Okay, so today I’m diving into something a bit different – my experience with a “three of hearts” tarot spread. It’s not your typical tarot thing, but I stumbled upon it and figured, “Why not give it a shot?”
Getting Started: The Vibe Check
First things first, I set the mood. Dimmed the lights, lit a candle (vanilla scented, because why not?), and grabbed my trusty Rider-Waite deck. I spent a couple of minutes just shuffling and centering myself. Gotta clear out the mental clutter, you know?
The Spread: Simple and Sweet (or So I Thought)
This “three of hearts” spread is super basic: past, present, and future. That’s it. I decided to focus my question on a creative project I’ve been putting off. Something like: What’s the deal with this project? What’s holding me back? And what’s gonna happen if I actually buckle down and finish it?
Card One: The Past – 5 of Cups (Ugh)
Okay, so the first card I drew for the “past” position was the 5 of Cups. Not exactly a party. This card screams regret, loss, dwelling on what’s gone wrong. In the context of my project, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I realized I’ve been hung up on past failures with similar projects. Like, “Oh, I tried this before and it flopped, so why bother now?” It’s that little voice in my head that’s been sabotaging me.
Card Two: The Present – The Hermit (Interesting…)
Next up, for the “present,” I got The Hermit. At first, I was like, “Great, more isolation.” But then I dug a little deeper. The Hermit is about introspection, finding wisdom within yourself. This tells me I’m currently in a phase where I need to disconnect from external distractions and really figure out what I want from this project. It’s a call to get clear on my vision before I start charging ahead.
Card Three: The Future – 2 of Wands (Potential!)
Finally, for the “future” position, I pulled the 2 of Wands. This card is all about planning, making decisions, and seeing possibilities. It suggests that if I can overcome my past baggage (5 of Cups) and tap into my inner wisdom (The Hermit), I’ll be in a strong position to bring this project to life. It’s not a guarantee of success, but it’s a solid indication that things are looking up.
Putting it All Together: The “Aha!” Moment
So, the whole spread paints a picture: I’ve been stuck in the past, letting past failures hold me back. Right now, I need to take some time for myself, figure out my goals, and then I’ll be able to move forward with confidence. It’s like the tarot cards are saying, “Dude, get your head out of your butt and just do it!”
My Takeaway: Time to Get Real
Honestly, this simple “three of hearts” spread was surprisingly insightful. It confirmed a lot of what I already knew deep down, but it put it all into perspective. It’s time to stop making excuses and start taking action. I’m gonna carve out some time this week to really focus on this project, and hopefully, I’ll have something to show for it soon.
Would I Recommend It?
Yeah, I would! It’s quick, easy, and a good way to get a general overview of a situation. It’s not going to give you all the answers, but it can definitely point you in the right direction.
Final Thoughts
Tarot, for me, is a tool for self-reflection. It’s not about predicting the future, but about understanding yourself better. And today, the “three of hearts” helped me do just that. Now, time to go make some magic happen!
