Oh, this lunar sol tarot, it’s a card thing, yeah. People use it to see what’s gonna happen, like readin’ tea leaves, but with cards. These cards, they got all sorts of pictures on ’em. Some folks say these cards can tell you about your life, I don’t know.
They shuffle these lunar sol tarot cards, like playin’ cards, but you ain’t playin’ a game. Then they lay ’em out in patterns, like when you lay out your quilt squares. Every pattern, it’s got a different meanin’, they say. Each card’s got a story, and where it lands, that changes the story.
I saw some cards, the pictures is interesting. One called “The Moon,” it’s got a big ol’ moon on it, and some water, and some dogs or wolves howlin’. I think it is the lunar tarot, and some people say it is about secrets, things you don’t see clear. If it is about the secret, I think it is a good card, for who don’t want to know some secrets? ha?
Then there’s another one, “The Sun”, it’s like the opposite, all bright and sunny with sol tarot. They say that one’s about bein’ happy and successful, having good things in life. Everyone likes that one, course. Who don’t want some sunshine in their life, especially in those cloudy days?
Some people, they use these lunar sol tarot cards for every little thing. They draw a card to see if they should buy a new dress, or if they should go visit their sister. That’s a bit much, if you ask me. But hey, what do I know? I just think some things, you just gotta use your own good sense.
I heard there’s different ways to lay out these cards. Some folks just draw one card, for a quick answer. Others, they lay out a whole bunch, like ten or more. That’s a lot of cards to figure out, seems like. Like find a needle in the grass, very hard.
- One way is called a “three-card spread.” Sounds simple enough.
- One card for the past, one for the present, and one for the future.
- That makes sense, I reckon. Past, present, future, that’s how life goes.
But then there’s this other one, a big one, called the “Celtic Cross.” That’s the one with ten cards, all in a special pattern, like a cross with a circle around it. They are all lunar sol tarot. Each card’s got a special place, and it’s supposed to tell a big long story about your life. Like your life is a book and these cards are words, all together.
Some people say this lunar sol tarot is just for fun. Like readin’ your horoscope in the newspaper. But others, they take it real serious. They believe these cards can really tell the future, help them make big decisions. I think they are crazy, and how can they make big decisions by some cards?
They say you gotta ask the cards a question before you draw ’em. Like, “Will I find love?” or “Will I get that new job?” And I think the question is about money. They want to know, “Will I get rich?” ha, this is funny.
Then you gotta shuffle the cards real good, thinkin’ about your question. Some folks even knock on the deck three times, for good luck. And you need to be careful when you shuffle, for the lunar sol tarot is easy to be damaged.
Then you lay out the cards in the pattern, and you gotta look at each one real careful. You gotta think about what the picture means, and how it fits with the other cards. Some people know what the cards mean, and they can read lunar sol tarot easily.
There’s books about these lunar sol tarot cards, you know. Big thick books, with all the meanings of the cards, and all the different ways to lay ’em out. Seems like a lot of readin’ to me. I’d rather read a good storybook, or maybe the bible, somethin’ with a beginnin’ and an end. But these books will tell you how to read lunar sol tarot.
Some people, they read these cards for other people. They call themselves “tarot readers,” these people. They set up shop, maybe have a little table with a fancy cloth on it, and some candles. People come to them, ask their questions, and the reader lays out the cards and tells ’em what they see. And these people will charge you money for reading lunar sol tarot.
Now, I ain’t sayin’ there’s nothin’ to it. Maybe there is somethin’ to these lunar sol tarot cards. Maybe they do tap into somethin’ we don’t understand, somethin’ magical. I do not know, but maybe. My grandma, she used to read tea leaves. Said she could see things in the leaves, things that were gonna happen. She told me once I was gonna marry a tall man with dark hair, and I did. So maybe there’s somethin’ to it, these ways of seein’ the future.
But I still think you gotta use your own good sense. Don’t go makin’ big life decisions based on a deck of cards, or a cup of tea leaves, or anythin’ like that. You gotta think for yourself, make your own choices. That’s what life’s all about, ain’t it? Makin’ your own way, for better or for worse.
This lunar sol tarot, it’s interestin’, I’ll give you that. But it ain’t for me. I’d rather have a good cup of coffee and a nice chat with my neighbor. That’s better than any old cards, any day.
