Cartomancy (Reading with Playing Cards)

How To Read A Regular Deck Of Playing Cards As Tarot Cards

Before we get started with today's blog post, at the end of this blog are helpful links where I got some of this information from and even a video. So, let's get started...

If you can't afford tarot cards or you have parents that are religious, then this blog post is perfect for you. 

Cartomancy is known as Gypsy playing cards (fortune-telling). Gypsy's would use a regular deck of playing cards as tarot cards and they would use this as a form of divination.

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.

Cartomancy is one of the oldest of the more common forms of fortune-telling. In English-speaking countries the most common form of cartomancy is generally tarot card reading. Tarot cards are almost exclusively used for this purpose in these places.

Cartomancy using standard playing cards was the most popular form of providing fortune-telling card readings in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries.

In English-speaking countries, Tarot cards are more commonly used, however, a standard deck of Anglo-American bridge/poker playing cards (i.e., 52-card, four-suit set) can also be used; the deck is often augmented with jokers, and even with the blank card found in many packaged decks.

In France, the 32-card piquet playing-card deck is most typically used in cartomancy readings, although, the 52 card deck can also be used. (A piquet deck can be a 52-card deck with all of the 2's through the 6's removed. This leaves all of the 7's through the 10's, the face cards, and the aces.)

NOTE: 
There are no major Arcana cards in this deck. They were invented in the 15th century. However, they only began to emerge in the 18th century. In the major Arcana cards, Strength is traditionally the 11th card and Justice is the 8th card. However, the influential Ryder-Waite-Smith deck switched the position of these cards in order to make them a better fit with the astrological correspondences worked out by the Hermetic-Order of The Golden Dawn, under which the 8th card is associated with Leo and the 11th card is associated with Libra. Today, many decks use this numbering particularly in the English-Speaking world. Both placements are considered valid.

Methods:
The most popular method of cartomancy using a standard playing deck is referred to as the Wheel of Fortune. Here, the reader removes cards at random and assigns significance to them based on the order they were chose. Though the interpretation of various cards varies by region, the common significators for the future are as follows:

Most Common Interpretations in Cartomancy

Card	Significance
King of Hearts	A man over 35, with sandy, dark blond, or light brown hair, with brown, blue or hazel eyes. Usually a family member or other loved one. Paternal and family-oriented.  [Fair-haired young man. Auburn or Grey Hair with Hazel or Green Eyes.]
King of Diamonds	A man over 35, with red or light blond hair with blue, green or gray eyes, Usually a wealthy man in an authority position.  [Fair or grey-haired man over 40. Fair to Red or Gold Hair and Blue or Grey Eyes.]
King of Clubs	A man over 35, with medium or dark brown hair, with brown, blue or hazel eyes. Usually a married business man (although business could have a sexual, rather than commercial, interpretation.)  [Dark-haired young man. Brown Hair and Light Brown Eyes.]
King of Spades	A man over 35, with dark brown to black hair, and dark brown eyes. Usually a widower or divorced man, or a man from a foreign country. Ambitious and powerful, can be arrogant and deceptive.  [Dark-haired man over 40. Dark Hair and Eyes, Dark Complexion.]
Queen of Hearts	A woman over 18, with sandy, dark blond, or light brown hair, with brown, blue or hazel eyes. Usually a family member or other loved one. Maternal and family-oriented.  [Fair-haired young woman. Auburn or Grey Hair with Hazel or Green Eyes.]
Queen of Diamonds	A woman over 18, with red or light blond hair with blue, green or gray eyes, Usually a wealthy woman in an authority position.  [Fair or grey haired woman over 40. Fair to Red or Gold Hair and Blue or Grey Eyes.]
Queen of Clubs	A woman over 18, with medium or dark brown hair, with brown, blue or hazel eyes. Usually a business woman or social butterfly.  [Dark-haired young woman. Brown Hair and Light Brown Eyes.]
Queen of Spades	A woman over 18, with dark brown to black hair, and dark brown eyes. Usually a widow or divorced woman, or a woman from a foreign country. Ambitious and intelligent, can be cold, calculating, or spiteful.  [Dark-haired woman over 40. Dark Hair and Eyes, Dark Complexion.]

Again, reading playing cards is known as cartomancy.

Did you realize that each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history? Spades = King David; Clubs = Alexander the Great; Hearts = Charlemagne; and Diamonds = Julius Caesar.

Reading with playing cards is easy because the tarot layouts and divinatory meanings are easy to adapt to reading regular playing cards. Clubs = Wands, Hearts = Cups, Diamonds = Coins, and Spades = Swords. To do a reading, simply shuffle and cut in your usual method, and deal the spread of your choice.

Here is one method:

Begin by separating the Kings or the Queens from the deck. Lay them side by side in this order: Hearts, Clubs, Diamonds, and Spades. Assign a name of someone you are involved with or interested in to each card. You can choose Unknown for the leftover cards. Put the cards back in the deck, shuffle, and ask a question.

Deal out the remaining cards face up, laying them out one at a time. Proceed across four stacks and return to the beginning if required. Your question is answered when you deal a matching suit on one of the Kings or Queens.

Ask another question and start laying down cards from the beginning of the row again, stopping again when a suit matches a King or Queen. After all of the cards have been dealt, pick up each stack and count the number of cards of each suit. Hearts denote love, clubs indicate vitality and liveliness, diamonds indicate money, and spades show contemplation and thought. The more you have of one suit indicates the predominant influence or the potential of that relationship. Look up the meanings of the cards on the reference chart for a deeper understanding.

CARTOMANCY - FORTUNE TELLING USING PLAYING CARDS

Tarot Cards Using Playing Cards?

Playing "The Card Game" Paranormal Game

Playing "The Card Game" Paranormal Game

The Card Game is a paranormal ritual that is used to contact the spirits of the dead.

 The Card Game can be played with any number of people. You will need a deck of playing cards, a candle and some salt.

Step 1: Turn off all the lights in the room and light the candle.

 Step 2: Sprinkle some salt on the playing cards.

Step 3: Each person who is playing the game must shuffle the cards.

Step 4: Lay out the cards, face down, in three groups of six cards. Each group of cards should be 2 columns and three rows, as in the picture above.

Step 5: You ask, “Are the spirits willing to speak with us tonight.”

Step 6: The person who asked the question hovers their hand over each of the cards until you feel heat coming from one of the cards. Oddly enough, you want to select the card with heat radiating from it. It’s weird but the cards do give off heat when doing this. You can feel the heat coming off of them when you hover your hands over them; this is why you much move your hand slowly.

Step 7: Turn over that card. The spirits will communicate through the cards.

             Hearts- Means Yes. 

             Spades- Means No. 

             Diamonds- Means Maybe. 

             Clubs- Means I Don't Know.               

Each person who is playing can ask questions. Each time, only the person who asks the question must turn over the card. If anything bad starts to happen, end the game immediately. If you hear whispering or feel something touch you, stop playing.

To end the game, you say, “Goodbye” and blow out the candle. Then you sprinkle salt over the cards again and shuffle them.

Warning: We suggest that you do not play the Card Game.

Other Games: The Midnight Game, Answer Man, Bath Game…
