INTRODUCTION:

I believe that cartomancy is probably one of the oldest forms of divination. I

believe that tarot likely evolved from mystics and traveling gypsies using good ole
playing cards to read peoples futures. This is just my own hunch in regards to
such! I don't really need to give you a whole history lesson about cartomancy.
You can always do much research online if you desire to know the history more
in depth. Further more this book is to help you get acquainted with this form of
divination and delve deeper into its understanding, to find out if this type of
divination can be worthwhile and useful for you.

What is cartomancy?
It is a form of divination using simple playing cards; thru numerology, card
placements and definitions; to determine advice, and information about the
past, the present and also the future.
Now pull out your card deck and lets have a look!!

CARD MEANINGS:
If you were to do your own research you would find that the card meanings
have changed over time. You would also find that different readers use different
systems and meanings to divulge or interpret the cards. These definitions that I
am providing you are from my own research, my own personal interpretation of
what a card means; which most of the cards are the usual meanings while others
are through my own understanding from years of reading with playing cards
and also understanding that one must use numerology to better understand a
card as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jokers: I like to call these the Fool Cards of the Deck. Not everyone uses the Joker
in Cartomancy readings but I do, because it adds another element of
understanding to the readings that I find can be very helpful. It’s really your
choice whether you use them or not.

adventurous. A card that can urge you to expect the unexpected. It is a card of

Advice and Do’s or Dont’s

*Don't get discouraged with the process; practice makes perfect. Start out with
one cards first and if you paid for the kit, make sure to watch the videos. (If you
have bought this book and are interested in the kit see more information at the
conclusion of this book)

* Do have fun with the processes.

* Do keep a journal.

* Do make sure to ask the right questions; but furthermore understand the
question you have asked to be able to understand fully the answer given.

* Don’t put all your faith in the cards, although 9 times of 10 the answer is the
unadulterated truth, never forsake your own intuition or freewill; the cards are
meant to aid you, not debilitate you.

* Do see the whole story the cards present when doing full spreads, try to see it
as a whole, the more you can do this, the more information you can receive.

*Do feel free to add up the numbers in a spread to get more information,
numbers play a huge part in the energy of cartomancy; in the videos I show you
exactly how to do this.

* Do try your best to keep a positive frame of mind when reading the cards.

* Don't be discouraged by negative cards, there is always a silver lining, Your

guides only want the best for you!
*An Interesting quirk:
Cartomancy’s energy often desires for you to manifest your best life. Your cards
want the best for you and you should fullheartedly believe that or things could
start getting confusing. Nice little story: It wasn't until this recent happening
that I realized what was happening. I have been reading cartomancy for many
years and I had found that there was certain periods in my life in which the
cards kept giving me the same scenarios, the same advice, the same situation
over and over again. I would get frustrated with the cards and say “Why do you
kept telling me this, no matter what I ask???!!!” So when that happens usually I
would just say to myself ok time to give the cards a break, which you must listen
to your intuition because at times that is the point, especially if you are misusing
or overusing the cards. Anyhow, after a time away from the cards I would start
again. Then it occurred to me, these cards can help you manifest; because I then
realized that what the cards kept saying over and over, came to pass. If there is
a desire on your heart or a path in your life that is destined to be or so strong;
the cards will keep bringing it to your attention until you finally get it! Because
they desire for you to manifest this into your life. The more you think on a thing
the more likely it is to manifest into your life. We live in a world of free well but
I also believe that certain things we are destined for. However, certain things can
not come into your world until you will it, by showing the universe you are
ready, by claiming the truth of what is. Well who is they? They: Spirit guides,
Ancestors, Angels, Ascended Masters, The Ethers- Akashic Records- Your higher
Self!
