Learn the Court Cards of Tarot - Personality Type Inventories, Psychology and the Four Elements 

Hi Hayley M, thanks for watching and for your comment! I am planning a new series of videos soon that are in alignment with the book I’ve been writing for the last six months on the nature of the soul. I’m very excited to be putting the finishing work on the first draft over the next couple weeks and I’ll be sharing a free preview chapter as I update the RU-vid channel. If you have specific questions about Tarot that you’d like me to do a video on, let me know and I’ll give it some thought as I’m composing a list of new topics to cover this fall! Thanks again for watching and for your feedback!

david hunter as you know there are many books on Tarot available out there. As a Jungian I tend to lean more towards the roots of symbols rather than divinatory ideas around Tarot. As such these books tend to be across a wide spectrum of sources. I read into the Chariot for example as story that dates to Hellenistic Greece and Plato’s chariot - an allegory about the journey of the soul. In exploration of personality types I’ve studied numerous schools of thought and models of personality, including reading the dense “Personality Types” by Jung. Joseph Campbell is a huge influence for me. His Hero with a thousand faces and the hero’s journey is so profound that it’s themes can be seen in the arc of the Major Arcana, the fool being the hero and the arcana being the story of the journey. You question gives me lots to think about I can see immediately a half-dozen content pieces I can build around it, stay tuned and I’ll share some thoughts for you in the coming week or two

@@ShannonBoschy Excellent. Thanks again. Looking forward to hear what you have to say.

Hi David, I’ve started “Tarot Tuesdays” on my channel thanks in part to yours and other’s questions about Tarot. tomorrow I’ll be putting up a piece on books of influence in my studies. Here is the first Tarot Tuesday Video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2VkaoNBQLPY.html

@@ShannonBoschy thank you. Just watched it. So interesting. Can't believe you have studied so many incredibly important subjects. Wow! Thanks again for being so generous in passing on some of your knowledge.

a function of time and curiosity. I often looked to people who were able to reference and quote from different disciplines and thought I could never learn that much, but engaging in areas of interest consistently over a long time helped me develop an large vocabulary of symbols

khalil omar none of my private videos continue on this thread. I’m a fan of Tarot and of Jung but, I haven’t explored this further in my choices of video. Are there specific questions you have? Perhaps I will incorporate them into upcoming vidoes

@@ShannonBoschy thanks for the reply! im just looking to make sense of Tarots but via some knowledge that I have already come into contact with, in this case Jung's. I find Tarots interesting but have not seriously looked into them, which I am starting to do so. I would have loved seeing more of your thoughts on the two subjects, as I feel a certain connection to your understanding (though ofc it could change later on, but let me focus on this moment lol). Do you have certain things you can point me towards? (either youtube, pdf, names, etc) I see you have a playlist, I will look into that as well.

khalil omar the best way to learn tarot and symbolic sets like it (like Astrology, Numerology, Runes, Cabala etc) is to keep them in your mind. Be fiercely curious while remembering to keep your own power. Too many people surrender their power to their objects of study. Tarot is not a set of answers; its a contemplative process that will lead you to find answers in yourself. This was Jung’s thing. He studied ancient alchemy and hermetic philosophy, astrology, mediumship and tarot any many of the schools of what we call the occult. When you can see the patterns in these, and you are able to remain objective in your understanding, you will see what Jung saw. That is far better than any interpretation that I could share with you; but send me an e-mail to shannon@chasingquicksilver.com and I will release to you whatever Tarot content I have,

​@@ShannonBoschy thank you for putting it like that; the embodiment of your understanding has crystallized to the form of wisdom (not that i know anything at all about that, as im a student (relatively old though) that is just beginning his journey in this path of self knowledge and understanding. thanks for your help. ill send the email (khalilr.2019) now

Looks like them. I wasn’t involved in the interior design so I don’t know.
