I read somewhere about a working that used the tarot cards to help with a binding protection. Have you heard of this?
You can use any props to help with spellwork, Tarot or non-Tarot. You can use lego or pasta, if you like. Any props, any physical objects you use in spells don't actually do anything, they are merely a focus for your attention. It is the power of a disciplined and concentrated mind that makes spells work, which is why "spellkits for teens" don't work. None of them emphasise that it isn't the coloured candles and the ribbons that do the work, but your MIND.
It takes years of training to develop the kind of mental focus that creates noticeable changes outside of your own head. Start off with a simple training exercise: have a new candle, sit in a closed room, and visualise a spark on the wick, starting to blacken the wick. Have a thermometer handy. If you either create a spark, or the temperature of the room suddenly goes up when the temperature outside the room stays the same, then you have the focus to move onto more elaborate magic, such as that involving others.
If you wanted to use a card as a mental linchpin for a binding, may I suggest the Eight Swords?
