Tarot/torah? unspecified Google-istic musings, link harvest, random

Fool: Querent; seeker (after 'truth', meaning, her [or his] *own*, personal, truth)

From http://www.wejees.net/whatistarot.html (bold mine):
How does Tarot work?

The cards are like a mirror, reflecting back to us our inner state. The images appeal to the archetypal images we carry in our subconscious, and reflect the archetypal tales known to every civilization. We merely insert ourselves into the tale, and pick up the story at the place we are at right now. We ask the Tarot a question, and like a psychic mirror, it reflects back a story that will have personal meaning to us. At the heart of most questions, especially those most deeply felt, is the question of meaning. To experience life with joy you must find a sense of personal meaning. When someone asks, "What's going on?" they usually want to know, "Why is this happening to me?". The cards imply there is an understandable order and reason for our experiences, that the events themselves are mirroring some deeper cause that is veiled from ordinary sight
