Whatever method is used, they have to look for and to understand the mysterious organization of life. The researches on the history of the Tarot show that it was conceived to practice a form of magic or ceremony of initiation. Throughout the centuries, divination has been placed at the heart of religious practices, and they elaborated systems bound to the spiritual concepts based on the variety of cultures that consists their origin.
The Tarot, with its 78 illustrated cards, opens for us a door toward a region named "the unconscious self". This one is the deeper part of the collective unconscious, that has no spatial or temporal localization but that is spread on the set of Space and Time.
These primordial pictures are a sort of universal memory, a heritage that is transmitted hereditary to each of us.
The Tarot, by the symbols of its cards, show us the journey of the soul since birth until death, while passing by all journeys of life. The Tarot contains the plan of the Universe, in the sense where it contains some truths about the future.
Otherwise, we live in the past, present and future, because a real division of time doesn't exist in terms of the past, present and future; they are absorbed in only one instantaneous present, where there is neither time nor space.
Indeed, the divinatory art of the Tarot let us transcend this Space-time and let us penetrate the future in one moment that is situated beyond our terrestrial time. There is not any reason to consider the course of the time as having a unique sense, meaning that time flows only from past towards future, because the past and the future, are part of this present named instantaneous.
In this infinite Space-time every event that takes place is in a continuous inter-relation with another event. To access this reservoir of knowledge, we have to observe the Tarot cards, as they are the image of everyone's self.
The Tarot Arcana are in a way "the antennas of the soul" because we can project them beyond our bodily, terrestrial limits. What is revealed to us, is the real intuition of our future. Since we choose one card rather than another, it is our spiritual soul that guides this choice. Therefore, the Tarot helps us to better understand our destiny.
The mystery that envelopes our future can be then, decoded as well as the trails of a life that doesn't miss the charm to be lived.
