I read tarot as well and would take the exact same stance... I tend to take a very spiritually empowering stance on divination... I believe that the information one seeks while consulting any oracle is all inside you or whomever you're reading for... the tool being used, be it playing cards, tarot, oracle decks, etc. are the key to help to unlock that information and get you to consider other options... that is my own personal reading stance... I find playing cards themselves just as specific as tarot, it's the matter of really working with them and learning their intricasies and nuances and then combining that with one's intuition... granted, I can see how their lack of image and visual symbolism might make them seems limiting... but I've found this not to be the case... basically, I believe no divinatory tool has limits unless it is limits you impose upon them... nothing special about tarot cards or playing cards... just pieces of paper with ink on em... it's what you make of them and how you choose to use em... hope that sorta clears up what I meant in my previous post... in managing a major metaphysical bookstore, I've come across many a reader... I've learned over the last couple years what makes the good from the bad... and it all comes down to how you choose to read... basically... I've had to clean up a lot of other readers' poor work... unfortunately, there are scam artists out there and this tends to give reputable and talented readers a bit of a challenge at times... hope that clears things up... thanks...
