Wow, whenever I see this question I always think of my oldest son. Anytime he was given something that was mechanical, he'd take it apart to see why it worked and then, of course, it didn't work anymore. He's 52 now and he's still doing it, but at least he can put most things back together now.
Tarot works because---Tarot works. My motto is, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Why try to find out how it works? Is it so then we could manipulate it to say what we want? We can do that without knowing how it works. Do we want to know how it works so we can satisfy our curiosity? Some things are better left to the magic of how life and the Universe work together to give us answers with the cards. I love the magic and I've given up trying to peek behind the curtain.
