Here is a short explanation of what they are and the mechanics of it from one of my favourite games: Persona 3 Portable for the PlayStation Portable game system. Originating in 15th century Europe as normal playing cards, tarot cards evolved into tools of divination. A variety of different versions of tarot card decks exist, including the Marseille and Rider decks. The following explanation will be made in respect to the great magician Crowley, using the Thoth deck. First we will talk about the composition of the deck… The modern 78-card tarot deck is divided into two parts. There are 22 Major Arcana—the face cards—and 56 Minor Arcana, or number cards… The Minor Arcana are also sometimes called pips. The Major Arcana features a variety of illustrations on their faces. Beginning with “The Fool” and ending with “The World”… they tell a story in numerical order that is a metaphor of an individual’s journey through life. Each Major Arcana represents a stage on that journey… an experience that the individual must incorporate to realize his/her oneness. They are all important, so let’s take a look at each of the 22 cards, one by one. The first card, numbered 0, is The Fool. It represents the beginning and suggests infinite possibilities. The second card, numbered 1, is The Magician. It represents action and initiative… but also immaturity. The third card, numbered 2, is The Priestess. It represents contemplation and inner knowledge. The fourth card, numbered 3, is The Empress. It represents motherhood and the life it brings forth. The fifth card, numbered 4, is The Emperor. It is an opposing card. It represents fathering and relates to leadership and decision-making skills. The sixth card, numbered 5, is The Hierophant. It represents formality and knowledge, and stands for religion. The seventh card, numbered 6, is The Lovers. It represents choice. Here, the individual’s consciousness has finally surfaced. The eighth card, numbered 7, is The Chariot. It represents victory for the individual, but only a momentary one. The ninth card, numbered 8, is Justice. It represents the knowledge of what is right, and what is wrong. The tenth card, numbered 9, is The Hermit. It represents the individual’s search for answers by looking inward, deep inside his/her heart. The eleventh card, numbered 10, is Fortune. It represents fate, and the opportunities that come with it. The twelfth card, numbered 11, is Strength. It represents both passion and self-control. It is depicted as power with reason. The thirteenth card, numbered 12, is The Hanged Man. It reflects the individual’s inability to take action. The fourteenth card, numbered 13, is Death. Spiritual death awaits the individual with the 13th numbered card. Death is considered a transitional card… The old ends and the new begins. Continuing along the path following the transition… The fifteenth card, numbered 14, is Temperance. It is the balancing of opposites. Opening his/her eyes to the world allows the individual to grow… The sixteenth card, numbered 15, is The Devil. And as The Devil represents, he/she then faces temptation… The seventeenth card, numbered 16, is The Tower. At The Tower, his/her values collapse on him/her. It seems as if he/she no longer has anything to believe in, but… The eighteenth card, numbered 17, is The Star. …he/she then finds a glimmer of hope, represented by The Star; and he is suffused with a serene calm. The nineteenth card, numbered 18, is The Moon. This bliss makes him/her vulnerable to the illusions of The Moon. Fears arise, and he follows the dim path in his/her heart with trepidation… The twentieth card, numbered 19, is The Sun. But he/she is rewarded with a bright future, represented by The Sun, which signifies true achievement. The twenty-first card, numbered 20, is Judgement. Judgement awaits the individual at the end of his/her journey, as he/she looks back on the path he/she has traveled. The twenty-second & final card is numbered 21 and is known as The World. It represents the individual’s full awareness of his/her place in the world. That is the growth of an individual as explained by the tarot cards. It is possible to use all 78 cards to divine the future in detail… but most people only use the 22 Major Arcana. Here are some of my favourite quotes from a variety of different sources: "Happiness is something like unhappiness, that strikes without warning." -Elmer C. Albatross - Baccano! - Aniplex, FUNimation Entertainment "False tears are capable of hurting other people. False smiles are capable of hurting one's self." -C.C.- Code Geass - Sunrise, Clamp, Gorō Taniguchi, Ichirō Ōkouchi "Rid yourself of the illusion that stories have beginnings and endings. Stories have no Beginnings. Nor they have endings. All they have are the facts of life of people making connections, interacting, influencing each other, and spreading out. Stories must not have endings" -Gustav St. Germain - Baccano! - Aniplex, FUNimation Entertainment "Our pasts may be scattered and at times overshadowed by sadness, but they´re also an irrevocable part of our lives and personalities. Even if I could change a single thing, I wouldn´t, because my past was what led me here." -Lilly Satou - Katawa Shoujo - Four Leaf Studios "Life is compartmentalized around triumphs, failures and decisions, where each one stands as its own story. Thinking of life in terms of almost completely isolated events has a tendency to isolate a person, too." -Shizune Hakamichi - Katawa Shoujo - Four Leaf Studios "People find themselves alone often in their lives. and without direction. However, people can take refuge in moments of happiness. They can dot a person's life like stops on a train map. Or waypoints of a memory on a long trail. These individual moments, on reflection, can give a person's life fulfillment. Every festival, and joyful meeting, and joyful parting." -Hisao Nakai - Katawa Shoujo - Four Leaf Studios "When he is pushed to the edge of despair, a man has no choice but to sink, or grasp at the fleeting wisps of hope, fight with all his power against the inevitability of his fate and struggle against the impossible. For even if he fails, at least fail knowing that he dared greatly." -Hisao Nakai - Katawa Shoujo - Four Leaf Studios ""Present" is a fleeting and vague concept at best. The moment between the past and the future? That doesn't really mean anything. Thinking too much about things that don't make sense is a waste of time. That's why living through the present is always the best option. Besides, for us who can't foresee the future and who forget about the past too easily, present is really the only proof of our existence. Even though existence will go on even if you forget about it for a while, it's good to seize the day at least every once in a while. That way... you can confirm that you are, in fact... ...alive." -Hisao Nakai - Katawa Shoujo - Four Leaf Studios "When you first take on a big role, it starts to colour how you see everything. The more devoted you become to that role, the harder it is to imagine how other people will perceive that." -Kaburagi Mizuho - Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru - Caramel Box "Heroes are ideal embodiment's of human morality. People who walk the path of human righteousness are called heroes. People who have no moral compass are not heroes, but self-serving automatons" -Archer - Fate/Extra - Type-Moon & Image Epoch "Does a hero shoulder his heroic destiny from the moment he is born? Is he born as a hero and raised as a hero? Does he never doubt his destiny and always act heroically? Does he perform heroic deeds as though they are natural for him? No, he does not. In order to be a hero, one must be born with that fate, true. However, what truly makes him a hero are his heroic actions , the legacy he carves into the world." -Deus Machina Demonbane - Nitroplus “Humans shouldn’t disregard something they cannot comprehend while also trying to define it. But they still make those definitions in order to protect their own identity. Humans can only recognize reality though the filter called “me” and so they are unable to escape the constraints of their uncanny existence” -Katsuragi Keima – Kami Nomi zo Shiru Sekai Chapter 204 pg 10. "People aren't perfect. And neither is the law; it was created by imperfect people. But the law is the essence of people's desire to protect those they love, those they value." -L Lawliet - M - Death Note: L Change the World "He Knows. He has been defiled by the insanity called truth, and he will never be able to believe again. If he has been poisoned, then that poison is none other than the truth itself. Just as pure Oxygen is harmful for the body, the naked truth has the power to destroy men's minds. Oxygen only becomes air when it is combined with 5 times as much Nitrogen. The truth is the same. Only by diluting it with lies and taking it in small doses can humans maintain a healthy soul." -Tonoo Kōji - Saya no Uta - Nitroplus "The more people talk about their own skills, the more desperate they are--their work should speak for itself." -Nisioin - Death Note Another Note The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases "True, being a man, I felt an instinctive yearning for women. But the yearning in me was little more than a vague dream, hardly different than the yearning in one's heart when one sees a lovely cloud in the Spring sky." -Natsume Soseki - Kokoro (Novel) “There are times in life when you have to distance yourself from those you love, because you love them.” -C.C. - Code Geass - Sunrise, Clamp, Gorō Taniguchi, Ichirō Ōkouchi "Ice contains no future, just the past, away. As if they're alive, everything in the world is sealed up inside, clear and distinct. Ice can preserve all kinds of things that way---cleanly, clearly. That's the essence of ice, the role it plays." -The Iceman - Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman - Haruki Murakami "You cannot gain anything without sacrificing something. In this world it's called Equivalent exchange." -Edward Elric - Fullmetal Alchemist - Hiromu Arakawa "There is no such thing as an ordinary meeting. There isn't once future that hasn't been shaped by the past" -Air Gear Chapter 329 Pg 9 - Oh! Great (Publisher) - Shounen Magazine (Weekly) "The moment man devoured the fruit of knowledge, he sealed his fate... Entrusting his future to the cards, man clings to a dim hope. Yes, the Arcana is the means by which all is revealed... Attaining one's dream requires a stern will and unfailing determination." -Nyx - Persona 3 - Atlus “The passage of time will usually extract the venom from most things and render them harmless. Then, sooner or later, I forget about them.” -The Wind-up Bird Chronicle - Haruki Murakami "Death is not the opposite of life, but a part of it. Say it aloud and it sounds trivial. Just plain common sense. As we live, we breathe death into out lungs, like fine particles of dust." -Firefly - Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman - Haruki Murakami "Your lingering past follows you forever, wherever" -Bleach Official Character Book SOULs - Tite Kubo "Why is it that we have to follow the road that our parents decided for us? We should be more free... Because there should be plenty of roads out there..." -Miyazawa Yukine - Clannad Visual Novel - Jun Maeda & Key "Only courage in the face of doubt can lead one to the answer..." -Nyx - Persona 3 - Atlus "Do you know why the snow is white? because it forgot it's own color. -C.C.- Code Geass - Sunrise, Clamp, Gorō Taniguchi, Ichirō Ōkouchi "Death is always with you... Do not be afraid." -Bleach Official Character Book SOULs "There is both joy and wonder in coming to understand another..." -Nyx - Persona 3 - Atlus "O pitiful shadow lost in the darkness... Bringing torment and pain to others... A damned soul wallowing in your sin... Perhaps it is time to die?" -Jigoku Shojo AKA Hell Girl "Some people believe in evil spirits, and some don't. but people's individual beliefs gave little to do with reality." -Bleach Official Character Book SOULs - Tite Kubo "One of life's greatest blessings is the freedom to pursue one's goals." -Nyx - Persona 3 - Atlus "When going into battle one must decide whether one is fighting a battle to protect one's life, or a battle to protect one's pride." -Jūshirō Ukitake - Tite Kubo - Bleach "The world changes. It turns... Each time it touches the sun and the moon... ...It takes a new shape. The one thing that does not change... ...is my powerlessness. It's turning. If fate is a millstone... ...then we are the grist. There is nothing we can do. So I wish for strength. If I cannot protect them from the wheel... ...then give me a strong blade... ...and enough strength... ...TO SHATTER FATE." -Bleach Official Character Book SOULs - Tite Kubo "It requires great courage to look at oneself honestly, and forge one's own path..." -Nyx - Persona 3 - Atlus "True, I've given up on the real world. However, I haven't given up on myself. The world doesn't get to decide whether my life is boring, fun, or ordinary. That's my decision to make. As long as I have the will, nothing is impossible." -Keima Katsuragi - The World God Only Knows II Episode 7 - Wakaki Tamiki & Manglobe "Is Destiny like a cloud the floats in a predetermined current? Or is it able to get on the current that it chooses itself? Either way, we might just end up at the same place." -Hyuuga Neji - Naruto - Mashashi Kishimoto "To simply find a meaning to life is quite difficult. But, living doesn't mean that you're alone. People are there to support people, and those people can begin to stand on their own. and once they can stand on their own, they can move forward." -Yoshino Yuusuke - Clannad Visual Novel - Jun Maeda - Key "In the face of disaster lies opportunity for renewal." -Nyx - Persona 3 - Atlus "It will be alright. All lifeforms have the power to restore themselves and the wish to live. If you decide to live, anywhere can be heaven, because you're alive. There will be chances to be happy everywhere. As long as the Sun, Moon and Earth exist...it will be alright." -Yui Ikari - Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion - Yoshiyuki Sadamoto "The one who releases himself from the emotional attachment to a desired outcome is, ironically, the one most likely to realize the outcome." Erik Von Markovik AKA Mystery - The Mystery Method "Why do you suppose we only feel compelled to chase the ones who run away?" -Vicomte De Valmont, Les Liaison Dangereuses. "Attraction is not a choice." -David Deangelo "Don't ask for it. Go out and win it. Do that and you'll be rewarded." -Renton Thurston - Eureka 7 - Bones "The presence of others can make people suffer... and yet... They can't live alone... Everyone... Needs someone..." -Keima Katsuragi - The World God Only Knows - Wakaki Tamiki "Make the fire, nightfall is coming. Light the fire, Darkness is coming.
