Twelve Steps of Tarot-holics
from David Bogie
This piece originally appeared in "Tarot
News" July '96.

1. We admitted we were powerless over tarot
-- not only is the mechanism completely out
of our
hands, but you know, we really only ever
needed one pack and its little book.... well,
we also needed a nice little silk pouch to
keep them in.... oh, and maybe a little wooden
box, if that's not asking too much.... hmm,
I haven't seen that deck before -- er, yes,
we admitted we were powerless over tarot
and that our lives and storage options had
become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power greater than
ourselves somehow guides our cards to their
positions in our spreads.
3. Made a decision to turn our cards and
their interpretations over to the care of
God, as we understood Him, Her, Them or It.
4. Made a searching and fearless inventory
of our entire tarot collection.
5. Admitted to God, and to another human
being, the exact nature of what we thought
we were missing and exactly how low we were
capable of going in order to acquire it.
6. We were entirely ready to have God remove
all of these gaps in our collection.
7. Humbly asked Him (Her, Them, It) to understand
that we really didn't expect Him to do
all the footwork for us.
8. Made a list of all persons we had received
tarot items from and became willing to give
thanks to them all.
9. Gave direct thanks to such people wherever
possible except when to do so would make
us aware
of additional decks and books we did not
know existed but now lusted after.
10. Continued to take inventory of our collection,
determined not to feel lousy because we can't
have it all nor can we know it all, and,
as a result of being at peace with this reality,
when we were wrong about something related
to tarot promptly admitted it.
11. Sought through prayer and meditation
and the spreading of our cards to improve
our conscious
contact with God, as we understand Him-Her-Them-It,
seeking only knowledge of the whereabouts
of cool tarot stuff and the financial resources
to acquire it.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as a
result of these steps, we tried to carry
this message to similarly afflicted persons
so they might not feel so guilty about their
tarot addictions, and to think about these
principles while thumbing through our tarot
books, shuffling our tarot cards, and studying
the latest US Games catalog. |
