What tarot card/s do you consider negative? Only positive answers please.?!
Question: Hello
When I look at a deck of tarot, I find that all of the cards are positive, even the ones traditionally deemed as negative.
To me they all have the potential to teach & therefore all of positive value.
What's your view?
& which individual card/s do you feel are not that nice?

I agree that most cards have a positive side and I don't think any of them are actually bad. Although there are a few that I dread in a reading especially if it's for someone else and they have the Devil, Death or The Tower. Although I think all of those cards show positive things in one way or another. I'm not sure that I have a favorite card, I like the 4 of wands and the high priestess. I really dislike seeing the Tower in my own readings, if it is showing a future position. I'm already aware of all my towers from the past so I'm OK with it then.
I dont have a specific view on then weather their positive of negative, but a few people i know always say that if you were to use tarot cards to predic certain things you jinx yourself. So from what they say i find it more of a superstition.
Alot of the cards can be deemed as either positive or negative.
Depends on the persons view, viewing them ....
I agree. I look at them in terms of "challenges," not negatives. Sometimes things need to be torn down in order to rebuild something better. Sometimes we need to feel pain in order to learn compassion or strength. For gloom and doom, major problems, or that sort of thing, I look at the entire reading, not just one card. The Devil is probably the most negative, in my readings. It often indicates that someone is lying to someone else, is using them for sex, can't be trusted, etc.
I personally don't care for The Devil & The Tower of the major cards. The 9 of swords isn't good for me or the 7 of swords,which usually means that someone is lying or sneaking around behind my back.
On a higher level, everything is positive and meant to aid our growth. Even things that seem horrible to our human eyes aid future growth we can't see on a spiritual level. Thus all that seems negative will eventually become positive. This a Universe of Light, despite fleeting moments of darkness.
For me, all cards hold both positive and negative aspects. Some cards have more of one than the other, but then there is the card when it shows up reversed.
A card that tend to be more positive will now be more negative.
Much of what each card has to tell in a reading comes from what the issue is in the reading and what other cards come up.
I can have a reversed card, and to some the initial thought is that it will express the down side or lacking in some way, yet for me the card often expresses a need for attention or gives direction to what can be done to improve the situation.
In a nutshell, it is a fine balance of the positive and negative, regardless of position.
I feel that to find a distinct difference, one might look at the overall of a reading.
