Abstract
Poetry has the faculty to capture wisdom from the collective unconscious through the appropriation of archetypical images, symbols, metaphors, and elements that belong to mythology. These aspects are linked to performing in the daily activities and how they are aimed by imagination. A similar process occurs with the Tarot. Poetry and Tarot demand a level of understanding which goes beyond consciousness, and escapes the limits established by rationality. In this respect it is necessary to make a pact between intuition and creative reverie. The present study is focused on the analysis of Tarot ́s symbols that are present in Olga Orozco ́s poetry (Argentina, 1920-1999), specifically in Los juegos peligrosos; and in a particular way in the poem “Cartomancia”.
