The Importance of a Significator in Todays Tarot

Based upon this idea is there even a reason to continue using a significator today? I believe there is. But, not in the sense that we use it today. No I believe instead of illuminating the significator all together what needs to be done is to change its use and purpose. I believe that instead of just not dealing the significator we should at the beginning of each reading before the question is asked shuffle the cards and pull a significator card to represent the seeker. We should then look at how this card represents the seeker. What is it about the seeker that this card is trying to tell us? Once we know whom the seeker is, we can return the card to the deck and reshuffle for the question at hand. Keeping in mind always who the tarot believes the seeker to be at this moment in time and how that reflects with the question and spread at hand.

Now that we have looked at the Significator in all its possibilities I hope that you better understand the use of this important card and how it can be used while allowing for an active participation of the seeker in their own lives. If you choice to try my suggestion on the use of the significator please let us know on the discussion board how it worked for you.
