Some people believe in palm reading/tarot/astrology, but why? I understand there may be a link between the visualisation of symbols/signs on hands, cards etc and convincing belief but how else does it affect the person being assessed? Have there been any scientific testing (not biased!) of these fortune telling systems, and where is the source of these?

In European countries such as France, there are Tarot cards sold to play actual card games similar to Spades and Bridge. According to most historians, Tarot cards were originally intended for card games and not for divination. However in countries such as the US, Tarot cards are only sold for fortune telling purposes and most Americans only associate Tarot with divination. Do you believe this situation should change? Would you play actual card games with Tarot? Should Tarot publishers supply game rules with Tarot decks?
