Trying Out Those Marriage Tarot Cards
So, I decided to give those marriage tarot cards a whirl the other day. Wasn’t expecting magic or anything, just curious, you know? Heard people talking about it, saw some decks online, and figured, why not? Got myself a basic deck, nothing fancy, just the standard pictures you see everywhere. Didn’t go to a reader; thought I’d just mess around with it myself first.
First thing, I just sat down at my kitchen table. Cleared off the breakfast stuff, shuffled the cards for a bit. Honestly, shuffling is kind of relaxing. Didn’t really know a specific ‘marriage spread,’ so I just decided to pull three cards. Thought process was simple: past, present, future. Seemed logical enough for figuring things out.
So I laid them out. Let me see if I remember…
- The first one I pulled… It had this picture of someone looking back at stuff, like old memories or something. Made me think about past relationships, the good and the bad bits. Felt pretty accurate, gotta say. Lots of baggage we all carry, right?
- The middle card, for the ‘present’… This one was confusing. Had a figure juggling things, trying to keep balance. That hit home. Felt like that’s exactly what life is sometimes, especially when you’re thinking about big commitments like marriage. Balancing your own needs, your partner’s, work, life… it’s a lot.
- And the third one, the ‘future’… This was the weirdest one. It showed a tower crumbling down. Not exactly the happy wedding picture I might have, foolishly, half-expected! Didn’t like that one much, felt a bit ominous.
What I Made of It All
Okay, so looking at those three cards together – the past reflections, the present juggling act, and the crumbling tower – wasn’t exactly reassuring for marriage prospects! My first thought was, “Great, this thing thinks it’s all going to fall apart.”
But then I sat with it a bit longer. Maybe the tower wasn’t about the marriage itself failing. Maybe it was about old ways of thinking needing to crumble? Like, you can’t go into something huge like marriage with unrealistic ideas or without dealing with your past stuff (that first card) and the current chaos (the second card). Maybe it meant a big change was needed before anything solid could be built. That felt a bit more constructive, less doom-and-gloom.
Honestly, I didn’t get a clear ‘yes, get married’ or ‘no, run away’ answer. And maybe that’s the point. It wasn’t like flipping a coin. It was more like holding up a weird mirror. The cards didn’t tell me the future, but they definitely made me stop and think about where I was coming from and what I was currently dealing with. That juggling card, especially, stuck with me. And the tower… well, it made me consider what really needs to change or be let go of.
So, yeah. That was my little experiment with marriage tarot cards. Didn’t solve everything, didn’t predict the lottery numbers. But it was an interesting way to spend an hour, just forcing myself to look at things from a different angle using those pictures as prompts. Probably won’t rely on it for major life decisions, but as a tool for thought? Wasn’t totally useless. Gave me something to chew on, that’s for sure.
