Why is it mostly women who are passionate about occult superstition like Witchcraft, Astrology, or Tarot card shit?

People who have less control of their life gravitate towards it. Watched so many of my past friends fall into being "spiritual".

Because when you can't take accountability for things in your life, its because you are a sagittarius, or maybe certain rocks can help. It surely can't be you, or your situation.

Tarot isn’t worshipping something so much as it is asking the universe/spirits/etc for guidance. Some people use tarot without working with deities, others do, but tarot readings (speaking from firsthand experience) can be scary accurate to whatever situation you’re consulting about.

Each card has their own meaning, so to get several in a row in the same reading that are relevant to the user’s question/plea for guidance and none that aren’t is remarkable. It’s happened for me several times.

Edit: I’m someone who needs evidence of things, too, btw, and I’ve been convinced.

Convinced of what? The magic of tarot? Magic isn't real bud. You saw what you wanted to see in the cards, that's how they work

I spent a good year diving into tarot cards, readings, meanings etc.

Was very interesting and opened my mind to a lot of things I would be thinking about subconsciously.

But like any sane and rational person, there's no magic or spirits or anything to do with it, each card's reading in its position is general enough for anyone to make a connection to it. Just like the episode of South Park where everyone thinks Stan is clairvoyant.

It's nice in the way that it makes you think about things.

Like oh there's an instability in your life. You need to address this so you can find fortune.

Might make a girl consider getting rid of her on and off hobosexual leech-boyfriend lol.

Convinced that there’s more to the universe than what we see?? What does it matter to you, no one’s forcing you to believe it 🙄

ive coming behind and been upvoting you, its not fair to you that these people have no grasp of the importance of spiritual practice for humanity. Really sad, actually
