It is necessary to know the meaning of the twenty-two arcana by memory and also to meditate on their meaning.
We do this by relaxing, praying, reaching silence of mind, and concentrating / visualizing the tarot card we wish to study. Then we wait, and allow the insight of the Being to emerge spontaneously within our consciousness.
To perform the practice with the tarot cards:
1) Shuffle and pick one major arcanum.
2) Shuffle and pick two minor arcana.
3) Add the sum of the major arcanum to the sum of the two minor arcana.
4) If this final sum is over 22, add the two digits together to get your synthesis or card of prediction.
For example:
- Arcanum 12: The Apostolate
- Arcanum 24: the Weaver (2 + 4 = 6)
- Arcanum 50: Affinity (5 + 0 = 5)
12 + 6 + 5 = 23 = 2 + 3 = 5: The Hierarch.
