This here talkin’ ’bout them sevens in tarot, you know, them cards folks use. See, number seven, it’s kinda special. It’s like that seventh day, you know, when the good Lord, he rested. So, sevens, they got somethin’ to do with restin’ too, and maybe bein’ alone and thinkin’ things over, that “solitude”, yeah, that is.
Them sevens cards, they mean somethin’, like waitin’ for somethin’ to happen. Like you plant them seeds, you gotta wait for ’em to sprout. That’s what them sevens is like. You know somethin’s comin’, but you ain’t quite sure what. Makes you kinda antsy, like a cat watchin’ a mouse hole.
You see, after that number six, that’s all nice and calm, them sevens come along and stir things up. They make you want somethin’, make you dream. Like when you’re a young’un and you dream ’bout growin’ up and havin’ your own place. That’s the kind of wantin’ them sevens bring.
- Seven of Wands: This here card, it’s got a fella fightin’ off a bunch of sticks. Means you gotta stand your ground, even when things get tough. Like keepin’ them crows out of your cornfield. You gotta fight for what’s yours.
- Seven of Cups: Now this one, it’s all about choices. Lots of cups, all filled with different things. Some good, some not so good. Like pickin’ which jar of preserves to open. Gotta choose wisely, or you might end up with somethin’ you don’t like. This card, it tells you to think real hard ’bout what you want, ’cause you might just get it. It is a card about “choices”.
- Seven of Swords: This card, it’s a sneaky one. Shows a fella tiptoein’ away with some swords. Might mean someone’s bein’ dishonest, or maybe just runnin’ away from their troubles. Like a fox sneakin’ into the henhouse. Not always a good sign, this one. It means “dishonest” somehow.
- Seven of Pentacles: This one’s about hard work payin’ off. Shows a fella lookin’ at his plants, seein’ how much they’ve grown. Reminds you that good things come to those who wait, and work hard. Like tendin’ your garden, you gotta put in the work if you want a good harvest. It is a “hard work” card.
They say them sevens in tarot are all tied up with that Chariot card. That Chariot, it’s all about movin’ forward, goin’ somewhere new. So maybe them sevens are tellin’ you it’s time to get a move on, leave the past behind, and head towards somethin’ better. The “Chariot” is important.
And them cards, they got energy, like everything else. You gotta clean ’em every now and then, like cleanin’ your house. Keeps ’em workin’ right, keeps the bad stuff away. Otherwise, they might start tellin’ you things that ain’t true. These cards need “cleaning”, oh yeah, need.
See, these cards is not just paper and paint. They means something. Sevens in tarot, all of them cards, they means something, but specially, that number seven, like I was saying, it is special. It is about waiting and dreaming, also that “Yang” energy. It means you wait for something, and you will get it. But you need to be careful about what you want. Because you will get it.
Like I said, them sevens, they got a kinda magic to ’em. That “mystery”, maybe “spiritual” too. They make you think ’bout things you can’t see, things you can only feel. Like the wind, you can’t see it, but you know it’s there. That’s how them sevens are, they show you somethin’ that’s there, even if you can’t quite put your finger on it.
So, next time you see them sevens in tarot, remember what this old lady told you. They ain’t just pretty pictures, they’re tellin’ you somethin’ important. Somethin’ ’bout waitin’, somethin’ ’bout dreamin’, and somethin’ ’bout the choices you make. And remember to keep them cards clean, so they tell you the truth, the whole truth, and nothin’ but the truth.
That’s all I got to say ’bout them sevens. It’s a lot to think ’bout, ain’t it? But that’s okay. Sometimes it’s good to sit and think, let your mind wander a bit. Just like that seventh day, when the good Lord rested. Maybe that’s what them sevens are really tryin’ to tell us. To slow down, take a breath, and just be for a little while. Think about your “choices”, your “dreams”, and remember the “Chariot” will take you somewhere.
