Alright, so I decided to mess around with my tarot cards again the other day. Wasn’t feeling any specific big question, just wanted to see what came up if I tried mixing a couple of cards together, you know, like a ‘combo’.
Getting Started
First thing, I dug out my old deck. It’s seen better days, edges are a bit soft, but it feels right in my hands. Found myself a quiet corner, away from the usual noise. Just wanted some space to think for a minute.
I spent some time shuffling the cards. Didn’t do anything fancy, just mixed them up thoroughly. Overhand shuffles, pushing them around on the table, whatever felt right to get them good and random. I wasn’t really thinking about anything specific, just focusing on the feel of the cards moving through my hands.
Pulling the Cards
Once they felt ready, I just cut the deck and pulled two cards off the top. Didn’t plan it much more than that. Just two cards, side by side.
So, I flipped them over. Let’s see, I remember getting:
- One card that felt kinda slow, like waiting for something.
- Another one that seemed all about making a choice, like standing at a crossroads.
That was the combo for the day. Waiting and Choosing. Seemed a bit contradictory at first glance.
Figuring it Out
I just sat there looking at them for a while. Didn’t grab a book or anything. I tried to get a feel for how they worked together. The ‘waiting’ card felt heavy, patient but maybe a bit stuck. The ‘choice’ card felt more active, but maybe a bit uncertain about which way to go.
Putting them together, the combo kinda felt like… needing to make a decision while things are still developing or unfolding. Like, you can’t just sit back and wait forever, but you also can’t rush into a choice without seeing how things settle a bit first. It wasn’t about one negating the other, but more like they were describing the situation together.
It felt like a nudge, really. A reminder that sometimes you gotta be patient, yeah, but you also need to be ready to act when the time is right, not just drift along. You have to actively watch for the moment the ‘waiting’ part shifts enough for the ‘choice’ part to become clear.
So yeah, that was my little tarot combo session. Just laid ’em out, looked at ’em, and tried to feel what they were saying together. Nothing earth-shattering, but it gave me something solid to chew on for the rest of the day. Simple stuff, but sometimes that’s all you need.
