"The process of reading cards is one which is intended to allow the reader to glimpse future event-patterns for himself and for others. The ideas of karma and basic traits play little part in the study of the cards."
"The most useful set of cards, for the purpose under discussion, is that which is called The Tarot. This card arrangement, with its various suits and symbols, was given to Mankind in complete form many thousands of years ago by Entities from a Higher Level of being. At the time of this gift, a covenant was also made by which these Higher Entities and Those Who would succeed Them guaranteed to make the cards 'work' in the sense of prediction for the remainder of the physical cycle of The Earth."
"Thus, the reason for the success of Tarot-reading is the specific contribution of Entities located on a Higher Plane of being who are able to see the most likely course of future events at any given time, and Who are under an obligation to physically manipulate the patterns of the cards as they are turned up in such a way as to symbolize, for the card-reader, the information that is being sought."
"Occasionally, the information obtained through card-reading turns out to be false. Sometimes the error is due to a misjudgement on the part of the card-reader. In other instances, however, it arises because the probabilities of certain future events have shifted in the meantime due to exercise of human free-will and due to chance occurrences, so that the events previously seen as most likely have given place to others. The risk or error in card-reading cannot be avoided, because it is essential to allow all human beings a generous degree of free choice in their responses to events."
