Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
hi friends! this thread is by special request by my good pal Half Past Midnight.... together we will learn the art of French Cartomancy!

Cartomancy is fortune-telling or divination using a deck of cards. Forms of cartomancy appeared soon after playing cards were first introduced into Europe in the 14th century. Practitioners of cartomancy are generally known as cartomancers, card readers, or simply readers.


this is a form of divination similar to Tarot... but actually preceeds the more popular form! we use a deck of 52 playing cards..... pretty cool huh?

and now i will teach you to do a 3 card Past Present and Future reading. i will provide links as well, where needed.

what you wana do is, get an empty notebook or some paper and a pen. and begin to take notes. you will learn how to read the cards.

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
keeping a grimoire is an essential part of wizardry and all that shit. hopefully you already have some kind of notebook where you keep your sigils, incantations, etc. this goes there.


ok.


red cards always stand for warming up, acceleration. increase.

black cards, conversely have the value of cold. stagnation. decrease.


your four suites translate to the Tarot thusly

hearts- the cups. representing water, love, and emotions.

diamonds are the Pentacles. they stand for Earth wealth, Materialiity.


spades are Swords.... air, thought. mental activity.



the clubs are the wands suite. fire. action. creative force.

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
the numbers and what they mean.


1 ace- new energies coming in

2 harmony, balance

3 public partnerships

4 stability

5 change, struggle

6 Perseverence

7 perfection, experiences gained

8 advancement

9 completion

10 end of a cycle.

how 9 and ten are different.... that is something for a later talk.

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
to understand the difference between a "ten of" something
and a
"nine of" something


consider the difference between a battle and a war.

nine stands for completion... end of a battle

ten stands for end of a cycle... end of the war.

makes sense?

there are some cards with one eye and it has the hidden meaning of Odin, or some people also say the prophet of elijah. it has an esoteric meaning that will be left to the student to understand for themselves.

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
your formula when asking the oracle for a 3 card reading.

we usually interpret these as Past, Present, and Future, one two three.


so you take the first card and interpret its meaning. what would that be for the person's past?


then you take the 2nd card and say, hmm, what does this mean for their present.


the same for the future, and always be gentle, take a moderate approach when interpreting the future, as so much is left to be determined yet, and you dont want to go and muddle up someones life path. be considerate always.

be speficic whenever possible, and vague if necessary. try to summon the energies of the Oracle and let her work through you.

practice makes improvement, as with all things.

WOW Thanks Plato II my buddy!
Looks like quite a bit to read.
I will have to find my deck of cards (or maybe I could just imagine the 3 cards in my head?).

I am eating now. Gotta mop the floors and then will come back to this thread.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for doing this!

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
OK I have been gifted a brand new deck of cards. Spirit always seems to come through.

Questions:

1.This deck has 3 jokers. Do I put them in? You didn't tell if they have meaning.

2.How do we pick the cards? just choose any 3 from anywhere after you shuffle and add good thoughts/vibes?

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
Since Plato is busy, I will try a reading on myself.
I looked at the back of the cards & chose 3 that seemed to call me.
I have chosen (or they have chosen me)

Past - 7♥
Present - A♦
Future - J♥

Card 1 past - [7 perfection, experiences gained] So all the crap I had to endure during my childhood was needed to become the person I am today.


Card 2 present - [1 ace- new energies coming in][diamonds are the Pentacles. they stand for Earth wealth, Materialiity.]
This is the perfect card because I have just this year bought a new house. It's a very nice house, we plan to die here.


Card 3 future - [la Hire- Etienne De Vignolles]
Fighting? because he was a fighter? I am going to have to fight for something?
Jacks mean actions so it fits with fighting.


I think I did OK for a practice test.
Who wants a reading?

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
For many of us, this is where it all started at remarkably young ages.

Simple, Insightful, Potent.

There are many books and guides out there and we can disagree on individual 'interpretations', but the sum is often greater than the whole. Our own 'interpretations' begin to take precedent eventually anyways.



1.This deck has 3 jokers.

Use at least one.

Re: Would You Like To Learn Cartomancy?
here's something i didn't know.

"The standard 52-card deck is often augmented with jokers or even with the blank card found in many packaged decks. In France, the 32-card piquet stripped deck is most typically used in cartomantic readings, although the 52 card deck can also be used. (A piquet deck can be a 52-card deck with all of the 2s through the 6s removed. This leaves all of the 7s through the 10s, the face cards, and the aces.)"
