SDI's remark about Aphrodite's beauty is on point, that certainly is dangerous. Aha.
So far I do not see the Tarot as religious. The Tarot is a tool to make my mind work better. It does so by connecting my current worries to random elements. The Tarot advances my understanding of religion like it does for any other subject. You could use the Tarot for nefarious purposes where the numinous would not cooperate.
