budget. Especially those annual, biannual, or quarterly bills like car registration, insurance, etc. Give every dollar you are going to bring home the name of where it is going. Add an “emergency fund” category to your budget for 25 dollars and save up until you have 1000-1250 dollars. Your emergency fund will help keep you from getting into new debt because of an emergency. If you can, set up a direct transfer to a savings account for your emergency fund. That way it moves automatically and you don’t even have to worry about it. You must cut your spending and live on less than you make.

2.First get current on all of you debts and make no more late payments. Stop using your credit cards immediately. Do not take on any more debt. Credit cards are like quicksand only the death is much slower. Make a list of all of your debts in order of highest interest rate to lowest interest. Use cash only for your spending from now on.

3.Pay the minimum due on all of your debts and then put your extra money towards paying off the highest interest one first. After you get that one paid off, you put the money you were paying on debt #1 (the minimum payment and the extra payment) towards debt #2. That will pay debt #2 off faster. When that is paid off, you put all three payments towards card #3 and that one will be paid off pretty quickly. As an example:

To start :
Debt #1 (highest interest): minimum payment+ extra payment
Debt #2 (middle interest): minimum payment
Debt #3(lowest interest): minimum payment

Debt #1: paid off
Debt #2: minimum payment from Debt #1+ Minimum payment from Debt #2 +extra payment
Debt #3: minimum payment

Debt #1: paid off
Debt #2: paid off
Debt #3:Minimum payment from card #1+ minimum payment from Debt #2+ minimum payment from Debt #3+ extra payment.

That way, you will get them all paid off, on time, and pay the least interest. It will also help towards rebuilding your credit since you will no longer have any late payments. This works no matter how many different debts you may have.

4. After you get all of your debts paid off, add to your emergency fund until you have 6-12 months of income saved up. Put that emergency fund money into a liquid money market fund or into a Bank of America no-risk CD so that if you need the money you can take it out without penalty.

5a. When you have your emergency fund in place, add a category for “fun” to your budget. Save for a holiday, a vacation, a big screen, or dinners out, whatever goal you want. Remember to enjoy your life.

5b. When you have your emergency fund in place, start saving for your retirement. Join the 401(k) plan at work and contribute the maximum. Your employer probably matches at least part of your contribution so why give up free money? Open a Roth IRA and contribute the maximum on a monthly basis. If you start saving for your retirement now, you will probably retire a millionaire.

5c. When you have your emergency fund in place, start saving for your next car. Only buy cars, or other things that depreciate, with cash. Save up for a nicer car. That way you get the interest instead of paying the interest.

You can do it and it isn’t as hard as you think. Just follow the plan.

Susan asks…

plz help me with the tarot card meanings for THE DEVIL & THE HIGH PRIESTESS?

plz help me with their meanings…my task is to create sum object/building/out of what i feel about the card or i can even use sum existing buildings which give me feel as my cards are

TarotTrumps answers:

High priestess : Meaning: Wisdom, knowledge, learning, intuition, purity, virtue

Devil : Losing independence, addiction and enslavement, caught up in the material, overindulgement, choosing to stay in the dark, pleasures, lust, and desire.

However, tarot card meanings are not set in stone. Find a deck you like, look at the card and examine the feelings that naturally come to you. For example,, one of my friends always reads Devil an a return to instincts, being in contact with your raw energy and psychic side. For him, it is a completely positive card.

Your Questions About Major Arcana Tarot Cards

William asks…

Out of the Tarot’s major arcana…which card best fits your description and why ?

You may use any tarot deck that you choose…just decide and tell which one you could, or do, see yourself as ?
and also ,for added fun if you lived another life before this, or many..what persons might you be( and again use the major aracana to figure this out!)and tell why!
Thanks!

TarotTrumps answers:

Hi Anne,

A good question to get the mind working. The High Priestess, I think for the present. This card represents someone who is spiritual and psychic: an astrologer or teacher. She has instinct and insight and these might come through dreams, hunches, astrology etc. I am an astrologer, I share my knowledge with others and love to delve into the secrets of the subconscious. I have always been drawn to this card. The High Priestess holds a scroll of secret knowledge. Her crown, the Moon illustrates her willingness to share that knowledge and reveal secrets to those who might benefit from her wisdom. Behind her throne, a curtain leads to the deepest, darkest, mysterious areas. I love the mythic tarot. In this tarot deck the High Priestess is portrayed as Persephone descending a staircase into the Underworld.
As for a past life, I don’t know what card so I asked the cards and the first card I got was one of the major arcana: the World. I’m not sure how to interpret it but the more I think about it, the more sense it makes. The Fool reaches the World card and realises that at the end of his journey, he is right back where he started. The world represents ‘accomplishment’ and the end of a cycle. A pause in life before the next cycle begins again with the Fool. So it could be that I have lived many times, reached the end of that cycle and in this life I am the Fool (not the High Priestess) at the start of a new cycle of incarnations. But then again, The High Priestess is only two cards away so maybe in this life I have been the Fool, I have been the Magician and now I’ve reached the High Priestess stage??? I shall stop rambling on .. This was a fun question.

Carol asks…

Please help with tarot cards?

I’m only a begginer at Tarot cards. I always forget which of major arcana cards corresponds to which zodiac, planet or element. Is it bad if I draw the symbols the cards to remind me??
Is it bad if I draw the symbols *on* the cards to remind me?? (sorry bout the typo)
it’s not me thumbing down

TarotTrumps answers:

Try keeping a tarot journal, writing the meaning of each card in the spread.

And yes, you can write on them, they are yours.

Maria asks…

tarot cards and there minor arcana?

I bought a 57 card deck by Robin Wood and I was wondering (me being a beginner) if it is totally necessary for me to have the major arcana at this time? I mean if I have the major arcana‘s as well does the readings become more serious or make a person need to be more alert?

TarotTrumps answers:

You can do readings with just the major arcana, or just the minor arcana, or with both. As a beginner i’d suggest learning each of them separately until you are really comfortable with them. For me personally, the major arcana tells of one’s journey, the process and/or phases of that journey. And within a reading i find that it indicates why one would be in that particular phase, how to cope with it, how to move on from it, and so on. The minor arcana really gets into specifics as to a situation/question. How one is viewing it, how it’ll work within the person’s life, the possible outcomes of the situation, the obstacles of the situation, etc.

Good luck!

Ken asks…

tarot cards? i have major arcana and i dont understand them?

does anyone know how to use them and give me some tips im used to gypsy fortune cards but my husband decided to throw them away since i got a newer deck which i dont really understand it comes with a book and everything but the description is like a sentence and its very vague

TarotTrumps answers:

Hello

The Majors are archetypal images, & can be hard to grasp.

The small booklets that you get with the decks are not a lot of good, I usually bin them.

I tell student to get some good books from Amazon, start a course, find a friend who is also studying – you can join a forum like mine also if you wish to ask tarot questions as you study.

The Tarot Symbolism and Meanings of the Magician Tarot Card

GuestBlogger — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 07:40:57 +0000

In tarot reading, the Magician is the card of manifestation. He represents the development of one’s first sense of conscious awareness. In this regard, he has become aware of his own, unique sense of self. The Magician Card encourages one to use their intellect to master the world around them. When he appears in a tarot card reading, he is a card of creation, constantly shifting the energies around him to manifest his desires.

The Magician’s counterpart is the female High Priestess. Thus, the Magician represents the masculine while the High Priestess represents the feminine. As a masculine figure, the Magician Tarot Card represents action. Unlike the High Priestess who prefers to go inward to gather knowledge from her intuitive nature, the Magician prefers to explore all that is outside of him. He is naturally curious and is constantly searching for the mystical and secretive elements in the natural world. His goal is to understand all that surrounds him and ultimately use this knowledge to master his world.

Tarot Symbolism of the Number 1: The Magician Tarot card is associated the number one. In the tarot card deck, he is the fist numbered card of the Major Arcana. One’s represent individuality, creativity, originality, unity, power, knowledge and birth. His symbolic association to the number one references his divine connection to the Divine. Although his goal is to master the physical realm, he still remains tied to Divine Consciousness. In a tarot card reading, the Magician represents the union with Divine consciousness. He is the conscious link between the world of spirit and the world of man.

Tarot Symbolism of the Rose and Lily: The rose and the lily have important symbolic functions in the Magician tarot card. The rose represents the Magician’s passion for life. It is a feminine attribute and is often associated to birth and materialization. In this regard, the rose represents the emergence of the Magician’s sense of self. Roses can also represent the physical senses. The Lily, on the other hand, has masculine attributes. Lilies represent both the spirit world and the Magician’s pursuit of knowledge. In a tarot card reading, lilies represent purity. For the Magician, the lily is symbolic of both truth and humility.

Tarot Symbolism of the Table and Elements: The Table which stands before the Magician is a symbol of concrete reality. Tables are also associated to the number four which represents manifestation. Upon the table rests a cup, sword, rod and pentacle. These are a representation of the four elements. The Magician uses these elements during his process of creation. They represent the Magician’s power to master his own skills and manifest his energy.

Tarot Symbolism of the Wand and Infinity Sign: The Wand of the Magician is a symbol of the Magician’s connection to Divine Spirit. In one hand he points his wand to the heavens and in the other hand he points to the four elements resting on the table before him. Symbolically, this represents the Magicians ability to use divine energy to manifest in the physical world. In a tarot card reading, the Magician represents manifestation on the earthly plane. However, there is always an exchange of energy. This is symbolically represented by the infinity sign. This exchange of energy occurs between the realm of spirit and the physical world. The Magician has the ability to move between these two worlds. This unique skill enables the Magician to remain adaptable and flexible through any situation that he is confronted with.

In a tarot card reading, The Magician represents the utilization of one’s skills. He is a reminder of the power that is within you. He often signifies the need for a self-confidence and adaptability. Please also visit our tarot card meanings section to learn more about the Magician.

Mandy asks…

Jumper tarot card spreads?

When a card keeps popping out while you’re shuffling, what is a good spread to use on them to figure out what they’re trying to tell you? I suppose with cards like The Lovers or The Hierophant their message is more clear, but The High Priestess and 7 of Swords have been popping out (on separate occasions) and I wanted more cards to clarify, but was unsure if there were specific spreads dedicated to that or not. Thank you =]

TarotTrumps answers:

I use the jumping cards usually as the first card of the spread, especially when reading for someone else. There are times however, when I just put the card back in the deck and continue shuffling. If they are truly THAT important, then they will pop up in the spread somewhere.
