      <title>P. D. Ouspensky's Journey Through the Major Arcana</title>
      <pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2005 16:41:27 -0400</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[The work below was sent to me by an anonymous contributor. From what I was told it is an excerpt from a much larger piece of work by P. D. Ouspensky that was published in the early part of the 20th Century. 
<P>Apparently Ouspensky rearranged the cards of the Major Arcana and then gave his imagination free rein to journey through them. The text below is the result of his venture. The writing is quite eloquent at times and certainly merits an audience. The cards and descriptions are presented in the same order as the author used. </P>]]></description>

      <title>Integrating Other Symbolic Systems with Tarot</title>
      <pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2005 16:54:43 -0400</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Many people have tried to work out correspondences between astrology and the tarot—and then someone else comes along, disagrees with them, and works out a new scheme, which also has its advantages and its drawbacks. Jessica and Nancy believe that the court cards can sensibly be assigned zodiac connections, but not the rest of the cards. ]]></description>

      <title>Dreams, Inner Journeys, and the Cards</title>
      <pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2005 16:43:15 -0400</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[When we think of the tarot or other oracles, we usually think of them as providing insight and information about what is going on in our external world—the world of action and reaction. But these same symbols can act as communication between many realms—inner, outer, spirit, faery, angelic, and "dreamtime" (the realm of myth and potential where the unmanifest is real).
We can use the cards to help us to interpret an inner journey or a dream—and we can use a dream or an inner journey to help us interpret a card reading. Both ways work and both ways enrich our insight into our personal symbolism. Let's consider some of the ways we can cross-fertilize our understanding of these symbols as they appear in the cards, in the world, and in our inner worlds.

      <title>An Analysis of Tarot Cards</title>
      <pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2005 16:40:09 -0400</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[OPINIONS of authorities differ widely concerning the origin of playing cards, the purpose for which they were intended, and the time of their introduction into Europe. In his Researches into the History of Playing Cards, Samuel Weller Singer advances the opinion that cards reached Southern Europe from India by way of Arabia....]]></description>

      <title>Tarot Deck Basics</title>
      <pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2005 16:38:53 -0400</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA["Which deck should I start with?" A question frequently asked, and one too quickly answered with the response "Rider-Waite." This traditional deck, illustrated by Pamela Coleman-Smith, is the one most recommended because it's considered by many to be "the standard." ]]></description>

      <title>Tarot As Seen by A. E. Waite &amp; Pamela Coleman</title>
      <pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2005 16:37:23 -0400</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Most of us started our journey into the world of Tarot with the deck created by A.E. Waite and illustrated by Pamela Coleman Smith. Being so, it seems only fitting that actual work of these purveyors of modern Tarot be given a space to be studied by all. In that spirit I have created this section filled with their writing and art. ]]></description>
