This phrase comes for the RTS PC Game, Starcraft. It is a phrase that is used by the Protoss race that is usually used at the beginning and/or the end of a meeting pertaining to serious Protoss issues by members that have a high status in Protoss society (e.g., members of the Protoss Conclave), just the like the words "Hello" and "Goodbye" have in native human language.
In the original Starcraft, meetings would often begin with the phrase En Taro Adun, although the use of this phrase was not limited to meetings. Adun was a legendary figure in Protoss history, who rid the Protoss homeworld of Aiur of the Dark Templar. Later, in the expansion set, Brood War, the phrase En Taro Tassadar would also be employed, after Tassadar sacrificed himself to destroy the Zerg Overmind.
Most likely, the phrase En Taro roughly means "Hail" or "Glory to," much like the Nazis during WWII would greet each other with "Hail Hitler." The phrase En Taro is always followed by the name of a glorious Protoss hero that accomplished something extraordinary. The use of the phrase itself invokes pride, courage and hope.

"...We will meet you on the other side of the Warp Gate. En Taro Tassadar."
"En Taro Adun, Executor. There is no time to waste. We must join our bretheren in battle!"

Get the Taro mug.When you reach the end of your rope and begin using a tarot deck to answer serious questions that you should be consulting friends, family, or preferably a therapist about. Subsequently, you pick a card from a tarot deck and proceed to make life-altering decisions that you will probably regret later. Alternatively, when you take the "advice" from tarot cards instead of listening to (ironically the same) advice that your friend has been telling you for weeks.
Beth: "Last night I went into a tarot fever and impulsively decided to drop out of college because the cards said I needed to change something in my life in order to be happy."
Ashley: "Damn, you have to stop making decisions while you're in a tarot fever."
