SIR – Further to Mr R Halliday’s letter in reply to mine (T&A, June 18), I didn’t say the tarot cards themselves were evil, I merely reported my experience as a result of accepting the cards from friends.

I was as sceptical as Mr Halliday and can’t explain what it was I felt. I know I just wanted to be rid of them as quickly as possible.

Evil, any evil, comes from the Devil. He is rampant in our world, ready to tempt us and exploit our weaknesses. People who dabble in the Occult are using his rather more obvious tools.

All I’m saying is, beware. Not believing in something doesn’t make it less true.
