Tarot card divination has been around for hundreds of years. And it is still relevant today.
Some people just dabble and play fortune-telling. And someone seriously tries to solve life's problems with the help of cards.
But it doesn't matter who or how one feels about fortune telling and magic. Right now, millions of teenagers are guessing at tarot cards. And they always will. For interest or for real help.
Magic and teenagers
At all times, teenagers are drawn to all things unknown.
Anything obscure and mysterious attracted and fascinated them. Children have always been interested in «tickling their nerves».
Remember, because you yourself probably played magical games as a child.
Children call the Queen of Spades and the Gnome of the Motherfucker. And fortune-telling has always been a necessary part of growing up for children. Especially girls.
I'd love to know which boy likes you. Or your wedding date.
Tarot cards are the kind of magic that all teenagers are so drawn to. Especially when children see how seriously many adults take them.
Through esotericism children discover a new world and learn not to lose faith in fairy tales. They try to get to that magical world where all their dreams can come true.
But teenage divination has its pitfalls.
Pros and cons of the Tarot hobby
On the one hand, Tarot fortune-telling helps:
- Analytical thinking
- Predicting the future
- Self-analysis
- Improving memory
- Developing imagination
- Unlocking intuition
But on the other hand it is:
- False hope for help from Higher Powers
- Escape from reality
- A source of anxiety for the future and the present
- The cause of fears and phobias
Therefore, there are a few rules to set for teens who have begun to take an interest in Tarot.
Get the right attitude for your child.
He should realize that Tarot is not a magical way to solve any problems in life. It is only a tool for self-analysis and searching for answers within oneself.
Explain that they're just cards. You don't have to be afraid if they show something bad. Don't blindly believe all the meanings of the cards.
Let the cards be an interesting and rewarding game, not an unquestioned guide to action.
It is important to talk to your child and discuss this activity. Let him or her tell you what he or she saw on the cards. You will interpret the predictions together.
It is important for a child to understand that any predictions are only variants of events. And only the person himself creates his own destiny.
Psychological development of an adolescent
It is worth remembering that otherworldly forces are clung to by those who lack confidence.
That's why it's so important to work specifically on raising a child's self-esteem.
A confident person will never take cards and fortune-telling seriously.
In addition, it is worth developing your child's critical and logical thinking. Logic games and tasks are good for this.
There are many games and activities for self-discovery and finding a way out of different theoretical situations. Success in these games will give your child confidence and help them learn to find the right solution in life together with you in a safe environment.
Don't forget about books, either. This is the best way to safely immerse yourself in another world where anything is possible.
The main thing is not to let your child's hobbies go to waste. You should always be aware of his activities and warn him against mistakes and problems.
