[Etc.] Tarot Cards - What Arcana are you?
« on: July 02, 2012, 08:08:47 PM »
OK, what on Earth is this thread?
This is a personality quiz thread in the vein of the Meyers-Briggs thread that was floating around for a while. Simply take the test, post your results here, then answer the poll so we can tally up who is what.

What are tarot cards, anyway?
Tarot cards are the precursors to modern playing cards, consisting of 78 cards: 4 sets of 14 "Minor Arcana", ranking from Ace to King, and 22 "Major Arcana." Tarot cards were originally used to play specific card games, but were also used by certain groups as a method of divination. The Major Arcana are the more famous of the two Arcanas, often used as symbols in media, particularly when relating to the mystical.

The Quiz is here.

===

I'll start off with my results:

You Scored as XIII: Death
Death is probably the most well known Tarot card - and also the most misunderstood. Most Tarot novices would consider Death to be a bad card, especially given its connection with the number thirteen. In fact this card rarely indicates literal death.Without "death" there can be no change, only eventual stagnation. The "death" of the child allows for the "birth" of the adult. This change is not always easy. The appearance of Death in a Tarot reading can indicate pain and short term loss, however it also represents hope for a new future.

XIII: Death             75%
I - Magician            63%
XIX: The Sun           63%
II - The High Priestess   56%
IV - The Emperor     50%
VI: The Lovers        44%
XVI: The Tower      44%
0 - The Fool           44%
XV: The Devil         38%
XI: Justice             31%
X - Wheel of Fortune   31%
III - The Empress    31%
VIII - Strength        25%

II - The High Priestess   
75%

The High Priestess is a card of intuition, instinct and hidden knowledge. She knows all your secrets, you can hide nothing from her. Yet you will never know the secrets she herself protects.If well aspected in a Tarot spread, this card can indicate the use of intuition to solve problems; trust to your instincts. If badly aspected, it can mean suppression and ignoring of such instincts - following your head at the expense of your heart.

Ah, finally. I've been waiting to see some self-application of Tarot cards for a while.

I don't always trust quizzes like this, but there seems to be some detail involved here. I'll give it a shot.

You Scored as XIX: The Sun
This is the happiest card in the deck. It is full of joy and optimism, everything is right with the world. We are as innocent children playing in the fields without care. The Sun brings success, well-being and happiness in all spheres - material, emotional, spiritual -wherever our desires lay.When this card appears in a Tarot spread it indicates success, joy and happiness. Obstacles will be overcome, goals achieved.When badly aspected, it can indicate a stagnation through over-indulgence, too much of a good thing.

Though I'm not sure why justice is below 50% because I'm a socialist that believes in equality and justice.

You Scored as 0 - The Fool

The Fool is the most complex and most contradictory of all the Tarot cards. "I am not a number, I am a free man". The Fool represents naivety and childlike innocence - yet the Fool is wise. He carries only what possessions he really needs He journeys through life, tasting everything it has to offer then letting it go and moving on. The Fool is a risk taker, often shown with one foot over a cliff showing us every new beginning has a risk. Whether the Fool represents opportunity or danger one thing is clear: this world needs more fools.

0 - The Fool                       75%
XVI: The Tower                   75%
XIII: Death                         69%
II - The High Priestess       63%
VIII - Strength                56%
IV - The Emperor                    50%
XV: The Devil                    50%
XI: Justice                            50%
III - The Empress            44%
XIX: The Sun                    31%
X - Wheel of Fortune       31%
I - Magician               25%
VI: The Lovers                  6%

Well, it's accurate at least. I am a fool.
