When Your Tarot (or oracle) Reading Makes NO SENSE – Try THIS…

How to Read Tarot Cards / /

You’ve been here before. You ask a question, pull a card and….it doesn’t really make sense.

Even though I’ve done thousands of readings, this still happens to me ALL THE TIME!

So I’m going to share my process for what I do when I get a card that makes absolutely NO sense whatsoever.

But first a story….it’s a story about a festival, some very spiritual people and a big red tent. Unfortunately there’s no sex or nudity but there IS a whole bunch of drugs….

So in a nutshell, my process for decoding ANY Tarot or oracle card that doesn’t make sense is this:

First, I explore WHY the card is confusing, nonsensical or just plain annoying. This alone can sometimes lead to some big epiphanies and insights! In the above video, I was irritated by the card’s beauty and magical appearance because it didn’t reflect how I was feeling and it didn’t seem to offer any solutions (at first).

Second, I notice which symbol or aspect of the card I’m most drawn to (in the example I gave in the video, it was the pearl in the oyster shell). I then explore what that symbol means to me and whether it has a message for me about my current question.

Third, I explore some of the other things on the card like it’s number, various words, colours or characters. Sometimes this feels a bit like meandering along a winding path with little side paths that lead nowhere. That’s okay. Some of these side paths may lead somewhere important – you never know until you try.

In my case, I explored the number on my oracle card (39) by adding it together (12) and finding the corresponding Tarot card (The Hanged Man) and then adding that number again (3) to get The Empress. It was through exploring these two Tarot cards that I had some interesting insights.

Tell me what you think! When was the last time you got a card that make absolutely NO SENSE? What card was it?

Happy Tarot Reading!

September Tarot Forecast!

Weekly Tarot Forecast Videos / /

l don’t usually do monthly forecasts, but I thought I’d mix things up and do something a bit different. September is one of my favourite “fresh” months, like January, so I felt called to pull some cards and get some insights into the energies of the month ahead and get clear on what tools and approaches will be most helpful for us….

*And if you don’t have time to watch this whole video, I’ve provided a quick-read written version below 🙂
The Tarot deck I’m using is the Giant Rider Waite Tarot.

I began by looking at all the 9’s (because September is the 9th month and our year – 2025 – also adds up to 9).

The Hermit:
-nurture your relationship with your spiritual self
-move inward and connect with your inner wisdom
-bring back that wisdom and USE IT out in the world
*There will be no meaningful progress without doing this step of moving inward and connecting with your inner self (soul, higher self, spirit, etc)

9 of Pentacles:
-prioritize leisure time
-slow down
-do a 5 senses check-in

9 of Swords:
-manage anxiety
-get out of head and into body
-don’t always listen to your mind!

9 of Cups:
-achievements are best when you can share them with others
-avoid isolating yourself
-share the love
-challenge yourself to become more open with others

9 of Wands:
-set boundaries
-protect your energy
-challenge yourself to set boundaries while maintaining connection with others

I then randomly drew 3 cards….

7 of Pentacles:
-be patient this month!
-nurture what you want to grow in your life
-practice tending to something and caring for it

Knight of Wands:
-take inspired ACTION this month!
-have a goal or focus
-clarity comes from action
*The Hermit is about going inward to connect with inner wisdom and then the Knight of Wands is about taking your wisdom, ideas, insights and acting on them.

5 of Cups:
-don’t dwell on what sucks right now
-all is not lost!!!!!
-look at the “negative” but focus on the positive

I hope you find this reading helpful for your month ahead!
Thanks for watching/reading – have a beautiful September ♄
xoxo

What Tarot Says About YOUR Age! 2.0

Tarot Journalling / /

Did you know that your age unlocks a bunch of juicy Tarot secrets about the lessons, themes and gifts of your current year?

Join me as I take you on a wild, Tarot journalling journey to discover what you’re really meant to be focusing on in your current age-year!!! Grab a pen and notebook OR grab your FREE copy of my Tarot journalling worksheets and let’s get started….

***I’ve created a fun worksheet just for this video! Download it right HERE***

STEP ONE:

How old are you? I’m 43.

Okay, now add up the numbers in your age until you get ONE, single digit number. For me, that’s number 7 (4 + 3 = 7).

STEP TWO:

Now, find the Major Arcana card in your Tarot deck that corresponds to that number. Since I got #7, I’m going to pull out The Chariot.

Your Major Arcana card depicts the main theme or general vibe of your current year. Since I got The Chariot, it shows that my 43rd year has been all about progress, momentum and moving forward.

Take a look at your Major Arcana card – what are the keywords you associate with it? What’s it all about? How has it shown up so far in your current age-year?

Personally, I’ve experienced The Chariot as a series of small successes and forward momentum in many areas of my life, particularly on issues that I’ve been stuck in for a while, like lower back issues, gut problems and blocked creativity (all sacral chakra stuff….hmmmm).

STEP THREE:

Okay, now here’s where things get really interesting… find the four Minor Arcana cards that correspond to your number. For me, that’s all the 7’s – Seven of Pentacles, Swords, Cups and Wands.

These Minor Arcana cards depict the areas of your life that you’ll be experiencing the most growth in during your current age. “Growth” can be experienced as lessons, breakthroughs, success, challenges or simply just “doing the work” in a particular area.

I like to think of the Minors as lessons I’m trying to master.

Have a look at your 4 Minor Arcana cards – what lesson does each card present? what areas of your life do they show up in? What situations, challenges or opportunities do you feel they stand for? How are you “working through” each card’s lessons at your current age?

Here’s what I wrote for all my cards:
7 of Pentacles – patience and nurturing something – I’ve had to be patient while treating both a long standing gut issue and lower back issue
7 of Swords – authenticity and honesty – I’ve gotten better at not hiding my true self in social interactions with others
7 of Cups – choosing – I’m still working on this one! I can get very overwhelmed by all my creative ideas for new projects and courses
7 of Wands – assertiveness – I’ve had numerous opportunities to practice being assertive in business, my relationship, and in a very specific interaction with my bank!

EXTRA STUFF:

*Fun Tip: you can always look at your cards for your last year (prior age) or next year (I’ll be 44 soon, which will be an 8 year for me!) – this will give you an even more expanded perspective on how these cards operate in your life.

**If your age first adds up to 10 (before you further condense it to just ONE number), you’re extra lucky!!! This means you actually have two sets of cards!!! You’re going to want to look at all the 10’s (Wheel of Fortune, and all the minor 10’s) AND the 1’s (The Magician and all the Aces)….this shows that your year will be a transition year where you’ll be wrapping many things up and starting new projects and new directions.

Journalling Questions:

Ask these questions for each card…

♄ What area(s) of your life does this card show up in? And how? (Can you connect it to an experience, challenge or opportunity you’ve had recently, in your current age?)

♄ How are you “working through” each card’s lessons at your current age?
