About me

I am Gamze and the founder of www.inbalstarot.com, your online destination for tarot.

Even as a small child, I was in constant contact with invisible energies. I define this as the natural flow of life that connects all objects on earth. Nature has given me an open “antenna”, which I express through tarot cards. My main drive is to share this gift with the whole world and help people in desperate situations. My goal is to inspire you and encourage you to live the best version of your life!

 

 

 

Don't mystify me. I am a completely normal person made of flesh and blood with an ordinary everyday life and the same joys and worries as you.
Turn on your head. Nobody knows you as well as you do. Tarot remains Tarot, don't base your life on it.
Stay away from black magic, love spells, etc. Such practices involve foreign energies that are beyond your control and can cause irreversible damage to your mind. Take responsibility for your mental hygiene. Sagittarius your privacy and do not allow it to mix with other energies.
The "gift" cannot be found or learned. It is given to you by the universe (a gift) once your body, soul and brain are ready. Respect the warning you receive when you cross the line and leave this matter alone.
Stay away from service providers who oblige you to secrecy or who market themselves as insider tips or cure-alls.

Control was never an issue. But Tarot helps me translate/prove/explain my premonitions.

Overview of the tarot decks that I have dealt with as a card reader

As a card reader, I have dealt with various tarot decks over the years and would like to give a small excerpt here. The range of tarot cards is so extensive that there is a deck to suit everyone. Anyone who sets out to search is guaranteed to find the right Tarot deck - or found by them.

Crowley Tarot

The Crowley Tarot, also known as the Thoth Tarot, was created through collaboration between the famous English occultist Aleister Crowley and the artist Lady Frieda Harris, who painted the cards according to his instructions. Frieda Harris was also an Egyptologist and included around 1,200 symbols in the 78 cards. It impresses with the mystical symbolism of the cards and intense, captivating charisma. It also contains kabbalistic and astrological attributions, which are described in Crowley's 'The Book of Thoth'. First published in 1969, 22 years after Crowley's death, the deck is still very popular today.

Rider Waite Tarot

The Rider Waite Tarot is one of the most popular tarot decks. It first appeared in 1910 and was developed by the mystic Arthur Edward Waite in collaboration with the artist Pamela Colman Smith. It was published by the Rider Company, where its name Rider Waite Tarot comes from. It is characterized by its simplicity of motifs and its historical depiction. It was influenced by older and other contemporary decks, but it clearly differs from them in its departure from Christian motifs. In the Waite Tarot, the 'Popess' became the 'High Priestess' for the first time, and the 'Pope' became the 'Hierophant'.

Oswald Wirth Tarot

The Oswald Wirth Tarot is a deck that was developed based on the Major Arcana cards that the Swiss occultist, Freemason and Kabbalist Oswald Wirth published in 1889. Wirth's original deck, which contained only 22 cards, was based on the Marseille Tarot but contained additional occult symbols. Wirth designed one of the first tarot decks with metaphysical symbolism, for which he is still known today. He designed the cards with the aim of combining the purity of the Marseille Tarot with Masonic symbols. Today there are new editions of the Wirth Tarot, which supplement the original 22 cards with new ones.

Marseille Tarot

The Marseille Tarot, also known as Tarot de Marseille, can be traced back to 15th century Italy. The deck, which consists of 56 cards, became very popular around 1850. French artists and card makers from Marseilles and the surrounding area created new decks inspired by the old Italian cards - hence the name Marseille Tarot. It was probably originally designed for entertainment, inspired by Italian playing cards. But as early as the 17th century it was discovered by the spiritual community and increasingly used for divinatory purposes.

Walker Tarot

The Walker Tarot was first published in 1986 by Barbara Walker. It has strong references to mythology, paganism, matriarchal beliefs and divine feminine.
  • The deck combines old elements with new ones - the Major Arcana is more traditionally designed, while the Minor Arcana draws heavily on mythological and feminine symbolism.
  • It reflects a unique feminist perspective on the tarot. The cards depict gods and goddesses as well as symbols from various mythologies and religions from all over the world.
  • The deck is dominated by the colors red, black and white, as, according to Walker, these are the colors of the holy female trinity and reflect her phases as Virgo , mother and crone.

Druid Craft Tarot

The Druid Craft Tarot has strong references to Paganism, Wicca and Druidry. The maps were painted by Will Worthington using tempera, a painting technique that was particularly popular during the Renaissance. The accompanying book was written by Philip and Stephanie Carr-Gomm. The book takes up Druids' first contacts with the Tarot and establishes connections between the tradition of the Tarot and that of paganism, Wicca and Druidry. It also refers to Pythagorean numerology, which was taught by Druids. The Minor Arcana is based on the symbolism of the four elements, while the Major Arcana is based on the symbolism of the duality of masculine and feminine.

Robin Wood Tarot

The Robin Wood Tarot was first published in 1991 and is one of the most popular decks today. Robin Wood worked on her deck for ten years before completing it. It is heavily influenced by the nature and symbolism of paganism and Celtic mythology. It is particularly popular for its vivid, detailed illustrations - the cards are so intricately drawn that they appear almost alive, drawing the viewer into their world. The accompanying book provides extensive information on interpreting the cards.

Petersen Tarot

The Petersen Tarot was developed by the Berlin artist Margarete Petersen. She worked on the deck for 22 years. The cards in this deck are characterized by their very abstract and surrealistic style, which often differs greatly from the classic symbolism of the Tarot. The interpretation of the cards in this tarot is often intuitive and emotionally guided. The Petersen Tarot is heavily influenced by myths and fairy tales and awakens dreamlike, fairytale-like feelings in the viewer. The deck connects the viewer with his subconscious and allows him to immerse himself in an abstract world.

Sacred Circle Tarot

The Sacred Circle Tarot was developed by Anna Franklin and illustrated by Paul Mason. It is based on the symbolism of Celtic tradition and paganism. It takes you on a journey through the myths and symbols of the ancient Celts. The cards depict sacred places, plants and animals of the Celts. The cards were designed by combining hand drawings, photographs and computer graphics, giving them their own distinctive style. The Sacred Circle Tarot celebrates nature and life and the circle of life, death and rebirth.

Osho Zen Tarot

The Osho Zen Tarot was illustrated by Ma Deva Padma and is based on the teachings of the Zen Master Osho. Osho lived from 1931 to 1990 and was revered as a guru, mystic and spiritual teacher during his lifetime and today. It contains 79 cards - the traditional 78 cards plus an additional 79th master card. Each card contains not only a wonderfully beautiful picture, but also a quote from Osho and an explanation from the author. Undoubtedly, the Osho Zen Tarot is not a classic deck - it is based on the philosophy of Zen and aims to teach the viewer to live in the now.
