The Destiny Cards, Fate, Karma, and Free Will with Robert Lee Camp | Gateways to Awakening
Tue Feb 03 2026
In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Robert Lee Camp, leading authority on the ancient science of the cards and author of the best-selling book Love Cards and Cards of Your Destiny.
Robert has spent more than three decades researching, teaching, and translating this once-hidden system into a practical tool for modern life.Together, we explore what “destiny cards” actually are, why a standard deck of playing cards mirrors the calendar year with uncanny mathematical precision, and how this system works as a form of spiritual psychology that is both predictive and deeply revealing. Robert shares the lineage of the work through his teacher Arnie Lean, and traces the system back through historical sources such as Olney Richmond’s The Mystic Test Book, including the idea that the cards were used as an esoteric framework for understanding fate, karma, and human nature. Big thank you to our mutual friend, Jen Hill, for the introduction!
