3/3 Five Card Spread with New Tarot Deck: Tarot of the Divine

-


 


Five card spread, not thinking of any question in particular but I have been working all day so likely big picture/book project/ long-term work on my mind (surprise).


Present / Near Past / Near Future = Nine of Wands / Five of Coins / Four of Coins

I'm tired/fatigued from hustling and overwork. Recent past was being outside/at very margins of academia just trying to make a living and get projects going while being really demoralized and feeling really alone in a lot of ways. Even now when conditions are much better, I am still holding on/hoarding with that fear of instability and insecurity (four of coins) that I can let go of now. 


Unseen forces / Possible future = The World / King of Wands

This is the second World card I've pulled in three days (one card pull on Monday). I can and should remember that I am not alone, I am being supported by people and circumstances. I can and do have community and others I am supporting/that support me. This is not a solo endeavor, but a mutual endeavor. Harnessing that collective energy, I can step into leadership and visionary roles, with plenty of support and guidance. I don't need to hoard knowledge or resources for myself, but I can think expansively to share them out for the benefit of all of us.

8/5/20: Seven of Pentacles

I've lost track of the days and have been slack on the tarot class because I am drowning in work- and yet don't feel like I've done any work at all. Feeling like I'm operating in panic / scarcity mode and not able to focus on one thing, because everything is pulling me at once. This feels like a time of a lot of possibility and growth, and also I am scared of making the wrong decisions and messing this up. I need to remember to draw on Seven of Pentacles energy to be aware of what needs to be protected (my time, my writing, my relationships) and what I can let go of hoarding (fear of scarcity, loss).

The Fool's Journey

The Fool begins her journey meeting The Magician.  From the magician she learns about communing powerfully with the natural world, and drawing on relationships to nature and the earth to build relationships with self. Meeting the Magician is a reminder that there is beauty and things unknown in the world- things that cannot be explained by logic/rules. The Fool then meets The High Priestess , who is more reserved. From the openness of the Magician, we go to the more withdrawn or wary High Priestess, who advises one to intuit your own knowledge, balanced by outside knowledge. She can be a bit black and white at times, but tries to find fairness and balance of knowledge. The Empress is a formidable figure, who shows the Fool what growing up into Femme power can really look like. The Empress takes no shit, but rules with love. The Emperor is intimidating too, with a hard-set face and a colder demeanor. From the Emperor the Fool learns how to set hard boundaries, to be cold or cl

Personal Card: The Lovers

My birth card: The Lovers Unity between heart and mind professional goals and personal dreams - find the balance this life path i am on is about healing my relationships to family, to self, friends, lovers need to work on making heart-centered choices  how do i trust myself to do the right things? Free write about what I want to do with this course: I'm interested in deepening my practice in tarot - to move from still relying on other guides to trusting myself and my own interpretations. I don't think that tarot can predict the future- it is a useful tool for us to check in with ourselves and to make sense of threads or events- to create a narrative that we can use to course-correct or to help begin taking more decisive actions. I think tarot can be a good tool of gathering information by/for yourself, especially at times of crisis or change when things don't feel clear cut or are just plain confusing. It is like astrology in this way, but perhaps works at an even more pers
