When the Tarot Surprises You…

Sometimes when I do a Tarot reading, the client gets really surprised.

For example, one client asked, “What do I need to do to be happy?”

For this reading, I did a one card spread.

The card was the moon inverted. As I do a reading, intuition guides me to express ideas. I said, “The card says, ‘Don’t believe in all the garbage you think. They’re illusions.’”

“Really?” the client responded.

“Is there some way that this reading connects with you?” I asked.

“Well … I don’t talk about this much. But I really beat myself up emotionally,” the client responded.

“How does that look?”

“I keep thinking what a slob I am. That I’m lazy. That I don’t know what to do, and I’m going to be out on the street.”

I kept silent to see if the client had anything else to add.

“That’s about it,” the client said.

“That’s a lot to carry,” I replied.

The client nodded.

“So, do you think this Tarot reading applies?” I asked.

“‘Don’t believe in all the garbage you think. They’re illusions.’ … I think the Tarot is telling me something profound,” the client said.

The Tarot can, at times, shake us up and give us a new perspective.

Sometimes, we don’t want to hear it.

But other times, the guidance comes in like a breath of fresh air.

We need to make space for the guidance. Sometimes, the Tarot’s guidance is startling, and we don’t understand the guidance right away. It may not resonate until a week later—perhaps, even a month.

An important part of the process is to stay open and keep your eyes and ears open to what happens around you after the Tarot reading. Look for connections. Also … just breathe and let the connections just rise in your intuitive thoughts and feelings.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
