It all boils down to having the evolutionary structure (delineated by Timothy Leary in his "The Game of Life") in the back of ones head - and of course the philosophy of Yoga (that I endeavour to teach) is a good fulcrum for it all, allowing for the reflective faculties of the mind to plumb the depths of the intuitively intuitive impulses that are accentuated by the Tarot spread. Wah, well. I'm glad you appreciate my ideas.
Alby
