Well it looks like an intense week is in store for us! At least these cards are super pretty, right? The deck I’m using here is the Crystal Visions Tarot…
If you’re in the Montreal area, come see me at The Inaugural Love & Light Tarot Reading Marathon on Friday, Sept 21st. There will be tons of awesome Tarot people, free readings, workshops and presentations. I will be teaching a workshop on Tarot symbols and doing a talk about discovering your “secret self” with Tarot. For more details and to buy tickets: www.lightandloveproductions.com/
Last night I was lying in bed unable to fall asleep (typical!) and I started thinking about my age. I recently turned 37.
At first I thought I’mthirty seven already! Mygodwhathaveidonewithmylife?
Then I thought when I’m 80 I’ll look back and think it’s dumb that I worried about being an underachiever at age 37.
Then I thought I probably won’t make it to 80 because of chemicals and stuff.
Then I decided to stop thinking and just add up the numbers in my age because doing simple math in my head at 2am calms me down.
Housewives Tarot
So when I added up the numbers in my present age I got number 10. Then I started thinking about all the 10’s in Tarot – 10 of Pentacles (yay!), 10 of Swords (shit!), 10 of Cups (awww!), 10 of Wands (ugh!) and then finally the Wheel of Fortune.
My theory is that these cards predict the kind of experiences, opportunities and challenges that will present themselves in my 37th year.
How do I know this? Because when I added up last years age (36), I got number 9…. 9 of Pentacles, 9 of Swords, 9 of Cups, 9 of Wands and The Hermit all accurately summed up my past year and the things I’ve experienced.
I won’t bore you with the details. You’re welcome! But it was enlightening and gave me something to ponder as I lay in bed.
So give it a go. Add up the numbers in your age and study the Tarot cards that correspond with that number. You should have one Major Arcana and four Minors.
*If your age adds up to 10, like mine does (37 = 3 + 7 = 10) study all the 10's in your Tarot deck AND all the 1's. Because 10, when broken down, adds up to 1 - which means this year will be a big one for you! Not only will you be completing things (10 represents completion) but you'll be starting new things (as 1 represents new beginnings).
I want to know...what number does your age add up to? Do you see some parallels between the Tarot card of that number and your current life events? Share if you want to! 🙂
For this week’s reading I’m using the Robin Wood Tarot (a classic!)…
Notice what card you’re most drawn to. Then, notice what symbol/object/figure captures your attention first. What does that symbol mean to you? Does it relate to your life?
Last weeks Tarot party was so much fun (plus I screwed up and broadcasted on the wrong Facebook page which resulted in some people missing out)…. so I’ve decided to do it all again!
This Tuesday (Aug 28) at 12 noon (PST) I’m throwing a Tarot party via Facebook Live, right over here.
This time I’m going to just dive right into the one card readings and skip the chit chat – so if you’d like a one card reading, please come 🙂 Heads up – I won’t be able to give everyone a reading but I’ll try to give as many as I can in one hour.
If you’ve never taken part in a Facebook Live event before, here’s how it works: at 12 noon PST on Tuesday, hop on over to this page – you’ll see me live on video blabbing away about Tarot. You’ll be able to interact with me via the comments so you can ask questions, etc.
You canRSVPto this event right here. And if you can’t be there live, the video replay will stay on the event page for at least a few days after, so you’ll be able to watch at your leisure.
Summer is a great time to do a mid-year check in! Where are you at? Where are you going? What do you need to focus on right now?
If you’re like me you were so busy being sick over New Years that you forgot to have any resolutions. Then maybe you set a couple of goals in February but can’t for the life of you remember what they were. It’s okay. This spread will fix everything 🙂
 1. Card to Represent YOU - This card should be randomly chosen (as opposed to consciously choosing a card) and it represents where you're at right now.
2. Let go of... - This is what you need to release and let go of.
3. Replace it with... - This card tells you how you can let go and what you need to bring into your life.
4. Strongest Influence - What is having the strongest effect on you right now. It might be a person, belief, energy, etc. This can also represent energies and opportunities for you to tap into.
5. Message from Spirit Guides - What your Higher Self and Spirit Guides want you to know and understand.
6. Where to Direct Your Energy - What to focus on, where to put your attention and/or the area of your life that needs the most attention right now.
7. Aspect of Self to Heal & Grow - This is kind of similar to card #6. It shows you what parts of yourself you need to be tapping into and working with.
I want to know!
I'm super nosy and I want to know what card you got in position #6 - where will you be putting your energy from now on? Feel free to share in the comments below 🙂
So this Friday (Aug 17th) at 12 noon (PST) I’m throwing a Tarot party via Facebook Live, over on my Facebook page.
Join me for some fun Tarot chit chat while we discuss hot new Tarot decks and fun Tarot exercises. I’ll be doing free one card Tarot readings for anyone who wants one, so you don’t want to miss it!
If you’ve never taken part in a Facebook Live event before, here’s how it works: at 12 noon PST on Friday, hop on over to my Facebook page – you’ll see me live on video blabbing away about Tarot. You’ll be able to interact with me via the comments so you can ask questions, etc.
