Here are some snippets from a few of my favorite books
Book Details
World of Psychics: If you are buying a deck, though, be guided by your intuition. The cards work through images, and images are the language of your intuition and psychic mind. Its through the plethora of symbols, and in the case of the Thoth deck astrological references as well, that you will discover more about your own path and how to access the ancient wisdom the Tarot contains. The 78 cards can make you smile as time and time again the same things are suggested to you, as I have found out!
Complete Book of Tarot: The other part of the proposed definition states that divination attempts to discern occult information as though by supernatural means. Not infrequently, the knowledge gained during a tarot reading feels eerily as if it were a form of extra-ordinary knowing or as if it had a supernatural origin. Various dictionaries define divination as an inspired guess (where does the inspiration come from?), a presentiment, an intuitive perception, a prophecy, an instinctive foresight, or simply as the interpretation of signs and omens.
