So, I decided to sit down with my tarot deck today specifically thinking about love stuff. It’s been on my mind, you know? Not looking for magic answers, just some perspective, maybe shake things up a bit in my head.
First thing, I just grabbed my old deck, the one that feels right in my hands. Sat down at my table, cleared some space. Didn’t do anything fancy, no candles or anything today, just wanted to get straight to it. I shuffled the cards for a while, just letting my thoughts about relationships and stuff drift around. Focused on getting myself grounded.
My Questions for the Cards
I wasn’t using a book or anything. I just thought about what was actually bugging me or what I was curious about. My questions ended up being something like this:
- What’s the main energy I’m bringing into my love life right now?
- Is there something blocking me from connection that I’m not seeing?
- What kind of approach towards finding or nurturing love would actually serve me best at this moment?
- What do I really need from a partnership right now, even if I haven’t admitted it to myself?
Yeah, kept it pretty personal and focused on me and my current situation. Didn’t ask about specific people or timelines, just wanted to understand my own role and needs better.
Pulling the Cards
So, for each question, I pulled three cards. Just laid them out in a simple row. Didn’t do a complicated spread. For that first question about my energy, the cards felt kinda… intense. Not bad, just strong. Made me pause and think, okay, maybe I’m coming across stronger than I realize.
The ‘blockage’ question brought out a card that often points towards hanging onto the past. Yeah, that wasn’t exactly news, but seeing it there in the cards kind of hit different. It’s like, okay deck, I hear you, loud and clear.
For the ‘approach’ question, the cards seemed to suggest something about patience and maybe focusing inward first. Less ‘go get ’em’ and more ‘tend your own garden’. That resonated, honestly.
And the last one, about what I need? The cards pointed towards stability and open communication. Simple stuff, maybe, but sometimes you need the reminder laid out in front of you.
What I Took Away
Look, it wasn’t earth-shattering. The tarot didn’t tell me I’d meet someone tomorrow or anything like that. But going through the motions, asking my own specific questions, and seeing what came up? It helped. It gave me a different angle to look at things from.
It mainly confirmed some feelings I already had, but also poked at a couple of blind spots. That blockage card, for instance. Gotta chew on that one a bit more.
So yeah, that was my practice today with asking the tarot about love. Just me, my deck, and some real questions I had. Felt productive, in its own quiet way.
