 Cartomancy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cartomancy is a form of fortune-telling or divination using a deck of cards.
Cartomancy, the art of divination using the standard playing deck, was the most popular form of providing "fortune telling" card readings in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Although a standard card deck is used for cartomancy, many other decks have also been designed that are intended specifically for use for divination, the best known of which are Tarot decks.

Of course, any Lenormand style cartomancy decks that include playing card insets on their faces can also be used for playing any number of games --- and some people consider decks that have been used in fortune telling to be especially lucky for games of chance.
The oldest of the unnumbered Austrian "Cartomancy" sets contain 32 cards, like the original Lenormand Euchre decks, but as time went on, more cards were added to cover more of life's conditions, so there are decks with 32, 36, and 52 cards.

 CARTOMANCY
Cartomancy is not an exact science and you will do better if you leave some space for your intuition and imagination to unfold during interpretation, instead of just reciting the meaning of the cards one by one, sticking to rigid rules.
* Cartomancy also depends on the state of mind of the subject of the reading - strong emotions tend to manifest themselves in the layout as future events.
No attempt should be made to read the future for a person, who is not reasonably calm and relaxed.

 Cartomancy and Fortune-Telling Tarot Cards
Historians, however, contend that modern-style cartomancy (fortune-telling with cards) did not become common until after the 1760s, and probably developed out of solitaire (or patience) card games, which started becoming popular at about the same time and included novelty fortune-telling aspects.
Their association with mysticism in popular culture began after 1781 when French author, Antoine Court de Gebelin, advanced a theory that the Major Arcana, or trump cards were survivals from the "Book of Thoth"-- a lost Egyptian hieroglyphic work which he believed contained a synthesis of all human knowledge.

 The SF Site Featured Review: Cartomancy
Similarly, "Cartomancy" -- the invented term means "map magic" -- concerns a voluptuous, scantily leather clad halfling and her ugly orc companion who tempt the newly elected Pontiff of blue-skinned elves with a marvelous map that, with a drop of blood, depicts whatever is going on in that part of the world.
In discussing "Cartomancy," for example, Gentle notes that the original inspiration was to see fantasy from the villain's point of view, an unconventional idea in the 90s, and that this eventually became the viewpoint of her novel: Grunts!
Indeed, the conceit of the "corridor of maps" -- based on something that actually exists in the Vatican, though no doubt lacking as powerful an ability to evoke the scenery -- isn't nearly as interesting or essential to this compendium as the commentary that follows each story.

 Cartomancy by Mary Gentle
The idea of cartomancy is used as a framing device for this collection of stories published between 1983 and 2004.
Unfortunately, this framing device does not enhance the volume, mainly because of the diversity of the other stories and the fact that there is nothing within them to link back to the idea of cartomancy.
The only other reference to divination is in 'The Tarot Dice', a story that contains characters which are precursors for those appearing in Gentle's novel '1610: A Sundial In A Grave'.
