Nocturnal Lure
Ho do countries, cultures and goverments look at Tarot?
When I first got into looking online about Tarot I noticed that in some countries reading for other people is actually forbidden by law (law on fortune telling). And in several cultures Tarot is viewed as something bad or even evil (interesting since there ae populair theories of Tarot having originated from cloisters as a mental training or meditation device) Now I am from the Netherlands which has a reasonably open aditude towards...wel everything I guess, which in my opinion is great.
There are Tarot courses, even schools that specialize in parapsychology and the "supernatural". So no worries here. Most people here however see Tarot as something for housewives or charlatans, viewing the concept with mild skepticism, but no serious disaproval. Many people are interested and often without adding any specific vallue to Tarot like to have a reading done, to which they often react very open minded, though few readilly admit (openly) that "it works".
-My view on the Dutch (Holland A.K.A. The Netherlands) attitude towards Tarot
So what's the attitude towards Tarot where you live????
