Tarotists
With all the terrorism going on in the world, what we all need is a little Tarotism. We need more people who are aware of how similar and diverse the themes of ideological thinking can be and can follow the threads of variety ever back towards a common source. A Tarotist is familiar with every symbol and every myth. The most exotic of rituals "fit" into the framework of the Tarot. The macabre, the mob, and the mystic are all enscribed by a Tarotist network. The Tarot innoculates the Tarotist against Bias and the easy conclusions of his or her monoculture. She is prepared for the chemical and biological attacks of rage and hysteria. The Tarotist sees a different kind of Tower, a different sort of Emperor, a grander kind of Chariot heading East. She knows- You may be a Fool or a Heirophant but you won't be one for long. The Tarot predicts fickle inspiration and windfalls of fame and wealth. Sometimes it confirms what we always suspected. The Tarotist hangs upside-down and wonders Foolishly "how does the resolution impact the past?" He envies the easy confidence of the fanatic and the traditionalist. He wonders, "who created this Deck anyways?" Not expecting answers, but larger questions to grow with.
