I'm with you guys.
I'm astounded by questions like, "Why didn't he text me back right away after I texted him?" and "How do I feel about X?"
It's not just that tarot is replacing communications; it is being used as a substitute for introspection as well.
If you want to know how you feel...try feeling.
eta: Papercut, I know a woman who closed her successful business within a week of asking her pendulum "should I keep the shop open?" The thing on the chain swung sideways and ... three employees out of work, and it was a clothing consignment shop so all the consigners lost their stuff. I don't agree that over reliance on, let us say, "magical" or "metaphysical" tools like tarot and pendulums is harmless.
