i had my cards done, and low and behold the cards fitted the way I was feeling about something important in my life. Anyway, what controls which tarot cards i pick. Is it my spirit, an outside spirit or what?
oh, and I'm asking for beliefs, so please no, 'its all bollocks' there is no spirit it's random' answers please

The cards are very vague.
You may apply any card to a part of your life and it will somehow fit in. Pick a card, one at a time and you can find that there are similarities in your life to almost every one.

I'm convinced the reader has at least something to do with it. I've had my cards read by different people at different levels of accomplishment. One was just uncanny - answered a specfic question in unambiguous terms, and no sideline BS. Talked about things he had absolutely no way of knowing or picking up from my body language.
On the other hand, I've had my cards read by others in a way that was so vague it could be interpreted to mean anything to anybody. I've noticed this is usually the fluff-bunny types who are scared shitless of thier beliefs.
If you want a good reading, find a Santero or a kickass black magician and pay for it.

You won't find my view commonly held, if anyone actually has it at all.
They are symbols of the archtypes that influence all reality. All things have archtypes, ultimate versions of them, which they are connected to, if not dozens of such (the Perfect male, the Perfect Carpenter, the Perfect child). These archtypes adjust VERY slowly as reality changes, but also influence all reality. The cards are older than people realize and represent these archtypes (the cards are incomplete in that not all archtypes are represented, but that is because they represent a particular spiritual path that has been lost to mankind due to the secrecy surrounding them).
The archtypes, the cards called up are those that most influence the situation, and it depends on what connection you have with those archtypes, how firm that connection is.
Fortune telling is a rather superstitious way to use them, vs. spiritual, (and neglects the potential of the cards as tools), but then again, running around with holy water to fight vampires is fairly common as well.

Tarot cards are not from God... as God condemns divination. So what spirits remain? They are demons... and they will seduce you to accepting them... and yes they will appeal to you and draw you in deeper and deeper. Your craving for knowledge and power shall increase... but then... one day you will be trapped. You will realize that the spirts that you thought you could manipulate or get answers from are in fact manipulating and controlling you!
There is a good book on the subject. A former witch and psychic healer has her story to tell about.
"The Beautiful Side of Evil" by Johanna Michaelson
I was involved in tarot cards... and it took me on a long journey into many other things. Tarot cards are not a toy,,, they have power and yes they can be truthful to a point. But ultimately, their power is limited because God has the greater power and if you would just go to the source... you would find someone who really loves you and will help you in ways you can not fathom or begin to understand. I know... I have seen this personally. So why practice something weaker and counterfeit? Go to the source... and let God transform your life to something that will make you a diamond instead of a lump of coal.

I think your energy or soul chooses the cards. They can be very insightful, but if it is a reading for the future, remember that the future is not written in stone and what may be shown to you is just one possible outcome out of millions. In the end, the choice is in your hands.

Well, some people believe its a manifestation of your own internal power. Some believe angels control the cards, or faeries, God, the Goddess, the trees, and on and on.

It is simple... she reads you and the card are in her hands if you shuffle them it will be even more accurate... due to the many interpretations she tells you what she feels from your aura.
FYI
VERY VERY bad! your destiny of your life lies in you OWN hand, do not give it another!!!!
if you have your fortune told the more she speaks accurately of your past the more her fortune will live YOUR life!!!!
it is like this your past can be read and future seen but it will control you and the correct path will elude you...
your past catches your mind (her speaking about it you, your mind and soul become amazed)
She then tells you your future based on your past and you are helpless to avoid it because it is the one shown to you... chose not to hear your future and you are free to chose the correct path the one that can lead you to your soul mate and even lead you to life and the most amazing love there is!
