Sure, if you pick up almost any book on Tarot, it's going to have some mystical nonsense in it, but it's also a tool for brainstorming and an inexpensive way to get a lot of cool art. Check out The Sceptic's Tarot if you're curious about non-supernatural usage of Tarot cards.

Also, some people have found it to be an aid for psychology, similar to Rorschach tests. I don't think this has been studied, though.

Using tarot to spark discussion and introspection in therapy has always worked great for me with young witchy clients who say "I don't know" to every question I ask them lol

For non-witchy but otherwise similar clients, I like to use adapted versions of Chuck Klosterman's 23 Questions

As someone who despises magical thinking: I think tarot art is fucking awesome
