You’ll find that its “messages” resonate with you on a deep philosophical, psychological, and spiritual level. Just press a random card from the deck below and be amazed…
The Creation of VitaTua
My wife is a very talented and experienced psychic who, over the years, has taught me some of the hidden knowledge within the Tarot, particularly focusing on the 22 most significant cards in the Major Arcana. The Major Arcana, a set of 22 cards in the Tarot deck, represents key life events, spiritual lessons, and archetypal energies that influence our lives. Each card, from ‘The Fool’ to ‘The World,’ carries profound symbolism and insights into the human experience. A few years ago, I began drawing each of these Major Arcana cards to deepen my understanding of their components, as well as the symbols and wisdom embedded within these ancient cards. This work was done under the guidance of my wife and through the study of ancient literature.
Over the years, I have created ink drawings that explore significant aspects of life and philosophy. To deepen my understanding of a concept, I often draw it out, breaking each element into its key components. This method enhances my awareness of details, symbols, and connections. This “research project” culminated in the creation of VitaTua, a 50-card system derived from the Latin words Vita (life) and Tua (yours), meaning “Your Life.”
The system is designed to:
- Combine three cards to describe and clarify any person’s major drive in life, whether it’s your own or someone you know.
- Help you or others prioritize different aspects of life and identify potential areas for improvement.
- Create a new conscious path for a specific aspect of life as suggested by the cards.
- Provide a mental challenge or reading directly from the cards, similar to the use of traditional Tarot cards.
The Tarot, as commonly understood, is a deck of cards originating in the mid-15th century in Europe, used today for divination and spiritual guidance. The Major Arcana, a set of 22 cards within the Tarot deck, represents significant life events, spiritual lessons, and archetypal energies that influence our lives.
Personally, I am convinced that the Tarot’s origins trace back much further, potentially to ancient Egypt. The symbols and archetypes resonate with the esoteric wisdom often attributed to Egyptian culture, where the concepts of life, death, and the mysteries of the universe were deeply embedded in spiritual practices. I speculate that the Tarot may have served as a tool for Egyptian priests or mystics to communicate profound truths, a theory that aligns with the mystical symbolism found in both the Tarot and Egyptian lore.
VitaTua consists of three types of cards:
Intention Cards: Describe how a person’s intention relates to a specific aspect of life.
Aspect Cards: Delineate the most important aspects of any person’s life.
Focus Cards: Illuminate how a specific intention manifests in a person’s life.
