A Mathematical Formalization of Divination: Hybridizing Astrology and Tarot

This paper presents a mathematical formalization of divination by integrating two major systems: astrology and tarot. Astrology is modeled as a set of continuous variables determined by planetary positions, while tarot is treated as a discrete symbolic system with probabilistic selection. By combining the astrological horoscope vector with the symbolic draw of tarot cards, a hybrid model emerges that embodies both determinacy and chance, structure and randomness. The study demonstrates that divinatory practices, often dismissed as non-scientific, can be reinterpreted through formal logic and mathematics, revealing their dual nature as cultural practice and logical structure.
