Okay, so yesterday, I did something a bit different from what I usually do. I got this tarot deck, the “Artist’s Inner Vision” one. It’s got these really cool, trippy pictures, and I was like, “Why not give it a shot?” I’ve never really done a tarot reading before, but I was feeling a little lost and thought it could be fun, maybe even helpful. Plus, I’m all about trying new things, you know?
First, I tried to clear my head. I sat down, took some deep breaths, and just tried to chill out. No crazy rituals or anything, just trying to be in the moment. Then, I shuffled the cards. I’m not gonna lie, I don’t know if I did it “right,” but I just mixed them up good, thinking about what I wanted to ask. The big question on my mind was about my creative projects. I’ve been feeling stuck, like I’m in a rut.
I decided to go for a simple three-card spread. I think it’s supposed to represent the past, present, and future, or something like that. Anyway, I laid out three cards face down. I figured, no peeking! That’s cheating. I flipped them over one by one.
- The first card was this one with a figure kind of floating in space, surrounded by stars. It looked peaceful, but also a bit lonely. I took it to mean that maybe I’ve been too isolated in my creative process. I spend a lot of time alone, which I usually like, but it made me think I need to collaborate or connect with other people more.
- The second card showed this chaotic scene with lots of colors and shapes swirling around. It felt overwhelming, just like my current situation! I’ve got so many ideas and projects going on that it’s hard to focus. This card was like a wake-up call to simplify things and maybe just pick one or two things to really concentrate on.
- The third card, the “future” one, was super interesting. It had this image of a seed sprouting into a plant, reaching towards the sun. That felt really hopeful! It made me think that if I just keep working at it, even if it’s just a little bit each day, my efforts will grow into something amazing.
After I looked at all the cards, I just sat there for a while, thinking about what they could mean. I didn’t write anything down at first. I just let the images and my thoughts sink in. I mean, I am a visual person, and also, sometimes I feel like writing things down right away can mess with the flow, you know? Just take the time to really process before writing something down.
Later, I grabbed my journal and jotted down some notes. Nothing too formal, just some keywords and phrases that came to mind. I also sketched the cards, just rough outlines, to help me remember them. It felt good to get it all out of my head and onto paper.
My Thoughts After the Reading
Honestly, the whole experience was pretty cool. It wasn’t like some magic spell or anything, but it did help me see things from a different perspective. I realized I’ve been pushing myself too hard, trying to do too much at once. This whole tarot thing made me think about my goals and how I’m going after them. I still don’t know exactly what I’m going to do next, but I feel a little more focused, a little more hopeful. Maybe I’ll do another reading sometime, or maybe I’ll just keep this in mind as I work on my projects. Who knows! It’s all a journey, right?
