Welcome to My journey

  Hello and welcome! 



This blog is dedicated to a personal journey through and exploration of the tarot, to last the entire year of 2021. I will be spending approximately 4 days with each card, studying various interpretations and meanings, as well as meditating with each card and carrying it with me during the time I am devoted to it. For this purpose I have chosen the Ryder Waite deck and while it is not my absolute favorite, it is the first tarot deck that was made, according to modern knowledge. Most other decks are somewhat based of rider Waite and the symbology is somewhat rich with in the deck, helping both the novice and experienced reader see many aspects of each card just by looking. I prefer decks that are more diverse as a whole, representing different ethnicities and orientations, but I do think this deck is a good base to start off and then one can expand upon others.

A bit about me:

I have been intuitively reading tarot since I was about 11, and my aunt and older brother both taught me basics about the cards, eg meanings of the suits, difference between major and minor arcana, how to pick up clues from soft focusing on the card, etc. Since that’s how I was taught, that’s how I read and I have always read people for what they need to hear, not necessarily what they want to hear, though I do my best to deliver the message in a way that is palatable and helpful. My goal in reading is always to offer some support from the universe and guidance for whom ever has entrusted me with the secrets of their life.


I started this journey because I wanted to have a deeper connection to each card so that I could have a wider base to draw from during readings. When you are blessed with certain psychic gifts, it can often feel like a curse until you accept them, and often times you push away things that engage those gifts. Tarot is one of those things that engages my gifts and I have always felt a certain intense energy with the cards that has never gone away. The feeling of needing to connect deeper to the cards has not subsided and so it is time for me to embark on a journey through the cards, devoted to better understanding them and how they can help me share the messages I receive daily. This journey will coincide with a year long devotional to Tripura Sundari or Lalita, a tantric Goddess of great power who truly created this world. She is present in the Sri Yantra, which many people know of and it can be found everywhere. 


As far as psychic stuff goes, I am a psychic intuitive and Empath, with the skills of ; clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience. I am a reiki master in two lineages, a high priestess of witchcraft, and an ordained minister. I am a 3 rd generation seer, as far as I know, though it may go back as far as 5 generations or more. 


I feel so blessed in sharing this journey and can’t wait to share it all with you

11: Justice

Image
The 11th card in the major arcana is Justice and within many clues are provided to its meaning and purpose in a reading.. let’s take a look.. Our initial glance at the card we sees woman dressed in red robes symbolizing connection with successfully manifesting in the material world, a crown signifying her authority both in spirit and material worlds. Justice is of course holding her scales symbolizing her part in karmic justice and the weighing of deeds, and her sword represents the clarity of vision and connection to intuition needed to weigh all things carefully. She sits on a chair between two pillars, with a red cloth hiding what is beyond her judgment. The two pillars are reminiscent of the High Priestess card, where the querent must earn the right to traverse beyond the boundaries of the known, into the realm of the teachings of the Goddess and esoteric mystery schools. The justice card is showing us that karma is coming around the corner. The law of balance and karma, what goes ...

16: The Tower

Image
The Tower card right after the Devil card always feels a little overwhelming! There is a good reason the Tower follows the Devil and why it, like the Devil is not at all as scary as it first seems to be…   On the card we see a giant tower being struck by a bolt of lightning which blows the giant crown shaped roof off of the tower and sets it ablaze. We see fire coming out from the top and the windows and a man and a woman falling out of the windows. They both have blue and red items of clothing on symbolizing material desires and intuitive connection. Their faces are filled with fear and surprise which makes sense considering the circumstance. One may ask why didn’t they just attempt to leave the tower if they had an idea a storm was coming, instead of possibly falling to their death as a result of an inevitable strike of lightning causing them to leap? If you look closely, you see there is no door on the tower. They had no way to leave, besides the window. These two built a tower ...

14: Temperance

Image
 Major Arcana 14 is Temperance. Such a truly perfect card to come after the death card! An angel blessing us with impartial waters of life, or something else? Let’s go! There is an awful lot going on in this card but the first thing that catches our eye is this seemingly divine figure pouring water between two golden cups. Dressed in a white gown with beautiful red wings, we see a theme that repeats itself over and over in this card. White being heavenly/holy/pure and red being material/carnal/passion, we recognize this being as a balance between spiritual and material aspects of reality/existence. With one foot in the water and one on land we see the same theme, material and spiritual repeated, and we can assume from this theme the two cups passing water back and forth also have to do with the importance of existing in the material and spiritual realms. For each realm gives us different perspectives and values that must be used simultaneously for us to transcend the disconnection ...
