A Simple Method to Read Playing Cards ... By Enrique Enriquez

Dear friends,

The following is an update from my current project (tarology) that I have decided to share here. On previous updates I have shared an operation manual for the tarot and its basic components, the meaning of meaning, many ways to learn the tarot, and a practical layout for shamanism. This time I am sharing the simplest method to read regular playing cards I can think of. Anybody could find guidance or make a living after reading these 21 lines! While some could find it too simplistic, I hope some of you will find it as useful as I do.


how to turn a deck of cards into a thermometer
(learning social sculpture from a Hare)

red is warm
black is cold

1 is contracted
10 is expanded

from 1 to 2 or 3
things go slow

from 1 to 6 or 9
things go fast

pips are patterns
courts are people
pips are inner
courts are outer

all that falls between
"Once Upon a Time" and "Happily Ever After"
is about going

from warm to cold
from cold to warm

about contracting if you have expanded
about expanding if you are contracted

because you are a lump of clay
(and I mean it nicely)
