Cartomancy
Cartomancy is a form of divination done by reading the signs and symbols on a set of cards. Forms of cartomancy appeared soon after playing cards were first introduced into Europe in the 14th century and can be linked to being present in the Middle East. Practitioners of cartomancy are generally known as cartomancers, card readers, or simply readers.Cartomancy is done using various layouts or spreads. By using various spreads, one can give a detailed reading. Each of the cards has a meaning, and when you lay them out in a certain way the interpretations deepen. The truth is there is a myriad of spreads and thousands of possible readings. These nuances require a good interpreter of the basic meanings of each card, as well as an understanding of what they mean together in certain locations. Many people compare cartomancy to tarot but there is a difference. While they can be read similarly, tarot decks and regular card decks are pretty different. The tarot deck has 78 cards (as opposed to a standard deck's 52) and contains different suits from your hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades.
Person 1: What the hell is she doing with those playing cards? Is it some new game?
Person 2: Nah man, it's cartomancy.
