Okay, so today I’m gonna yap about my daily tarot card pulls for Aquarius. Honestly, it’s just something I started doing for kicks, but it’s kinda become a weirdly comforting part of my routine. Lemme walk you through it.
The Setup: First things first, I gotta find a quiet spot. Usually, it’s my kitchen table after everyone’s gone to bed. Dim the lights, maybe light a candle if I’m feeling fancy. Then, I grab my tarot deck. It’s nothing special, just a mass-market Rider-Waite Smith deck I picked up years ago. I give it a good shuffle – like, a proper casino shuffle, not just some weak-sauce riffle. Gotta mix up those energies, ya know?
The Question: I don’t really ask a super specific question. Usually, it’s just something broad like, “What’s the vibe for today?” or “What should I focus on?” Sometimes, if I’m dealing with something particular, I might get a little more specific, but mostly, I keep it open-ended. I find it gives the cards more room to, like, talk to me, if that makes sense.
The Draw: I do a super simple one-card pull. Just cut the deck and flip over the top card. That’s it. No fancy spreads or anything. I figure, one card is enough to give me a general idea of what’s going on. I lay the card down and take a look. I take note of the imagery, the colors, the overall feel of the card. Does it feel positive, negative, neutral?
The Interpretation: This is where it gets interesting. I don’t just read the textbook definition of the card. I mean, I know the basic meanings, but I try to connect it to what’s actually happening in my life. For instance, if I pull the Queen of Swords, I don’t automatically think, “Oh, I’m gonna be a judgmental ice queen today.” I think, “Okay, where in my life do I need to be more direct and assertive? Where am I letting my emotions cloud my judgment?” I think about what’s been going on lately and what challenges I might face.
My Journaling (kinda): I don’t have a fancy journal or anything. I just use a note app on my phone. I jot down the card I pulled, a few keywords about its meaning, and then a little blurb about how it relates to my day. Like, “Pulled the Tower today. Stress at work, things falling apart. Remember to breathe and don’t overreact.” It’s mostly for my own reference, so it’s pretty messy and stream-of-consciousness. But it helps me track patterns and see how the cards play out over time.
The Outcome: Does it always come true? Nah, not really. Sometimes the card is spot-on, and I’m like, “Whoa, the tarot is magic!” Other times, it’s totally off base, and I just shrug and move on. The point isn’t to predict the future or anything. It’s more about getting a different perspective on my life and making more conscious choices. It’s like having a little chat with myself, but with pretty pictures.
Why I Keep Doing It: Honestly, it’s just a nice way to start the day. It forces me to slow down for a few minutes and think about what’s important. Plus, it’s kinda fun! Even if it’s all just in my head, it’s a creative outlet and a way to connect with myself. And hey, if it gives me a little bit of guidance along the way, that’s just a bonus.
So, that’s my daily tarot routine. Nothing fancy, nothing groundbreaking, but it works for me. Maybe you should try it sometime. Who knows, you might surprise yourself.
