Introspective Tarot

I was surprised at how this spread turned out, mostly because of the reversals. As I shuffled to get ready to pull the cards,  the Hierophant  jumped to the floor out of nowhere, so of course that was the first spot. During my continued shuffling, I must have turned the deck upside down. It's weird for me to get reversals as I make sure my cards are all in the same order before shuffling and pulling. I don't actively try to avoid reversals (subconsciously may be another story), so I was shocked when I looked at the spread. I had to stop myself from turning them around because I didn't want to miss an important message they may be trying to tell me.

We are going on a weekend trip to Salt Lake City to do some job interviews and apartment hunting this weekend. My anxiety is extremely high and negati...

This spread is to focus your mind and use suggestions to get through stressors for the day. It could also be used for someone who is new to tarot and learning how to read intuitively. background credit: msvr @ pexels.com Theme of the Day: This card may be able to tell you the best way to look at the day, what things may come up or what excitement the universe has in store for you. Support 1 & 2: These cards may be able to give you a few strategies to keep the theme on track, or maybe some ideas to turns things around if they end up negative. As someone who is learning how to use and interpret the cards with my intuition, some questions I find myself asking is: How did my day relate to the theme card? Did I use any of the support/advice from the lower cards? How did the cards not relate to my day? This would be a great spread to journal and keep track of as you learn.

I've had this spread on my 'to do' list for a while now. It's supposed to help you think about different ways to use your strengths in whatever situation you're asking about. I pulled the cards last night, but did not turn them over until this morning. I apologize for the terrible picture quality, my phone wasn't doing what I wanted it to do. The spread is by Evvie Marin from Interrobang Tarot . The visual (and all their work, to be honest) is very pleasing for me to look at. They have some really great spreads, as well. I love their website in relation to tarot! They also are a multimedia artist.

This spread combines the Past/Present/Future spread with the Body/Mind/Spirit  spread. I did this one early afternoon, and I wanted to think about what I wrote and saw before I posted to the blog. A lot of new experiences happened with this reading practice. QUESTION What do I need to know about pursuing my blog idea? I found this spread on  Sorted Soul . I used the Guilded Tarot deck. I'm not sure if the artwork helped me noticed new things in the reading or if I'm just getting better at trusting my intuition. I interpreted each card for each 'meaning', then I also grouped the cards in each category to interpret. One to One Meanings 1. NOW (Present + Body): Page of Wands new beginnings, creative endeavor, new seeds, tarot blog indication? 2. BELIEFS (Past + Spirit): Nine of Pentacles might lead to a cushion financially, part of my growth 3. HISTORY (Past + Body): Ten of Cups conclusion to goal, celebration, i did it! 4. IDEALS (Past + Mind): Six of Pentacles generosit...

 How I Got It I bought it today from Barnes and Noble while taking a 'healing' day. I didn't go into the store planning to buy anything, but after the last few days of feeling so bad (major depression episode, yikes), I wanted something fun. There were more oracle cards, but I'm not confident in working with them (yet?). I got these specifically cause of the artwork of the cards. this is Mama, who would not leave me alone the last few days she knows when i'm not in a good mental state which is why her name is Mama, lol Artwork The box is... bright. Bright and a little gaudy. I want to ignore that, along with the booklet, which is difficult to read and understand. The art, though, is bold and just a little off, in a good way! The cards were created by Ciro Marchetti . It's not my favorite visual but it's growing on me. 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 ...

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.
