Opposition

Because of the association of Tarot cards with fortune telling, some Christian groups such as The 700 Club and Focus on the Family oppose the use of Tarot cards as Satanic. Some Christians believe that the use of cards for divination purposes is forbidden by God (based on Bible verses such as Deuteronomy 18:10 and the incident in Acts 16:16-18); by extension, these Christians believe that no one should own Tarot cards. Use of Tarot cards is thought by some to be a means of demonic possession of those who use or even consult the cards.

The opposing end of this is a belief that you may cast lots to determine God's will, and that Tarot divination is a form of casting lots. This theory, however, is not theologically consistent with mainstream Bible interpretation.

A number of Tarot/Tarock game players have also opposed the wide spread marketing of Tarot cards for exclusive use in fortune telling activities, as they feel the Tarot card game has been misrepresented to the public at large.

Secular skeptics of the paranormal also express objections to "Tarot card readings" along with objections to psychics, astrology, and other claims of the supernatural, or claim that tarot readers commit fraud by cold reading.
