Ok! Would you like a random reading orwould you like me to try and consult the cards onna specific issue?
I think the later is more effective.

At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing. You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations. You also pride yourself as an independent thinker; and do not accept others' statements without satisfactory proof. But you have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others. At times you are extroverted, affable, and sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary, and reserved. Some of your aspirations tend to be rather unrealistic.
The letter 'M' features prominently in your life, as does the color blue. You have special relationships with both fire and water, while air and earth are simply parts of your ordinary existence.

Wow, that's surprisingly very accurate! I know you dont really believe in this stuff Fnord but you are pretty good at it.
One of my friends who is also into numerology explained to me that the number 4 is also prominent in my life. My birth cards in tarot are The Emperor (Number 4) and Death (Number 13).

Even if there is no real mystical power behind it, I think the history of the cards as well as the different interpretations of the artwork itself is fascinating.
I find it fascinating how the decks based on the Rider Waite Smith Deck have images on each card based on occult symbolism from ancient times. The Tetramorph in The World and The Wheel of Fortune cards (Man, Lion, Ox, and Eagle). The Ouroboros on The Magician's belt. The Star of Ishtar over the nude goddess in The Star card. The Crown of The Triple Moon Goddess (Maiden, Mother, and Crone) sitting on the head of The High Priestess (Maybe a reference to Persephone, Demeter, and Hecate?). The Star of David on the lantern of The Hermit. Etc
Even if one does not really believe in this it's still fun to read into, at least in my opinion.

It is also possible to make a living at it (enough to pay rent, keep the utilities running, and buy groceries). I got out of the business when I realized how dependent people could get on my ability to construct a story from randomly-selected cards. Did you get that? It was not the cards themselves, but my ability to tell a convincing story that got them hooked. The key word in performing a reading of tarot cards is "performing" -- not "reading", not "tarot", and not "cards". "Performance".I might consider that when if the economy gets so bad that I lose my SSI and have no choice but to find ways to earn money or food to survive like people during The Great Depression did. Besides I have no job skills since I've been on SSI my entire life.
