Alright, so today, I’m diving into something a bit different – the Halloween Tarot. I’ve always been a bit curious about tarot, but I never really got around to trying it out myself. I figured, why not give it a shot, especially with a spooky-themed deck? So, I grabbed the Halloween Tarot deck and got started.
First off, I gotta say, the artwork on these cards is pretty wild. It’s all in this cool, vintage Halloween style with pumpkins, black cats, bats, and all that jazz. It definitely sets a fun, creepy vibe. I spent some time just flipping through the deck, getting a feel for the cards and admiring the illustrations. I felt like a kid again, digging through a box of old Halloween decorations.
Then, I decided to actually try a reading. Now, I’m a total newbie at this, so I kept it simple. I followed the little booklet that came with the deck. It explains the meanings of each card and suggests a few basic spreads.
I shuffled the cards, thinking about a general question I had: “What’s the energy around me right now?” It’s vague, yeah, but I just wanted to see what would happen. Then, I laid out three cards in a row – past, present, and future.
- Past: The card I got was “The Tower,” which looked pretty ominous, with a lightning bolt striking a tower. The booklet said it can mean sudden change or upheaval. Made me think about some recent challenges I’ve been dealing with. Okay, pretty accurate so far.
- Present: Next up was the “Nine of Bats,” showing a worried-looking figure surrounded by bats. Apparently, this can represent anxiety or fear. Yeah, I’ve definitely been feeling stressed lately, so that resonated.
- Future: Finally, I drew “The Star,” a more hopeful card with a figure pouring water under a starry sky. The book says it symbolizes hope, inspiration, and guidance. That was a relief after the first two! Maybe things are looking up.
I sat there for a while, staring at the cards and thinking about what it all meant. It was kinda surprising how much the cards seemed to reflect my current situation, even though I know it’s all open to interpretation. I even took a picture of the spread to save on my phone. It was kind of fun, like a little puzzle to figure out. I did not expect to see that the results are so accurate to me!
Honestly, the whole experience was more interesting than I expected. It’s not like I suddenly believe in fortune-telling, but it was a cool way to reflect on things and maybe get a slightly different perspective. Plus, the Halloween theme made it extra fun. I can see why people get into tarot. It’s like a mini-adventure for your brain. I might try it again sometime, maybe with a different spread or a more specific question. We’ll see!
