Is Divination a Sin
Hi, Can you please help me to understand if Divination (through Tarot cards) is a sin. I was raised in a family who read Tarot cards. I have spent the last 23 reading professionally. I was born very intuitive and what see in the Tarot comes to pass. Now, I am coming to a point in my life (I am 40) where I want a true relationship to G-d. So my questions are, 1. Is Divination a sin or do I have a gift from G-d ? If Divination is a sin, will G-d hear my prayers to help me out of it and to find a good career or does G-d not hear the prayers of a sinner? Can I be cursed because of this?
Thank you,
Tara

Shalom,
Divination is expressly one of the negative precepts So it’s clearly best to avoid it
The reason why is simply that the Torah holds that free will is paramount and by seeking to
see the future we are essentially limiting our infinite potential to the interpreter of our divination.
However you are not cursed and can always have a close relationship with the creator.
