Hello

Bad Karma arrives in our lives from doing something that we 'know' to be wrong. So if you believe them to be 'wrong' then you will probably suffer, but it will be self inflicted negativity from believing that you have done what you shouldn't.

Negativity lies within the hearts & minds of humans, not in a deck of cards.

What if your fate line starts at you head line and cuts through your life line?

Everyone does not necessarily have a fate line. Nor do fate lines all look the same. The fate line is usually vertical, running more or less below the middle or longest finger.

The fate line generally reveals how you will use your talents, or how you will react to outside influence in your life.

The length of the line is less important than the construction of it. If the line is strong and solid means a stable and secure life. A chained or broken one means a general lack of direction and will.

What does 444 in numerology?

Another answer here. 444 is an angel number. Angel numbers are repeating numbers whereas you get a bill or change for $4.44, or see a license plate or phone number with 444. This is how your guardian angel communicates to you. Usually, this can be interpreted as a warning sign if you're Asian. Koreans view this number as bad luck and the Chinese interpret this as 'death'. Much in the way that many buildings in the Western world lack a 13th floor, some buildings in Asia skip the 4th floor.

It doesn't have to be a bad omen, of course. Maybe the time 4:44 is important, and you need to make a decision by then. In tarot, 4 always signifies stability. Like a table, you need four legs to make it stand. Which really correlates to the Bible verse Daniel 2:40, "Then there will be a fourth kingdom as strong as iron…"

Fun fact: The year 444 was a leap year. It began on a Saturday. Meaning this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance (leap year) to do something out of ordinary or not work-related (Saturdays). This is a chance to be free and unreachable like a flying eagle. In Revelation 4:7, The first creature was like a lion, and the second creature like a calf, and the third creature had a face like that of a man, and the fourth creature was like a flying eagle. You are granted a rare opportunity to choose something that is not in your fate or destiny.

It could also mean that you are given Divine protection. As stated on Daniel 3:25, He said, “Look! I see four men loosed and walking about in the midst of the fire without harm, and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods!”

The number 13 is not necessarily so much in Tarot as it is in Numerology. However, the 13th card in a deck of Tarot is the Death card, which has little to do with actual death.

What does it mean when you find a dead bird at your door step?

My first thought is how do you know it was placed there? Often when small birds impact with a window they die of the concussion and appear as if they have been placed where they drop.

Not all naturally occurring phenomenon have supernatural explanations. Sometimes a tiny dead bird is just that.

Are aleistair crowley tarot cards evil?

No, Tarot is not evil, nor is it a danger to your soul. It does tap into ancient "knowledge". How you use it is what makes it "good" or "evil".

It should be noted, that Tarot cards, much like any number of other magical tools, can and will pick up a "memory" from the user. This means if you are planning on working with Tarot, go out and buy a brand new, still in the wrapper, set. Do not use a second-hand set of Tarot unless you know and trust ALL of the previous users.

Answer

Yes. Very evil. Though, that depends entirely on your frame of reference. Divination is a sin according to the Bible and even "casual" use of any such tool (tarot/ouija/tea leaves/palmistry) help to assure your own personal place in Hell. However, according to every other tradition its not the tool, or even the fact that it may be supernatural, but what information you gather and how you use it that makes it good or evil.

What size is a tarot card?

Tarot cards can vary in size from the miniature decks to cards bigger than your hand. They may be round, oval, square or the more common rectangular.

When was the Universal Tarot deck invented?

There's a lot of debate over the answer to this question. While some say that there is a connection to the ancient Egyptian Book of Thoth, there isn't any proof of these claims. The earliest known Tarot decks date back to late 15th century Italy. The "modern" Tarot deck is 17th century French, and it's English language cousin is early 20th century. The English language version saw a few notable changes in the major arcana like the removal of "The Pope" card (replaced by the Hierophant). The Rider-Waite deck is the most common of the English language tarot cards and was drawn by Pamela Coleman Smith in 1909 (published in 1910). If you look hard enough you can find original 1910 versions on eBay. There's an excellent (free) online tarot reading available at ifate.com which is also worth seeing.

What is meant by a rectified deck in tarot cards?

I think it refers to the deck created by Arthur E. Waite and Pamela Colman Smith, often referred to as the "Rider-Waite" deck, but which I prefer to call the Waite-Smith deck.

Waite was a mystic who believed his mystical ideas allowed him to see the deficiencies in the common Tarot decks of his time, and to make corrections to them. I'm not sure of all the details; however, I do know that he switched the places of a couple of cards, and gave The Fool the number 0.

Because Waite considered his version the "correct" one, he called his deck "rectified."

How does a magic crystal ball work?

A crystal ball is used in the practise of scrying (a form of divination). Objects such as the crystal ball, water, fire, clouds, tea leaves, coffee grains, and many more can be used as the focus of the diviner's attempt to receive information about an issue, fortell the future, or discover hidden knowledge.

Crystals in particular are good for scrying as they are amplifiers, and transmitters and receivers of energy. They work by providing a focus for the reader's subconscious, which he can then tap into in order to uncover hidden knowledge.

If nothing else, crystal balls are a great meditation aide :)

Is the word Tarot as in tarot cards Torah spelled backwards as in Jewish Kabbalah?

No evidence of a Tarot/Torah connectionThe association of Tarot with Kabbalah is a synchretism dating from more recent times about three centuries after the 15th century appearance of Tarot cards. The association of Kabbalah with Tarot is based on a mapping of the 22 "Major Arcana" cards with the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet and it first appeared in Antoine Court de Gébelin's "Monde Primitif" of 1781. The traditional Tarot trump images reflect a Catholic cultural background and there's no evidence of Kabbalah or of any form of Jewish practice influencing the creation of Tarot.

In 15th century Italy, the Tarot cards were called "Trionfi" or trumps as this set of 22 extra cards was the decks main distinguishing feature. The card game for which these cards were originally designed is credited for introducing the concept of a trump suit in card games. The origins of the French word "Tarot" or of related words such as "Tarocchi" or "Tarock" remain unknown, but there is no evidence they are related to the word "Torah."

Answer

The Tarot/Torah thing does have one other source.

There is no etymological connection between tarot/torah, however, in Aleister Crowley's Book of Thoth (his interpretation of the tarot qabalistically) there is one relation drawn between them: The Qabalah, functionally, is designed to reveal the divine presence in everything (not to be confused with pantheism). We rejoice in God by appreciating his creation, and use creation to try to understand God. Therefore, ALL aspects of existence (good or bad, spiritual or physical) can be considered a call to us from God.

It could then be inferred that Tarot was deliberately called that to draw our attention to the Torah (A stretch to some, but the qabalist will understand).

Also, on the back cover (at least of the paper back) of the same Book, there is a picture of Thoth (Egyptian/Coptic god of language, magic, and wisdom) with:

T- A

R- O

On his hand. An essay in the book explains that this is a glyph to be meditated on since it reveals TARO (the book of thoth) which can be used to help interpret TORA (the book of Jewish law) to help us all escape the ROTA (meaning 'wheel') of fate.

People can spend the rest of their lives debating the validity of anything Crowley's ever said, so I won't make any claim that this is right, but does make for interesting brain food. Although, one is left wondering why the other anagrams (RATO, OATR, ORTA) are ignored. Perhaps there is secret wisdom to be found here.
