Tarot Card Readings Offer More Than You Think
Tarot card readings are all the rage these days. Some people use the tarot cards for spiritual healing and therapy, while others use the cards for entertainment and fundraising. Either way, the public is showing an open mind and a great deal of curiosity regarding this ancient practice. In the UK, Brits spent £40 million to pay tarot card readers from 2006-2007, for example. Americans spent $300 million on psychic hotlines last year. In India, the enrollment of women in the Indian Council of Astrological Sciences has gone up 40%.
So, what's the fascination behind live tarot cards? Are people losing faith, looking for answers, or just plain curious? "People come by because they are looking for some kind of direction," said Dawna SuMaria, one of the more experienced tarot card readers at the Hawaiian Islands' 12th annual Psychic Faire in Lihu'e. Miss SuMaria charges $25 for 15 minutes and she has been reading for nearly 50 years. Another who does tarot card readings, Erik Taylor, said that self-actualization is a big part of his readings as well. "It's about helping people get through their everyday things and be the best possible person they can be," Taylor said. Like a mirror, he reflects back to them so they "see the scene as it really is." The Psychic Faire is just one of many spiritual events happening this year.
World renowned psychologist Carl Jung explained tarot card readings as "an alternative psychotherapy." He argued that each of the tarot cards represents an archetype or situation universal to all humans. By recognizing that archetype, an inner reaction is triggered in the seeker, which allows them to voice their concerns, examine their past, recognize current obstacles and prepare for the future. Jung explains that the Death Card, for example, may be viewed as an end of a vice, an internal struggle or sadness, encouraging us to move on. In March 1933, Jung spoke at a seminar, explaining: "The symbol of the sun, or the symbol of the man hung up by the feet, or the tower struck by lightning, or the wheel of fortune, and so on; those are sort of archetypal ideas, of a differentiated nature, which mingle with the ordinary constituents of the flow of the unconscious, and therefore it is applicable for an intuitive method that has the purpose of understanding the flow of life, possibly even predicting future events, at all events lending itself to the reading of the conditions of the present moment."
The rising popularity of tarot card readings tells us a few things about our collective consciousness. One is that people are more open-minded and actively seeking answers. Generally, we do not believe that help can only be found in traditional means. (This idea is also demonstrated by the rise in Traditional Chinese Medicine clinics and schools within the United States that use massage and acupuncture to treat long-term diseases.) Another thing we learn from the popularity of the tarot cards is that the power of suggestion and the power of one's own mind is a powerful thing; one that more people express an interest in studying. What better way than to take time out for reflection, introspection and meditation? You can learn how to read tarot cards as a way of sorting through the chaotic matrix that is your life.
Did you know that tarot cards can give you a glimpse into how you work,play and function with others? It can guide you in making decisions that will have a huge impact on your life if you know what the cards mean. You do not need a psychic on a phone or in a booth to tell you that though. You can find your own future by learning to read the cards yourself. With a little help and the right guidance you can read the cards and know what your future holds in store for you.

Nikon announces D4 DSLR camera: full-frame 16.2 MP sensor, 204,000 extended ISO, XQD support, $6,000 price tag (Engadget)
More than two years after the D3S began shipping and roughly a half-_decade_
after we first got a peek at the D3, Nikon has finally announced the full-
frame DSLR's long-awaited successor. As expected, the Nikon D4 boosts both
megapixel rating (to 16.2) and extended ISO (204,800 at Hi-4), and includes a
brand new full-frame FX-format sensor. Video capture also jumped from 720/24p
to 1080/30p, but so did the camera's somewhat-out-of-reach price tag -- you'll
be dropping $5,999.95 when the D4 hits stores in late February. You're clearly
not spending all that hard-earned photo dough for nothing, though. There's
also a 91k-pixel RGB 3D Color Matrix Meter III, compared to a 1,005-pixel
meter in the D3S, enabling the camera to evaluate the color and brightness of
a scene with much greater precision, yielding much more accurate results. And
since the D4 reportedly offers phenomenal low-light performance, you'll
probably be using it quite often in the dark -- letting you get good use out
of the new back-lit controls.
Photographers can preview images using the 921k-dot 3.2-inch LCD, which offers
a 170-degree viewing angle and ambient light sensor. HD video can be previewed
on the display as ...
