There’s a lot of history to the practice of tarot, which you can read about in the above-linked pieces. In addition to the benefits of how tarot can help with mindfulness, journaling, and grounding oneself, tarot is simply a lot of fun.

As a teen, I spent a lot of time listening to music and interacting with songs in the forms of writing down favorite lines and illustrating lyrics. Why it never occurred to me to do this with books—which have, overall, been a larger part of my life than has music—is beyond me.
