The Numerology of the Tarot
The Numerology of the Tarot is a huge branch of theoretical study. Everyone has their own way of interpreting the numbers, and yet there is a core of universality to all the teachings. Learning and considering the number that a Tarot card corresponds to is one of the most informational, helpful, and constructive tools we have available to us as readers. When my client pulls a 5, I have an immediate sense of what’s happening in their life, just by the presence of the 5.
The way the numbers weave together can create a symphony of wisdom and information, helping us to decode the reading, and empower ourselves and our clients along the way. We can look at repeating numbers, too. Did you or your client get three 4’s in a reading? Most certainly a time for rest and resetting. This is a simple way to begin to consider each of the numbers of the Tarot in a concise and helpful way, illuminating a coded language within the Arcana of the Tarot!
