Astrology is one of the oldest and most widely recognized divinatory systems.
Most people are familiar with their sun sign, and horoscopes are featured in thousands of newspapers and magazines globally.
But there is more to astrology, just as there is more to the Tarot once you begin to delve deeper.
Assigning astrological meanings to tarot cards offers a more nuanced understanding of both disciplines.
With astrological attributions, it's even possible to determine the timing of specific events, adding another layer of depth to your readings.
The most common system used today is that of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.
However, this system has recently been updated to include the discovery of three new planets - Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
The original Golden Dawn members were only aware of the seven classical planets: the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
Now the connection of the ten planets and twelve zodiac signs with the 22 cards of the Major Arcana works out perfectly.
Astrological attributes are also assigned to the Minor Arcana cards.
Combining Tarot with astrology brings a fresh perspective and deeper insights into the astrological attributions within the Tarot, enriching the readings and interpretations.
