Why Tarotchi?

I believe that "Chi", 'Qi" or energy as we all understand it is the soul of the universe and it exists in various forms but it is omnipresent. We have heard of energy transforming from one form to another. We breathe in energy, eat energy in calories, and burn energy through exercise.
Did you know that each one of us have an energy body around us that is called our aura. This energy connects with the energy of the universe and draws from it.
Feng shui relates to the chi of our living and working spaces. The Chi in our environment also gets enhanced or depleted. Like the poles each one of us are drawn by some energy and repel other energy and to understand it, we call it positive and negative energy.
Pranic healing relates to the same chi also known as prana. We have energy centers in our body called chakras that are like channels that draw and expel energy, are related to various organs and endocrine glands. The energy levels at each chakra impact not only the physical functioning but also impact our personalities and the functioning of the mind.
Now what does Tarot have to do with all of this? Do you believe in signs or symbols? Do you have a gut feeling about something and it turns out, you are right?
Tarot is about such signs and symbols but a divination method that focuses on such signs and images through a intuitive process that tarot readers develop. Some do it by studying generic meanings that have been developed for centuries. Others find their own meanings through a intuitive process. I call this connecting with the universe, that force which is the all permeating chi.
Tarot cards have different images based on the deck but what gives those images meaning is the energy that gives life to the images. I believe in a supernatural force that directs us constantly but we are too busy in the physical world that we cannot always connect with that force. All that a tarot reader does is to connect to the chi of the universe to give answers to questions. I call the tarot a map with directions. At times, we travel without a map and may find our way or get lost. No matter what vehicle we use, we need fuel or energy to move.
Similarly, tarot needs energy or chi to give directions.

So here you are at Tarotchi@Bangalore. I thank the energy of the tarot for energizing my life with meanings and intuition to see the signs and reach out to people and their questions.
