I have read a lot of posts about tarot cards just being paper and ink. I get that, I really do. It's what we do with them that counts and maybe that's why so many who don't know about tarot are afraid. It's not the cards they're afraid of, but the knowledge they think we have and what we do WITH the cards. The power they think we can invoke with them.
I mean something as benign as a pot can cook a meal or...be a weapon! So maybe it isn't surprising those who don't know about tarot can be spooked the same way they are re religions or cultures they don't understand.
So, is it our duty as readers to explain to those who question, or even scoff, how we personally use it? Or not?
After all, tarot is only as good, bad or indifferent as the person working with the cards....or not?
