Two of Coins: Tarot card meaning. Tarot card by date of birth - compatibility of partners, character, fate Direct position of the card
Tarot cards are the most famous and most mysterious of all known divination systems. It is still not known both the exact time and place of appearance of these cards. Here you will find several online fortune telling using the tarot method. With the help of the given layouts, you can become more familiar with this mysterious system of fortune telling and self-knowledge.
The classic tarot deck consists of 78 cards and is divided into 2 parts:
- Major Arcana Tarot - 22 cards
- Minor Arcana Tarot - 56 cards
The major or “great”, “major” arcana of the tarot are numbered from 0 to 21.
The minor or “minor” arcana of the tarot are divided into 4 suits, or “suites”:
- Cups (bowls)
- Pentacles (coins, discs, denarii)
- Wands (staffs, scepters)
There are 14 cards in each suit of the tarot deck. These are numbered cards from Ace (1) to ten, as well as “suit cards”, or figures: jack (page), knight (horseman), queen (queen) and king. The figures are also called "courtyard".
When fortune telling with tarot cards, both upright and inverted positions of the cards are taken into account.
There are several assumptions and hypotheses that explain the appearance of tarot. The author of the most beautiful hypothesis about the appearance of tarot cards is P. Christian. In his "History of Magic" he explains the appearance of the tarot as follows. "According to legend, in Ancient Egypt there was a temple in which mysteries of occult initiation were held. The initiate found himself in a long gallery supported by caryatids in the form of twenty-four sphinxes - twelve on each side. On the wall, in the spaces between the sphinxes, there were frescoes depicting mystical figures and symbols. These twenty-two paintings were arranged in pairs, opposite each other. Walking past the twenty-two paintings of the gallery, the initiate received instruction from the priest. Each Arcana, which, thanks to the painting, became visible and tangible, represents a formula for the law of human activity in relation to the spiritual. and material forces, the combination of which produces all the phenomena of life."
According to another hypothesis about the appearance of the tarot, the ancient Jewish Kabbalistic roots can be traced in the tarot much more clearly, and skeptically oriented tarot adherents propose to consider the starting point in the history of the tarot to be 300 AD - the approximate date of the creation of "Sepher Yetzirah", a fundamental work on Kabbalah, which details the astrological symbol change the Hebrew alphabet, which formed the basis of the tarot.
Legends about the creators of the tarot mention: ancient Egyptian priests, eastern sages, and abbot. There is a certain commonality between these characters - they all possess some knowledge that is inaccessible to others. In medieval Europe, such knowledge was possessed mainly by monks, therefore, most likely, the authorship of the tarot belongs to the clergy who made up the clan, within which the meaning of the Tarot symbols was known.
The monastic order most passionate about religious and philosophical issues is the Order of the Templars. After the Grand Master of the Templar Order, Jacques de Molay, cursed the royal dynasty that had ruined the order at the stake, his curse began to be fulfilled with terrifying accuracy. Maybe it was this ominous fact that prompted the use of tarot for fortune telling?
Let's take a closer look at the tarot cards themselves. Is there even a hint of the Templar heresy in the tarot pictures? It turns out there is.
- Despite the fact that tarot cards are a product of the Christian era, there is no image of Christ in the symbolism of the tarot, and the Templars were declared heretics precisely because they did not recognize His divinity.
- In tarot cards there is another image mentioned in the Templar manuscripts - the image of the Hanged Man (XII Major Arcana of the Tarot): “The Cross of Christ should not serve as an object of worship, since no one will worship the gallows on which his father, relative or friend was hanged.”
- The Templars were accused of worshiping the idol of Baphomet (Satan), and there is such an image in tarot cards - the XV Major Arcana of the Tarot.
So, we can suggest that tarot cards are nothing more than pages of the secret doctrine of the Templar Order. But this hypothesis of the appearance of tarot is as dubious as the others.
In light of all of the above, should a normal person resort to the help of tarot? Definitely worth it! After all, tarot cards, if we ignore their past, are an excellent tool for self-knowledge. Fortune telling with the tarot (and not only with the tarot) is nothing more than reflection with an element of self-programming, which can be quite positive if you approach this process without fear and bias. With the help of tarot, you can think through in advance, “rehearse” any situation, and reduce the percentage of failures in life.
2 Tarot card_Papessa
2 ARCANA - POPESS
In front of the massive stone pylon- at the entrance to the temple, a woman sits on a smooth cubic stone.
Her nude body involuntarily amazes with its waxy, amber, translucent color: 
its lines are very sharp and prominent.
Legs tightly clenched, and her frozen pose with a completely vertical back seems somewhat unnatural.
On foot wearing gold sandals, around the neck is patterned gold lace, slightly covering the upper back and chest.
In her right hand, pressed to her heart, she holds papyrus scroll, lying partly in folds on the knees and falling to the soles of the feet.
In her left hand she holds Lotus flower; its brush is tightly compressed and tightly grips the stem.
Drawn over the head smoky color slightly transparent bedspread, obscuring the knees and part of the papyrus, almost completely hiding them from view.
On the Woman's head is wearing something like metal helmet: it has two horns supporting the ball.
Directly behind her, two mighty columns supporting the portal stand out clearly against the background of the pylon.
Second Arcana (meaning in the hidden system)
Second Arcana, science of Logical Thinking.
SCIENCE LOGICAL THINKING.
Logical thinking is the ability to correctly apply external knowledge. Knowledge of well-known proven methods of material and spiritual knowledge is acquired from outside.
Which contribute to the correct disclosure of internal genetic knowledge and the development of intuitive thinking.
The main goal of the Science of Logical Thinking- train a person to use various techniques without changing them from within.
A technique is a sign; changing a technique means creating a new sign, which will lead to a different result.
Often, people, wanting to get a previously known result, make an unacceptable mistake, distorting the technique, removing or adding some parts to it.
Subsequently, having received an undesirable result, they refuse its further use, declaring the technique incorrect.
By distorting any of the methods, a person risks creating an uncontrollable egregor.
The Science of Logical Thinking makes it possible to curb an uncontrollable egregor by making it a catchable egregor.
LOGIC IS THE MOTHER of order knowledge. The hidden meaning of the image.
The image of the second lasso symbolizes the first main support of the Science of Thought.
Without Logical Thinking, it is not possible to perfectly master the science of intuitive thinking. Any fragments of the second lasso symbolize warnings that must be taken into account when studying and applying the science of Logical Thinking.

Advice from the Two of Swords card in fortune telling and readings
Do everything in your power to demonstrate your commitment to a peaceful solution to the problem and refrain from any involvement in the conflict.
Priestess, sometimes called the High Priestess. In the Egyptian Tarot, the arcana is called the Gate of the Sanctuary. The planet Moon corresponds to the lasso.
The priestess sits on a throne between two columns, one of the columns is black, the other is white; On the columns, in some versions of the Tarot cards, the Hebrew letters “Yod” and “Beit” are also placed, denoting Jachin and Boaz, respectively the planets Sun and Moon.
According to legend, it was with these letters that King Solomon once ordered to decorate two columns in his famous legendary temple, which he built in Jerusalem. Hence the second name of the arcana: “Gate of the Sanctuary.” These letters are a symbol of the unity of opposites - man and woman, day and night, life and death, alpha and omega, yang and yin.
Until the middle of the 16th century, when the figure on this lasso was adorned with the papal tiara, the card was considered the personification of one of the most important four human virtues - Prudence. The Priestess holds a scroll in her hand; this is the Book of Knowledge. Once in the Middle Ages, fortune tellers associated this card with “gnosis” - that is, knowledge of the truth. It symbolizes the spiritual principle, but its hidden secret part, the subconscious. The card also depicts a crescent moon, on the curtain located behind the throne of the Priestess - cut pomegranate fruits are visible, which has long been known as a symbol of the sensual feminine. Water splashes near the throne. Both the Moon and water are the opposite of the sun and fire, symbols of the masculine principle, personified by the lasso. The priestess is, as it were, the first “not-I” that she will meet on her way. When this lasso falls out in the process, it also means that in order to understand another person, you must first find in yourself something that can unite with him. That is why the Priestess card signifies balance and harmony of opposite principles.
The meaning of the card is this: you should not look for explanations or any justifications for your decisions. Just obey your feeling, your inner voice: they definitely won’t deceive you. You also have powerful inner strength and could very well help the sick if you wanted to. You should not give too much of this great power to insignificant, small everyday worries: you need to appreciate every minute that you can devote to yourself, just to listen to your inner voice. Be worthy of yourself. But don’t put yourself on a pedestal in your own eyes! You need clarity of thought and feeling, but do not show excessive coldness towards other people. In practical fortune telling, this is the highest manifestation of the Moon, that is, it is intuition, working with subtle plans. In everyday life - harmony of external and internal, physical and spiritual, the feminine principle in all its fullness - as advice on what you need to strive for and what is missing now in your life and attitude. In some cases, the card lets you know about a possible pregnancy and the birth of a child. Sometimes it’s just a reference to some woman in your life (wife, mother, daughter).
Inverted - indicates a lack of intuition or, quite possibly, a recommendation to use healthy logic rather than intuition. For women - perhaps it symbolizes female illnesses or some difficulties during childbirth, and for men - problems in relationships with the female sex.
