In the Torah and in the Kabbalistic tradition it is forbidden to attempt to contact the dead. The “other side” is way beyond our ability to comprehend and we may be deceived by forces with a dark agenda.
The central issue is that in each life in physicality we are destined to live pre-ordained events. Each event has a purpose, whether auspicious or inauspicious. Whether wonderful or catastrophic. There is a purpose in every event, even in suffering.
Prior to accepting each life in physicality, the pre-ordained events are revealed to us in full. We have the option to accept or reject the physical experience on offer. At the moment of entry into physicality the knowledge is hidden from our consciousness. The purpose of the life would lose all meaning if we knew what to expect.
We cannot choose or control events. We can choose our reaction to each event. In Solomonic Healing we have learned how to deal with obstacles, even to remove obstacles that are emotionally bases and that block our way forward.
We are given to understand by our sages that the purpose of every exile of Jews over the last 3000 years was to advance our understanding of life in Malkut. We cannot ascend prior to descending.
“We may live an entire lifetime for a single meeting” Rabbi Nachman.
Tarot is not as a way to predict a fixed future. It is a mechanism to create awareness of our journey in physicality.
The potential “relationship” between Tarot and Kabbalah is fairly recent and dates back to the 19th century. There is no reference to Tarot in the Torah or in ancient Kabbalistic texts, like the Zohar.
The Tree of Life is a diagram representing the 10 Sephiroth, divine emanations or aspects of consciousness connected by 22 paths. These 22 paths are mapped to the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet and, by extension, the 22 cards of the Tarot Major Arcana.
The Tarot acts as a mirror reflecting the path from unawareness to awareness, often referred to as “The Fool’s Journey”. To some extent, it may reveal where we are in the journey. It the Judaic tradition it cannot and must not be used to “predict” the outcome.
