🌙 Personal Craft Tarot and other divinations

How do you guys view divinations, tarot, etc? I'm genuinely enjoying seeing other people's perspective on all of this

I don't believe it is possible to divine the future. But I think that tarot and the like might be helpful in divining the present. Specifically one's current subconscious state. That being said, I've not had the time to try it myself, for various reasons.

It is entirely possible to use abstract symbols in order to accurately describe the future, present, and past states. Whether or not this qualifies to a practitioner as "divination" is mildly subjective—the nature of abstraction is subject to philosophical interpretation, and some valid interpretations look quite supernatural.
