Astrology and Tarot
Tarot is important when studying people, and knowing the Tarot cards that correspond to the Zodiac signs will help you make good Tarot readings.
Besides, each star sign in Astrology corresponds to a Tarot card. Astrology is important during the interpretation of Tarot cards and spreads.
These spreads are represented by the Golden Dawn Helmetic Order, which was traced to Great Britain and has been in existence from the 19th century up to the 20th century.
This spiritual current is where the four tarot decks emerged: The Golden Dawn Tarot, The Thoth Tarot, Waite-Smith Taro and BOTA Tarot.
The rise of these tarot decks are attributed to men such as, i.e., Mr. Aleister Crowley, Dr. Arthur Edward Waite and others who are responsible for their inception.
The Connection Between Tarots and Astrology
Tarots and astrology are similar in many ways and the two form a perfect pair. Tarots have some astrological components, and they date back to ancient times.
But the current tarots in our possession were influenced during the Renaissance period while the astrology system has been designed in place since the pre-Christianity period.
The basic structure of astrology also remains the same, and the new planets also were added to astrology after their discovery.
The connection between tarots and astrology is widely seen in the astrological signs.
Each tarot card is associated with a certain astrological sign. These tarot cards are found in the Major arcana and are very powerful since they determine the type of a person.
