For anyone who does not know what Yu-Gi-Oh is, it is an anime. I grew
up watching the show and playing the card game with all the other kids
in the neighborhood. Just recently I found my old Yu-Gi-Oh deck of
cards. I'm amazed I still have them! As I was looking through the cards I
had an idea. I can do tarot readings with these cards!
So I did
just that. It was surprisingly accurate but then again, I was reading
for myself. I know myself so it was easier to read the cards.
But
holding and doing a tarot reading with the Yu-Gi-Oh cards got me
thinking. These cards and elements from the anime would be perfect to
use in divination.
The phrase "heart of the cards" is used a lot
in the dub version of Yu-Gi-Oh. It is basically referring to some unseen
energy that, when called upon sincerely, brings the card that the
duelist (person playing the card game) desperately needs to the front of
the deck. Whenever a good character from the show looked like he or she
was about to lose, they would believe in the heart of the cards and all
would end well (usually).
This concept of the heart of the cards
would work perfectly with tarot readings. Before you begin to shuffle
the deck, hold the deck in your hand, focus all of your energy into the
deck and say something like "I believe in the heart of the cards."
You'll get the cards you need after that. This probably is not a new or
unique idea but I felt like making a post about it.
