Can you guess for yourself? When you can guess - choose the best time for fortune telling.



Any fortune-telling is not carried out so often and is not only an unusual, but also a rather intimate action. As a rule, they prefer to guess alone, not telling anyone not only about the results, but also about the very fact of fortune telling. These factors leave a veil of mystery over fortune-telling, and there are always more questions on this topic than answers. Isn't it bad to guess? Is it possible for another person to guess? And without his consent or even knowledge? Will I "guess" my fate? What does the Church think about this?

Let's start with the last question. The opinion of the official Orthodox Church is unambiguously negative: one cannot guess, this is a diabolical act.

Book Deuteronomy 18:10-12:"... you should not have ... a soothsayer, a fortuneteller, a soothsayer, a sorcerer, a charmer, summoning spirits, a magician and questioning the dead; for everyone who does this is abominable before the Lord"

Leviticus 19:26:"... do not tell fortunes and do not guess"

Saint Basil the Great:“Do not be curious about the future, but make good use of the present. For what profit is it to you to anticipate the command? If the future brings you something good, then it will come, although you did not know in advance. And if it is mournful, why languish with grief until the time? Do you want to be sure about the future? Fulfill what is prescribed by the Gospel Law and expect the enjoyment of blessings.

This attitude naturally arose from the idea that everything is in the hands of God. So, we should not try to change anything or find out in advance. With regard to every person who has come into this world, there is the providence of God, and all attempts to resist it are from the evil one. Churchmen especially condemn divination during fasts and major Christian holidays. However, many folk divination is held precisely at Christmas or Easter. How can these two opposing positions be reconciled?

Perhaps the answer lies in the method of divination. Invoking spirits, demons, souls of the dead in order to find out about their future is much more like a demonic temptation from the point of view of Christian teaching. Here is the weather forecast. In a sense, this is a form of divination. We look at the cloudy sky and wonder: will it rain tomorrow? The mechanism of this phenomenon is exactly the same as in ordinary fortune telling and even online fortune telling. We listen in ourselves in a moment of silence and let our experience - our subconscious, if you like, intuition - make some decision. What is the goddamn thing here?

It is interesting that fortune-telling existed and exists among absolutely all peoples - from blond Scandinavians to the most black-skinned Papuans. Fortune-telling can be put outside of religion, taken simply as a vital necessity. By the way, the fact that fortune-telling has survived to this day is the best evidence of their effectiveness, the accuracy of the results.

Fortune telling can be compared with self-programming for a successful result. With a favorable interpretation, a person tunes in to the good, to the positive, and, as a rule, he receives it. If the result of fortune-telling leaves much to be desired, then the person considers the hidden case more carefully, devotes more time and effort to it, better concentrates on it, being afraid to make a mistake. Of course, this will also give a positive result. We can say that fortune-telling is contraindicated only for overly impressionable and weak-willed people. Those who do not know how and do not want to withstand the blows of fate, dutifully await their fate. It is better for such people to tune in to the future without any fortune-telling, using verbal statements (affirmations) of a necessarily optimistic nature.

There is also such an aspect as the conscientiousness and decency of fortune-tellers. In the 19th century, when fortune-telling became widespread in the High Society, some cunning young ladies bribed fortune-tellers and they predicted unhappy love to their rivals, which programmed them for failure. Therefore, it is better to guess for yourself, on your own. The result will be even more accurate than that of a professional fortune teller, because no one knows you better than yourself. In addition, it is known that we ourselves tend to see more favorable figures when divining on wax, tea, coffee grounds. If we have a moment to choose which interpretation to accept, we usually choose the more favorable one - and rightly so. Fortune tellers, on the other hand, are prone to tragedy and theatricality, their task is to amaze, shock, and convince you of their power. Therefore, they often choose an interpretation that is less successful for you. In addition, banal envy is also possible here.

So, determine your type of temperament, and if you have a strong enough psyche to perceive a negative interpretation as a warning, and not as a sentence, then fortune-telling will only benefit you. With the development of Internet technologies, there is no need to memorize volumes of interpretations and meanings of figures. Now you can use any free online divination. We wish you to discover new horizons in this lesson and diversify your leisure time with pleasant entertainment. Although, if you take fortune-telling seriously enough, then it will no longer be a toy, but a real session of psychotherapy, where you yourself act as a psychologist.

There are a variety of answers to this question: from “No way” to “Why not? Everyone is doing it." Let's figure out what's what here. A person who knows how to guess, first of all, must decide how he himself relates to this - as a hobby, entertainment, hobby, or as a profession.

Obviously, each of us has fun in our free time. The accountant comes home from the office and, for example, starts to embroider. Or a locksmith after a shift gets together with friends and plays chess. Or even not with friends, but with a computer. A person of any profession is unlikely to be engaged in it outside of working hours. Therefore, a professional fortune teller has no desire to play with tarot cards (runes, coffee grounds, etc.) at his leisure. It does not matter whether he will guess for himself or for someone else - why? He has other hobbies and hobbies - embroider, play chess, sculpt from clay, fish, bake pies.

But those for whom fortune-telling is one of the many interests, they are happy to make layouts for themselves. They chose fortune-telling as a tool for exploring their lives and solving urgent problems - this is akin to reading books on psychology, attending various trainings and seminars, doing yoga or meditation. And if it's still free - and guessing yourself is certainly free - then it seems that happiness is very close. A divination tool becomes almost a magic wand, one wave of which erases all problems.

Features of divination for yourself

And here lies the main catch of such fortune-telling: a person becomes dependent on them. The same ones turn from an assistant into a drug. A person digs into self-study, makes layouts every day, gets lost, confused. He ceases to believe in himself and transfers responsibility for his choice to the cards - "as they say, so I will live." The same applies, for example, to reading horoscopes for the day - a person programs his path, having learned some information, and then he blames all failures on fortune telling, on a forecast in a newspaper or on what they said on TV.

This is what supporters of the opinion mean that one cannot guess oneself. They are afraid of forecasts and do not understand the essence of fortune-telling. And any fortune-telling simply provides information about the situation, but does not give out absolutely correct algorithms for achieving happiness and does not sentence a person to an undesirable future. A professional, on the other hand, knows how it works and why it is necessary to lay out cards, and therefore is not fond of fortune-telling to oneself. If necessary, he will turn to another master - he will prepare questions, realize the need for answers, and pay for the consultation.

When a person guesses for himself, he is forced to play two opposite roles - the master and the client. He must first see the answer that is provided by the cards or runes, and then interpret, interpret it to his problem. But he is also inside the problem, and the subjective factor will necessarily intervene in the interpretation of the answer - the “fortune teller to himself” will not see the full picture of what is happening. The effectiveness of fortune-telling will decrease, not to mention the fact that a person may not like the result, and he will begin to guess every day, trying to convince himself of what he wants to hear.

The professional, again, is aware of this nuance, so he will go to his colleague. He will hear a clear, objective answer from the master, and he will take it accordingly.

The main thing is not to abuse

So those who believe that fortune-telling to oneself "does not work", at best, speak of the problem of information perception. Divination itself - with a correctly posed question and a competent scenario - will be as accurate as any other fortune-telling. The higher forces do not care about whom a person asks - about himself or about someone else. There is another esoteric moment here.

It lies in the fact that you should not disturb the higher powers too often and especially over trifles, without giving anything in return.

Failure to comply with this rule does not mean that fortune-telling will stop telling the truth. The fact is that, having received a lot and not giving anything to himself when fortune-telling, a person violates his own energy, and sometimes karmic balance. And for the sake of balance, sooner or later they will demand something from him - for example, (they will cut his salary, lose his wallet, not sign a contract, the car will suddenly break down, etc.).

Therefore, do not abuse divination to yourself and become attached to them. Especially if this is entertainment - a person is a priori not serious about what he is doing, while asking important questions. He may get shocking answers and be confused.

The bottom line is this: you can guess for yourself. There are no objective prohibitions on this. It is only important to understand all the above nuances of such work and understand why you are doing it. You can also have fun with the help of fortune-telling, clearly realizing your attitude to the answers you receive. The main thing is not to confuse play and work. Any person who wants to truly and deeply understand their problem will turn to a professional for help. It will be more honest, more reliable, and more efficient.

The process of divination is always shrouded in a veil of mystery. But really, what is it? This question is asked by many, especially since fortune-telling is available to almost everyone. There are many free sites on the Internet where you can tell fortunes online, and all newspapers are full of ads offering such services. Is it possible to participate in this process and how harmless is it? There is no single answer.

The Church, referring to the Bible, answers this question - categorically it is impossible. After all, only God can control the fate of man. Guessing, we are trying to somehow influence what is beyond our control. Hence the conclusion - divination from the evil one. But people still guess. There is not a single nation where from time immemorial there have not been soothsayers and fortune-tellers. So, there are some grounds for this. Most likely, the survivability of this phenomenon is explained by concrete results. Divination can be interpreted as a guess. It has long been a tradition to make a wish on New Year's Eve. Having predicted for ourselves good luck, health, wealth, a happy future, we program ourselves to achieve these goals. Turning to the sorcerers, we entrust our fate to them. Using some of their algorithms, they predict, and at the same time they also have a great ability to inspire. If they prophesy something bad, we will believe and thereby give ourselves an attitude to the realization of the negative. Probably, this is a sin, because only the Almighty has the right to control a person. There is such a superstition that when a person guesses, he predicts his future. They also say that each person has 7 options for fate, and with the help of fortune-telling, he chooses the worst of them. It is difficult to agree with this, because it happens that it is good forecasts that come true. Many Slavic divinations were performed at Christmas, the old New Year, Christmas time. This tradition is still alive, especially since it is not difficult to find a description of different methods of divination on the Internet. In a festive atmosphere, when you are expecting only pleasant surprises, positive changes in life, it is simply impossible to predict something bad for yourself. Looking into the future for yourself, you will see the desired groom in a cup of coffee grounds, and in the shadows cast on the wall by wax figures or burning paper, an omen of imminent good changes. Such fortune-telling will not harm, but will only add optimism. The sorceress has a different task - she wants to take power over you, make you feel the need for it. Like a good actress, she will act out a dramatic scene to convince her that she is right, to shock with her insight. In reality, she is just a good psychologist and knows how to manipulate. If a person is easily suggestible, nothing good can be expected from such fortune-telling. He will most likely perceive the general phrases of the soothsayer as a tragic verdict. If you belong to this type of people, then it is better not to go to a fortuneteller.

The conclusion suggests itself: if you do not unconditionally succumb to someone else's influence, but tend to analyze everything you hear and perceive the predicted negative as a warning, then fortune telling will not hurt you. Treat this process as a game, an interesting entertainment, a way to diversify your leisure time.

Guessing yourself - easier or harder

Neophytes in the Tarot often ask: "Is it possible to guess the Tarot for yourself?". Some experienced practitioners answer them that, of course, it is impossible. And they are right. Other, no less experienced practitioners answer that you can guess yourself. And they are also right, just like the first ones. What is the peculiarity of fortune-telling to oneself, is it possible to do this or not? Let's figure it out.

When not to


You don’t see information about yourself, it is closed, cards always lie when guessing to yourself, and in general it is dangerous. This is usually said by those who call not to guess on the cards for themselves. A person, guessing to himself, is too emotionally involved in this process - and this becomes a big obstacle to the purity of interpretation. Often the most matching in frequency with the state of the fortuneteller's card are pulled out.

For those who are afraid, the deck will good-naturedly throw terrible cards. Confident in a good fate for himself, he will pull out cards sparkling with joy. The seeker of consolation will draw out maternally caressing lasso. The most iridescent cards of the suit of Cups will fall into the hands of those who want mutual love. A person, of course, can be afraid, can be sure that Fortune favors him, can wait for support and protection and love from the people around him.

A person is allowed to be in any state, but not when he picks up a deck of cards. In these moments, he should be maximally detached from any problems, states, as well as from himself, he should be pure perception and silent inner silence. Naturally, this state is difficult to achieve if you lay out the cards on issues that worry you a lot. When your state is not a ringing emptiness, it is better to entrust someone else, not yourself, to ask about your share.

Usually, the issues that we are most worried about relate to loved ones and their attitude towards us, as well as all issues related to the fate of these closest ones - for example, the health of children and parents, successful passing of exams by children, etc.

In these cases, if we are not detached in the process of fortune-telling, we draw the wrong cards, but if we still get those negative arcana from the deck, we really want to see in a positive way: “Will my son go to First Med this year on budget? So, fell out, Hanged Man, Ten and. Swords about intelligence, a dozen about completion, probably, will do, even though it will be hard.

When can


Is it possible to read Tarot cards for yourself? Yes, you can. In case you are not emotionally involved in the topic you are asking about. If you don’t care what answer the cards give, if you treat the alignment for yourself as a layout for an outsider, whose hardships and joys are deeply indifferent to you. Then you can guess. In this case, you will not only not draw the wrong cards (given that most of your forecasts are still accurate), but also do not add anything superfluous and illusory to the interpretation of the drawn arcana.

Technique to help make card answers true

For me personally, for an impartial state, observing my own breathing helps. For inhaling and exhaling, for how the air enters through the nose, moves through the body, and also for how it then leaves the body. As well as observing the point at which inhalation becomes exhalation, and exhalation becomes inhalation. Without holding the breath, without lengthening it, without changing its rhythm.

At the same time, I try to be as focused as possible on the breathing process, at the same time alert and relaxed. This helps at least a little to stop thoughts, reduce their frequency. This is one of the simplest meditation techniques, the most ancient, the most effective. The maximum possible inner silence helps in the process of divination.

Simple layouts for yourself


It is useful for yourself to make diagnostic layouts - for example, a layout for the near future - you can find an article about it on the site. Or the diagnostic technique of Alena Solodilova, I met this technique in one of her books, it will allow you to find out what qualities you have developed at this stage of life, what qualities you have worked at the previous stage of life, which ones are inherent in you from birth, which ones you ignore or you do not notice, and also what kind of partner you are attracting. The author, of course, describes it somewhat differently.

Tarot diagnostics "Energy of the four elements"

Technique:

  1. Select from the deck of 4 Queens (for women). And put them in a separate pile.
  2. You select the men's court cards from the deck and put them in another pile.
  3. You mix the Queens and ask the question: “What am I now?”, - lay them out in a closed row, first put the card that you liked the most, then the second, according to the same principle, the third and fourth. You open cards.
  4. From the male pile of cards, draw one card into a closed one with the question: “Which partner am I attracting?”, And then open it too.

Interpretation:

The card in the first position (we are now talking about Korolev) will be responsible for the current period of time and tell you the qualities of which element you are paying attention to in this period of time, what your attention is now devoted to.

For example, the Queen of Swords will say that now your independence and freedom are more important for you, you devote a lot of time to the implementation of your plans and ideas, spend time on learning.

The card in the second position is responsible for the stage of life you have recently passed and the qualities that you have successfully used and mastered on it.

For example, he will say that you pay great attention to issues of life support, motherhood, caring for loved ones, but this is not in the first place for you at the moment.

The card in the third position will talk about the qualities inherent in you from birth, to which you do not attach much importance and almost do not notice.

Here he will tell us that you naturally manage to be in the spotlight, and cheerfulness and optimism are qualities that are probably well visible to others, but are not of great value to you. Since childhood, these traits have become so close to your personality that you do not attach much importance to them.

The card in this position will tell you about those traits, the manifestation of which is either forbidden or painful for you, or you ignore their manifestation, or you do not like the manifestation of these traits in others, you condemn them.

The Queen of Cups can say that sensual and romantic manifestations are difficult for you, you can be somewhat cold towards loved ones, and overly sentimental young ladies seem stupid and naive to you.


"Male" court cards

The male card will tell you which partner you are currently attracting. The King is a mature person who has achieved heights in the manifestation of his suit, the Knight is an actively developing person, striving to become a king. Page - a person at the very beginning of his life path or infantile.

Match the suit of the male card with the position on which lies the Queen of the same suit. Correlation with the suit in the first position suggests that the partner you attract helps you develop, you can learn a lot from him. On the second - you have common interests, you can support each other, you are comfortable together. On the third - a person merges with the background landscape, you do not notice him, he is not of great value to you. Fourth, interacting with this person can be painful for you.

Pay attention to the distribution of elements in female cards, the alternation of male and female suits (MZHMZH or ZHMZHM) is considered the most correct - in this case, the person feels the most balanced. In the case of the accumulation of two male or two female elements nearby (MZHZHM, ZHZHMM, MMZHZH, ZHMMZH), a person may complain about the inharmonious state at the moment.


Of course, this technique does not reflect the full complexity of your personality, it is too general, but nevertheless, it can be useful for introspection. Is it worth it and is it possible to guess the Tarot for yourself using this and similar techniques? Yes, definitely. For men, the diagnostic sequence is the same, but instead of four Queens, four Kings are used, and Queens and Pages can be selected from female cards (as an immature, dependent person)

Unfortunately, the Tarot deck did not provide us with a variety of female images, so the intermediate stage between the Queen and the Page (which, despite being male, sometimes also denote young girls in the deck) will either have to be skipped or replaced with some other cards.

Of course, if you wondered if it was possible to guess on Tarot cards for yourself, then you know that guessing is somewhat easier for yourself - because you are a familiar person for yourself. And more difficult - because it is difficult to remain emotionally uninvolved in the process of divination. But still, it is advisable to strive to ensure that your interpretations are equally accurate, both if you are guessing to yourself, and if you are laying out cards for people who have come to you for advice, this is the professionalism and skill of the tarologist .

The spade suit during the Middle Ages symbolized chivalry and was originally depicted in the form of a grape leaf (the word "vini" comes from "wine").

Is it possible to guess for yourself on the cards

In a difficult situation, I want to hear from someone wise advice and recommendations regarding future prospects. Seeking help from a psychic can be costly, and where to find it - so that trust does not deceive. Is it possible to guess for yourself on the cards, and how reliable will such an “unprofessional” forecast turn out to be?

To believe or not to believe - in anticipation of a miracle

Trying to know the future, people have resorted to divination for thousands of years. Many "esoteric experiments" can only be carried out independently. For example, to see the betrothed in the mirror at Christmas time. Such understandable curiosity does not threaten any punishments from above. But then guessing on the cards on your own is an innocent entertainment that will definitely not spoil fate.

There is a sound grain in this conclusion, but adjusted for subjectivity. Throwing cards at himself, a person experiences a huge temptation to adjust the conditions of the problem to a ready-made answer. The one you really want to hear. First, decide that it was fate that answered like that, then program yourself for certain actions. Well, if they are good, but if not?

There is another "pitfall". This is the moment of payment, which is very difficult to deal with when deciding whether it is possible to guess for yourself on the cards. The help of higher powers to a non-professional can turn into a “forced” collection of debts - in the form of trouble at work, illness and other troubles. Therefore, fortune-telling should not be abused in any case.

Is it worth guessing to yourself - and what should be avoided at the same time?

  • First and foremost, one should not disturb the subtle world too intrusively and persistently. Don't ask the same question multiple times in a row. Do not "knock" out of fate the answer you want to hear - the result may be the opposite of what was expected.
  • Do not whisper when divining incomprehensible conspiracies read in open Internet sources. In general, do not call on anyone for help and do not make any promises to the Universe - it is possible that they will be caught at their word and presented with a bill at an unexpected moment.
  • Use cards only on really important occasions, but do not turn every evening into an endless “meeting”. Learn to make decisions on your own, not with someone else's tips.

And finally: when deciding whether it is possible to guess for yourself, do not forget to treat this with a slight self-irony. Fate can always be changed by your own thoughts and actions, therefore
