Introspective Tarot

Found the spread on The Tarot Guide .  I asked my husband and had him shuffle the deck after I had. I wanted to include his energies, but felt it was important to ask for consent. Consent is important! My Perspective - The Star calm after the storm, hope, power of belief and positivity, heart & soul His Perspective - The Magician committing to a goal, eyes on the prize, integrity in check, masculine approach Foundations - Eight of Wands accelerated, passion, whirlwind romance Present State / Issues - Temperance (Reversed) unbalanced energy, center lost, impatience Likely Outcome - The Tower unexpected change, liberation, fresh start, storms to clear the air Introspection After reading up on the Star and Magician together, I get the sense that these two describe me and my husband really well. I tend to look at life with positivity and hope, putting my heart and soul into everything I do. My husband is a the type of person to make things happen if he thinks it's possible. I'm...

 I got this spread from backyardbanshee .  I wanted a quick spread before sleeping to get a bit of reflection before falling asleep. My anxiety is pretty bad when I'm trying to rest for the night. I did this last night and decided to check back this morning before work to really look over what the card say. I deserve rest. Show me how to enjoy more rest. Six of Wands: achievement, great triumph, optimism, pride Everything will be fine, I am at peace. Show me assurance from the universe. Two of Swords: crossroads, truce, compromise I have accomplished enough today. Show me a way to give thanks. The Sun: positivity, confidence, courage, epiphanies Tomorrow will be a great day for me. Show me something to look forward to. The Hierophant: guidance, rules & order, therapy Tomorrow has moments of joy, peace, and love. Show me how to show gratitude. Queen of Pentacles: stability, resourceful, pets, caretaking Tomorrow I will make more progress. Show me what it looks like. Five of...

From an idea from Theresa Reed, I wanted to continue my reading of my Celtic Spread for today by looking over the Major Arcana cards that appeared in my reading. The cards are selected by the order they were in during the Celtic Cross spread. CARD #1: Lesson THE HANGED MAN Surrender CARD #2: Current Position on Karmic Path TEMPERANCE Healing CARD #3: Direction Ahead on Karmic Path JUSTICE Personal Responsibility CARD #4, #5: Reflection THE STAR; THE FOOL Optimism; Courage Introspection I recently realized over the last few months that one of the big things I freak out about is control. I feel very overwhelmed when I feel out of control of things in my life. This lesson focused spread makes it clear that I can overcome this by surrendering. Learning to let go of control will lead to healing and help me take personal responsibility for my future. By using optimism and courage, my path in life may becoming even a little bit easier. Positive vibes to everyone! Tabitha

Before I start a reading, I like to reorder my deck. I do it suit by suit, then the major arcana. I shuffle each tiny stack and then shuffle them together. How do you explain the exact way the card moves through your hands? Not sure, so moving on. At the bottom of this post, I will add the photos of my written notes.   I find it easier to read someone's handwriting then a whole bunch of typed text, personally. I decided to do a Celtic Cross spread for my daily practice reading. I thought about where I am at this moment of my life and the plans I have for my move. I did a general read through with my own intuition, and then opened up No Questions Asked to look up the suggested meanings. Cards Drawn 1. The Hanged Man 2. Temperance 3. Six of Swords 4. King of Pentacles 5. Justice 6. Three of Swords 7. The Star 8. Nine of Swords 9. The Fool 10. Ten of Wands 1st Impressions 5 Major Arcanas (!) - additional spread & reading No cups - emotions are not present, could be good or bad Qu...

How I Got It Nothing special, honestly. I wanted a deck with different art, so I found this online on sale from Barnes and Noble . I've been into the visuals of moon and stars lately, which I'll go into more as I describe the artwork. The booklet was written by Jayne Wallace , and includes affirmations for each card. I don't know much about the author, but it seems she's pretty famous in celebrity circles. Artwork That artwork for this deck is done by Hannah Davies . It's a softer type of art than my other deck, with abstract backgrounds and small details added to the major arcana cards. I like the abstract work and the small details that include constellations or astrology symbols. I bought this deck purely for the artwork and the layout of the cards, including the word displayed. Interview Spread I will be using these questions as I draw and interpret: What kind of energy do you have? What are your strengths? What are your limits? What kind of readings do you pref...
